Reviews for Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire Official Trainer's Guide

1. Programming in Ruby...

   Rated 1 out of 5 stars, April 12th, 2009

   The real question is why is this listed under 'Books > Computing & Internet > Programming > Languages > Ruby'?
   
   Still, made me laugh a bit.

2. No no no

   A terrible walkthrough guide that i would not recommend to any one. The blatant lack of thought into structure and material to be included in this guide really shows. It is a shame as i had the Brady Games guide to Final Fantasy VII which was truly excellent. Now i will be much more cautious when buying Brady Games books. Try elsewhere!

3. pokemon ruby trainers guide

   what can i say the auther claims it to be a COMPLETE walkthrough though it deos not follow the game through and is not very specific e.g(work you way throu this cave to reach the other side) it has no evolution chart and only a pokemon library wich only tells you size and type of the pokemon including a picture that you need a magnafiing glass to see.

   in short, dont buy this, get primas guide!

4. Nice cover, but just the basics inside.....

   when i purchased the new pokemon shappire game i straight away bought this walkthrough. It had a cool cover and i flicked through it quickly and it seemed alright. when i got home the cover said "Find the pokemon info you need--fast!" so i searched through it only to find a pokemon libary which showed a tiny picture of each pokemon and its height and all the useless info. i for one was very disapointed.I hoped that it would show what moves each pokemon could learn but there was nothing.The guide also didn't tell where to find the pokemon but only the "notable pokemon" were, but for some reason i never came across. overall i was very dissapointed with this guide. as before (for pokemon gold and silver) i purchaced a prima guide which this guide never near came to the helpfulness and standard of it.the 2 stars where for the full colour maps given and also a list of what pokemon each trainer had...but still, i found a few mistakes within that. showing the wrong poke'mon overall. But anyway this guide really is stright in and stright out and found this really not that useful.

5. Catch them all? Not quit!

   This is not a complete guide as the author claims to be. In face, i am not so sure it is a guide! It does follow the game through, a walkthrough with colored maps. Hence the two star rating. But a trainer's guide? No detailed pokedex, (It does has pokemon library at the back but it tells you nothing the in game pokedex doesn't.). No Move Listing. No Item listing. No TM & HM Chart. No marking of items on the map. No evolution chart. No area listing of pokemon. Fair enough, the game has improved a lot on details within the game itself, however, a complete guide should at least have some if not all of them? Worst of all, i see no comparison between the Ruby and Sapphire Version at all (except the color that is). Marcus man, Game Over!
