This game was a huge chunk of my childhood. Exploring the world, getting the best score in the dance mini game and getting everyone in the cove as angry as possible. Just messing around with characters and settings was really fun. The story was weirdly very interesting, not in terms of character development or that stuff, but just the weird plot line and the kind of fun cheesiness. Got to revisit that battle tournament because I remember that being IMPOSSIBLE and I have yet to finish. And does anyone else feel the battle system is kind of similar to Pokken? In the 3d space? Also this game me really love Chandelure for some reason, probably his weird voice, and it's a weird coincidence that he also got into Pokken. Maybe if I revisit it now I'll realize it's not great, but nostalgia will carry me.
The Poképark series is more about the experience than the raw gameplay. Even so, it's not for everyone. Being a massive Pokémon fanboy, this is exactly the kind of thing I like - making friends with Pokémon.
@@JoyKirbs Honestly doesn't feel as immersive though, and it's not the same as actually playing as a Pokémon and fighting other Pokémon in a 3D environment.
Wdym more to do? There's like 20 hours worth of content in this game. Maybe half of that if you wanna speedrun it. And it has really good replay potential
I've replayed Pokepark2 many more times than the first game. I find the second game a lot more fun and compelling. For me, the minigames in the first game weren't very engaging. What I really love is all the different interactions with the new friends, and I think the second game does a lot better with it. I'm the kind of person who cares more about a game's story. I absolutely adore the dynamic between the four characters, especially the way that Oshawott and Snivy play off of each other. This is the game that defined how I perceived each of the starters in terms of personality. And I will replay this game just to watch their introductions, as well as just sit and look at the scenery.
And something people don't seem to talk about is the fact that the game gives a real sense of danger, and by that I mean you can feel there are actual stakes. Pikachu's Adventure never gave the feeling there was danger, expecially with the climax. I love the game but seriously, talk about underwhelming.
@@Vivigreeny25 My only complaint about Pokepark 2's story is that the power of friendship cliche being used to win back your friends quickly was really lame.
@@theepicoshawott bruhhh if you talk to gothorita as snivy post game it will be like huhh snivy don’t you hate it when when everyone assumes your gender cause snivy is a girl then gothorita says “ yeah me too everyone always assumes I’m a girl but I’m a boy!!!” That was always so funny to me as a kid
Damn, this game's graphics looks really good for a Wii game. Honestly, besides the bad minigames and cheesy story about friendship, this game has some pretty cool concepts. Running around a park as a Pokemon in a 3D world, interacting with other Pokemon is a great idea for a game.
PokéPark Wii and PokéPark 2 were developed by Creatures, and they later went on to develop Detective Pikachu. You can see it in the UI design and character interaction.
I really want pokepark 3 after seeing new Detective Pikachu being released in 2023 (knowing how long the development is iirc). I wonder if we can somehow fit most of the pokemons in one game
Conquest is definitely one of the most bizarre crossover choices, with gameplay being based on Nobunaga’s Ambition, and the character designs directly lifted Samurai Warriors, two games based on one of Japan’s most bloody historical periods, but they managed to blend Pokemon in so well. It’s honestly one of the best games on the DS overall.
i might get hate for saying this but the mystery dungeon games bore the shit out of me. I can still get the appeal, it's just not for me. Conquest is by far the best spinoff in the series imo, even if i love colosseum and XD gale of darkness. Conquest even surpasses a few main series games in my opinion. Like i just said, i don't judge you at all for liking mystery dungeon, i'm just really not a fan. Conquest forever baby. (When is my sequel, game freak)
I don't care what anyone says, this will always be one of my favourite video games of all time. It has so much heart, care and joy put into it that makes it such a wondeful experience to play, full of life and everything I love about Pokémon.
imo, Pokepark 2 improves on the last one in terms of atmosphere and music. If you aren't particularly sure on that, stand on the balcony at Seasong Beach for a minute or two.
a pokemon game where you control a pokemon in a cool world while interacting with other pokemon living their lives? my dude you just described the mystery dungeon games
I dunno what kind of person it makes me, but when I was battling in this game, I loved using bystanding Pokémon as meat shields and knocking my opponents into water if there was any around.
I remember when I was was younger, my friend and I would rent this game from the library, and play it on his wii. This is such a good game, and anytime I go back to play it, I’m flooded with nostalgia. It does have some weak points, but this game is SO good.
@@scizor1017 I mean, Johto is still entirely fantastic. Be it the originals or the great remakes. Black and White had the extra push of a pretty enjoyable narrative along with acting as a soft reboot to make things fresh after some stagnation. Personally, I like Johto more, but that can be a bias from it being my first games in the franchise, so it's practically a tie.
Ok. Here's my take: Yes. The lesser amount of mini games wasn't too great but IMO everything else Improved. The story, dialouge, characters, befriending, it just feels better This was also a huge chunk of when I was younger and I loved the games so I might have some nostalgic bias
Funfact: a PokèPark 3 was Considered But Nintendo Opted Against The Idea For whatever Reason Not Much is Known about the Cancelled PokePark 3 Except that it was To Include Sylveon As a Playable character meaning it most likely would've been centered around Gen 6.
If Poképark was the reason Shaymin is my favorite legendary, I’m fine with that. I played both and the nostalgia I got just by watching these two videos made me smile.
When I was younger I was paralyzed every time I entered Wish park. My dad had to convince me to step in and help me muster up the courage to complete the game...
Dudeee the cave area from the first pokepark made me stop playing for a few days. To be fair the music was terrifying especially combined with the space of that thing i got lost a few times. Scary stuff o_0
I loved using Oshawott the most. It always felt so satisfying to use Razor Shell and see the opponent Pokemon flying off from the force as you make them faint.
Too slow for my liking but that QUALITY water swimming gameplay puts breath of the wild exploration for shame. Will gladly come back to the beach just for that fun.
"Under the command of Darkrai..." Dammit! Cant we get one game where Darkrai is the good guy? Or at least, not evil? Why does he have to be the villain all the time? There are over seven hundred Pokemon now, stop discriminating against Dark Types.
Review Pokemon: Mystery Dungeon: explorers of sky It’s a great story, good gameplay and an awesome package. I recommend you play the special episodes and the postgame, too, if you decide to do so, of course. That story rivals some of the best books imo
@John Ford buddy, as someone who just replayed explorers of Sky, all I can say is you are of the very small minority that think this. That game holds up and then some!
@John Ford Explorers of Time and Darkness are just as good. There's just a little less extra content and after game. Overall Explorers of Sky is the same game but it adds extra stories for some of the characters and adds more to the after game to expand it more.
This game got me into Pokémon. I never even completed it until recently and I still had like 16 hours on the game. I just was obsessed with running around and doing whatever. It's very nostalgic for me and is still high on my guilty pleasure list.
Pokepark 2: Wonders Beyond! Pikachu must save the lost Pokemon! But its an adventure he can't do himself! He brought his pals to have some help! Hey! Hey! Oshawot is cool and he swims! Snivy jumps high to help her friends! Tepig can smash through anything! Together they make the ultimate team! (I legit have that song memorized)
These two games are probably my most played games ever. I played it all day everyday form like age 6 until 10 when I 100%Ed 2. I've been waiting for PokePark 3 on switch. With the better software I can imagine the old gang as well as other starters and famous pokemon like riolu, lucario, lycanroc or eevee being playable. And also bring back the old attractions
I think most people that actually played the games when they were released were little children like how I was and made our own sandbox fun with it. I just have so many memories and nostalgia with those games and they were really fun in my eyes. I guess that’s why any game u play as a kid, no matter how bad it is, u still look back at it as one of the best games you’ve ever played
Holy shit, making piplup slow was actually really genius. I thought it was just to get players familiar with the chase minigame mechanics, but nope, it lines up with a major plot point. The attention to detail is immaculate and another reason why this game is so underrated Edit: Ok now he's dogging on the game, that took a turn lmao. The points are valid, I won't lie, but the place this game holds in my heart will never go away. The huge open world, the little secrets, and the witty dialogue were more enough for 10-year old me. For christ's sake, there was a whole secret world with classics like mudkip, bouffalaunt and like 30 others.
Finally, but where's that Kirby: Right Back At Ya review, Ash?! 0:48 Huh, wonder who that is... 2:32 how could you say this about Piplup Guy 10:49 ooh I see the word Determination
I don't care what anyone says, this will always be one of my favourite video games of all time. It has so much heart, care and joy put into it that makes it such a wondeful experience to play, full of life and everything I love about Pokémon.
This game is one of my favorites. It taught me how to read, but in retrospect, it really isn’t the greatest game. I still play it every now and again, but I’d much rather play either a main line game, or another handheld game
I don't dislike Gen 5 (obviously can't if I haven't played lol), it looks good, but I don't think I've actually ever seen someone call it their favorite, which is a bit weird to me
When this game came out, I was at the peak of my Pokemon fanboyism and I was 7 and was very easily frightened. When this game came out and I got it and had nightmares about pokemon being hypnotized into basically going to hell
Doodle Dect Wait...7? That would make you (crunches numbers into calculator)...14? Okay, you make the cut. Just barely, but we, the adults of RUclips shall allow your existence. Interesting that you mention your “peak” though, as I imagine that’s around the age when people first get into Pokemon. So, I’m guessing that Gen 5 was your first? (This is really off-topic, but this comment’s just got me curious. Haha)
I remember how I thought Pokepark 1 was a massive waste of time while Pokepark 2 still sticks with me to this day. 5 years or so later. It was really fun and I enjoyed the story and gameplay. And the addition of playing Oshawott and Tepig who are two of my favourite Pokemon was super sweet! And I still remember how frustrating it was to beat Zekrom. What an asshole.
Ahh my childhood game let's see how good was it Edit: huh well I thought the story was quite good but well I have to agree that the were pretty little minigames,but hey at least I know that I'll always remember this game as the first game I've completed 100% (and nostalgia too)
Man i love this game full of nostalgic memories. While i see where your coming from when you say you dont like it i personally enjoy it and find it calming.
Huh. We have surprisingly similar views here. I enjoy PokePark 2, but prefer the first game due to the lighter story and much more Attractions with dozens of playable Pokemon. I am sorry that the PokePark series isn't your cup of tea, Ant. Thanks for giving them a shot, at least... I will remain in the minority who loves this quirky Pokemon spin-off series of games. Don't worry; I won't unsubscribe from you just because you don't like PokePark. 😊
I 100% both, and I've grown to like them. I honestly feel that if they combined the aspects of both, and added a few new things, I feel it would be much better
I actually liked both games my childhood consisted of these games and it was awesome as a 7 year old, it was even fun just to walk around sometimes, I guess as a younger kid these games are awesome
You should do Pokémon Mystery Dungeon. When I was younger that was the best and now I realize that it didn’t dumb down the story just because kids were playing it. In fact the whole series (mainly the gameboy advance versions) were great. The 3DS ones were much more meh but the story is still there.
I was one of the subs that were wainting Pokepark 2 to have a place here! I really loved it because it was really calming and cute, and oh boy, this game after a long day at work it's just glorious. TY for the video, I never played the first one, so I will.
I really wish the PokepPark games weren't so expensive. They're both over $30-40 each at GameStop and I feel that's just asking for too much out of these games. I just want to play them cause I honestly do I like the idea of playing as a Pokemon in a 3D world interacting with other Pokemon. I just don't want to throw away all of my money just to play them. If they were only about $20 each, then I think that would be a much more fair price. Honestly, I would probably only get the second game since it has my favorite set of starters as playable characters.
I feel like a good story and some good Pokemon (love the starters especially) just got buried beneath the clearly filler pokemon and the not that memorable reigon. Though I wish pokemon would go back to animated sprites instead of 3d models.
@@starmangalaxy2001 I do see what you mean, but, you have to give it credit for its ambition. It wanted to be a new Gen 1. It wanted to revamp the entire Pokémon series. The idea of not having ANY previous Pokémon and having an entirely fresh, new world to explore was amazing and obviously risky, and, unfortunately, it didn't really pay off. A lot of people hated and still hate Gen 5 because of that. And it's kinda tragic when you think about it. Game Freak WANTED to try something new with their games, they WANTED to usher in a new era of Pokémon. EVERY GAME could have been like Gen 5, with an entirely new roster and no reused Pokémon. I think that's when Game Freak realized that a large amount of their fans ARE genwunners, cause ever since Gen 5 you can tell they're trying to really cater to those kinds of fans. But honestly, I would have loved it if every game were like Gen 5 in terms of its roster.
Gamer Bro Don’t explain the joke it just makes it 151 times less funnier (THERES A REALLY FUNNY JOKE THAT ONLY TRUE EPIC GAMERS WILL UNDERSTAND😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😁😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤓😂😝😜😜😛😝😜😛😜😝🙃🙂🙃🙂)
I remember borrowing pokepark 2 from my neighbors when I was probably 9-10 after playing the first one and really liking it. The second one was more memorable and more enjoyable to me back then, probably because the worlds were much larger and more interesting. I never cared for the minigames in either 1 or 2, all i really remember is not being able to 100% the game because i couldnt find crustle.
I don't know if I'm one of the few people in the world to have played through both games, but I can tell you that I'm one that has played through both games, got every friend, beat every mini game and the high scores, then did it all again about 10 times for each game. Pokepark is really fun for me, but that might just be because it's my childhood game. It's adorable, great graphics, great voice acting, and lovely scenery. Apart from the controls that are a bit off for my liking, both games have lots of things that I adore!
So... I was a LOT more flattered a while back. Yeesh. Whatever, I played the game all the way through again for the first time in years, and I LOVED it! It’s still great! Also, the battle music is fantastic! Now though, I can absolutely see the flaws, such as not being able to play the mini games with more than 4 Pokémon.
8:54 "Objectively lesser game in my opinion" If you look up the word "oxymoron" in the dictionary it'll actually just lead you to a that timestamp for this video.
This game was a huge chunk of my childhood. Exploring the world, getting the best score in the dance mini game and getting everyone in the cove as angry as possible. Just messing around with characters and settings was really fun.

you do know pokepark 2 is made by the same company that is working on detective pikachu
@@popdoo3234 Detective Pikachu: Mysteries of the PokePark.
Holy shit, making piplup slow was actually really genius. I thought it was just to get players familiar with the chase minigame mechanics, but nope, it lines up with a major plot point. The attention to detail is immaculate and another reason why this game is so underrated
Edit: Ok now he's dogging on the game, that took a turn lmao. The points are valid, I won't lie, but the place this game holds in my heart will never go away. The huge open world, the little secrets, and the witty dialogue were more enough for 10-year old me. For christ's sake, there was a whole secret world with classics like mudkip, bouffalaunt and like 30 others.
Finally, but where's that Kirby: Right Back At Ya review, Ash?!

i also favor gen five because the unova series was just so wholesome and good i cant ever forget it
What game wasn't wholesome?
I can't be the only one who cried at PokéPark 2's ending, right?
...... Right?
I love both of the Pokepark games. I really wish we had another one..
Yes my second favorite game besides the first game!
......wait
YOU DONT LIKE POKEPARK
Those two games are my FAVORITE GAMES
E V E R
Once again they are no longer my favorite games. I am sorry for my actions.
Wait, Gen 5 is your favorite. I finally found someone else who agrees with me.
Right here too!
How long have you been on the internet?
@@oyeh8908 hmm... since 2011.
@@cheesebreeze2 And AntDude is the _first person_ you've found besides yourself whose favorite generation is Gen 5?
@@oyeh8908 No, it was more meant to be a joke. Most people I know don't like gen 5, and it was my first mainstream Pokemon game.
I don't care what anyone says, this will always be one of my favourite video games of all time. It has so much heart, care and joy put into it that makes it such a wondeful experience to play, full of life and everything I love about Pokémon.
Oshawott is still my favorite boi.
Same.
*Oshawott Forever!*
Alot of Lumas in this comment section, how rare.
He so precious
Dewott is my fac but we can't forget smol round boi oshawott
This game is one of my favorites. It taught me how to read, but in retrospect, it really isn’t the greatest game. I still play it every now and again, but I’d much rather play either a main line game, or another handheld game
I knew AntDude was my favorite tuber once he said Gen 5 was his fav!!!
I don't dislike Gen 5 (obviously can't if I haven't played lol), it looks good, but I don't think I've actually ever seen someone call it their favorite, which is a bit weird to me
Isn’t this the only video he says that in though...
Aaron Manning
Really? Well, I can tell you it's my favorite. Trust me, that game is awesome.
Aaron Manning compared to the other Pokémon games, it’s looked down a lot. But play Gen 5 as soon as you can.
When this game came out, I was at the peak of my Pokemon fanboyism and I was 7 and was very easily frightened. When this game came out and I got it and had nightmares about pokemon being hypnotized into basically going to hell
Doodle Dect Wait...7? That would make you (crunches numbers into calculator)...14? Okay, you make the cut. Just barely, but we, the adults of RUclips shall allow your existence.
Interesting that you mention your “peak” though, as I imagine that’s around the age when people first get into Pokemon. So, I’m guessing that Gen 5 was your first? (This is really off-topic, but this comment’s just got me curious. Haha)
sunchips18 im actually 15 so I guess I was 6
Really? The only Pokemon to ever give me nightmares was the Hitmontop in Pokepark 1.
I remember how I thought Pokepark 1 was a massive waste of time while Pokepark 2 still sticks with me to this day. 5 years or so later. It was really fun and I enjoyed the story and gameplay. And the addition of playing Oshawott and Tepig who are two of my favourite Pokemon was super sweet!
And I still remember how frustrating it was to beat Zekrom. What an asshole.
I actually have really fond memories of this game.
This game is one of my favorites, so it’s still awesome coming back and seeing my comment in Antdude’s review of the game.
At last, you have redeemed yourself.
Now when will you get to taking that Metroid off Kirby's head?
Shiro-Luna I think the blonde girl is under 18
@@SonicXtreme99akaCreeperMario both Moon and Lillie are under 18. I think they're like... 11-12

I remember killing Zekrom, with Snivy
I just ran around him charging up attacks and then launching them
Hol' up, people actually use Snivy? Like, I get that Snivy is good for chasing, but otherwise Snivy SUCKS
@@Wishtelle That's not valid.
@@Wishtelle Nope. The strength is important and except for her running speed...SHE SUCKS
Ahh my childhood game let's see how good was it
Edit: huh well I thought the story was quite good but well I have to agree that the were pretty little minigames,but hey at least I know that I'll always remember this game as the first game I've completed 100% (and nostalgia too)
I played the sequel as a kid (I didn’t have the first one) and I absolutely loved it and thought it was heavily underrated.
Oh no, he teased dash, now he has to play that game the poor soul

Pokepark 2 was my entire childhood

Me:E X C A U S E M E W H A T
Man i love this game full of nostalgic memories. While i see where your coming from when you say you dont like it i personally enjoy it and find it calming.
Huh. We have surprisingly similar views here.
I enjoy PokePark 2, but prefer the first game due to the lighter story and much more Attractions with dozens of playable Pokemon.
I am sorry that the PokePark series isn't your cup of tea, Ant. Thanks for giving them a shot, at least...
I will remain in the minority who loves this quirky Pokemon spin-off series of games. Don't worry; I won't unsubscribe from you just because you don't like PokePark. 😊
Pokepark 3: You play as pikachu and a series of boxes, and the only minigame is just hitting words to say "I'm having fun"
this was a really good spyro video
I 100% both, and I've grown to like them. I honestly feel that if they combined the aspects of both, and added a few new things, I feel it would be much better
I actually liked both games my childhood consisted of these games and it was awesome as a 7 year old, it was even fun just to walk around sometimes, I guess as a younger kid these games are awesome
You should do Pokémon Mystery Dungeon. When I was younger that was the best and now I realize that it didn’t dumb down the story just because kids were playing it. In fact the whole series (mainly the gameboy advance versions) were great. The 3DS ones were much more meh but the story is still there.
How psyched are you for the Kirby DLC
All the kirby fans failed no nut november after that
@@cosmicmemelord I lived
I was one of the subs that were wainting Pokepark 2 to have a place here! I really loved it because it was really calming and cute, and oh boy, this game after a long day at work it's just glorious. TY for the video, I never played the first one, so I will.
Ah this was my first pokemon related game this is what got me into pokemon and why gen 5 is my favorite
Oh gosh thank you, I was obsessed with this game when I was younger.
I really wish the PokepPark games weren't so expensive. They're both over $30-40 each at GameStop and I feel that's just asking for too much out of these games. I just want to play them cause I honestly do I like the idea of playing as a Pokemon in a 3D world interacting with other Pokemon. I just don't want to throw away all of my money just to play them. If they were only about $20 each, then I think that would be a much more fair price. Honestly, I would probably only get the second game since it has my favorite set of starters as playable characters.
Brings back so many memories. When I was younger, I played the game 2 times over because it was so good.
Gen 5, it is awesome! *gets beaten up by 151 Genwunners* (there's a subtle joke in there)
Hahahahahha, i love gen 5 too!
I feel like a good story and some good Pokemon (love the starters especially) just got buried beneath the clearly filler pokemon and the not that memorable reigon. Though I wish pokemon would go back to animated sprites instead of 3d models.
@@starmangalaxy2001 I do see what you mean, but, you have to give it credit for its ambition. It wanted to be a new Gen 1. It wanted to revamp the entire Pokémon series. The idea of not having ANY previous Pokémon and having an entirely fresh, new world to explore was amazing and obviously risky, and, unfortunately, it didn't really pay off. A lot of people hated and still hate Gen 5 because of that. And it's kinda tragic when you think about it. Game Freak WANTED to try something new with their games, they WANTED to usher in a new era of Pokémon. EVERY GAME could have been like Gen 5, with an entirely new roster and no reused Pokémon. I think that's when Game Freak realized that a large amount of their fans ARE genwunners, cause ever since Gen 5 you can tell they're trying to really cater to those kinds of fans. But honestly, I would have loved it if every game were like Gen 5 in terms of its roster.

@@carlodavies9227 -_-
Fun fact: the scene where pikachus friends all lost there memories is the first and only time i ever cried playing a video game lmao
If we eventually got poképark 3, it should take the best from the two games
This game was my childhood, thank you for reviewing it!
This is cool and all, but when are you doing Pokepark 2 Antdude?
This game is truly an underrated gem in my opinion
The Ace Attorney God also loves Gen 5, he is pleased.
I remember borrowing pokepark 2 from my neighbors when I was probably 9-10 after playing the first one and really liking it. The second one was more memorable and more enjoyable to me back then, probably because the worlds were much larger and more interesting. I never cared for the minigames in either 1 or 2, all i really remember is not being able to 100% the game because i couldnt find crustle.
I Want A Third On Switch Pleasee.
PLEASE
REALLY I WANT ONE.
THE SERIES HAS POTENTIAL
PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Pleeeeeease
I don't know if I'm one of the few people in the world to have played through both games, but I can tell you that I'm one that has played through both games, got every friend, beat every mini game and the high scores, then did it all again about 10 times for each game. Pokepark is really fun for me, but that might just be because it's my childhood game. It's adorable, great graphics, great voice acting, and lovely scenery. Apart from the controls that are a bit off for my liking, both games have lots of things that I adore!
"gen 5 - my favourite gen by the way"
UGH
finally someone else
Glad you saw my comment!~
I've waited so long for this video and now i'll wait for pokemon ranger,mystery dungeon or conquest.
Oh my god Poképark 1 and 2 are two of my favorite games
Edit: OH MY GOD MY COMMENT WAS FEATURED THANK YOU
So... I was a LOT more flattered a while back. Yeesh. Whatever, I played the game all the way through again for the first time in years, and I LOVED it! It’s still great! Also, the battle music is fantastic! Now though, I can absolutely see the flaws, such as not being able to play the mini games with more than 4 Pokémon.
Ah, the memory of my first 10h gaming session. No breaks, no meals, just 10yo me and my brother gaming for 10 hours straight. Simpler times.
Do pokepark 3
Omg, the nostalgia is just flooding back to me

If you look up the word "oxymoron" in the dictionary it'll actually just lead you to a that timestamp for this video.
How very dare you not mention Oshawott's sacrifice. I cried so much the first time I saw it.
Antdude you gotta do the Pokémon Mystery dungeon series!
The 2nd and 4th Mystery Dungeon games (Explorers of Sky and Super Mystery Dungeon respectively) are my favorite Pokemon spinoff games.
I remember this game. I loved it so much. I HAVE SO MUCH NOSTALGIA FROM IT.
