And both of them are not a Stadium Wii...

A new Wiiware game has been revealed under the name, Melee! Pokemon Scramble! Think a top down cross between Smash Bros and Mystery Dungeon and you're on the right track. Using different Pokemon, which are clockwork figures, you wined them up and send them out to battle other Pokemon. There is a Story Mode which has Legendaries as bosses and a Multiplayer where a friend can either team up with you on the Story Mode, or you can just battle it out with 3 friends at once. The game is due in Japan June 16th and will cost a wooping 1500 Points! You can see an example screenshot from the game below if you look hard enough.

Alternatively, click here to see the official advertisement from the Japanese site. Warning: you probably won't be able to understand 97% of it.

Also announced on the Pokemon Sunday show was a freeie device with the Heart Gold and Soul Silver games called the PokéWalker! Resembling the Pokemon Pikachu, which we shaded light on back in April, you can receive items and such when you hook up with your HGSS games. More excitingly, you can transfer a Pokemon onto the device and as you walk about with it, the Pokemon gains experience and levels up! No longer will it be a pain to train a Magikarp to Level 100! The device also contains minigames of sorts for when your DS or whatever is out of juice.

So the Pokewalker is a RL daycare center? I gotta have one. I am hoping that moves will not be deleted (like in DC currently). WiiWare game i'll have to think on, I usually only boot up the Wii now to move things around in the ranch

You said I probably wouldn't understand 97% of the video. I understood Pokemon, Wii, WiiWare and nothing else. Is the bits I din't understand 97% of the advert?
