Gotta Snag 'em all! - By: DarkPharaoh, 10 Oct 2007 
You capture wild Pokémon only, right?
Wrong! The lead characterin this game wears a device on his arm, allowing him to snag Pokémon. However, you still can't just snag any Pokémon.
Teaming up wth a girl who has the ability to see dark auras, you travel around rescuing "Shadow Pokémon", who's hearts have been sealed shutin labs. Caring for these Pokémon & taking them to a special place restores the Pokémon to their original state.
When you've snagged all the Shadow Pokémon, & restored them, you're said to be able to get Ho-oh as well. I can't vouch for that yet, but I'm working on it.
Pokemon in a whole new world (I don't mean that literally) - By: , 05 May 2005 
Pokemon Colosseum is a great game but it can become rather tedious for instance when you have to catch a particular Pokemon to move on, this can be extremely annoying. The graphics are great & the battles are outstanding. Sound - alright, but then again it's not hard to be alright when you're not there - this game is virtually silent but that's a bonus because you don't have to listen to the characters going on. One thing thing it lacks is the basic Pokemon selection at the beginning which is rather annoying because I want a Treeco!
Overall impression? - rather good so why are you still reading this...buy it!

Not as good as hoped. - By: C. O'Connor, 25 Nov 2004 I think the thing that really attracted me to the original game was the fact that you could capture (not steal) over 149 pokemon. Although, this is still, one of the better games on the gamecube-despite me being rather critical of it.
The game sees you, an ex-pirate who has left his group on a journey (another one!) The plot is essentially that some evil group have been making shadow pokemon! You need to steal these pokemon, which your lady friend can see, & bring them back to their senses. Unfortunately, plot wise thats pretty much it, but there is plenty to do, dont get me wrong.
Graphically, this game is good. The locations are genuinely big & really reflect the nature of the area through the music. The pokemon are well modelled & genuinely look & fight well, but as with most gamesin this era, the looks aren't the be-all & end-all of it. The gameplay is what stands out. So there are only 60 pokemon AND NO STARMIE DAMN YOU! But the fact you REALLY have to fight for them (and die) is what makes it so rewarding. You now fight with two pokemon at a time, & this actually works well. HOWEVER, the computers pokemon are incredibly hard to capture, they can break out of super-balls with incredible ease, & this adds to the frustration. There are various gyms you can go to, TMs to unlock & an incredibly 100 battle arena that becomes increasingly more difficult as you go on. Along with that, there are the colleseums to go to. Putting it bluntly, there is a lotin this game that will keep you coming back for more.
So whats dissappointing-the fact that most of the hardcore fans of the original will be dissappointed, that only a few appear from red, blue & yellow, but they're nearly all from silver, gold, ruby & saphire. For those of us with a poorer memory that means even more names to remember, & for the action fan amongst us, this game is still turnbased & you have to wait whilst the computer takes its go, it can turn into a game of chess more or less.
Other than that, its good. Worth adding to your collection
