Pokémon spinoff games that you're not a fan of

Anything centered in Pikachu: Poképark, Hey You Pikachu, Pokémon Channel...
I just dislike Pikachu, so of course I wouldn't like a game starring it.

Pokémon Snap. I don't really care much about it. Nothing else to say about it, really.

Pokémon Puzzle League. You'd think I'd like this since I really like the Panel de Pon games as a whole, and I do like Pokémon Puzzle Chalenge... But the "cheesy pokémon anime everywhere" kind of makes it unbearable for me. It also doesn't seem to play as smoothly as other versions.

Pokémon Trozei! See Pokémon Snap.

Pokémon Pinball. See Pokémon Trozei + I don't like Pinball at all either, at least not enough to consider it worthy of being a full-fledged game, more like a minigame or just something you play for ten minutes.


And I guess the "box" and the ranch games. Though do they even count as games...?


And... that's about it, I guess.

To be fair, the game is at least self-aware of that. With things like the Weavile team being not THAT bad at all and just with a pretty bad reputation. And seems to avert it with other really minor NPCs...
But yeah, that is a thing I disliked of the games, the "scarier" pokémon that got the spotlight were those characterized as bad ones. I kinda wish that at least Cresselia would have been acting on a "well intentioned extremist" deal and was actually in a misunderstanding, rather than being just Darkrai.

Pokemon Dash, Mystery Dungeon (after the main story), Battle Revolution (if that counts)

The Ranger games are pretty bad. I couldn't even sit through the tutorial without getting fed up and shutting the game off.

For me, it would be Dash and Trozei. Pokemon Dash was one of the first DS games I got along with my original DS system and I did like playing it at first. Unfortunately, the novelty wore off pretty quickly and it became quite dull. I think that Trozei was better than Dash, if only for being more unique, but it also kind of suffered with the same problem of getting dull after awhile. I tend to really enjoy the spin-off games, but these were the two that I enjoyed the least amount playing.

To me Pokemon Colosseum and XD: Gale of darkness were lame. Both games were pretty much the exact same thing. And I hated the system for catching wild pokemon. Give me another Stadium game!!!! :banghead:

Snap, Ranger, Ranch, Box, XD, Colussium, Puzzle League, and Dash.

Everything except Dungeon and Revolution
I dont know the other spin off but i still dont care about them

Ranger sucked. I rage quitted alot. And i didn't even get past the tutorial in pkmn dash. Lastly, the worst, trozei. ARE YOU KIDDING ME! Its some sort of bejeweld thing mixed with pokemon.

Why no one ever mentioned Pokemon Conquest? I dislike tactics games, and don't like the concept of the game either where it is based off Japanese/Chinese feudal war! It doesn't matter the game has good graphic and music, it is just too far outside the box of Pokemon I generally like.

the only spinoff games i got were the ones that werent really spin offs or were fun to play with friends. like gale of darkness or pokemon battle revalution

I love PMD, but only the first one, really. I have over 200 hours on Blue Rescue Team, but I barely played Explorers of Darkness after I beat it. So PMD2 is prolly my least favorite spin-off. I liked Pinball a lot, and have a totally complete file of Hey You, Pikachu (I got really attached to it).

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon.. I find this game awfully boring, from the first one for GBA, and it did NOTHING to improve in it's sequels.

The spinoffs I liked are Snap, Puzzle Challenge/League and Ranger: Guardian signs.
