What is "My Pokemon Ranch"?

Question

OK, I was on Serebii, looking at the new games coming out and I saw a link for My Pokemon Ranch. I always thought it was stupid, so I never bothered to buy it. But I found out that the game can be used as storage.

I want to restart my Diamond game because I just transfered all of my Pokemon from the old games(I was too lazy, and now I feel un-accomplished. lol). But, I don't want to lose my legendaries or starters.

If I transfer those Pokemon over to Pokemon Ranch, and restart my game, will I be able to transfer them back after I re-unlock the National 'Dex, or will they be trapped there?

Thanks!

Answer 1

You can't start a new file and get your pokemon back. They will be trapped there. It's the biggest waste of10$ you could spend. Avoid it.

Answer 2

I'm not actually sure. I saw My Pokemon Ranch on the Shop Channel while I was browsing WiiWare and I saw it and was diverted instantly because of the shocking graphics they had used to display the Pokemon. I honestly don't know if you can get your Pokemon back after transferring then, you may need to look at Serebii a bit more.

Answer 3

Its a non-game. You buy it and you can put pokemon in it and watch them walk around. That's it. It's the biggest waste of money next to the wii sports pack.

Answer 4

its a game on wii ware u can buy with wii points
