My 9 year old son has a number of the Prima Game Guides, including this one and loves to get them for all of his games. He has found that it makes the games more interesting as he finds "clues" to do new things that he was not aware of in the game (apparently there are secrets in most games that you just might never see unless you know the way to get to them). He also spots easy-to-understand help on screens that he was having difficulty with so that he does not get frustrated and stop playing the game. He and his friends all use the books, so I DEFINITELY recommend them for your favorite gamer.
BONUS- They can spend quite a bit of time reading over them to get the most from their games, and reading, no matter what the source, is always a great thing. Though he hates to read the directions that come with the games (he says they are not worth the time and do not have any helpful information anyway...and he is right) he ENJOYS reading these and sharing tips with his buddies.

I bought this book at the request of my grandaughter. She is obsessed with Pokemon. This is one of her favorite books. She consults it all the time. I even read it to understaand the characters that she wants play. If a child you know loves Pokemon this is a great book to buy.

2.0 out of 5 stars It's good enough, I suppose., June 26, 2008

If you're really having trouble with the Ranger game, this is worth your time. Otherwise, I wouldn't really recommend it. The maps are probably the best feature, since I tend to get turned around in the caves and forests you have to navigate through. The "Pokemon Browser" at the back helps when you're at a loss as to which pokemon you need to get past, say, a huge boulder or a fence.
The big downer about this guide is that they dont say anything about the special manaphy mission! You can get that online if you search for it.

Ultimately, other than what I listed as features, this guide is rather useless. Try to find a website that has a guide, instead.
