A 21-minute TV special based on the game starring Kurumi Mamiya aired in Japan on September 9th, 2007 as a content of the program relating Pokémon, "Pokémon Sunday" produced by TV Tokyo Corporation. The special will air in the USA on Cartoon Network prior to the games release on April 20, 2008.Upon starting the game, the player takes a personality test to determine which Pokémon will represent him or her. Possible results are Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Treecko, Turtwig, Charmander, Cyndaquil, Torchic, Chimchar, Squirtle, Totodile, Mudkip, Piplup, Pikachu, Meowth, Skitty and Munchlax. On one night, the player falls into the ocean and washes up unconscious on a sandy beach. The player awakens as a Pokemon, and soon befriends an aspiring Pokémon who wishes to become a famous explorer, but cannot join the Wigglytuff Guild, the official exploration club, without another member. After helping the Pokémon defeat two Pokémon criminals, a Koffing and a Zubat, the partner suggests forming an exploration team with the player.
Both are quickly admitted into the Wigglytuff Guild by the kindhearted Wigglytuff, and her hot-tempered yet well-meaning right hand man Chatot. The team gets to go on explorations and help Pokemon. However, 90% of money earned is given to the Guild to pay off its expenses.
Over the course of the game, with the help of some new and unexpected friends, the player must try to uncover the mysteries of his coming to this world, (all friends no longer require a Friend Area as in the first game), as well as thwarting an evil plot to control time by a mysterious Pokémon villain.
For years you've captured, traded and battled with them; now it's time once again to become a Pokémon yourself! Join a guild and prepare for adventure as you return to a fantastic land untouched by humans. Hundreds of Pokémon, randomly-generated dungeons, and online compatibility enhance strategic exploration and battles. Head out to explore long-lost dungeons, or hunt down criminal Pokémon - the choice is yours in this epic game.
