Yeah, it's some weird little racing game using the duel cycles from 5D
although they're making an actual dueling yu-gi-oh game for the Wii

Speaking as a classic pokemon collector/fanatic... you should buy it.

This might help you decide
Read this:
johnxThe Pokéwalker counts the number of steps you take as you walk around. The more steps you take, the more Watts you earn, which you can spend to find items and Pokémon!When you transfer a Pokémon from your game into your Pokéwalker, you can select which Route you’d like to take your Pokémon along. Depending on which Route you take (such as in a grassland or by the sea), you’ll encounter different wild Pokémon and find remarkable items. When you first begin your journeys with the Pokéwalker, the list of Routes you can select from is short. But, the more you take a Stroll with your Pokémon, the more Routes will appear and the more Pokémon and items you’ll be able to get!Catch Wild Pokémon!
After you’ve collected some Watts by going on a Stroll with your Pokémon, spend some of them to use the Poké Radar to catch wild Pokémon! If you see tall grass rustling after you use the Poké Radar, you know you’ve found a Pokémon. You have three options in the battle. You can attack, evade, or catch the wild Pokémon. By attacking, you can wear down the wild Pokémon to make it easier to catch. If you choose to evade when the wild Pokémon attacks, you’ll perform a counterattack! And when you think the timing is right, throw a Poké Ball to catch the Wild Pokémon. You can keep up to three caught Pokémon in your Pokéwalker at a time. If you catch a fourth Pokémon, you must choose one of them to set free.Find Items!
Use the Pokéwalker’s Dowsing Machine to help find items. Like the Poké Radar, you use the Watts you earned while walking to use the Dowsing Machine. Some of the items you can find are quite uncommon! When you use the Dowsing Machine, you’ll see six patches of tall grass, and one of them has a hidden item in it. You have only two chances to discover the item! Some of the items you can get are really hard to find and very valuable, so keep hunting!Time to Transfer!
Once you’ve found Pokémon and items using your Pokéwalker, you can send them back to your Pokémon game. You can only keep up to three Pokémon and three items in your Pokéwalker at a time, so be sure to send them to your game when your inventory fills up! Remember, if you catch a fourth Pokémon in your Pokéwalker, you’ll have to swap out one of the three Pokémon you’ve already caught.The Pokéwalker Journal
After your Pokémon has spent some time in your Pokéwalker, you can get a recap in the Pokéwalker Journal. The journal tells of all the places the Pokémon has been and the things it has found while traveling inside your Pokéwalker! For example, if you catch a particular Pokémon while out on a Stroll, your Pokéwalker Journal will make note of it. It will also keep track of how your Pokémon has behaved while inside your Pokéwalker!Pokéwalkers Communicate with Each Other!
The Pokéwalkers don’t communicate only with Game Cards—they can also communicate with each other! When you connect Pokéwalkers with a friend, you’ll both receive an item as a gift! You can connect two Pokéwalkers via infrared signal by pointing them at each other. When you do so, both players will receive an item! You can receive up to ten items by connecting to your friends, but you can get only one gift per person, per day.

You could do what I plan on doing.
step1 Pre-order game
step2 wait for game
step3 pick game
step4 open and remove pokewalkers and figure.
step5 sell back game
step6 Enjoy your game.

it's true the store wont accept back a open game, but they will buy back the game for store credit.
Most new games I sell back get about 20-15 in store credit, so the pokewalker would end up costing you... about 20-25 dollars.. it's probably better to just pre-order the game and sell back the game and take out the pokewalkers so you can trick yourself into thinking you bought the pokemon figure and the pokewalker for 10 bucks each.

hmm i think ill buy it and make my pirate crew sad
S
Yeah buy it the pokewalker will be worth it... I think
M
I thought the pokewalker comes with the games when bought legit?...oh yeah I forgot...rom site ::)Listen, the pokewalker won't give ev's, it's like using a day care center or rare candies.Makes pokemon weaker, when you ev train or understand somewhat how ev's work, you'd know only battles where exp is given it makes pokemon slightly better, though pure ev trainig makes dedicated monsters capable of 1 hit ko's.

Then you will have a non-usable pokewalker, the game cartridge has an IR thing in it, it works with the pokewalker, using a rom with the walker wouldn't work.

Man, go back to the days where there wasn't such a thing called EV's, where you didn't have to breed and reset to get the best stats or whatever, back to a simpler time, you will enjoy the games more :)
I know i do, i don't care about any of that EV mumbo jumbo

Who said I was gonna buy only one? :)
I plan on buying both games and sell the other :P
however I did not know that the pokewalker did not work with the ROM on a flashcart, but if for anyone that does plan on actually buying both I highly recommend you do sell the second game, since you can get both ho-oh and lugia on the same game, and then sell the pokewalker on Ebay or something.

Neither do I, I grew up with red version.
And I also brought up great teams in a far shorter time, I made teams of 6 in the time it took to make one.
...but as I noticed, rare candies back in red still affects the stats, my onix had CRAP everything, even the defence was poor compared to what I seen my friends raised.
Still though, I lost interest in the games and thus chosen to sit this part of the series out...
After my losses in tourneyments, temas with the best, most balanced move sets have no chance at something designed to kill in one shot.
And attempting to "copy" an ev'd pokemon used agaisn't me failed, my mate who tried it just for a tourneyment made it balanced ev's...the original apprently would only have defence and speed , yet would die in a single special attack, which was used mostly.

I agree, I remember when back in the days of blue and red pokemon training felt fun! and not like work with all these EV spreading and stuff, but! there was a way to increase a pokemons stats by battling and not actually using rare candies, it was awesome! because it made my team Powerful! and I barely lost any battles in tournaments, and it was legit and perfectly legal.
You just trained and battled like you would any pokemon, but when you ran out of PP of a leveled up move, you would deposite the pokemon and one of his stats would increase by 1 or sometimes 2, but there was a limit to how much you could do this on a pokemon and this was basically like ev training, but easier and made some of my pokemon more competitive to take on thoes tough stadium round 2 pokemon and some local tournamenst along with other places I went too.
Sorry for getting off topic but I just felt I needed to share this with you guys. :)
anyway back on topic. Yes, pokewalker is kinda pointless, and there really not needed to fully enjoy this game, but! if you're like me and are busy most of the time with work and stuff then I recommend having the pokewalker.
