-Pokemon Ranger: Batannage-

"The latest issue of the “CoroCoro” magazine has spilled the news of a sequel to Pokemon Ranger for the Nintendo DS. Pokemon Ranger: Batannage will have many new features; some new and some extending from the original. They include:

- To be set in Arumia, with adventurer Hajime. This won’t limit gender options, since like before both characters would have just graduated from Ranger School.
- Will feature a number of fourth generation Pokemon including Darkrai as an ominous Pokemon.
- Your partner will be selectable from a range of 17 Pokemon (including Munchlax, Kricketot, Mime Jr., Cranidos, Croagunk, Machop, Shieldon, Chimchar, Piplup, Turtwig, Pachirisu, Starly, Snover, Misdreavus, Hippopotas, Sneasel and Gible).
- A new set of missions, known as quests will allow you to help out the townsfolk.
- Crads that have special bonuses will be available.
- WFC will be used in some way.
- Ability to surf on Pokemon.
- The game mechanics work in the same way."
