That brief clip made it into Pokemon Channel, though Pokemon Channel perhaps wasn’t the experience that fans were expecting. It was pretty amazing back then, especially in comparison to the blocky N64 Pokemon that were the standard at the time. One of the clips shown was named ‘Meowth’s Party’ a very brief showcase of pre-rendered graphics that showed how Pokemon could look, using the GameCube’s then-cutting edge 3D. When the GameCube was first revealed, short gameplay and FMV snippets were shown as part of a demo reel. Pokemon Channel was a truly odd game that was seemingly aimed at very young Pokemon fans.
There were a few other features, such as the ability to breed Pokemon – but with Pokemon Box being more of a helpful accessory than a game (even though Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire can be played on your TV using the disc) it sits in last place on our best GameCube Pokemon games list. It also allowed gamers to play Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire on the big screen, using the Game Boy Advance Link Cable. Despite only having Ruby and Sapphire in the name, Pokemon Box was actually compatible with Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, FireRed and LeafGreen.
It allowed players to store and organise up to 1500 Pokemon on the included memory card – and was compatible with all Game Boy Advance Pokemon titles. Still, its limited availability made it quite a challenge to get hold of.
Pokemon Box – which came with the disc, Game Boy Advance Link Cable and GameCube Memory Card – alleviated these problems. Though not strictly a game, Pokemon Box: Ruby & Sapphire is – or rather was – a vital tool for serious Pokemon collectors.īack in the early 00s, if you were collecting Pokemon across multiple Game Boy Advance cartridges, it was a real pain to organise them or even just get them into the right game at the right time.
