If you are a Pokémon fan but crave a change to the popular formula then you might be interested in Pokémon Conquest. Pokémon Conquest is the renamed Western release of Pokémon + Nobunaga’s Ambition. Pokémon Conquest is developed by Tecmo Koei and is a turn-based RPG.
Nintendo’s description of Pokémon Conquest:
In Pokémon Conquest, players take on the role of a young Warlord who is linked with a Pokémon. Together, they must set out to recruit Warrior allies to strengthen their growing kingdom. Along their journey, players will encounter a variety of Pokémon, as well as Warriors and Warlords inspired by the Japanese feudal era. The game contains nearly 200 Pokémon, including many from the recent Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version games, which have sold more than 4 million copies combined in the United States.
As the battlefield unfolds in Pokémon Conquest, players must choose the correct Pokémon type to inflict maximum damage on their opponents. In the turn-based skirmishes, players choose different tactics for intense six-on-six battles, and battle conditions can change on every turn, keeping players on their toes in anticipation of what will happen next.
Pokémon Conquest is due to be released in America on June 18 for the Nintendo DS.

I’m glad they’re finally doing something different with the franchise. Definitely looking forward to this one.
Looks good!!
It should have been for 3ds!
I have mixed feelings about this…
I’m not really a Pokemon fan but this looks pretty cool.
It’s basically Pokémon tactics – what’s not to love?
Looking back at this, I think I prefer the older Pokemon games to this one.
