The Innovative New Pokémon Adventure Comes To Australia and New Zealand on 10th January, bundled With The Nintendo Wireless Keyboard
21st December 2012 – Those looking for a fun yet challenging way to practise their typing skills will love Learn With Pokémon: Typing Adventure for Nintendo DS, coming to Australia and New Zealand on 10th January 2013 bundled with the Nintendo Wireless Keyboard. Research over 400 Pokémon – including Legendary Pokémon – in this unique, typing-based game.
As you take on the role of the latest member of the Elite Typists’ Club, your typing skills will gradually be tested to the limit as you attempt to accurately type the names of any Pokémon you come across on your journey to help Professor Quentin Werty and his assistant Paige Down with their research.
Fun for beginners and typing pros alike, Learn With Pokémon: Typing Adventure starts you off gently, with early levels only asking you to type the first letter of a Pokémon’s name before moving you on to much more complicated exercises as your typing skills develop.
By typing the name correctly, you will capture each Pokémon in your Typing Ball, allowing your team to research it.
As you progress, you will encounter increasingly rare Pokémon, including the likes of Legendary Pokémon Reshiram and Zekrom from Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version.
The game offers lessons on finger placement as well as other tips to improve the accuracy and speed of your typing. Successfully tackle both aspects to build up combos and earn high scores that will improve your overall typist rank. As you progress, you will be able to unlock up to 60 different, challenging levels, go in search of rarer Pokémon to study, and collect up to 180 medals.
Learn With Pokémon: Typing Adventure comes with a special Nintendo Wireless Keyboard
featuring the standard English language key layout, which has been made to work with this game but may also work with other Bluetooth-compatible products. The package also includes the Nintendo DS Compact Stand that can be used to position your Nintendo DS, Nintendo DSi, Nintendo DSi XL, Nintendo 3DS or Nintendo 3DS XL system as your hands use the keyboard.
Perfect for those looking to improve their typing and for fans of Pokémon adventures, Learn With Pokémon: Typing Adventure will launch for the Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS family of consoles on 10th January. For more information, please visit www.pokemon.com.au.
