Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs just doesn't offer enough depth to appeal to most hardcore Pokemon fans. There are some elements that appeal to Pokemon sensibilities, like being able to upgrade and customize your capture styler by distributing skill points to various stats as you see fit. The bottom line though is that Guardian Signs is a great game for small children, but is too simplistic for the rest of people.

GamingExcellence - Pokemon Rangers: Guardian Signs is the third in the Pokemon Rangers installation. It's all about the Pokemon Rangers; a group of individuals whose sole duty is to make sure that relations between Pokemon and humans are going well and that Pokemon aren't being mistreated. An altogether perfect set up for a role playing game involving Pokemon.
Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs is solid, competent, and not without charm, but repetitive mechanics and a lack of depth render it a game best suited to younger or more inexperienced gamers looking for an easy entry to the franchise.
