I like using them. Then again, I certainly don't care about times.

I learned how to use the blue hints with this game, and now I greatly appreciate them.

@ShanaUnite: Many only activate at the beginning of a level. Many missions are impassable (and therefore you can't get the picrites) unless you use powerups at the beginning of a puzzle. It's not a big deal, but it does mean either playing a puzzle in (basically) easy mode, or playing it again after you already know the solution. I just do the latter. Waste of in-game energy though.

I have them all and enjoy them, but the first Picross e game has the least content - start with 4 or 5 (IMHO). There are bonuses in some of the Picross e games if you have purchased others in the series. None are essential and they all look, play and feel identical pretty much. The addition of Micross and Mega Picross in the later games help increase longevity. I don't personally like the Mega Picross games but love the Micross and wish there were more of them.

@6ch6ris6 I've heard that Picross e6 gives the most play time.

I can attest to this, as it has the most hours logged in; however, I'm around half-way through Pokémon Picross (I haven't beaten the standard game yet, I'm currently going through every single level and trying to 100% it from the very beginning so I won't have to do as much backtracking post-game, and I'm doing the Alt-levels as well) and I've currently eclipsed my Picross e6 playtime (which was around 26 hours).

So by my estimation, Pokémon Picross contains at least twice the content of Picross e6, however, as I haven't completed the game 100% yet, I'm not certain as to how much more content there is to see. I've put around 33 hours into the game so far and I'm only halfway through the game, so I do feel that I've gotten my money's worth from the game, even though it's still quite expensive for what it is.

Picross e3 to e6 are pretty much identical, gameplay wise. I can't recall there being any new features being introduced to the Picross e games after Picross e3. If I'm not mistaken, Picross e4 introduced the bonus stages, which gives you 5 extra stages for each previous Picross e game that you own. Subsequent games also include bonus stages but they only offer bonuses for the first three Picross e games and no bonus stages for owning e4 or e5 in e6.

Don't worry, the game saves frequently and seamlessly. One thing that I've noticed is if you quit the game during a puzzle, then the recovery period for your Pokémon will begin the next time you start the game, so it would be best to quit the puzzle before quitting the game, especially if you happen to be using legendary Pokémon (which take 24-30 hours each to recover, and they cannot be recovered with Picrites).

So... I've completed all of the Standard and Alt-Mode puzzles, and unlocked all of the medals except for those that are not possible to unlock due to the password-locked stages.

I've currently clocked in nearly 70 hours, which about 3-4x more than my average Picross e game. It's still relatively expensive, but not too much so.

Cheers, Rikaria. I thought that only the Japanese passwords had been revealed. I've found them all. Thanks.

Does anyone remember when you finally get a Pokemon that can do Slash Reveal? I have gotten all the Pokemon through Area 10 and still don't have one.

When you do the medals for doing teams (#78 - 99) you can set them up in a team but then go back to world 0 and do a tutorial stage and it still counts. What is interesting is that when you do electric pokemon their slow down skills are not automatically used (I assume because skills are not available in the tutorial), so no risk of a cool down if you do them there. Since the pokeball stage takes seconds I was able to blast through those medals in no time. Setting up the teams was more time consuming.

Finally found a 20x15 Slash Reveal Pokémon. There have been so many missions which require that kind of Pokémon. It's in area 19.

It's its, not it's.
