Mark Evans is a very talented goalkeeper and the grandson of one of the strongest goalkeepers in Japan, who supposedly died before Mark was born. Even though his skills and enthusiasm are incredible, his school lacks a real soccer club, as the six other members don't appear very interested even in training. One day, when a mysterious forward named Axel Blaze moves to Mark's town, the young goalkeeper sets out to find and recruit members for his soccer team. There are nearly 1000 playable characters with varying skills that will determine the success of the team. As you play through the story, Mark can recruit various characters on the team and help achieve his ultimate goal of competing!

I never tought that Pokemon and football (soccer) mixed together would work so well! It's basically blitzball of Final Fantasy X, but it's a refreshing perspective and a great rework, it's better in every single way. Played on Mobile DS emulator, and the mechanics are great! Unfortunately, the scouting and recruitment system is quite limited in this game. The story is cliché, it stays true to the anime, but it's quite good after all. I understand why they used American names, but they could have added an option with the original names. That’s very important for those who watched the subtitled anime version and are not from USA, as the American names were very confusing to me. The dialogues are a bit boring, but you can easily skip them. A hidden gem among football games, don’t sleep on this one. Great grinding RPG game!

Seriously? RPG elements in a fucking soccer game?
And the protagonist sucks too, they did not need to make him so annoying.

why would I ever want to grind in a touch-screen soccer game

Uno diría que después de tanto tiempo el juego hubiese envejecido, pero que va se siente tan fresco y divertido como cuando lo jugaba de chaval.

No se hace largo, las pachangas y el fichar a diferentes jugadores del 11 inicial mantienen siempre el gameplay variado (yo de crio siempre iba con los mismo, no fichaba nada)… aunque su gran pega es que es muy muy fácil. Royal Academy ganada con un 80% de posesión de balón es de coña y meterle 5 al Zeus pues tres cuartos de lo mismo.

Los siguientes juegos expanden todos los apartados en todos los sentidos, son una evolución brutal del 1, y quizá sean "objetivamente mejores" pero este fue el primero, el que se ganó el cariño de la gente y es que lo hace todo bien. Como para no ganarse el cariño de los chavales del momento.

La nostalgia no engaña, sigue siendo juegazo.
