You begin just like Ash in Pallet Town and you get your first Pokémon. You see like in the anime a Gengar and Nidorino fighting on tv and all the rest of the beginning in 3-D! When Ash has to go to Professor Oak for getting his first Pokémon the game really does begin. You have to run to Professor Oak in a few minutes. You have to watch out for tree's, Pokémon,... When you're there you get Pikachu and your journey begins!

Is everything there from the anime?
No, but all the important things and few things that are not in the anime.

Yes, it has: Pokédex, Pokémon, bag and the other things.
Does Ash takes his Pokédex too, like in the anime for an explanation about some Pokémon?
Yes, with every Pokémon you see, that you didn't saw yet, Ash takes his Pokédex.
Even when you're controlling an other character at that moment?
Yes.
Are there minigames or something like that?
Well, there's a kind of...
I'll tell you about this later.
Can we still battle Wild Pokémon?
Yes, you can still battle against Wild Pokémon, but there's no grass where you can find them, when you walk around you see them walking around too, if you come too close, they'll attack you first and begin the battle. This is one of those things that are not in the anime.
How can we begin a battle against a Wild Pokémon without them beginning?
Attack them in the back or some Pokémon don't attack you themself and then you also can begin the fight.
How do we begin a battle against a trainer?
Same way. Only they won't attack you, but ask you and then you still can choose no. Some 'bad' trainers don't ask you and begin the fight right away. You can recognize them by a [COLOR="Red]![/COLOR] above their head. Team Rocket, Team Aqua, Team Magma and Team Galactic also begins without asking.
You didn't explain those special abilities yet
O yes, I almost forgetted that. I'll explain them now.
Running: If you use this you can run for a while. To gain your run energy back, you need some food.
Cooking: If your Pokémon are hurt, you can cook food to give them their energy back. You need some bread to feed them. You can buy this at a shop.
Motivating: If you play longer then 5 hours in a row, the characters (except Misty, May and Dawn) are not motivated anymore. With this ability you can restore their motivation. If the characters are not motivated: they can't run and the Pokémon their stats become 10 lower each. You can use this 2 times per day.
Remembering: When you're going to a gym the character with this ability will remember you on this each day, you play this game.
Showing map: The character with this ability has the map and only when you're this character you can see the map. If there's nobody with this ability, your map wil be with Ash.
Calming mad Pokémon: Mad Pokémon are the Pokémon who attack you themself. If you're using the character with this ability you can stop it and you can go away. You can use this once per day.
Contesting: Only the character with this ability can do contests.
Coming where others can't come: This character can: go in tree's (for having a beautiful vision from where you are), Can sneak through a door,...
Getting mad: This character becomes mad sometimes and don't want to fight then.
Calming Jessie: This character can calm down Jessie when she gets mad. You can use this 3 times per day.
Can you capture Pokémon yourself or can you only catch the Pokémon that they have in the anime?
Only the Pokémon they have in anime, sorry, BUT you can level them up as high as you want (till they must leave like in anime).
So, you'll have to do it slow if you want them on the highest level?
No, when you completed a level (yes there are levels) you can play this level again when you want and the Pokémon there levels will be just like when you last played with them, and then you can use the Pokémon you want to play the level! This is a kind of minigame.
Can you choose language?
No and yes, they speak English and you can't change this(yes they speak), but this also has subtitles and you can change the language for that!
What are the languages for the subtitles?
English
Japanese
German
Dutch
You sad it was 3-d in the beginning. Do you mean with this that it will look like Pokémon XD, Pokémon Colloseum and Pokémon Battlerevolution?
Yes, only when you fight, the screen will not change.
Is there Wi-Fi for this game?
No, I'm sorry.
