I really hope that this is just how it looks when you're looking at it from an image and not when actually playing the game on your Nintendo DS...

i hope so too but they made it like that for the color blind people too lol.
 
I can see it easily. Maybe thats because I have 20/15 vision. LOL

I agree it maybe hard for some people to read. it looks like engraved formatting.

i mean it looks like some weird shade of gray or silver probaly my screen is too bright.the backround of it makes it more 3d i think and visually easier to c for the color blinded no ones perfect.

It looks like that to me too. It's engraved formatting.

It is too bright, but at least it won't damage my vision. I have looked at worser writing, but not as much as I wil have to look at that. And 20/15 vision is priceless.

Color blind? Why can't they just write it in the same font and color as the PP information then? Surely they can see black and white?

Not all colorblind people see black and white. Most get the colors Red and Green mixed up.

Anyways, yes the font sucks and makes me want to cut myself.

Well surely they can distinguish a bright color from a dark color? >_>; I don't know. And everything else is in that standard black font, why not the attack names?

And yeah, the font does suck. Hopefully it'll look better on the actual screen.

I dont think its the black that makes it suck, I think it is more of the inside color of the letters. It makes the names blend in with the yellow backround, and the font still sucks.

You guys do realize that you're looking at a screenshot emulated image, correct? They are NOT that difficult to read when actually playing on your DS.

THIS is how it looks like on the actual DS:

And so you know, the font style DID NOT change from the Japanese version.

See how near identical they are in emulated format? Notice how different it is when actually playing the game?
