it's rather small... it's got a diameter of 2 inches roughly (I'm guessing... can't find my ruler) and it has 2 backs: a flat one so it's smaller for your pocket, and one with a clip so you can put it on a belt.
I was under the impression that you could bring this thing along for a run and level a pokemon. But looking at the Pokewalker description page Serebii put up it has wild pokemon found, items, courses etc. I'm now a little confused as to what you're supposed to do with this thing..
Can anyone explain please? Thanks.
You can level pokemon up on it, and while you walk you gain things called 'watts' in addition to exp. The watts are then used to catch pokemon and find items in courses on the pokewalker, and to unlock new courses to catch more pokemon and find more items.
It's been said that they gain Happiness.
It also seems as if You don't learn moves at all when you level up on pokewalker. Which sucks because my mareep is useless against the first gym now because it didn't learn thundershock
At any rate, I will be removing my Togepi from the 'Walker in a few days to see if it is happy enough to evolve yet. *crossing fingers for a level 2 / 3 Togetic*
After all, you wouldn't want your Poke levelling up too much in the beginning so it wouldn't obey you.
