The biggest problem I have with colo is that you've got to get to a PC to save, so if you're miles from a PC and want to save you gotta trail back to save and then trail back to where you were. XD is like the handhelds-you can pretty much save anywhere and anywhen.

I prefer Colloseum. It has a much, much better plot and an extremely cool array of Pokemon. XD is mostly Kanto Pokemon, all of which are easily obtainable in FR/LG, while Colloseum's Johto Pokemon are diffacult to get in this gen otherwise.
Plus, you probably need to play Colloseum inorder to understand XD in the first place.

While I prefer XD on the whole to Collosseum, due to easier to purify pokemon, saving anywhere & a few other things, I feel collosseum needs to be played before to understand the plot a whole lot better. It's still a really good game & the free memory card is a good bonus.

yeah, thanks for replying, once you've purified a pokemon on xd, can you trade it to the other games????

Yes. After they are purified they can be traded, and I'd go with Colo 1st, especially if you need the Pokemon for your Dex.

XD is short, Colo is hard, which do you prefer? I think Colo is a bit better though
 
I think you should get Colo first. It started the whole "Shadow Pokemon Incident," and has a great story plot! But, the only problem is that you need to go to a PC to save, and it sorta has bad graphics. And XD, it may have good graphics, and you can be able to save anywhere (like a Pokemon GameBoy game), but it continued from Colo. And, if you just play it, you'd probably get too confused. So, I think you should get Colo first. ^^
 
I would get Collosseum because the Pokemon are a lot better and the Battle Now mode is pretty cool too (I play it almost as much as I play the story mode).

I got XD first, then afterwards Colusseum. I liked Colusseum better though. It seemed like more of a challenge to me. So I think you should get Colo first, then XD afterwards.

I would get Colo first because I don't think you'd enjoy it as much after playing XD because in XD you're not restricted to mostly Johto only pokemon. Plus the saving at PCs only thing is a drag. Both games are fun though!

Get Colosseum first, then get XD

Get both, but play Colosseum first. XD is easier (the Pokemon are much easier to purify) and you can save anywhere you want.
