  SYDNEY--Who said the Pokémon craze was dead down under? The latest adventures of Pikachu and his pals dominated Australian game charts last week, with Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team for the Nintendo DS and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team for the Game Boy Advance landing in the number one and two spots.

  The Pokémon titles knocked the PlayStation 2 version of Lego Star Wars II from the top spot in the overall top 10 charts, according to data trackers GfK Australia.

  Sales figures for the week of September 25 to October 1 showed Lego Star Wars II had fallen to number five behind the two new Pokémon titles, with Kingdom Hearts II taking the third spot and FIFA 07 for the PlayStation 2 in fourth. Although it had already been out for months in Japan and the US, Kingdom Hearts II was released in Australia at the end of September.

  Flying the flag for the Xbox 360 in the overall top 10 were Test Drive Unlimited and Saints Row. Test Drive Unlimited slipped three places back this week to land at number seven, while Saints Row made it back into the top 10 after a couple of weeks out of the charts.

  All sales stats, including console-by-console breakdowns, can be found below:
