Not sure I understand the criticism in your review. Yes, if you do not have Diamond/Pearl this title is pretty much worthless, but for someone who does have D/P and has logged 275 hours on it, Ranch is absolutely essential.
The big problem in D/P is that you cannot possibly "catch them all" and store them all at the same time. There isn't enough space. The 18 boxes, which hold 30 Pokemon a piece, plus 6 in the players party allow for only 546 Pokemon on the cart accessible to the player. There are 493 Pokemon to catch, and once you add in the multiples, such as 28 forms of Unown, 3 forms of Burmy, 4 forms of Deoxys, 25 Ditto of different natures, shiny Pokemon, etc, the whole thing becomes a mess as you approach 600 different Pokemon. You can quickly fill all 18 boxes yet not even have seen ~300 Pokemon, much less caught 200. Breeders who keep three or four boxes of Ditto have been dealing with the storage problem in the Pokemon games for several years, long before D/P.
Ranch adds 1000 more storage slots, effectively tripling the storage capacity. Of course there's nothing much else to do, that's not it's intent.
For the D/P fans that have been NEEDING this, $10 is a bargain.
