==DS Touch Pad Controls==
You can use the {{ds|Stylus}} to control the game. Most of the features mentioned in the Common Controls section can also be controlled with the Stylus thanks to a number of buttons displayed on the screen. Most of these buttons will be displayed along the right side of the screen, and have a small icon showing the button normally associated with the action, as well as some descriptive text or image telling you what the button will do.
