In Colosseum, in story mode (if I'm remembering correctly, you can't call pokemon in collosseum mode), you could call your pokemon to:

Get a shadow pokemon out of hyper mode
Wake a sleeping pokemon
Stall (have the pokemon skip that turn)

This made awaken useless. Now, in Gales of Darkness, you can call your pokemon to:

Get a shadow pokemon out of reverse mode
Wake a sleeping pokemon
Stall (have the pokemon skip that turn)
Increase that pokemon's accuracy

Thus making X-Accuracy obsolete, not that anyone used it much to start with. This actually opens up some tactical possibilities for durable pokemon with low accuracy attacks. I don't know how great the increase is. There are hints in the game that calling your pokemon may have other effects as well. Note that none of the in-game players seem to know about calling their pokemon.

It is very nice. For Pokémon with a move like Thunder, just call them once and it's just about guaranteed to hit each time now.

I use CALL on my Rosela(sp?) to help ensure Leech Seed and GrassWhistle (which is a bitch [Razz]

)

It actually makes more sense to call a pokemon with several inaccurate moves. One is tempted to team a poke that has shadow mist (is that the name of the accuracy reducing move?) or sweet scent with a pokemon that knows a 0hko move and several inaccurate ones. First turn: sweet scent and call. Second turn: rock and roll.
