well unless the first 3 routes are all Bidoof, it can't be less entertaining than Black and White where.
Seriously, the beginning was just painful from the choices you had to work with.
By the 6th gym you finally started being able to encounter some decent things.

Speaking of which, I also hope that the gyms aren't build RIGHT NEXT TO an aria that contains nothing but pokemon that gym is weak against. What the fuck BW?

>I haven't found one
Did you even look at page 0?


>>24543

>>25050
To be fair, I never mentioned the names of the games in the title.

>Doujins with New Bianca.
My body is ready.

>>25056
Still needs more Juniper, Jessie, Adult Misty, and Clair

Also:
>Cheren is now a Normal-type Gym Leader, replacing Lenora and giving out the Basic Badge. He is the first Gym Leader while Homika, the Poison-type Gym Leader with the guitar, is the second. Bianca gives you your first Pokemon on behalf of Prof. Juniper.
Hurray for acknowledging your old 'friends'. to some extent... or something. At least the translator is different this time (I think) so maybe all the dialog won't be clunky and awkward this time.

>N has disappeared and nobody knows where he is, including Team Plasma. Team Plasma and the Sages will still be in the game, though in what capacity we do not know yet.
Boo for Cobr- Team Plasma still being in the game along with N.

>PokeWood (Pokemon+Hollywood) will apparently involve filming a movie: you pick a scenario, then fight in several Pokemon battles. Perhaps battling against the mecha Tyranitar is how you film part of your movie.

>As stated yesterday, the "World Tournament" feature allows you to battle past Gym Leaders and Elite Four Champions. So far, Cynthia, Green (Gary), Brock, Misty, Lt. Surge, Erika, Janine, Blaine, Giovanni, Volkner, Steven Stone, and Lance are confirmed participants.
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

Am I the only one increasingly disliking all this new info? Except for Bianca with glasses (which I love) and less N (I just thought he was creepy and got on my nerves), it's like they decided to remove everything I liked about Black and White.

>>25059
Which was?

>>25060
The female trainer being a tomboy, the designs for the legendaries being relatively simple, the black female gym leader, the female professor, all things I'd been waiting for for awhile.

>>25061
Female professor is still in, she's just on the opposite side of the country and 'the black female gym leader', like most of the other gym leaders in the game, was completely bland and forgettable.

Black and white was pretty bad in a lot of ways, but great in others. Nothing they've revealed so far save the very stupid look for the poison gym leader has ruffled my feathers much.
As a matter of fact it's the first time in a while I kind of feel like I'm looking forward to a Pokemon game.

What are you doing game freak. Bianca was already HNNNNNGH before you added glasses. I might really die this time.

> To celebrate the release of Black 2 & White 2, there will be a special Meloetta based Pokémon Musical to download for Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 on the Pokémon Global Link from July 14th. It also confirmed that the characters in the World Tournament are downloaded via the Nintendo WiFi Connection. Finally, it states that Meloetta unlocks something in Black 2 & White 2 other than its move Relic Song and that Keldeo unlocks something in Black 2 & White 2, with a picture indicating it's the Secret Sword move tutor

Meh I thought it wasn't as good as it's predecessor. I mean it had a lot of the same elements but while the morality mechanic was nice and could even be considered innovative when the first one was out it just feels boring and trite here. I was pretty unimpressed with the game as a whole.

... wait what're YOU guys talking about?

>First, it confirms the team is Team Plasma and that the Shadow Triad return. It also confirms Elesa's return as a Gym Leader in Nimbasa City, that part of the region does appear frozen and that Achroma doesn't agree with Team Plasma's current ideals.
>Team Plasma returns
BOY OH BOY I CAN'T WAIT. </sarcasm>

MAN I REMEMBER WHEN ALL THE POKEMON TRAINERS MORE OR LESS LOOKED LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE SO THAT THE LITTLE KIDS PLAYING THE GAME WOULD RELATE TO THEM. MAN, I REALLY MISS THAT.

Ever since we got that girl Kris with the hair that made her look like she was being skullfucked by a Gengar, the designs have been going downhill.

>>25145

>MORE OR LESS LOOKED LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE

First female we got in Pokemon had blue hair.

The tradeoff is we get ridiculous hairstyles instead of impossible hair colours.

>>25145
Lyra's headgear is pretty tame, really.

Then again she also wears short overalls.

>>25145

I have never cared what the protags looked like. I mean it's a Japanese game, you should expect some anime-looking characters. At least every main character in the series doesn't look like the Red/Blue trainer.

>>25146
Honestly, fantastical hair colors are not uncommon in many things. Styles however, are straight up bad Japanese design. It wasn't always this way.

As long as the sprites look decent, I could care less. The character art could be good but the sprite is crap, you know? At the same time, I'm still getting used to the elongated sprites. They just look off somehow.

The female protagonist's not so bad, she's got some anime but it's controlled. That male protagonist though, goddamn. He'd be fine without that unbelievably awful hair. I doubt they'll ever really drop that slight (but definitely not strong) real world sensibility Pokemon's been known for.

>>25154
Don't forget the fact he'ss wearing both shorts AND tights. It's cute though that his mom let him dress himself, but he looks like a total weenie.

>>25155

He's wearing a swimming suit with clothes over it.

【公式】『ポケットモ…

>>25157
He needs a surfboard now. Not as entertaining as the hair, but at least it makes sense.

>>25155
>>25157
They're all wearing wetsuits, actually. At least the protags and the rival are. Look at them.

As long as it gives you the ability to rebattle the trainer NPCs you fought earlier in the game I'm happy.

Seriously Black and White 1? You don't give us any equivalent of the VS. Seeker? Tha fuck?

>>25166
Considering how MASSIVELY awesome and expansive that HG and SS where in terms of features, Black and White was just pathetic and felt like a total step backwards.

I never used the Vs. Seeker, ever. In any game. For any reason.

>>25168
Yeah but you PokeSav'd your Pokemon. For peeps who actually go through the fucking arduous punishment from God that is EV training the proper way, it's ridic useful.

>>25169
guys like me.

>>25169
And not just EV training. Fighting Rich Kids or Ace Trainers over and over is a good way to get money.

>>25171
Well, ok, but what are you gonna buy? All the good stuff is locked in the Battle Whatever and they've gotten rid of the game corner in western releases. You might as well do E4 runs with your starting team.

>>25172
Vitamins.
For EV training.
Really it all comes down to the VS Seeker being designed to make EV training as not-quite-as-awful as possible.

>>25173
Right, forgot about those. Clearly I don't EV train enough.

>>25169
I was only able to use Pokesav for a limited window. After that, I was stuck with Power items, a list of common wild Pokemon, a calculator, and an hour or two to kill.

>>25172

breeding. That daycare is taking me to the cleaners!

Daycare wish list:
Guy who can determine a pokemons hidden power move (IE: EV reader)
Move Tutor
Move Deleter
Someone who can teach a pokemon an egg move if you have a pokemon that's in the same egg group as that pokemon and has learned it
A nice long clear stretch of land outside the daycare to to waste time on until an egg happens. Also Dittos live in the grass around it.

>>25172
In addition to what >>25173 said, there are generally a handful of TM's at the Department Store in each game that are worth buying. Or maybe you just want to buy the chips in the Casino to get whatever prizes that's offering.

>>25180
... so ya, there really isn't much to do with money if all the good gear is locked away in the battle tower.

>>25183
Vitamins you dullard. They're expensive as shit and hella useful. As long as you keep training new Pokemon instead of picking a team of 6 and sticking with them, you'll be buying new vitamins. You'll be spending 200,000 Pokedollars per Pokemon if you just wanna train up two stats.
