Black or White?

[Blademaster]

Opinions, opinions...

[Poryhedron]

I think I'm going with White. I like the look of Yuniran and Washibon more than Gothimu and Baruchai; I think visiting White Forest would benefit me more than visiting Black City; I suspect Triple Battles will be less annoying than Rotation Battles; and I don't really care one way or the other about Reshiram and Zekrom, or Souryuu City.

I seem to remember that the good team/evil team was done in Ruby/Sapphire. One of the two teams was your enemy, and the other was your ally. (Which was which depended on which game.)

As for which one I'm getting, I don't buy all too many DS games, so I'm probably going to get both, just so I can do everything.

[Poryhedron]

It wasn't really good/evil, though. It just seemed that way. Emerald Version makes it clear that the two teams are both evil (or just misguided?) and the one that helps you is just the one that isn't actively planning any schemes at the moment.

The discussion about good/evil teams earlier in this thread was talking about A) a team that is genuinely good, who don't do things like kill/torture pokémon, perform hostile takeovers of corporations or steal submarines, versus an evil team who do all that and maybe far worse; and B) the version differences including the chance to ally yourself with the evil team. I think it's fair to say that Pokémon Colloseum's plot is the closest we'll ever get to the player being evil.

[Cueball]

Black, all the way.

Pory: The Player being evil?

[Poryhedron]

Yes, I'm pretty sure that's what Pokémaster Jeff was talking about back in mid-Page 1.

From what ive learned...

The Antagonist of this one is actually all eco-friendly. He doestnt beleive in capturing pokemon and uses a new team every time you meet him (releasing his previous team after every fight, and no i dont understand how he gets them in the first place)

Each game has a different Area. Black has a place with high level trainers for the challenge and white has an area with a higher number of wild pokemon that arent available on Black etc.

I am getting both X3 Reshiram has an awesome fire move and Zekrom has an awesome electric move i want them both X3

[IceFlowGlaceon]

Serebii.net will tell you all you needs to know about them X3

[ChobiChibi]

I just preordered White, mostly cos I don't know much of the differences between the games and my bf wants Black...

[Cammy White]

I went for White. Mainly due to version exclusives (including Zekrom.)

I got my copy today <3

Proof: (Spoilers, I guess)

That's what he claims. The truth is...

Well, I won't spoil it here. If you want to know what his true goal is, PM me.

[Blademaster]

Or you can, y'know, just play the game and find out that way.

Silly idea, I know. Just tossing it out there.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

I just fetched my Pokemon White. I found some of the graphic solutions odd such as the battling zoom thingy which revealed some flaws. However, the game was well worth its price all in all.

[Knight of Time]

I'm getting both...I already put a deposit on both games at the local EB Games near me, so when they come in, all I have to do is pay the rest of the price for each, and that'll be it for me.

[ChobiChibi]

I just got mine! Thanks, Amazon, for getting it to me 4 days earlier than I expected <3

Just wanna say... Woah. This is different. Good on Team Plasma for doing something distinctly different.

[Austrian ViceMaster Alex]

Got mine yesterday, I wanted to get Black, grabbed the box with the black Pokémon on it without reading the game title ... and it was Pokémon White.

[DarkestLight]

Yeah this game is insane, LOL! Snivy FTW so far though

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

So jealous

Also, Chobi, you lucked out!

[ChobiChibi]

Yeah I did 8D

OH! What I was MEANT to say in my last post is that I can see how the C-Gear will work with the 3DS's new wifi software. Unfortunately, my brain's too jumbled with cold-ness to explain how exactly... It just seems to have the same principles as the 3DS stuff...

Brb, brain died.

I missed out on the Celebii promotion the first time... Fortunately, my GameStop was having it a second time. Now I can get Zorua.

If you're getting the game at a GameStop and don't have the promotional Celebii yet, take your DS and game there today - it's the last day of the promotion, and you must transfer this Celebii to obtain Zorua.
