The names of your legendaries are reversed. A bigger picture of the new region has been released/found. It looks like we're going to see an airport for the first time ever in Pokemon.

[Rockojoe2]

Haha woops -edits- hmmmm airport.... Would it be like the Goldenrod train station? D:

Anyone got a favorite Pokemon game? Mine would have to be G/S/C/HG/SS, simply due to the fact that we were able to travel to TWO regions <3.

[kickgramp]

man i suck at pokemon. when i first got da game, i would only focus on one pokemon and -attempt- to beat da game. but yeah my favorites come from da good old gameboy color.

[qster]

Anyone still a fan of this long running series of collecting, battling, and training, originally starting in Japan, which was known as Pocket Monsters? Seen any recent episodes in the several seasons of the anime? What is your regular team? Your opinion on the upcoming pokemon in Pokemon Black and White versions? Discuss it all here!

Mine two and for the same reason. 16 badges was awesome. I wouldnt mind a pokemon game that includes all the regions & badges as that would be epic.

[Anorgos]

I really liked playing the old pokemon games too. G/S/C were some of my favorites, and reflecting back on them all, I believe I've played at least one game from every generation of them. The latest one I played recently was actually Platinum, and while I had played it before, playing it from the beginning really made it fun all over again. I possibly might even look into buying HG or SS in the see-able future ^^

I'd suggest to wait first. There's another Pokemon game coming out soon.

Pokemon Black and Pokemon White, so really whats the redo game going to be called Pokemon Grey? Bleh.

Why didnt they just use the secondary colors first? Purple and Orange

The titles black and white are kinda better compared to the gems, crystal, etc IMO. I didn't understand how red, blue and yellow became gold silver and crystal.

Just wait for Pokemon Solid and Liquid. I know they'll make that eventually. Need to actually get creative with their names. I mean.. I know the games and series has been drawn out incredibly long, but dang man, don't need to make crappy titles to go along with it as well.

[Secret Igshar]

So like. I'm outrageously excited for the next generation of Pokemon. Every one that's been spoiled so far online has me giddy, since I can count the ones that are less-than-awesome on one hand.

I'm excited by the potential of the starters to actually look good. The battle system looks exactly the same, though VASTLY more dynamic. The other mechanics in the game just make me squeal with joy. Wild double battles whenever I want? Heck yes. Seasons changing every month? Win. I'm just... over-the-top ecstatic about everything I've seen of the games so far.

Best news so far, though, bar none:

At least 150 brand new Pokemon with no old one appearing until VERY late game (most probably post-pokemon league). I dunno, I can't say much bad about how the new games seem to be shaping up. I'm really looking forward to what kinds of new and interesting type combos and attacks they make for this game. I just hope the triple battles aren't as rare as double battles have been up to this point. =X

Thought you were naming new games for a second there.

Lulz Solidus. I had to go there.

O_o anyone notice how the anime is being called Best Wishes? Is it because calling the season Black and White would sound more stupid than Best Wishes?

[hercules]

I assume so, They just like to make the anime somewhat related to the game...but Best Wishes isn't exactly the best choice..and
I take it It's going to be much better than D/P or Battle Dimension?

[Valor]

It's called Best Wishes because that's what they say before they go off on a journey. It also alludes to Black and White.

[Bunny]

For some reason the thought of a new Pokemon anime has me slightly intrigued, I might actually have to watch a few episodes of this one before adding it to my list of "dun watch it again" like the others seasons.

Not sure if it was just told on last page but any official release date for the anime?

[Secret Igshar]

As far as a release date, I dunno. They've only said it'd roll around in September this year in Japan. It'll probably start up the week of or the week after the Black/White release date (9/18/10). I don't really follow the Anime much, so I don't know when it usually starts up in relation to the games' releases, so I can't give a clear idea... >_>;

Sinnoh League seems to be wrapping up, though, since they're on the semi-finals this week, so I dunno. There's probably this episode and two more after it before we jump to Best Wishes.


Interesting news from Serebii! :o

Nintendo has also issued a press release stating that Pokémon Black & White have already exceeded 1 million pre-orders making them the fastest selling DS games in history. They expect for the games to reach 1.5 million pre-orders before the game launches. This indicates that the franchise is running strong

Which is everyone going to be getting? Black or White? I'm leaning towards Black myself. The exclusives for it so far seem better then White. We don't know a lot of course but I'm liking what I'm seeing with Black so far. I'll probably eventually pick both up but first I'm going with Black.

Really liking the fact that we'll be seeing new Pokemon for a long while before getting olds ones. I really like that fact. Makes it feel like it's not something we've done before countless times.

[Secret Igshar]

For me at the moment it is completely dependent on whether or not the Pokemon White cartridge is white. If it is, I'm getting it hands down. Otherwise, I'm getting Black while Rae Rae gets White. I have a white DS, so a white cartridge would be badass. I basically wanted White while Rae gets Black because that's our DS Lite colors lolz. SUPERRACIST. He really wants White because of Zekrom. We'll see how that goes.

As far as the new pokemon, god damn are they beautiful. I honestly can only think of a couple of them that I dislike. I'm so excited for this game uvhfuvnrfvc I don't even.

[Xanius]

I'm liking Gochiruzeru and Gigaiasu. Really sad about Zekrom I thought he was going to be on Black. Kinda annoys the hell out of me. It's the only reason I may actually go with White. It really depends on the pokemon for each. If White gets another great pokemon.. then I'll have to go with it. But I have a fully black DSi Lite.. and I'd love Black for it. D:
