Same. Especially since you get a fire monkey before the first gym if you take the water starter.

Anyone here has Black

looking for Daigeki and a extra water monkey.

You can find both in the wild in White too, by the way.

i know but don't have the patience to look for a shaky patch. Besides the Dageki is like 5%.

If it's got pokemon in the name im buyin it. simple as that

[Bonta Kun]

So got my copy today and wow, simple wow!

Soul Silver was the 1st pokemon game I played in years and I thought it was great, alot lot better from the 1st gen stuff I first played but damn Black and White take it even further.

I'm really really really liking this alot.

Went with Oshawott for my first pokemon, hoping he's decent!

[Von Himmel]

Oshawott is cool compared to the others. I've never really seen its stat distribution but I think he's much stronger than the other two.

[SOGESNAKE]

Pre-ordered Black yesterday, will be heading out on Sunday to pick it up along with that special Celebi which'll unlock something in Black.


Spent alot of today just trading some of my Pearl Pokemon to Silver~

[SilverSyko]

Still 2 days till the American release. I'm gonna be getting White version.

I'll be picking Snivy as my starter.

Samurott (Oshawott) has the best Special Attack.
Serperior (Snivy) has the best defenses and speed.
Emboar (Tepig) has the highest HP and Attack.

All three though, have the same stat totals at 528. I'm slightly disappointed in the low speed stats of Samurott and Emboar, but Samurott's too cool to pass up.

If you are talking about in-game, then most certainly so.
That Fire Daruma (Hihidaruma/whatever the English name is) is better than Tepig.
Snivy is outclassed by Liligant (was it? Doreidia)
Oshawott............... really doesn't have a rival like the other two. Plus he learns False Swipe.

So been at it for a good few hours and going great but I do have 1....I gotta admit major problem with this game.
Something I've always hated is when developers create something that works perfectly fine and probably ever only needs updating or some small improvements in some areas but when the 2nd ver comes along they end up completely butchering that great creation with whatever daft ideas they have.
And something like that has happened here, I'm really not liking the menus here.
I like to switch between using the buttons and touch screen regularly, just a habit I got but with B&W I can't really do that.
Touch screen is barely used for the menus and even for scrolling texts. I don't know if my game is faulty but thats rather annoying.

I like some stuff like the ready menu, nice idea however not completely thought out properly cause instead of showing up on the touch screen where it really should, it shows up on the top and I have to use the D-pad.
Stuff like that can irk me somewhat.

Thing is I will rate a game on how good it is by how it's menus work(obviously not just that but certain games it can be a main factor, like RPGs, games that use em alot)

Other than that yea great game!

[SOGESNAKE]

So I picked up my copy of Black earlier, and well....


As for visuals, this game is top par; it looks fantastic. Plotwise so far it looks like it's gonna be an average Pokemon plot, though with a somewhat darker twist. Really, the only problem with the game I have is the Pokemon that look like something I could've thrown it all down on paper in Pre-school.

[FDW]

(copied from a post of mine on another forum about the same topic)

I got my black version, my white version, and my collectors edition guide. I'm not going to start playing though until I finish Soul Silver. (Though going through the guide to find out what the areas actually looked like for the first time was nice.)

I'm gonna have to agree that most of the new pokemon I've seen won't be winning any beauty contests, really can't wait till I can get my hands on some last gen ones.

I've now found my most annoying problem with this game, having to hold B down to run. Why they took out the feature from SS/HG is beyond me.

Besides that still loving it. It's really a matter of they added some great stuff but then taken away equally useful or needed stuff.

Can't wait to capture me a Zekrom!

[FlareKnight]

Yeah I have to agree that design wise they really dropped the ball this gen. At least they've improved a lot of things so there is still good reason to have the game.

Going to pick it up in a couple days which gives me time to figure out which starter I want. Not the best trio they've come up with. My only hope is that the next pokemon games can avoid the fire/fighting combination since they've kind of done it to death.

[GDB]

I'm going to wait until Gray version. For some reason, these two versions just don't interest me at all. First time I won't be getting a "v1" Pokemon game, and first time since Yellow that I'd be getting a "v2".

I am relieved to hear Gray version will be released because there was a rumor that it might not be on sale.

We Japanese are waiting for your coming to the random match and challenging us.
