Are out in... a month almost exactly. I'm excited, whose getting it?

Typical.
Been playing since the beginning and new Pokemon are exciting.

Anyway...

I have been waiting for these games ever since they were announced Last April.
I simply can't wait. They look beautiful! <3

How do you not fall in love with that!? That's like, not even the beginning though.
I pre-ordered both. <3

It's all 3-D like :3

Do you know if you can have pokémon follow you still? I'll only get it if I can walk around with my pokémon. I hated Diamond and Pearl, boring and with the new pokémon and such. SoulSilver and HeartGold were awesome, since it was a long-needed remake. No new pokémon. But I could run around with my Vaporeon following me ^_^

Though I hate the new pokémon, I'll give 3-D graphics game a chance if pokémon can follow you.

It reminds me of the N64 games. I loved how realistic they were compared to the GBA games. (Yeah, I'm a purist when it comes to my childhood obsessions)

Suicune
February 7th, 2011, 08:03 PM
In certain parts of the game Pokemon do follow you, yes and no.
Even though they don't always follow you I still think you should give it a try at least.
You can catch wild Vaporeon, by the way. :D

Black version has the cool white legendary yes?
I'll get black ^_^

My only concern has always been that starting from Generation IV... they stopped looking like pokémon if you know what I mean :/

Sapphire and Ruby didn't bother me nearly as much as Diamond and Pearl. I think it's just nostalgia, Sapphire being my first ever game. It just seems like they're trying too hard on the pokémon when their best ones were quite simple.

Suicune
February 7th, 2011, 08:32 PM
Black is the one with the beautiful white legendary, yes. :D

And I sort of know what you mean by "Not looking like Pokemon" but most, I think, were nice.

And with Black and White a lot of people are saying that Nintendo's "Going back to the basics" with the Pokemon, a lot of them have that "Original" feel.

I can't wait until they come out, the newer graphics alone looks orgasmic, and from what little I've read of the plot line, it's a bit different, mostly with the antagonist group.

I do agree with Rith that the pokemon are getting less and less like 'pokemon' though, so that's a bit disappointing.

Nonetheless, like a true pokefag, I HAVE to get the new version when it comes out, lol

Suicune
February 7th, 2011, 08:38 PM
Well the antagonists are a bit different this time, they're sort of like hipsters and are against owning Pokemon. But I hear there are plot twists (Yeah, I'm surprised too.)
And for once there's sadness. D:

It's just 3 weeks away!!! >.<

Oh I know! They're finally adding things a lot of people have been asking for.

And I love how they keep bringing stuff back from the old games too.

I also hear they're going to be far more difficult from the past games, something else we needed.

-Lol, you have friends now XD Before, it seemed like the only person who liked you was your mother, then all you had was a rival.
-Girl professor for once :P
-There are some damn cute new pokémon :3 I don't like the starters that much though (I think I'm going with the grass one).
-I like the seasons concept. I don't like that it takes a month to change however.

Suicune

You don't like the monthly seasons? But why not? I like it because the game won't get boring if the game's always changing.

Syvelocin
February 7th, 2011, 10:34 PM
It takes me less than a month to beat the games, excluding SoulSilver. More like a week, but you said this one will be harder though, so I say a month.

Suicune
February 7th, 2011, 10:43 PM
I suppose that'll be the average time it'll take to beat it.
However the aftergame is always fun with all the new features and other stuff and whatnot.

Unless you trade. I used to be a really bored youth. Well, I collected every-single pokémon on Diamond, up through the fourth generation. Just trade them onto the game, it'll still work I believe you just won't get credit for it in your pokédex yet.

It is not a trade between 4th Gen and 5th Gen, it's a permanent transfer.

My point stil stands. No old pokemon till the dex is done. It's like what fire red was, when I got my golbat to full happiness it started to evolve, then stopped because I hadn't got the national dex yet.

February 9th, 2011, 07:47 PM
As good as the game looks, I'm actually pretty concerned that it'll be more of the same thing a la Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, which turned me off the two previous main Pokemon games. The trailers looks to change some things up, which is always a good thing, but I'm not sold yet on buying it. Will wait to get a Nintendo 3DS (Which is backward compatible with Nintendo DS titles, mind you) and see if it's worth getting.

Suicune
February 9th, 2011, 08:08 PM
I will tell you right now, having test-driven these games, it is nowhere NEAR Diamond and Pearl, and that's a good thing.

Camazotz
February 9th, 2011, 09:23 PM
Waiting anxiously for the game, but I'm willing to hold off for a few weeks after its release to get reviews from friends. But I'll probably get it anyway, after I purchase my 3DS.

So, Black or White? Im thinking of getting White cause it has more exclusive Pokemon, but not sures. :3

Suicune
February 10th, 2011, 07:48 PM
Well White has, of course the exclusives, and it also has the White Forest (Black has the Black City, derp) and the 8th Gym Leader is Iris instead of Drayden.
Those are the differences of White off the top of my head.

I'm a little uncertain if I want to try it or not. Kinda seems like the creators don't even try to create Poke'mon, anymore. lol.

I mean, there's a flaming chandelier Pokemon, lol.
That's kinda cool, I suppose. And if I get Pokemon Black, I'll definitely catch that one.

Just doesn't seem very original, imo. :b

Not that Pokemon like Krabby (who would've guessed it to be a crab, right?) were, but still. lol. x)

Then the game would always be the same, nobody would play it, and you'd be begging for something new.

Shandera, a Pokemon based on the Hitodama (Or Wil-o'-The-Wisp) and a chandelier.

http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/0/02/129Magikarp.png
Magikarp, a carp.

Since when do Pokemon have to be original? They never have been.

Syvelocin
February 20th, 2011, 07:02 PM
Black version and Snivy :) His later evolutions are the least painful in my opinion, as far as looks.

I don't think originality is the term we're looking for. I think charm is a better term. Gen IV and V lack a certain charm that Gen I-III had. Soul Silver and Heart Gold, like someone said, were awesome games. It was the modernization that D&P had, but the old Pokémon. I hated D&P pokes, loved the DS version. Black and White seem to improve on the Pokémon bit, but they still don't have the same charm.

I feel incredibly bad for the younger part of this generation/the new generation. I don't know, I just wouldn't want to be raised on Diamond. I was raised on Sapphire, which wasn't too bad, and I ended up getting Silver and Blue versions later. Though I watched the original anime even before getting the games. The anime has gone downhill as well.

I'm a purist, sorry :P

Well that's just your perception of the series as you and it has gotten older.
Just remember that these are going to be some kids original 151. (Technically there's 156, but yeah.)

And I can see what you mean by the anime, Hoenn's anime was ok. I skipped the entire DP saga except the beginning and end, but Black & White's saga is actually entertaining to me again. It might be because Team Rocket doesn't blast off anymore, and that Brock finally got the boot. But I'm back to watching it.

MadManWithaBox
February 21st, 2011, 03:42 PM
Black and white's anime is actually pretty good. Getting rid of Brock was good, he was boring since he didn't do anything important in the last series at all. Plus team rocket don't seem shit anymore.

Some stores fucked up and gave some customers their copies already, which makes me a bit jealous. But this happens all the time. D:

I feel kind of weird about the release coming so soon.

I've been so excited since last February that my excitement has like run out and I feel like I'll be bored with the game. D:

Although I felt the same way for HeartGold and SoulSilver, until the day before and I couldn't sleep. xD

This Poké Transfer thing sounds interesting. I like that I won't have to borrow a friend's DS to move my pokémon between games. I guess it's like migrating from GBA games? And there's no limit, thankfully, unlike the once a day rule for migrating.

The one per day limit was eliminated back when HGSS came out. :P

You still need 2 DS's though. Apparently.

I really want to get this, but I think I'd better finish SoulSilver first.

And I'll need some money...

This is a big step for the franchise. Get this first.

They changed the experience system, the battles are a lot faster, proper 3D cities, triple battles.

Which will be really cool I guess.

You'd be like tearing the opponent limb from limb and then suddenly you make a rainbow from a move combo.
How serene.

I'm kind of now wishing they'd move on with the graphics. I want a colliseum-esque game, the kind of graphics they had in the N64 games and the GC games. I mean, Kingdom Hearts did it in their DS game... I don't know, maybe I'm complaining too much :P

I decided to just pre-order Black when I went into Gamestop for my Celebi :3 I hope it comes with stuff like the HGSS games did when you pre-ordered them *stares admiringly at Lugia figurine*
The move combo thing sounds interesting.

Suicune

They've already moved on with the graphics as much as they needed to by now.
A Colosseum-esque game is rumored to be in development for Wii though.

You meet a professor and he gives you a starter and you have to beat a team and collect pokemon and at the end you get the chance to catch a legendery. :o
