Now, are the character designs any good?
This time around, yes (for once).

Solid gameplay or not, the last pokemon game I played (gold/silver) had like 3 good pokemon designs and the rest were inferior to weedle.
Probably won't be too impressed by these. They're barely Pokemon anymore. Of course there's this guy.

Anyways, this is one of the better Pokemon games so far and seems to hold a lot of improvement.

I was going to say something else, but I forgot.

Currently in the city with the 5th gym. Team of lv25s, one lv33 Krokorok, and one lv21 Sigilyph.

Prior to that, I had to fight a tag battle with Cheren against two preschoolers with their high attack Herdiers. I Swaggered them with my Krokorok, but instead of hitting themselves, they took out 3 of Cheren's pokemon with OHKO Take Downs, while my Krokorok didn't get any damage. It was awesome.

Haven't really played a lot, in Chargestone Cave right now. 5 badges, no Pokemon below level 30.

Mouth Hug (Tynamo) lv. 30
Bernkastel (Gothorita) lv. 32
Mokona (Cinccino) lv. 33
Smugleaf (Servine) lv. 34

I also started training Kling, got it to level 30, and gave up. Man, fuck that thing.

Cinccino is so cute, man. Too cute. Its movepool doesn't take advantage of its modest attack stat, but hey, Technician'd Wake-Up Slap.

I restarted because of this :( The bird fossil is fucking awesome. His attack and speed are top-tier, only problem is his ability is meant to hinder them (hp <50% = 1/2 stats)

Also, scrafty is probably my favorite 5th gen pokemon so far. It's ability is sexy for pve sweeps. Also, Scrafty was literally built for pokemon league. I don't want to spoil much but really. If you're having trouble with it (which you shouldn't - its ez) get a scrafty.

I made the same problem, but played on because I didn't care at that time. I just checked up on the stats, and holy wow.


I've already beat the 7th gym though, not sure if I should restart or maybe trade around for it.

My heart is broken D: Now I have to value ID 50505 vs Archeops ;_;
I only hope it is breedable so I can get it off from someone online atleast...

Even if it isn't breedable you can get it via the GTS.
I'm serious, I just breed starters or something and get legendaries in return. Sometimes just random Pokemon I have dupes of get me rare/exclusives.

Ancient pokemon are and have always been breedable. Also I took the turtle because I like its looks more.

(I currently have 4 badges and am battling trainers & stuff in the deep freeze.)

Cleared the main storyline, had to fight Ghetsis twice due to bad team planning.

Can you guys recommend any good place to train a lv 50 Larvesta?

Perhaps I should get rid of my "All Pokemon I have must be the same level" mentality.
Going to the 2nd gym atm.

I heard pirated versions of the game were more challenging

Played Black in September, got bored and quit. But have to say the Pokemon League was pretty nice.

I thought the new experience system was supposed to stop this until I saw my nephew using just his starter as always. >_>

I do have it, but I'm wasn't good at leveling it till it evolves at that time.


I have to now, though, since I'm breeding it.

Pulling off an Issun grammar here

Anyways, you will not regret working on Volcarona.

I beat the elite four, so now I'm catching synchronizers for Zekrom. Is he Jolly or Adamant? What's a good one-under poke for Speed/HP?

...well, after defeating the Elite Four/Champion twice, now I have the official confirm.

This 5th generation will easily be recorded as the BIG march of the BIG snails.
Who finds a fast psychic (or ghost, or also fighting) pokémon will instantly win a million dollar, guaranteed. (legendaries/promotionals apart)

Not everything needs to be fast. jesus. We had enough fast Pokemon introduced during the last generation, it's about time we had some slower, bulkier stuff come in. Then again, I prefer to partake in battles that last more than 6-10 turns, when it comes to competitive play.

Also, Mienshao is pretty fast for a fighting type.

Okay, this is a general pokemon question, but what exactly happens to ditto's catch rate when transformed?


I have absolutely no problem when it changes to my Gallade, a single Ultra Ball when I false swipe it to 1 hp always catches it.
It accidentally changed to my Volcarona once, and I couldn't catch it.
With this logic, a weak pokemon should make it easier, no?

A Ditto changed into a lv4 Lillipup and managed to break 3 Ultra Balls with 1 hp before I gave up. What gives?

...this is shit impossible seeing as how the Ditto probably has a higher max HP... higher max HP = larger chances according to the current catch formula.

A Lillipup's catch rate is 255, so I don't understand how the hell you didn't catch it...

Well from Gen I to IV, a Ditto's Catch Rate changes to whatever it transforms to. I don't know if something happened in Gen V.

SPOILER
"Oh no, the Pokemon broke free!" means no shakes. At all.
1. The Lillipup is Lv15 because the previous Lillipup-Ditto struggled to death, giving him exp.
2. Yes my Gallade is called Youki


EDIT: Now I can't catch Gallade-Dittos when I want evidence. I swear to god I was catching them left right and center with one ball just now.

Try to use dusk balls, more catch rate.

I've probably caught 10 Adamant and 10 Brave Volcaronas. Best one so far was Bold. ;_;

I'm not going to waste them on dittos if I can use Ultra balls. :/
Caught 4 dittos, none of them Adamant or Modest. Oh well.


EDIT: Opelucid City has different music and style for Black and White. Woha, didn't know that.

EDIT 2: Read this quote somewhere:
"POKEMON MYSTERY DUNGEON IS AN ALTERNATE REALITY WHERE N SUCCEEDS"

...oddly enough I read that somewhere too, I just don't remember where...

EDIT: N's plan even extends into the real world

That's Nintendo's ad campaign for Pokemon B/W in Europe. And they would have a field day with it, pasting the ads on stores, billboards, flags, even elevators.....but then the tsunami struck. As a result of the two gigantic events clashing, you get things like this:

omg those ads are so awesome. I wish we had them in Canada.

Not the Japanese tsunami part, mind you.


I beat the E4 once and for some reason I don't feel the motivation of grinding to beat them again. I will eventually, just not immediately.
