Is there anything similar to the Marking App in D/P/Pt in Black and White for catching Thundurus or any other roaming pokemon? Or am I stuck running back and forth between routes?
 
Is it true that Black and White don't have the level 100 auto-level feature during Wi-Fi battles that the 4th generation games had? Are any kind of auto-level features available during battles (auto-level to level 100 or to level 50) in either Wi-Fi battles or local wireless battles?
Yes, it's true. However, on wi-fi battles rules instead of unrestricted rules if you select "flat rules" the level will be set up to 50, unless their level is lower than that. If that's the case the poke will retain it's lower level.
 
Should SD Weavile carry Ice Shard or Ice Punch? Also, should I give up Low Kick for a better trait in Wicked Thief?
Ice Shard should be used over Ice Punch just so you don't get as easily revenged. As for Low Kick, you really need it to have any chance at ll of beating Tyranitar

Ice Shard over Ice Punch boils down to whether you want to hit the Scarfed Dragons or if you want the power to punch through stuff like Hippowdon. Personally, I'd opt for Ice Punch, since faster scarfed Pokemon can be played around fairly easily.

I'd not get rid of Low Kick. The ability to OHKO a Heatran is pretty big, IMO.

I think that both of Weavile's abilities suck for him, basically. Wicked Thief is situational and Pressure is useless on such a frail Pokemon. So I'd rather just go with the one with the better movepool.
 
Ferrothorn is also hit by Low Kick, which is a big deal.

And yeah, Pickpocket is a pretty useless ability as it requires Weavile to use either a consumable item (I guess Lum Berry could work), or none at all. Not worth losing Low Kick over.
 
Noob question I know, but why is there Team Preview on Pokemon Online now? It pretty much ruins many Pokemon (eg. Zoroark) and makes lead sets pointless. Is it always going to be present?
 
Gamefreak decided to be an asshole and made it such that you have your teams revealed at the start of every wi-fi match, and PO decided to follow the game mechanics as closely as possible so thats the reason there's team preview on PO. Unless someone finds a way to legitimately disable it(or if it just magically disappears in the third game) its going to be there.
 
In anyone's Gamestop/EB Games/etc doing a midnight launch for B&W? Mine's just opening at 9 AM instead of the usual 11... and is there any news of getting free stuff if you've reserved a copy, like a poster?

According to this...

More ironic than perhaps intended, like Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee in the first generation they wish they could have a move swap. Throh would make a fantastic user of Counter, whereas Sturdy would allow Sawk to almost always get in an Overhead Throw and continue its offensive pressure. Alas as they do not share a wonderkin, so they are stuck with neither egg moves nor luck.

If I remember correctly, Throh is Nageki(big fat red dude), Sawk is Dageki(lean mean blue dude). Sawk doesn't get Overhead Throw, that's Throh. >_>

Did something get pwnt here?
