Pokemon Black and White (SPECULATIONS ALLOWED HERE)

[Sprocket]

Umm, so if you quit playing when Crystal was released, and started back up when HGSS was released... how do you know what DPP was like?

After playing through HGSS, I bought Pearl and Platinum.

The Black City would be a ghetto full of poor blacks. There would be a lot of crime. The White Forest is a rural area full of what would be called rednecks. I get this idea because of the names.

....I hope your not serious dude.

 

[breh]

Hey has anybody compared Munna's HP in the new video to previous videos? If it's the same, it's safe to assume that it's got a 31 IV; If not then we have a nice range

147 in the new vid... can't find the old one though

Bumping this... can anybody find its HP that was previously shown?

Anyway that first lunchbox is cool; Pokabu looks especially menacing

Oh and that Black City is a ghetto and white forest is a forest of rednecks is hilarious; almost sig worthy if not for my current signature

I am not serious. It does sound a bit coincidential.
Thanks Breludicolo. It was my idea.

 

[AuntAcid]

Coincidental that you thought of it and you're a racist?

 

[manav95]

Stop overreacting. Besides, Troll Freak is Japanese. There's no way they would intentionally use the classic white vs. black struggle for rights.

Em, kinda racist, and not the best of ideas. But still, I guess it´s [kinda] good of a guess, but I don't like it

GS, while my favorite, did a horrible job of incorporating the new Pokemon. Half of the gyms didn't have ANY Gen II mons, a pretty big handful of new Pokemon weren't even available in Johto (Murkrow, Houndour, Slugma) and another handful were so rare you might not even know they existed if they missed a certin trainerr (Marill 1% at Mt Mortar, Yanma 1% Route 35, Dunsparce, Qwilfish, Snubbull).

Actually, in terms of Gen 2 Pokemon owned by Gym Leaders:
Whitney - Miltank
Jasmine - Steelix
Pryce - Piloswine
Claire - Kingdra

That's exactly what I said. Half of them didn't have any Gen II Pokemon.

And I could actually see Black City being full of shady, dangerous-looking people, and White Forest being full of loudmouth opinionated folks. Not having to do with their race. . . but kind of stereotypical city mouse/country mouse.

You know, I somewhat pity you. Just by the name of a color of an area, you start going off on a tangent claiming one would be a ghetto and the other would be filled with redneck farmers.

You must be joking.

 

[manav95]

Finally no more freaking Zubat. That thing needs to stop appearing.

Same thing I'm thinking, you just can't base things off of how they sound, especially negative and racist speculations

 

[manav95]

Yes I'm joking. Oh and Koromori looks better than that ugly Zubat. Its more creative and has eyes.

 

[Unknown Tsutaja]

You're joking.. and you have it as your signature?
And yes, it is, but I don't like the heart as a nose, lol

 

[Chateau]

I liked Kormori until I saw it's sprite. It makes it look retarded, in the handicapped sense of the word.

 

[manav95]

Breludicolo said it was funny and of its potential as a sig.

 

[rainbows]

hey guess what, people commonly put jokes in their signature. kind of a surprising thing, i know

also shikijika or whatever it's called owns. please not be shit! also the caterpillar is so cute, please evolve into an awesome maskbug thing

 

[Unknown Tsutaja]

Breludicolo said it was funny and of its potential as a sig.

It doesn't mean everyone likes the idea, and knowing GF, they wouldn't make something like that considering the amount of children that play the game. @ Chateau- Same thing happened with me :/

 

[manav95]

Anyway why are serebii people considered noobs. And also where do you think
Isshu is.

 

[R_N]

I liked Kormori until I saw it's sprite. It makes it look retarded, in the handicapped sense of the word.

I imagine that's the entire point.

 

[manav95]

Well at least we get to see a fresh face this time around.

 

[Unknown Tsutaja]

I imagine that's the entire point.

...At least it won't be as annoying as Zubat.. I hope

 

[AuntAcid]

I'm excited for the all new regional dex. I want the CoroCoro leak already, I'm dying in anticipation. And I wanted that fake scan with the Chimecho evo to be real so bad!

Yeah, not to mention that even the plot segments were focused on Gen I Pokemon, such as the Slowpoke Well and the Lake of Rage being full of Magikarp/Gyarados. Seriously, it felt like Gamefreak completed most of the plot details and put together the Gym rosters before most of the new Pokemon were invented. I wouldn't doubt it to be honest...

Their decision to leave out even Pikachu from the regional dex is a pretty bold move.

I kinda see this as a it of a marketing move. "Hey kids, test out these new awesome Pokemon! What? Want to use your old ones? No problem! All you need is a copy of DPPHGSS and a second Nintendo DS/Lite/i/XL/3DS!" Granted, this is coming out at the end of it's life cycle so pretty much everyone getting Gen 5 has these.

Judging from sales in Japan, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if people had at least two DSes just from upgrading.
And then of course other family members.
