Well, they'recoming out tomorrow, so I think we'll get some news pretty soon :3

[~British Soul~]

technically it's the 23rd in Japan so the games are out

i agree with Yin with the stupid amount of Legendaries in the game, the Regi trio, the Lake trio, the musketeer trio, etc.

Of course...my bad
And speaking of that, someone's already started uploading a walkthrough.

it's easy to forget what timezone Japan is in when people are waiting for stuff to come out there
as for the walkthroughs, i've been watching Gian's BW2 live stream

As of now, I'm at Homika's (or Roxie's) gym, with my team consisting of:
Riolu Lv.17
Growlithe Lv.17
Dewott Lv.19

...apparently you can get more than 1 Master Ball in this game, Juniper gives you one in Mistralton and...

spoilers

Achroma will give you another after beating his team consisting of:
Magneton, Wash Rotom, Metagross, Beheeyem, Magnezone Level 72 and Klinklang Level 74

oh and that Level 35 Volcarona is wild and is found in the Relic Caste, and on Thursdays on Route 4, you can capture an underlevelled Mandibuzz (Level 25) with its hidden ability

EDIT:

I'm happy because I can encounter Zubats again. Hope they have Magikarps.

You get sold 1 for 500 Pokedollars

also, you can get 2 guaranteed shinies in this game

Shinies

Gible (from defeating Banijrou in Black City/White Forest's main attraction)
Haxorus (in Nature Sanctuary after seeing all pokemon in the Unova dex)

[DARKPLANT RISING]

Some people claim there's a Hydreigon with Quiver Dance.

I hope it's fake, and it probably is anyways.

Seeing as it now gets Roost from the new tutor... f*** I hope that's not true.


So far just got the 4th badge, some of it's pretty tedious seeing as it's all in Jap and I wish I knew the story, but it's pokemon so it's self-explanatory enough. This definitely lives up to the bar BW set so far, actually with the new gym designs I'd say it toppled it quite well. I'm liking my team of Leavanny, Braviary and Dewott so far but my god Elesa was a b****.

[Zextra]

I'm surprised I'm not underleveled for where I am - it's definitely harder to keep up here than in BW... I just got to Opelucid City for my 7th badge, and my team so far is: Sigilyph Lv.46, Zoroark Lv.46, Fraxure Lv.46, Arcanine Lv.48, Lucario Lv.48, Samurott Lv.50

It's like Emerald, the difficulty curve is actually noticeable but still not insane. It's a kid's game after all, and even though they're trying to market to an older audience their main audience is still gonna be the little whippersnappers.

Nice to feel at least remotely challenged by a pokemon game though, especially with my type choices (I swear if I see another Magneton I'm gonna punch someone).

[Flame Dragon]

Yea, I'm very happy with the new tutors. Going to need to look later at what crazy things some pokemon can now do.

[Shradow]

I love the OST. All the remixes are awesome.

The title music is definitely my favorite.

[>PrinceNiro<]

Urgh, still waiting for the release here...

[Zextra]

Iris' theme is actually pretty catchy, despite it being rather silly-sounding. But the battle was pretty easy for me (though giving her Haxorus a Focus Sash was a dick move on her part...) - grinding in Victory Road really helped. I finished the battle with Sigilyph and Zoroark at Lv.59, Arcanine, Haxorus, and Lucario at Lv.61, and Samurott at Lv.64

I'm going to work on post-game stuff, then start on White 2 when I get back home this Sunday.

[This Account is Unplayable]

I found Iris pretty easy even with all my stuff around the same level as hers tbh. Finished with level 57 Braviary and Metagross, level 58 Leavanny and Absol and level 59 Weavile and Samurott.

Admittedly, Weavile having Ice Shard is probably what let me beat that Haxorus when it used DD, since apparently Samurott can't even trigger a Sash with Ice Beam so it can't follow up with Aqua Jet.

US Release date: October 7th
EU Release date: October 12th

PokeWood -> PokeStar Studio
Shizui -> Marlon

EDIT: Achroma -> Corless
...and your rival's name remains the same: Hugh

[Yin]

Later than I'd hoped, but close enough nearly to be a birthday present to myself sweet.

[Comrade Tentacruel]

MUCH later than I'd hoped, but it gives me time to get it since I want Xenoblade and The Last Story first.

[Yin]

I'll probably pre-order from Amazon (maybe not if the delays caused in their take over of Book Depository are anything to go by)

That made no sense, Emerald was the easiest Pokemon game ever, By the Elite 4 (I didnt overlevel on purpose) I have Pokemon in the Level 80's to 90!
