The Official Pokémon Black & White Discussion Thread

[Akira]

Hmmm.. Pokémon White and Black... I was expected that.

[HokutoNoBen]

Oh gawd, at that list, Mirby.  

[Black Mage J]

Aw hell no.

[VixyNyan]

[Jericho]

Mirby wins this round. I lost it at TeQuan.

[Acid]

I will get neither.



Or both.

[Mirby]

hehe Acid...

[Rad Lionheart]

He has no strong feelings about this whatsoever.

[HokutoNoBen]

Mirby wins this round. I lost it at TeQuan.

Shaniqua alone was enough. 

Any way, it seems tomorrow's Pokemon Sunday probably won't tell us too much. Reportedly, we're REALLY not going to get much of anything substantial until the 15th.

[Flame]

Actually, Remembering Battle network 3...

theyl just change the Black. >3>
To some other dark color. like- Navy.

[Mirby]

POKEMON LIGHT! POKEMON SHADOW! POKEMON GRAY!

[Harruhy]

Wait, what? Jamal isn't on the list for Pokémon Black?

Also, there should be only one beginner in each game.
Black will have Jynx.
White will maybe have Mr. Mime.

[Rad Lionheart]

I haven't got a response to that...

[Harruhy]

No response is better than a bad response.

You just made me lol

No, Blues. THE TIME HAS COME! "One drop" principle states that the choice is CLEAR for you, my brutha!

Any way, interesting that they went straight monochrome this time. I wonder if that was for an actual reason, and not just cuz they didn't have any better picks for colors/basic elements. Could this going back to such basic colors mean some thing more...?

For example, one thing I've always thought was interesting was how there's been a thing of how the games told snippets of what the world was like back in the olden days of man and mon. In HG/SS, they even went forth to tell you that Apricots used to be the way they got [parasitic bomb] done when they wanted to catch some Mons. So, I'm wondering...maybe instead of just going to a new region, this time, maybe they could throw us for a loop and into the context of an older era, itself. One where we have to use the Apricots, and get access to a slew of Pokemon that would otherwise be possibly extinct in the "modern" era. 

If nothing else, it could be an opportunity for a nice change, storyline and aesthetic-wise, even as a number of things still remain the same. (Re: instead of "gyms", it could be "dojos" dedicated to a certain type of Pokemon instead. )

Not to mention Celebi being at least ONE Pokemon that can time travel would always leave the opportunity for these types of shenanigans to take place in the first place...

Story?  LoL, I just wanna be the best like no one ever was!

[Mirby]

YOU ALREADY ARE!

[Gotham Ranger]

Story?  LoL, I just wanna be the best like no one ever was!

To catch them is my real test..

[Archer]

TO TRAIN THEM IS MY CAUSE!

[Mirby]

and to destroy the joke is my accidental job, I guess... damn.

[Gotham Ranger]

TO TRAIN THEM IS MY CAUSE!

I will travel across the land!

[Protoman Blues]

Searching far and wide?

[Harruhy]

Each Pokémon to understand,

[Gotham Ranger]

The power that's insiiiide!

[Archer]

Pokemon!
It's you and me.
