CorgiShinobi Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Oh shi-, TM's don't expire?! Dang it, I don't know still... To Pokemon, or not to Pokemon, that is the conundrum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excel_excel Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 YOU PEOPLE NEED TO CATCH UP ALREADY HEADING TO FACE 3 BUTLER GYM LEADERS GROUP. FUCK BRO YOU BEEN TRAINING HARD! Downloaded it for R4 last night, its absolutly fantastic. The constant animated Pokemon really breathe life into the battles and give them character. Theres no chaf in the game, about within the first 10 minutes you have your starting Pokemon, you've had 2 battles, you've got your Pokedex and Pokeballs. Its just great so far. Its all so much more faster and quicker, without the underlying core being made less complex. Theres some real gems of Pokemon design in there, and the story is taking a very interesting slant. Went to buy it in Gamestop today!....€45? JESUS CHRIST. TO HMV!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

excel_excel Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 HMV had it for €35 with a bitching free Pokemon Black/White case. Just bought it Can't wait gonna be playing all night!! Also the music rocks. The little visual touches really add to the world, like the blowing leaves and the bat pokemon flying over the screen when you first exit your house. These are easily the best in the series since Gold & Silver. I'M CALLING IT. NOW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

「Advent Chaos」 Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Poop, everyone's gotten a head start. Not to be a whiny bitch here, but knowing everyone already had strong pokemon and legendaries turned me off from playing pokemon. I bought Platinum on release day and only played it for a week. Gave it to a pretty friend and eventually found a new copy (on school grounds!) Another friend had given me Pokemon Ruby, I felt nostalgic and decided to finish ruby. BAM! I'm back on the pokemon train, bring it on! I will at least TRY to put up a good fight. *explodes* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Hah. I'm not exactly playing pokémon competitively. Still, and I say this with sympathy towards you buyers, the pirates win again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Turns out I may have trouble playing this online with you fine folks because I forgot the DS doesn't support modern password security for WLAN and thus can't connect to my bloody router.

excel_excel Posted March 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Think my Router has the same issue Johnny. That's why I headed down to the pub where they have free wifi that works with my DS Loving Black anyway. This is great stuff. I'm desperately trying to not look up Pokemon stats and to raise any I like in ignorance but its haaaarrddd!! I'm only raising two mainly, Lv.14 Snivy and Lv.13 Purrloin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 The only thing I've been looking up is where I can catch certain pokémons, and how the evolutions look. Would be a pain to start focusing on some pokémons that I then hate the later versions of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 The issue isn't the router. The issue is the DS. I do believe it was something they fixed with the DSi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingGerbil Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 excel_excel, I don't know if it's possible, but can yuo add a poll into the first post to see which version people have bought. Also, playing pokemon in the pub - does that raise any eyebrows? You're braver than me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoStarr Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Got Black yesterday. Loving it so far. On my way to badge #2 right now. PROTIP: This motherfucker learns psybeam at lvl 11 and then just one shots the fuck out of everything for the next few hours. Isn't it cute though?

Johnny Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 In-game it looks like a flowery flying pink brain. And psybeam? Fuck psybeam. It's the only pokémon I've found that can put stuff to sleep this early, making it deadly even against psychic-immune opponents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I just went to the entrance of the pub and quickly connected my DS and downloaded the mystery gift, didn't actually go into the pub fully! 2 sundays ago, I got out of work, still wearing a formal suit, went down to gamestop to get Celebi. I go inside looking like a BAMF and out of my pocket I take out Pink Nintendo DS lite. Eyebrows were raised and "lolwuts" were said, but you know what the best part is? I got my Celebi and looked freaking cool while doing it. I should have worn glasses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOVE IT. There is some weird ass dialogue though....little preschooler running around a room. Rrrraaaaar! I'll run! You gonna chase me? You run! Am I gonna chase you!
