A little word of advice Chew, train En Fuego before the gym

Yeah, I know.

I've played the JP version.

---

I quite like the idea of NDS but having to pay just under $500 for a handheld console and a game, there are other things I'd much rather spend my money on.
Maybe when the DS comes down to about $50 I'll think about it.

Or I'll just get it elsewhere and spend the money on steam games.
(PORTAL TWO cough cough)

I got Pokemon Black and I am not disappointed. Incredible graphics, excellent battle system, and so many new conveniences. Still stuck at the 2nd gym leader...

---

I chose Oshawott for Black. I nicknamed it 'Wat". Not sure what I'm doing yet for White. I'm not training anything found at the beginning of the game because I don't think it's worth it in the long run. Currently at level 17. 1 badge.

Is it just me or has anyone notice that when one of your pokemon is red lining the battle music changes a little and the warning/low health sfx isn't as loud and annoying as it was in the previous installments?

My team right now:

-Galvantula lv: 47
-Gurdurr lv: 48
-Simipour lv: 48
-Serperior lv: 49
-Musharna lv: 50
-Archeops lv : 50

This game is awesome but too hard.
When you defeat the elite four and obtain the national dex, you should have your pokes in level 42-45. Right, as soon you step in the next route after obtaining national dex, a trainer with a precious croakgun at level65(yeah, sixty five). will attack you. XD

The 3D scenes are also awesome. I love this game.

---

I hate how the battle sequences look so pixelated.

---

Same here.

The beginning is a bit slow. Also, I have no idea what's good.

This will be awesome haha.

Picked up Black since all my friends were getting White. Picked Snivy since it didn't look dopey.

---

yeah thats true...at least the plot is more "adult". This time is a serious organization.

PD: Low hp theme and team plasma theme: WIN

---

I'm in complete shock.

TMs are now just as reusable as HMs

Glad to see HM Dive has returned.

Just defeated my first Gym Leader

Just got past the 3rd gym. I haven't had many time to play, but I'm enjoying the game so far.

I'm glad that it's more story driven

---

I could be there right about now, but still focus on getting Emerald complete so they can be migrated. Speaking of migration it sucks that once a pokemon is transferred into B&W it can never go back to D/P/P or HG/SS and this game is not compatible with the pokewalker.

I managed to just beat the elite 4 for the first time. I enjoy that they cut out some of the BS in this game. For instance, I hated the photographer in HG/SS and the phone calls you'd get in D/P from trainers. I also like that you don't need to have multiple HM slaves to just get through areas.

---

I was doing great and had even higher level then the 8th gym leader's Pokemon when I got to him. I get to the Elite 4 and I GET MY ASS KICKED. Hell All of mine are at Lv 47 now and I still get murdered.

---

I don't think I'm getting the English game, I've completed the game in Japanese already.

Also, lol, I managed to make my way through Elite 4 just with my Daikenki (Samurott) and Reshiram. IIRC Reshiram was 48-50 (I forgot) and Daikenki was Lv 69 when I got to the E4, and he was Lv 73 by the end of the game.
