This is a little irrelevant to Black and White specifically, but it's more of a general Pokemon thing. What's everyone's favorite pokemon (based entirely cosmetically, coolness, and stuff. Not actual usefulness or power (though. I guess, play style could be a factor)):
For me, it's gotta be Dewgong.
I don't know why, but Ice is cool, and Water is cool. Bulky guys are fun, and he's so adowable :3

my fav pokemon is pikachu.

anyways i lost my DS so i had to resort to playing white on CPU. at second gym i think. my favorite part of all pokemon games is when i get to the point of where i can catch every pokemon and make my dream team.

you can get a gastly in white forest, but you have to do some co-op things in black city.


I always really liked Houndoom, Grumpig and Sandslash.

Grumpig is a decent UU special sponge, and Sandslash is the poor-man's Excadrill.

Wow are there a lot of dumb trade offers on the GTS.

All I see are things like: LEVEL 1 STARTER FOR LEVEL 9 OR UNDER ZEKROM/RESHIRAM

Seriously?

Groudon by far.

Too bad Kyurem is just a subpar Palkia It's the first master of a mascot trio that sucks so much. I'm quite pissed about that, it has great movepool but crappy stat distribution.


Kyurem has great stats. Excellent offensive stats, good defenses and acceptable if not a little underwhelming speed. He'd be just a step below Rayquaza (one of the top ubers) based on just that. He has two major problems that completely cripple him though.

1 is being Ice type which is easily the worst typing in the game overall. Too many defensive weaknesses to list. The only upside is a boosted Ice beam, which is great even if it's utility is somewhat overlapping with his other type dragon.
Being weak to rock, fighting and steel is absolutely crippling. The only other ice pokemon that are even useable in standard battling are Cloyster, Weavile and Mamoswine.

2 his movepool is limited to dragon claw/outrage, stone edge, dragon pulse/meteor, ice beam, focus blast and hidden power. Which basically means that despite having 130 attack he's not viable as a physical or mixed user, and his special movepool is too limited, when you have to rely on focus blast or hidden power to not be completely walled by every steel types you're gonna have big problems, also no good setup or priority moves of any kind.

In the end, he's not even as good as garchomp/salamence/dragonite/hydreigon, despite having much higher stats overall, if he were a bit more specialized or had a much stronger movepool he'd be a weak uber for sure. Also his ability is only good for defensive pokemon, since he's anything but that he might as well not have it.

I caught Kyurem on the 3rd ultra ball with no status effects. Was kinda gay considering I had a defensive item, used X-def, etc on Zekrom preparing to toss like 40 balls out before I caught him. Actually caught him up the turn after using an x-def.

I went in there with like 90 ultra balls and 80 hyper potions expecting a long, arduous process because one of the other guys took like 35 min to catch (one of the other 3 legendary pokemon).

Yeah?

I don't worry about stats too much, I usually just use pokemon based on their overall badassery and since I only play the single player pretty much anything works Well.... I'm having a hard time forcing myself to use the 2 legendary that look the same. Zekrom has really come into his usefullness at lvl 70+

Clefable. It kicked ass even in generation 1, and later on it only got better. Magic guard encore wall Clefable, belly drum meteor mash Clefable, life orb double-edge Clefable... it wasn't strong but there's no one more fun to use.

Too hard to choose just one edit - I would go with Espeon though

1st gen - Jolteon/Kabutops
2nd gen - Espeon
3rd gen - Flygon
4th gen - N/A
5th gen - Mienshao

My original favorite was Dragonite (Love my Dragons <3) But it's slowly being replaced by Hydreigon. That thing is so badass and so strong. Pseudo-Legendaries ftw.

As far as each Gen goes?

1 - Dragonite
2 - Tyranitar/Kingdra
3 - Gardevoir
4 - Garchomp
5 - Hydreigon

was always a fan of tyranitar, but I think the ground pokemon in b/w (excadrill, krookodile, landorus etc) are pretty awesome too!

i guess I'll be making a sandstorm team once i get past elite 4

k, i almost clear pokemon White on my original R4...

+ Show Spoiler +
The girl at the sea city is a FREAKING BEAST, most of my guys are at 5x, 1 at 65 and all of her are 75 with a tanker and 3 legendary/"sudo legendary".... used up all the max rive and still only pass at most 3 of her pokemon. Lucario could use DRAGON move? WHUUTTT?

Solution: go catch Kyurem since he is level 75, do a speedrun to raise everything ABOVE 75 and comeback and fight her x<... anoyinggggg


Also: WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT:

i mean this one is awesome, unlike that

=> ima enjoy this song for quite sometime xD



Overall Ima rate this game 4.5/5 compare to all other pokemon games since the gameboy advance age.

Pros:
+ Great graphic with 3D system almost fully implemented.
+ Suprisingly good musics. Like REALLY GOOD!
+ Most of the "extra" events are accessible via wireless system, trading and multi-players experience are much easier to access.
+ Fully access to the Moves system (and they dont run out once u used them) as well as a HUGE list of items that are obtainable. This could help a lot for the competitive scene in the future.
+ New Battle Systems: team comes into play even though you have to learn mostly through multi-players.
+ Season and day/night system: help a lots in Evolution, a whole bunch of pokemon are now easier to access. Also provide some "alternative forms" for some special pokemons.

Cons:
+ The most disappointing factor i found is that most of the generation V seems to be just a replacements for Gen I and II with different images and passive.
+ Once you pass the deadline for an online event, there almost no replacement.
+ No access to different area, so far there is no information on how to leave Unova.
+ No gamble system (slots, cards, etc...) aka Game Corner.
+ No new HM, Dive is almost unused and should not be an HM. (this is huge, the game is so boring missing an HM)
Im daed. Follow me @TL_NB

Yeah Cynthia is an animal. Just like she was in DPPt. I think she also appeared in HG/SS as a "Final Boss" sort of character just like in B/W. I'm still having trouble beating her. That damn Garchomp..
