Pokémon Black Version 2/White Version 2 |OT| Zero Shades of Grey

FWIW, re: Dream Radar. i think it's 6 normal Pokemon, but you can have as many of the special legendaries as you want without having to transfer. not 100% on that, though.
 
Ike, honest question: Is it as fun to have a team completely pre-planned and right from the start?

In the past I've traded maybe one or two Pokemon at the beginning of the game, but I've never had a whole team. I feel like part of the fun is going with the flow and making some unexpected decisions.

Normally I'd say no, it isn't as much fun. But this one time it has been nice playing the game differently.

I still prefer the method of using what I find as I go, but since this isn't a new gen game and it's all Pokémon I've used before anyway, I decided to build a team based around people I talk to in the community thread.
 
Using the dream world keeps changing up who's in/out of my party. I found an Aron and a Druddigon there, and I can't resist not using them.

So I could get my level 70 dragonite in there right away?

Yeah, but he wouldn't obey you until you get the right badge.
 
My team as of reaching Castelia City

I might try to name everything with actual given names that share the first and last letters of the Pokemon's species name.

Of course then evolution may cause problems...
 
How long were you in the Dream Radar before you found him?




Do you mean trading with another system/game? Because I think it's been mentioned that you can trade after the first Gym.

I know I searched like 14 times or something and upgraded my beam abd scope one time before the option popped up. It doesn't cost anything to go catch it.
 
Is there a complete list anywhere of Pokemon available in Dream Radar? Are any exclusive outside of the 3 new legendary forms?
 
people were mentioning how bad Game Freak would do dlc for 3ds versions

Dream Radar is them going around the system to do it already

21 Pokemon for $3 dollars (26 if you have the Gen IV games). Plus, an actual game.
That actually makes sense.
 
I want to breed an egg with squirtle, but my Blastoise and Ditto do not play with each other a lot . So I guess no egg for me :(?
 
Hmm, getting Frustration and Return so soon - I guess GF wanted to cover the friendship bases early, heh.
It's surprisingly small :(

Well, at least there are some good ones. I need to find a Platinum cart to borrow so I can get Giratina...
Well, it's just 3 bucks I guess... it's sort of like buying a better version of Face Raiders or something, with early access to legendaries.
 
What kind of Pokedex do you start with in this game, anyway?

Do you just get the national dex from the beginning, or the same Unova dex from BW, or is it an updated Unova dex that includes all the new wild Pokemon available.

The new pokedex features completly new numbering and contains the 300 pokemon that you can find while playing the main part of the game.

ahh ok, neat!

Just curious, does that include the guys available in Dream Radar, or do they get the ??? treatment a la PDW transfer?

Some of the Dream Radar ones are in the Unova Dex, some aren't. Like Porygon, Togepi, and Ralts. Plus the Gen IV legendaries.
 
Repost:

What happens when you transfer your savegame to B&W2? A comprehensive list somewhere? Something I should be doing in B&W1 before transferring the save?
 
I haven't played one of these since Red. Can someone explain to me in a brief manner how exp works, how it's shared amongst active and inactive and all that?
 
I'm not even a big Pokemon guy... ... ... but dammit, the nostalgia always calls to me! Arg!

me too.

at first it bothered me but now i just pretend both characters are named after a legendary Pokemon trainer from the past.

Thats actually... not far from the truth. As I named my first pokemon trainer in Pokemon red with the same nickname as well :p
