version the second whites
i've always played black 2 so seeing the basic UI changes between versions will be interesting
for example: this opening cutscene.
nah, that sounds fucking gay
>>57919541>4 posts in>already breaking rule 5MOOOOOOOOOOOOODSSSSSSSSSSSSS
>>57919541anon... you MUST catch 'em all...
best starting town in the entire series, if you ask me. definitely the best music.
look at this sick model bro
alright, what do i name the pig
>>57919579what if it's a dude
>>57919590we all know anyone picking tepig is gay by default anyways
I have not seen whatever this is referencing
I like that gen 5 gives all three starters defense-lowering moves instead of growl, which only makes the first battle take longer
damn, you trained that oshawott from birth and it still sucks ass
every game they put the running shoes earlier and earlier. i bet you, in gen 6 they'll ditch the shoes altogether and let you run from the start. that will be the day pokemon dies.
>>57919639it's a male pig from "ranma 1/2"
I wanna try and complete the Habitat List this playthrough
a grass type! this will help me against my rival
this isn't a permanent team member so i get to name it
any of you seen murder drones? it's a good show.
REMATCH TIME
his portrait looks weird
didn't even need to use my starter
this stupid piece of shit just ate all of my remaining pokeballs
if huge power azumarill hadn't been my MVP in multiple Black 2 playthrough's i'd be cursing its name right now
i should probably progress the story instead of doing this
they got terrorists at floccesy ranch
they just left me in the woods
>>57919763>dissing stoutlandkys
hm...i wonder what this could mean...
this girl's got good taste in monkes
>>57919790Chuuni pose that japs love for some reason
how many times are you gonna interrupt me? how'd you even get up there so fast? you were in your house across town five seconds ago!
time to get my ass kicked
gotta love the gen 5 gym leader theme. i prefer the version from BW, but they both good.
okay nevermind, that was a fucking joke
say goodbye to this nice gradient on the bottom screen
remember wild double battles? good times.
doing good so far.
calling it here for the day. tomorrow we do virbank city, fight roxie, and maybe make some movies.
>>57920247who the fuck is connor
>>57920290Donโt mind him
>>57920751who the fuck are you
>>57920751>no periodone job
>>57920290lurk more
>>57920023he can smell children from miles away
>>57920825your clothes
give them to me
>>57920181have you ever used dunsparce in a playthrough? it's super fun to use and i'd recommend putting it on your team if you haven't before, it gets a fantastic movepool that can carry it through the game even in spite of its average stats
Don't forget the silk scarf
>>57921938i've used one before and carried it for quite a while, but it falls off too much for me to take it to the end of the game. maybe if i was using it in a johto game, where the general power level is lower, it would be more appealing as a permanent team member.
realized I never showed the summary for this pig. here you go.
this isn't even the most D's Roxie has had in her mouth at once
you're a little young for her, methinks
maybe it's just me but virbank city still feels like i'm in the super-early game. i think it's because route 20 is so short, there's about 30 feet between the guy with the riolu and the gate.
it's like if you're on a long road trip, and you drive for 20 minutes to get out of your hometown, but then you stop at a gas station. the trip hasn't really started yet. i think an adventure starts when you get far enough from your home that there's no reason that would make turn back. and in BW2, that's not until you take the boat to castelia.
>>57922631i've already run out of things to do that aren't going to the gym.
no he ain't
you think i'm giving up pickup? get real
i've been playing this game for over a decade and i still don't know how assurance works
props to her for actually having a koffing. gotta commit to the bit.
we're not messing around here
one hit, straight to the mat, that's pig power!
this is a nice looking badge
roxie's sprite makes her look like she's wearing a striped onesie
ah, pokestar studios. the greatest pleb filter in all of pokemon.
this is a good crowd by 2025 standards
I'm ready to take the snowdog challenge
not a lot of people know this but you don't have to see the movie you've made. you can leave after filming. you only need to see it if you want to unlock the other scripts.
this is still more people than when i went to see Fury of the Gods
I'm going to do the Pokestar movies on my own time, since they don't give me a whole lot to comment on. but I do want to get the strange ending effect on one of my later team members.
I could've sworn they were team aqua
going back to the point I made earlier, we have two badges already and this is the first time we're actually battling a member of team plasma.
BW2 are rather lopsided games.
what an odd thing to point out
going back to BW and not having the bike for castelia is painful
we switched to pokemon battles because they're less destructive
hey so remember how you just fought team plasma ten minutes ago?
you wanna do it again?
so are you gonna help us or
don't you think it's a little early for this
i will give the game credit, it does do a solid job at hiding this guy's identity
being here in the summer means i'm going to have to wait to get leftovers, which blows. but it's not like i have anything that can use them right now.
speaking of having things, i'm going to be catching a petilil to serve as my second team member. you may suggest names now.
>>57922914Does it really need surf? I remember thinking leftovers was shockingly early when I played (in spring I think) it but maybe I was used to it being full postgame.
>>57922920okie dokie mother fokie
>>57923011i can go check
>>57922903Getting strength when you already got an infinite return tm after the first gym kinda sucks. Strength used to be one of the HMs like surf or fly that you could use on a non-mule as their fourth best skill without it being completely dead.
>>57923011yeah, see? blocked off. so close, and yet so far.
>>57923102I'm pretty sure there's another way around because I'm sure I got to that doctor heath and it's next to him
wait, scratch that. you CAN get it.
this room has always befuddled me
I think I'm gonna call it here. between relic passage and castelia garden, I've got a lot of pokemon to catch before I do Burgh.
>>57923166I always get an eevee and then never evolve it in every game but I think I actually made an umbreon with the one you get in castelia
