  • Registered Users Posts: 4,493 ✭✭✭TheChrisD


    Holy ****, they localised it.



    Shame they didn't use the same VAs as the anime.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,354 ✭✭✭Urizen


    Gods damn, I wish that was the anime...

    I can confirm that the game is damn awesome with some
    Visually stunning cutscenes. Finished the main story a few weeks ago and can't wait for the English release.

    I'm amazed that you guys aren't fluent in Japanese by now :P

    If staring at things you don't understand for extended periods of time made you an expert, I'd understand women by now. But that's not how it works. You have much to learn, youngling.

    As I'm studying for my last few exams now, I understand you completely. I have forgotten what a microbe even is...

    Can someone give me a breakdown of the game please. Dont need to know the story, but where does this game come in relation to B/W 1. Does it follow on, do you start a new adventure as a newbie to pokemon, what changes in pokemon can we expect if any etc

    It follows on from black and white, 2 years after.
    Yes you do start as a pokemon newbie.
    In the original black/white, you only had access to the new unova pokemon until you'd completed the main quest, in this one, you've access to old pokemon from the word go. Some cool pokemon available pretty early too.

    GUISE IT'S TOMORROW.

    AM SO EXCITE. AM AM.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,721 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    HAVE PREBOOKED, CAN'T WAIT!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    Might see what I can trade in to pick it up tomorrow. But given it's friday, I'll have to play it drunk. Not sure how good an idea that is...

    So, is everyone going Black or White?
    I know they say that once you go black you never go back, but they also say white is right... I'm so conflicted.

    Also, can we start a discussion about which of the 3 starters is the best, 'cause I'm too lazy to look up what the starters are in 2. Hopefully not the same 3 as the original B/W?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,721 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    I'm going White this time, I got Black last time.
    The starters are the same, which is a bit of a pity. Loads of in game differences though.

    Happy Pokemon Black 2 and Pokemon White 2 day everyone!

    Has anyone caught that terrible bug that's been going around? (aka Genesect on wi-fi)


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,485 ✭✭✭✭Banjo


    Heading to the car in 2 hours.... tick follows tock follows tick follows tock....

    Edit : A bit of creative trading and it's mine... MINE!
    Glad I'm not Nuzlocking, I lost the first battle for the first time in 5 generations and countless run-throughs. I didn't know you *could* lose the first battle! Damned criticals....

    There's a mysterious menu called Unova Link with some interesting looking options that make me wish I read the manual.

    You get to name your rival - hurray! Nunbery and Bohegas ride again...
