Re: So, whos picking up Pokemon Black/White?

hacking is cool when you're twelve

judging from your hostility toward yoshi and your response, my thesis is accurate.

Depending how you look at it, hacking can be game breaking yes, or it can make it into something fresh and exciting depending on the hack. I really don't care when it comes to Pokemon if someone has other means of training or obtaining them. As long as they aren't making unbeatable max stat teams, then who cares. What the person does in game is their business. Maybe some people want to just have their Pokemon auto made just for wifi battles instead of going on and on for countless hours just to get undesired results. Anyway, as long as it stays out of the competitive part of the online game, there's nothing wrong in my eyes with what he does with his game.

I don't hack just cause it almost feels like a waste of getting the game. I also feel the accomplishment when you catch a difficult pokemon or level one up to 100. Like when it took me 3 hours to catch a Feebas in pearl, I could have traded for one but wanted to get one for myself. As for Black/White, I have friends getting both so i'll probably just play theirs at some point.

I bought Black first day it came out, and I've beaten the 7th gym leader. My team is Samurott, Conkledurr, Simisear, Krookodile, Zebstrika, and Stoutland.

hop on my nuts if you want but the only real hack i used when i played through black was a hack that sped up my game, sorta like holding the spacebar on emulators
i mean of course if you count the fact that my game said its winter out right now but i changed it to spring is a hack then by all means im terrible

Pokedex at 292 in 28:20, and I'm taking my time. Right now I think I'll go after the Legendaries. Caught Kyurem way too easily for a catch rate of 3.


Side discussion - who else gives amazing nicknames to their pokemon?

Here are some of my favorites (the gender symbols ARE correct):

Zekrom: Fuzzlekin
Woobat ♀: Snugsie
Tympole ♀: Dayquan
Munna ♀: CLOOOOGOR
Petilil ♀: The Jah
Blitzle ♂: Trixie
Deerling ♀: Qonzaya
Throh ♂: Samantha
Pidove ♂: Taudove
Litwick ♀: Flitwick
Klink: Klisha
Stunfisk ♂: The Blob
Palpitoad ♂: Julie
Foongus ♂: Pungus (I'd gotten kind of tired of all the puns Nintendo insisted upon by this point. I mean, FOONGUS? Come on.. -.-)
Basculin ♂: Young Lady
Swadloon ♀: MK (Mary-Kate - why? It looks like it's wrapped in a bedsheet and this is based upon the "Very Mary Kate" series)

true story

Re: So, whos picking up Pokemon Black/White?

Krookodile is amazingly solid for when you find it as a Sandile. It actually has more Speed than Reshiram/Zekrom, both of which are vulnerable to its STAB Earthquake, and between Intimidate, amazing typing and a good Attack stat, this thing will see you through more of the end game than you might think as long as you keep it away from Grimsley's Bisharp. If yours has Moxie, it starts as a revenge killer, but then it turns into a physical sweeper. This thing is scary as hell.

Conkeldurr is also turning out to be about as much of a threat as Machamp was in earlier games, only with more Attack (the highest non-legendary in the game, actually...not even Kyurem has that much), more physical bulk, and access to STAB priority in Mach Punch that Machamp wishes he had. In a related vein, Escavalier has a very good chance to be the best Trick Room sweeper of all time. Balanced defenses, lots of resistances, and the same base Attack as the pseudo-legendary Metagross means it doesn't need Speed. Pretty much an offensive version of Forretress. This thing WILL kick your ass if you let it set up.

Finally, Volcarona. Just...Volcarona. In one turn, all of its best stats get boosted with Quiver Dance, after which it can wreck everyone (make sure you don't switch it into too many entry hazards, though). Alder's version would have swept me away if it weren't for the recharge turn of Hyper Beam.

Power creep? Yes. Awesome game? Hell yes.
