Discussion of the Serebii.net Black & White Discovery Thread

[Beeblebrox]

I think it's fair to say that the C&D was a bit of a **** move. Really, under fair use, Nintendo don't have a leg to stand on, and I would hope that Serebii or Water Pokemon Master has made this point.

 

[Isis-sama]

So is the C&D confirmed to be real, or is everybody still playing it cautious? Not that I blame them for doing so, but there's been more than a fair bit of speculation about the legitimacy of this thing and I'm not sure where everything stands at the moment. I hope if it is real it's only about the ROMs. It's still somewhat of, like others have said, a **** move but at least they have something of a reason, whereas they're protesting stuff from legitimate import copies being shown in America they're basically just being jerks.

And yeah, I do kind of agree that it's somehow not the same without images, and also being told off on top of that. Please try to keep it up though Serebii, we do really appreciate it.

 

[abgar]

its kind of funny how the pokemon move now, but they keep doing the same sequence even when hurt by a move or fainting... well more awkward than funny, i dont know why i feel that way, in every other main pokemon game the pokemon dont move at all during the battle.


maybe someone could ask if serebii (or others) can upload photos taken directly from the screen of a DS.

 

[Ash-kid]

So Triple battles are only at the end of the game? Too bad. I thought they will be much more important than that...

It's a relief to see an accurate list of exclusives. That fake one that was making the rounds was going to make picking one version over another a very hard sell.

And now, the majority is going to buy White Version. It has Wargle.
I loved how everyone changed. At first majority said they were going for Black, because, well, it's Black. Then the majority swung to White because it had Zekrom, and Zekrom was the black legendary.
Back to Black again when everyone thought Wargle would be Black Exclusive, and once again I predict it will swing to White.

I'd probably prefer black. Though depending on what my significant other and I discuss I may end up with white . . . I prefer Monmon to Churine, but that's just me.(Though i like Churine a lot, plus I really like Reshiram, and while Wargle's cool and all I prefer Koromori (assuming it can use Fly).

"Clean Scales" is wonderful, wonderful item. About 3 or 4 years ago I found a shiny Feebas, but accidentally used the wrong PokeBlock and maxed it out, so it could no longer evolve into a Milotic. 2 generations later, I can finally evolve it.

And now it is clear how White is superior. Rankurusu, Wargle, Zekrom forever.

I'm surprised the two crystalized fighting dudes are version exclusive.

I am actually still getting Black, and it was determined from the beginning.

Zekrom messed me up, but my girlfriend and I are trading legendaries, because I want Zekrom and she wants Reshiram, but we really wanted Black/White respectively.

I personally have no interest in Wargle. Not that I don't like him. But I wouldn't be swayed by that. If anything, Ranculous is a version exclusive I'd be bawing about not having (I don't really like Gothiselle), but whatever. We're gonna trade version exclusives anyway.

I prefer the White exclusives, but in all honesty, I am not going to really use them in my team (maybe Zekrom, but not until the end anyway), so it doesn't matter.

I wonder what older Pokemon are going to be version exclusive though.

Also- w00t! New Feebas evolution method. Mind blown.

I prefer Monmon to Churine, but that's just me.(Though i like Churine a lot, plus I really like Reshiram, and while Wargle's cool and all I prefer Koromori (assuming it can use Fly).

Actually, there is an in-game trade so you can get the opposite one. So even if you got White (with Churine) you can trade it with someone in the game to get Monmen and let the breeding happen to get a better one or something.

And Koromori can indeed learn Fly.

I'm doing a similar thing with my brother. We both decided as soon as the games names were leaked (like we do with every generation) who was getting which one. "Ranculous" is really the only version exclusive a care about.

I always tend to get the 'Blue' games.

My main games each gen were Blue, Gold, Sapphire, LeafGreen, Diamond, HeartGold and now Black.

And by 'blue', I mean ones that are either, actually blue (Blue/Sapphire/Diamond), Not Red (LeafGreen) or the closest thing to 'blue'.

Gold was initially an exception, but I wound up getting Crystal as well, which IS Blue. HeartGold has Sapphire's exclusive Legendaries (Latias/Kyogre), so that worked out as well.

Black version works out because of the term "black and blue", not to mention, Reshiram's eyes are Blue (Zekrom's are Red). So that's good enough for me. lol.

 

[Stardust .]

Serebii, will you ever be able to put pictures up of Black and White anymore?

 

[Pliam]

This is my first post ever, so I'm sorry if it's in the wrong thread.


In the Version Exclusives section in the main site, it lists Churine and Monmen, but they are exchangable in an in-game trade, in Shippou City.


Does that disqualify them as version exclusive?

 

[Smolya]

Who will lay out such

animated sprites?

Yes and no. I will include them in the page but still

I'd actually be all over this, however I only have the first sprite (I guess?) from each Pokemon. I saved them all off of Veekun's Pokedex, but I couldn't seem to find the secondary sprites. D:

i think someone said gastly,shinx,rhyhorn,and wurmple are in the white forest. hope its true

 

[ForeverFlame]

None of the version exclusives are that significant, so I'm still going with Pokemon Black because of Reshiram and the game name.
