Oh hey

[Cell Shaded Envy]

Brendan had an awesome hat.

[Gwen]

Shocked me when I found out that was a hat on Brendan.

[Lilly]

I honestly thought it was a fancy headband!

Hey, Brandon was great.

Better than May for me honestly.

I didn't like May either, (And she was apparently an annoyance in the Anime show too.) but at least she had a natural hair color. I didn't think the guy looked that bad, but his white hair and black body suit kinda turned me off. Then came Lucas with his silly looking hat, and I wound up stuck with Dawn so I wouldn't have to walk around with it on. The weird hat thing got reversed in HS/SS, so I was happy to go with the dude in that remake.

Maybe I'm just being a picky turd, who knows? =P

[Garamonde]

I did like May, I just wasn't crazy about her head wrap thingy.

If I'm gonna be honest, Wally is the best Trainer. He is just so cute. I wanted to play as him so bad.

Pokémon Smash comes on in an hour and a half on some Japanese channel. Some nice members of /vp/ plan to stream it, so you might wanna keep that in an open tab. We'll soon see what else BW2 has in store for us.

[Mutsukki]

Oh cool! I hope we get to see some gameplay or something about the story!

Alright guys. Smash is starting!
I'm just gonna warn you. There is going to be a lot of lag in this and every stream you'll find. Someone said to install Keyhole TV and watch it on your media player, but you guys will need to find that stuff.

EDIT
Well that was a disappointment. They just showed a clip from the upcoming movie and announced the pokémon we've known about since BW came out.
Well... there's always next week.

[Mutsukki]

That sucks ): We should be getting more information soon, shouldn't we? I mean, isn't the game actually going to be released pretty soon?

[Chdonga]

It gets released in June in Japan, and sometime in Autumn for us westerners.
I'm starting to get skeptical though. I think this is just gonna be another Yellow/Crystal/Emerald/Platinum, but now in two versions. I don't expect an entire new generation, but it feels like they're just keeping secretive about everything because they're trying to keep us from being disappointed before the game gets launched.

Meh, it is the sequel. All the legwork is already done from the first game, all they'd have to do is make a new scenario and add improvements/new visuals to what's already there. (While also maybe new trainers for the player, if they would actually say anything about the sequel's plot we'd probably know.) Localizing it for multiple regions wouldn't be half as time-consuming either if they leave things like the Pokedex text alone. I think that might explain why the release dates are so close, unless they've been working on it since Black/White 1's release and just now decided to actually reveal anything about it to the press. =P

i will not accept this as a sequel unless it gets a safari zone, game corner, or something else that makes the game actually have replay value that isnt wifi

You can probably count on some Battle Subway improvments (like it happened with the Platinum Battle Tower).

Also, I've never noticed how Safari Zone was absent from the game, funny. But Game Corner might be something else, since they removed slot machines from the Western version of HeartGold/SoulSilver and replaced with Voltorb Flip (awesome, by the way), I wonder if they don't just want to avoid it altogheter.

[DioShiba]

I honestly don't understand why they bothered to remove the game corner.

OMG EUROPE THINKS GAMBLING SHOULDN'T BE IN VIDEO GAMES.

that's just dumb, game freak is an entertainment business. They shouldn't have to hang on to their cocks over in europe and make it so that no one gets a game corner around the world. Hell even the change in the game corner in HG/SS bugged me.

[A.J. Nitro]

They should definitely bring back more move tutors. Like the ones in Platinum that you give shards to. Much easier than having to go through the battle frontier a billion times just to get a single move. Oh and Safari Zone and classic game corner.

[Locked Achievement]

More daily training centres. And more triple/rotation battles. And more 3D orgasmish-ness. And more animations in-battle. And better storytelling. And more customisability.
