Been lazy about playing, need to step up my game. Passed the second gym a couple days ago, and have been running around Hiun City and Route 4 for the past two days. Don't think I'm anywhere near ready to take on the third gym, sadly. I wub wub my Yuko and Akicha though (see pic above).

Even Pokemon..
In a certain place in a certain street in Pokemon.

There's this part where the remarks of the people you pass by (in the game) automatically appear but then

I was called 「Plain!」*

How did you know...that's so depressing..
Translation notes:
* - 'plain' in the sense that Sasshi's like any other person (unlike the 'idol' image)

All the talk about black and white is really tempting me to play it, but I hate, hate, hate playing games on ROM.
Especially DS games. "Spring 2011" needs to hurry up and get here! :nervous

I'm definitely looking forward/play the US version. The Japanese version was alright, even though I didn't understand half the time.
at least I managed to finish the game, it was easy.

here's my team (after defeating Cynthia)

I was at a Pokemon event for Celebi today (had to wait around for 3 hours because of some technical difficulty :/)
and got 3 :D so many people were there crowded for the event because of the delay, so I transmitted a Deoxys into the crowd from Pokemon Ranger (everyone was constantly searching even though the download kiosk wasn't there yet, lol) and some kid (I hope anyways, lol) got it, I never found out who it was... lol

I heard someone mention Pokemon Stadium the other day.

Makes me wanna hook up that cartridge thing that went into the back of the N64 controller, plug in Pokemon Blue, and battle with my Pocket Monsters right on the big screen.

I've been thinking about getting into Pokemon again. If I get a 3DS, then I'll definitely resume.

I like how in Pokemon Black there are cities that have Tron-like buildings. Pretty dope looking
I vote for TOZ as the most gangsta~  :otomerika:

I really don't regret getting Pokemon White at launch, even though I was kind of indifferent about it at the time. Changed my mind the moment I started it up, haha. What is it about this game that makes it feel like I'm playing Pokemon for the very first time? o_O; It can't just be the new Pokemon, can it? And if so, they definitely need to come up with a new set of 150 pokemon for every game from now on :yep:

To me it feels like leveling the pokemon is speedier and not as bothersome as with previous generations. That might just be me, though. I've always been slow about training my team *is a careful trainer*

... and now that I'm into this thing I need to remember to keep myself updated on downloadable gifts. I got the liberty pass, but yeah...

Munna is my new favourite Pokemon :wub:

As a side note, how come I only come across male Pokemon? o_o; I have like one female Pokemon, and the rest are all guys. Where the girls at? xD;

Whaaat. Is your main character a boy? I mean, I chose the girl (yay pink everywhere 8D ), but that really shouldn't make a difference, should it? :[

No it doesn't make a difference :D each pokemon has a ratio of male to female, so certain species get more or less males or females, depending on this ratio.

This is actually something to do with breeding again xD (sorry Twiss!!! XDDD) females are usually rarer because they can make babies of their species, but a lot of people (in previous games at least) prefer male pokemon because they can pass on TM's to their children, when TM's were one use only, this was more useful, but in B/W they're unlimited, so \o/ it's mostly for egg moves now.
(egg moves are moves that pokemon usually cannot learn, but if the father pokemon knows it, they can pass it onto the baby pokemon)

my team now is:
Victini lv30
Servine lv31
Panpour lv29
Munna lv27
Tranquil lv29
Herdier lv31

I just beat the 5th gym and I'm in a lightning cave :O

As much as I might want to prance around the virtual world as a girl, I chose to be a guy instead XD

Bogus theory: trainers attract the opposite gender in wild pokemon xD

My current team:

Blitzle lvl 16
Patrat lvl 15
Tepig (renamed Piglet 8D ) lvl 16
Timburr lvl 17
Purrloin (renamed Purrlion) lvl 17
Herdier lvl 18

I just beat the second gym, foooo~ Will get Munna back on my team after getting through Pinwheel Forest, weakness for forest critters :/

My progress is slow, because most days I only play for about half an hour or so during lunch :lol:

Whaa, I love the dowsing machine 8D Hahahaha and how nifty that you can assign more than one thing to the Y-button :hearts: small improvements, I love them.

I got White on the release date and I've been playing it pretty hardcore. :sweatdrop:
My team is all mid thirties:

Samurott
Scraggy
Galvantula
Excadrill
Duosion
Simisear (hoping to replace this thing shortly.)

One of my friends is already at Victory Road though, so I don't feel so bad. :nervous

Also, if anyone has Black and would feel like catching a Cottonee in a premier ball and trading it to me that would be beyond awesome. :twothumbs
