Official Pokemon Black and White thread. (loads of new info with lots of spoilers)

[Merci]

Stuck somewhere in Pokemon White. Seriously, I just want to get all this over with and catch my Zekrom and Kyurem, but NOOOOO, I'm stuck, so I'll just do the Pokemon Musical until I figure out how to get of my situation.

[Rockin' Rollin' Duelist]

Pm me about where you're stuck at merciful, and I'll help ya out.

 

BTW : Kyurem is overrated. It's not that good. My Ononox is much better

[Dark]

...it's a Pokemon game. You can't be stuck, unless you are so underleveled that you can't progress anywhere, and even then grinding is the best option in RPG-styled games.

 

What do you mean by "stuck", then?

Well, it would be possible to become stuck if you just don't know where to go next, since there are a few parts that are not linear, and if you're playing the game in Japanese, you have no way of knowing where to go. (Assuming the player does not speak Japanese.)

 

Other than that, it's pretty much impossible to get stuck.

[Dark]

Outside of translation problems, you cannot get stuck.

 

But even so, just spend a few hours dicking around until you find out something. You don't need a walkthrough whatsoever (although I recommend it if you are impatient), and in a game setting like this, adding a few hours to your total game time won't change a thing.

Black is aweshum. Leaving the lab now. I picked Mijumaru. The 3D is amazing! I just caught Yooterii.

 

Ok, I'm in the patch of tall grass right next to the first Youngster, trying to catch chroneko.

[Astro Dude]

Aww man. With all the supposed evolutions I figgured the Buffalo pokemon would be the evolved form of Tauros.

[Βyakuya]

Does anyone know the best place to download an ROM? And when I download, it, please, someone give instructions to how to set it up. +1 for the first person.

 

And, Buffalon is not the evolution of Tauros. Just as Mamanbou is not the evolution of Luvdisc.

Asking for ROMs publicly is not the best idea; it is against YCM rules, and I'm pretty sure it is illegal as well, especially if you don't own a copy of Pokemon Black/White already. <___<

 

Have someone tell you via PM.

[.Frostpaw]

Just beat the Grass leader in the first gym. Sand-Attack was very useful. Did anyone else grab the free monkey in the ruins west of Sanyou?

I didn't really know, but I'll try to resist not too as I'll spoil myself probably.

[Tentacruel]

I actually own a hard copy of the game. LEGALLY. [/gloat]

 

 

My team:

 

I beat the E4 and still haven't decided on a 6th member.

[Zextra]

Are you trying to avoid typical members, such as Sazandora, Shanderaa, Ulgamoth, and Ononokusu?

Personally, I like a couple others, such as: Zoroark (which is pretty unlikely), Shibirudon, Kirikizan, and Wargle...

Just my preferences, which don't mean anything...

Sazandra = Awesome as hell

 

Shandera = Pathetic

 

Ulgamoth = WAY overrated

 

Ononokosu = Cool

 

Zoroark = Weak as hell

 

Shibirudon = horrible

 

Kirikizan = FRICKIN' AWESOME

 

Wargle = Boring

 

 

 

 

My Ultimate Team

*****************

1. Enbuoh

2. Zeburaika

3. Gochiruzeru

4. Sazandra

5. Kirikizan

6. Abagoura

[Dark]

SENSE HAS NOT BEEN MADE.

 

Wargle is an effing postman. You fail at life. But, more logically:

 

Shandera = Pathetic

 

Ulgamoth = WAY overrated

 

Shandera has Shadow Tag as a Dream World ability, and even if you mean in-game, it's a pretty accessible Ghost-type that also gets a decent Fire STAB if you didn't choose the ugly-and-stupid-as-hell pig.

 

Butterfly Dance is easily the most broken move in the BW in-game game, and Ulgamoth has SpA, SpD, and Spe base stats all 100 or higher, meaning it can very effectively use this move. One turn of set-up and it's essentially good game.

 

 

[Βyakuya]

^ Agreed. Butterfly Dance is just a mish-mash of level ups on almost all the base stats of the pokemon. When I try to face against some Ulgamoth, just several Butterfly dances and I'm in trouble.

 

And Shandera is not horrible in my opinion. I

 

And to the side, I don't know why Abagoura is very popular.

 

But still, my overall question is to get either a Mijumaru or Tsutaja for my starter. Which one is more better? And please, no opinions.

[Zextra]

In game, Daikenki is probably better, because of it's higher offensive stats, as opposed to Jaroda's. However, Jaroda's speed can be awesome when combined with it's Dream World ability and Leaf Storm. However, ultimately, which one of them is truly "better" is dependent on the situation.

[Βyakuya]

Well, there are others I like, but there's Desukan. Good or Bad? I like him, but I don't know about it's moveset, and/or stats. What do you think?

I don't do the Dream World thing. Also, the "Pig" is the best starter. My favorite ghost is Deskaan. Ulgamoth is praised as being so amazing, yet I destroyed it when I found it. It was like what, level 70. I beat it with a level 59 Miruhoggu that knows Crunch, Thunder Bolt, Shadow Ball and Vengeance.

[Felix]

Wow, you beat a wild Pokemon, congrats :/

 

Doryuuzu is the best sweeper new gen, i think, given Sand Storm support. Nattorei looks pretty good defensively, but I'm not sure about others.

Mijumaru is probably the best of the three starters in-game. At level 17 it evolves and learns Shell Blade, whose 75 Power and 95 Accuracy can blast through the competition until you pick up the Surf and Waterfall HMs. It also can learn Vengeance, a 70 base power Normal-type attack whose TM appears very early in the game. With the awesome power of Water/Normal coverage, Mijumaru and its evolutions will have no trouble breaking the enemies before them, especially with their powerful offensive stats. It also is compatible with Dig and Grass Knot, both extremely early TMs that have great coverage with Water. Revenge, Surf, Waterfall, and Strength all add to an impressive and expansive in-game movepool. Using Mijumaru also means you can use Boappu instead of Yannapu, who suffers many of the same weaknesses as Tsutaja.

[Βyakuya]

Well, that's kinda in depth more for my likes of Mijumaru.

 

I'm looking forward to add these pokemon to my team/collection:

 

Daikenki

Lepardas

Waruvial

Rankurusu

Doredia

Kirikizan

Baibabira

Roobushin

Desukan

Burungeru

Gigigear

Shandera

Oobemu

Ononokus

Agirudaa

Kojondo

Goruugu

Sazandora

Zekrom

Meloetta

[Rockin' Rollin' Duelist]

I have them all

[Zextra]

@TheDeadMichael - Meloetta can only be obtained by cheats, currently...

Also, the reason why some people avoid the Fire Pig as their starter is because of its horrid DEF, SP.DEF, and SPD... Offensively, it's the best, but it'll most likely be knocked out before it can do any real damage...

 

Anyways, my team upon first beating the initial Elite 4 was:

• Daikenki

• Aakeosu

• Shanderaa

• Ononokusu

• Rankurusu

• HM Slave Miruhogg

 

Then, after the Elite 4, I modified my team a bit (though it's quite unbalanced)

• Daikenki

• Aakeosu

• Shanderaa

• Ononokusu

• Sazandra

• Urugamosu

 

Then, after that, I raised a couple of "team alternates"

• Kirikizan

• Wargle

• Baibanira

• Denchura

• Waruviaru

[Tentacruel]

I'd get Shandera but I already have both a ghost and a fire type. (The mummy and the pig/monkey)
