For those of you who vehemently play the VG, if I may be so bold: A new champion has been chosen! :eek: You may know her as an energetic young gym leader from a land of dragons. I kid you not. our new Unova champion: IRIS!

I have been watching the news on all the reveals, and all the old gen 3 & 4 legendary pokemon like Latios and cresselia are available in this game.

Also the amount of hidden abilities available are nice too.
 
It will be nice to get a good amount of Pokemon with their hidden abilities. The move tutors being brought back is a great addition as well, time saving for those who breed.
Having the Regi's and Pixies is nice, being able to obtain them again is a nice bonus.
So many goodies being tossed into the mix will keep the replay value high in the future.
 
^Is wild Eevees good enough for you? And the stones are puchasable in the games.
 
^ Never cared so much for wild Eevee. The Eeveelutions are only good through breeding so that's not much of a big deal for me. Now, a Vaporeon with Thunderbolt would be awesome.

Maybe even give Pidgeot a useable ability because they are all bad.
 
There is a hold item called "shinning charm" that increases the chance of encountering shiny Pokemon.
There is a "round charm" that makes it easier for the daycare guy to find eggs easier.

4 move tutors return, requiring shards to use to teach the moves.
 
But the tutors really don't have anything that wasn't in Platinum/HeartGold/SoulSilver.
It will make life easier on my Arbok for dark pulse now for sure and I am excited to see what the Black/White pokemon get for tutors and any move changes pokemon get, like Scizor did in Platinum:thumb:
 
^True, but at least they were nice enough to bring the tutors back. It'll be less time in the breeding department, that is for certain.

I also like how they added a "Difficulty" setting to the games. You get keys to raise or lower the games difficulty level, and your able to pass the feature onto others. This will add to the level of replay value so much.
So much stuff they have tossed into thee next games is unbelievable, but it sure is a great answer to alot of player's "requests" to get the games up-to-date so that you don't have to go back through so many methods to get something simple.
 
It looks as if there is a promising return to the berries being able to be grown. Some hidden items include the gooey mulch and other multch types in the Hidden Hallows areas. Nice! Now to go get berries from the Dreamworld.
 
So B2/W2 is looking to be like Platinum, a huge improvement over the first versions? I know, different story, but has upgrades from B/W, better access to non-BW pokemon, etc. Is this the gist?
 
BW2 is more then a Platnium compliment to BW. It is turning out to be a serious up-date to unite alot of things left behind in the older games. It is a huge step in closing in a lot of the gaps caused by the game's history of crossing onto the next handheld. BW2 is also a continuation of the story on BW, things have changed, and yes- the main core of the game is there (battle the gyms, earn badges)- but with all of the goodies they are bringing back to the games onto one system is looking better and better with new additions along with branching onto the stroy line.
