Im usually not one to complain about namens but the german names are just .... Idk theyre funny til you realize they arent joke names found on the internet >_<
Basically every name is 2 words merged together, mostly to form a horrible pun or something.
I mean I had a laughing attack when I found out the big dog thing is called bissbark (bitebark, refereng to bismark)

Anyway, 6 badges, have the rock thing, the plant starter, the bird final evolution (which is not shiny despite being brown :<) the water ape, munna and the boulder wielding fighting guy. Id like to switch some pokemon but Its pretty hard, want to use the candle badly :D
 
So I've got Waterfall and stuff, looking for stuff to do, THINK I've done about everything after beating the E4.
 
I find it kinda funny that nobody, that's posted there team, has put victini in there. It's one of the best pokemon in the game. I use him and it's awsome.
 
Pretty much because Victini is worth saving for EV training and stuff. That's what I'm doing anyway.

But yeah, a Fire/Psychic will tear through most of the game.
 
I'm going to use my Victini to play through the game. I don't do enough competitive battling anymore to care about EV training.

My team (as of right now):
Dewott
Herdier
Tranquill
Victini
Blitzle
Sandile
All low 20's
 
I'll be using Victini on my team. So far only 2 badges, but then again I had to finish reading A Wise Man's Fear over the weekend too.

Edit, oh and that 2nd gym leader was silly hard. Beat her on the first try with no fighting types, but only barely. Had one guy left standing on my team with 5 hp. He gained two levels with that final KO....
 
My team right now in White is:

Lv. 28 Pignite
Lv. 28 Gurdurr (Can someone trade with me to evolve into Conkeldurr?)
Lv. 29 Pansage
Lv. 29 Tirtouga
Lv. 29 Drilbur
Lv. 32 Duosion
 
Right now, I collected all 8 badges and I'm now on Victory Road. Haven't tried out the White Forest (High Light) feature yet. Here is what I have as my current lineup.

Samurott Lv. 61
Duosion Lv. 32 (Bold Nature)
Gurrdurr Lv. 33
Victini Lv. 30
Rufflet Lv. 38
Ferroseed Lv. 32

So far, I like the game and my current progress time is 12:02 after collecting all 8 badges. There are some things I like about the game and others I don't like so much

Pros

+Cool trainer sprites
+The guy at the entrance in every gym giving you a free water bottle
+Doctor trainers healing your Pokemon after battle
+Wild Pokemon Double Battles
+I heard the RNG feature is easier to use
+Excellent 3D graphics
+Excelllent music
+I love how you can press the Y button and the key items you select after you register them instantly pop up.
+ C-Gear feature is cool. In fact, I found 3 different kids yesterday at Mcdonalds, thanks to the C-Gear featyre, and challenged them to a battle!


Cons

-Lack of Rare Candies
-You have to earn 2 badges to go on wifi
-Wasn't crazy about the random battle feature.
-Meh.... i'm not too fond of the musical theater.
 
Rectaching Virizion. Forgot to save LOL> But is easy to catch. False Swipe on Haxorus and Zebstrika's Thunder Wave get the job done.
I plan to EV train a Haxorus for competitive play in Attack and Speed. I need as much speed on it since people may be going with Hydreigon. Hydreigon's a bit faster (only by 1 Base Speed). He will be a physical sweeper. Though, I dunno if I should have Swords Dance or Dragon Dance. Probs DDance since I could have FSash and survive...
lol, I seriously need to shut up.
I won't spoil anything, but just gonna say the game's story is very awesome. Engaged me a lot. Extremely fun to play.

ALSO get yourselves a Haxorus. Seriously, he is broken.
He has a decent speed (97) and ridiculous Attack (147).
He takes a while to get (evolves at LV 48) but he is DEF worth it. Helps out with Legend captures (due to Swords Dance and False Swipe) and has the ability to sweep. STAB Dragon Claw w/ 120 base, that's a LOT of damage. Destroys the Elite 4 easily.
You need Surf. Go to Mistralton Cave and run around for a bit (they are a bit rare, but you can find an Axew within about 4-6 encounters). Simply train.
Evo line= Axew -> LV.38 -> Fraxure -> LV.48 -> Haxorus.
I'm naming mine 'Hax R Us' because of how awesome it is.

Random Question - Anyone have a spare Xatu/Natu?

team in white:

Excadrill
Samurrot
Darmanitan
Throh
Stoutland
6th slot is always changing XD. First it was Pansear, then Audino, next Timburr, and finally a Litwick. Right now I've got a Woobat in that slot so I can fly places.

I just beat Iris. She's easier then she looked.......
 
My white team:

Serperior Lv 42
Gigalith Lv 42
Swoobat Lv 42 (to be replaced with Litwick)
Conkeldurr Lv 43
Simipour Lv 41
Vanillish Lv 41

Things I like about the game are:
-The shaking grass/sand/water feature
-3D graphics
-Critical capture feature
-The guy that gives you bottles of water in gyms
-Puzzles in the gyms
-Double wild encounter (anyone noticed the annoying glitch that happens if both your Pokemon need to be replaced?)
-The music in the Team Plasma battles
-C-Gear is pretty cool
-Re-using TMs
-Getting a lucky egg so easily
-Getting randomly healed by some trainers

There's not too much that I don't like about it:
-Could be more in-game triple battles
-Having 2 rivals is sometimes annoying
-Not being able to trade Pokemon that know HMs
-Not a fan of the musicals, contests were better...

About to do the last gym :)
 
just got my white about an hour ago (it was released today in australia), i'm playing it right now, i've got:

lv 15 tepig
lv 11 pansage
lv 4 patrat
lv 7 audino

and the 1st badge

so far it's quite good, the graphics are really good as well, can't wait to use the tms now that they are reusable.
 
So just a heads up, the shiny beasts and Celebi aparently only unlock events on the games they are initially transferred too. Or can only be used to unlock the event once.. One of the two.
