Adthegreat Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Let's see, I have: Red, Yellow, Gold, Crystal, Ruby, FireRed, Diamond and HeartGold. whichever is first, which sounds weird as a reason anyway. If you have siblings who also play then it makes a lot of sense
Paj! Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 I'm crying light in anticipation. WHICH VERSION SHOULD I GET?! I'll get black I think. Serebii which do you prefer?
Serebii Posted February 28, 2011 Author Posted February 28, 2011 Black seems to fit more with me, but white is cool. It's really hard to say :P
Daft Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 What are the differences? Are they that major? I thought it was just a few pokemon.
S.C.G Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 What are the differences? Are they that major? I thought it was just a few pokemon. Version exclusive areas... White = White Forest Black = Black City But you can visit the other places via local wireless if you know someone who has the other version.
Coolness Bears Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 I'mma get White. this was decided many moons ago.
Murr Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Fuck it, I'm just going to get both. I Want 2 Vicinti. Got every other version so may as-well continue this trend.

Ramar Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Just placed my pre-order now, gone with Game in the hope of getting it a day early.
Ike Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 GAME have started processing my order, though I'm not expecting it to ship until at least Wednesday, they are probably just starting early like they do on all high profile games.
IAmMarti Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 that reminds me I need to phone Oxford street and preorder there.......
canand Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 GAME have started processing my order, though I'm not expecting it to ship until at least Wednesday, they are probably just starting early like they do on all high profile games. yeah same with me it might ship tomorrow and we have it on Wednesday.
Fused King Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Well, after saying to myself that I'd be done with Pokemon after Pearl/Diamond....I went and bought HeartGold and now it looks like I'll be buying Pokemon White..... The adventure has always made me smile, and not knowing what Black/White is all about, I will hopefully be most pleased.

The Peeps Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Well, after saying to myself that I'd be done with Pokemon after Pearl/Diamond....I went and bought HeartGold and now it looks like I'll be buying Pokemon White..... The adventure has always made me smile, and not knowing what Black/White is all about, I will hopefully be most pleased. I did exactly the same. In fact the only reason I bought Heart Gold was because I hadn't played Gold in sooo long and when I went to play my copy I found that the save function no longer worked. I hope Black will be refreshing enough to get me excited about pokémon again. There was a time when I could've named them all in order...
Murr Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Question(s) With the Vicinti event that'll be happening pretty much right from the start at launch, is it... 1 - a Wi-Fi event I can do from home like the Legendary trio at the moment, or is it location specific like the Celebi? 2 - I've read on Serebii.net that you receive a liberty pass which grant's you access to catch it.... * Is it Masterball worthy so like Mewtwo?? * Ho-oh / Lugia difficulty to catch so like tough battle, rip your hair out at the amount of pokeballs/ultraballs etc you use?? * or is it easy enough to snag with an Ultra ball or two?

It's WiFi 2. It's a tough battle, Catch Rate of 3 so it'll annoy you. Not the best for Master Ball (I say use those on Roamers), but a Quick Ball straight away may be useful
Ike Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 GAME shipped my order. Probably delayed delivery though.
Serebii Posted March 1, 2011 Author Posted March 1, 2011 GAME shipped my order. Probably delayed delivery though. And mine
Tales Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 1. It's WiFi2. It's a tough battle, Catch Rate of 3 so it'll annoy you. Not the best for Master Ball (I say use those on Roamers), but a Quick Ball straight away may be useful I really hope 3DS works better than my DS's. Anyone has a spare shiny dog set? I can trade when I go home to my family in Easter. I have spare Deoxys someone cloned for me a while ago(I catched it myself). It's touched though. I have some spare RBY birds and Darkrai(I think) too. I will go to GAME, hungover, on Friday. Don't trust the mail after the dreaded FFXIII incident.
IAmMarti Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 http://bulbanews.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:BW_mall_tour_7.jpg If these are at the event on Thursday, due to the terrible cold and all the pills im using to cure it, oh and I have conjunctivitus now. I'll be freaking out D:
Debug Mode Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 My copy of White has been shipped, Black is still in processing since last night and hasn't been picked and packed yet. Ah well, White was the version I was going to play first, so all is good!
ShadowV7 Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Hmm, still unsure whether to get round to pre-ordering this and joining in the Pokémon fun. Was considering Black, since it's black, but White looked nicer scenery and not so tech advanced. Hearing it getting shipped at first doesn't help. Just don't want a repeat of everything and I think the games haven't went down since Gold/Silver. I guess I best read some impressions on it.
