<div align="center"><img src="http://pokebeach.com/news/0410/pokemon-black-white.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" /></div>

<p align=" " class="none">There have been a lot of topics around several forums about Pokémon Black and White. This thread is for discussion about the game. I will add pre-release pics, information and videos when necessary.

Pokémon Black and White is the fifth generation Pokémon game. It will have an increased use of 3D computer graphics. The only known new Pokémon at this point, are Zorua and Zoroark. The region's name is Isshu (イッシュ) and is located far away from other Pokémon regions. Zoroark's ability to take on the appearance of another Pokémon is called 'Illusion' (イリュージョン). The main characters are much older than in any other Pokémon game. The game will be released on the Nintendo DS. It has a Fall 2010 release in Japan and a Spring 2011 release in North America and Europe.</p>

ream World - Guide by nekoakuma]
<div align="center">
This is just a collection of information from other threads and (sort of) sorted out.

Pokemon Global Link, DreamWorld and HighLink will be noted as PGL, DW, HL respecitively.

Connecting to the DreamWorld
Requirements:
-PGL account synced to your game. [There are guides on this. If anyone has a link for it that'd be helpful]
-Sleeping Pokemon [Done via C-Gear in game]
-National Dex [Unconfirmed. Some people had problems with DW. If you haven't beaten E4 for the first time, try get on DW and post what happens]

With all that done go to the PGL website and login.
From there, you can see a Blue Pokeball. Click that to go to the DW.
You will meet Professor Makomo [i think it was] who will go through the tutorial and explain features for you.
After reading or skipping the tutorial you are free to go through the DW as you please.

Can't Connect to DW/Troubleshooting
If you can read Japanese, here's a better version <a href="http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2010/10/at101007_01.html" target="_blank">http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2010/10/at101007_01.html</a>

A. If you see the pop-up in the first picture in the link it's saying that the servers are busy and you are unable to connect at the moment. The LEFT button closes the dialogue, the RIGHT button wakes up your Pokemon.

B. Very rarely you may get an unexpected error. Try relogging into your account (actually type ID and password) or switch browsers.

C. The bottom right of the PGL site has a link to a DW Server Status. Check it if you can't connect.
O = Good
^ = Busy
X = Full

Important Information
-You may only put a pokemon to sleep ONCE per day.
-You have a maximum of 1 hour in the DW each day. You cannot split the hour into 30mins and 30mins.
-You can only bring back one Pokemon a day from DW.
-Make sure you properly exit the DW and don't just close the browser as some data may not be saved.

When your 1 hour is up you will be given a message and it has 3 options (cf: 3rd last picture in link above)
From L->R:
"Wake Pokemon Up and End"
"End without waking up"
"Close"

When you finish the DW you will be given a message as to when you can connect next. [ie; 24 hours later.]

Interacting with the DW

Interacting with the DW is done by clicking various items or arrows that appear on screen. Your sleeping pokemon will appear in the DW and you can click on it (and other pokemon you meet) for more information.

Areas

Home
-Starting Area.
-Welcome Mat may be changed.
-Click on the door to go inside your house.

Inside House
The inside of your house is pretty bare at the start.
-Book on the table is the Shop Catalogue to purchase new items for your house. Payment is made in berries.
-The FRIEND BOARD is important. Friends you make in the DW will show on this board, and can then be marked so that they will appear in HL for you to catch.
-Treasure Chest : Allows you to send berries/items to your game.

Berry Stand (Right from house I think)
You can place Berries here for friends to take/trade. PGL/DW friends are those that you have in your PalPad.

Planting Fields (Left from house)
Easy enough to work. Plant berries and water them.

Friend Area (I'm not sure where this is, but it should be there somewhere)
You can visit your friends houses.

Rainbow Path
This leads to Dream Isle where you can befriend pokemon and find more berries.

Dream Isle
You may find pokemon in different areas throughout the DW.
If you see a shaking tree or bush click on it to make the pokemon appear.
If you find a shiny patch, click on it to get a berry or an item.

Befriending Pokemon
When you encounter Pokemon in the DW they will want to play a game with you. (more on that below)
The games seem similar to that in PokePark Wii.
You have to do good in the games to be friends with the pokemon.

Dream Tree
In the top left corner will be a steps remaining counter. This shows how many more "steps" it takes to get to the Dream Tree.

-At the Dream Tree you can also see other trainers Pokemons who are also in the DW at the moment.
-The Dream Tree is important as this is where you can select your pokemon to go to HL. You must offer up a berry before you can choose.
-Only Pokemon you are friends with may be chosen to go along.
-NOTE: Once you have selected Pokemon to go with you, you will not be able to go to the Dream Isle again until it has been caught in HL.

Catching DW Pokemon
In BW, sync your game by going to Wifi -> Sync and wake up your pokemon.
Then proceed to go to Wireless-> HighLink and go to the Forest north of where you start.
Once there you will see the overworld sprites (from HGSS) of the Pokemon you chose.
Talk to hit and press Yes to start a 'battle' sequence.
Open your bag and select the DreamBall to catch it.
Minigames in DW

There are various minigames to be played in the DW to befriend Pokemon. As the DW has just opened there are surely other minigames to occur. If you have one not posted here, or have more information on some games, please post them using the following format.

Name: (Japanese Name if you know it, or a rough english name so we know what it is)
Type: One or two words stating what type of game it is.
Description: Describe the game.
Pokemon: Pokemon that appear in the game. *optional*

Type: Race
Description: Pelipper flies right to left across the screen. You have to dodge obstacles and collect speed boosts to achieve a high score.
Pokemon: PokPelipper
Controls: Use the mouse to go up/down/forward/back. [If you've ever played that helicopter flash game where you can't touch the the top and bottom, it's like that.]
Collect type-marks that are your own type for speed boosts. If you touch ones that you are weak to, you slow down.
Other Information:
-Clouds slow you down.
-Negative-Type Marks (electric) decrease your speed and/or points.
-Positive-Type Marks (water) increase your speed and/or points.

Name: Missing [Pokemon]
Type: Search
Description: You're shown a Pokemon that you must within a certain time limit.
Pokemon: Chatot, Hootoot, Fearow, Cleffa [there's heaps more for this]
Controls: Use the arrow keys on-screen to navigate to different areas and try finding the pokemon.
Click on shaking bushes to see if they are there. Shiny patches hold berries. The game ends when you find the asked for Pokemon.
Other Information:
-Time limit of 90 seconds.
-You have a map that becomes revealed as you go through the areas.
-Berry locations are marked with a red dot.
-Can occur on the ground or in the air. (Aesthetic and pokemon appearance changes only.)

Name: Wailord's Balls (lol. yes. I haven't played this yet, this is just what I can scrape about it)
Type: Juggling {?}
Description: You control Wailord who has to keep the Pokemon in the air so they can collect colour-coded balls that match their colouration..
Pokemon: Wailord, Pikachu, Meowth, Piplup, Buizel
Controls: ??? [I'm assuming it's just mouse movement?]
Other Information: If the Pokemon falls into the water they will be out of play for a while, which severely restricts your point-scoring ability.

Other Info That I Forgot But Just Remembered/Found
-No clock-cheat/timetravel when using the PGL/DW. It also affects Black City/White Forest apparently.
-After visiting DW once, the Interior Designer in Shippou City will offer to make furniture for your DW house. [House east of the Pokemon Centre

<b>Water Stone</b> - Surf to the lighthouse in the 5th gym's city (the ground one).
<b>Dusk Stone</b> - There's a Dusk Stone in the Cave where you encounter Kibagos and the blue one of this legendary Fighting-Dogs.
The cave is on Route 6, near to this electric cave. You need to go to the house on Route 6 and then behind it right to a river. Surf it along past the stones and you will find this cave. But one of your Pokemon needs to know Flash (TM 70).
<b>Fire Stone</b> - Go to the very right of the city (Hiun City), where the gateway to the bridge is, then go down the stairs and there's a scientist at the dock. Talk to him, and he lets you choose one of three stones.
The Fire Stone is the second option. <u>Another Method</u> - In the desert, there is a fire stone.
<b>Leaf Stone</b> -
<b>Moon Stone</b> - You get the Moon Stone from Aloe after helping get the head back.
<b>Hard Stone</b> - Upstairs in Shaga's house, a football player gives you a Hard Stone.
<b>Thunder Stone</b> - Go to the All Nine Shopping Mall on Route 9. An NPC on the top floor also gives you a Thunder Stone for free.

Oh dear god I lol'd.

Hells Malice · Apr 19, 2010

I actually think the 3D style looks pretty horrid. They should have just stuck to making the basic terrain look better.

HG might be my last pokemon game till they actually do something unique with the game. Only so many times I can use the same battle system and still be entertained.

Nah. They're releasing it for the DS.
It might have DSi/3DS exclusive features, though. Doesn't hurt to hope!

Not possible. It's been said that it's being made for the DS and DSi handhelds on the Japanese website.

Metroid is getting released like next month. Why would it be at E3? Unless the rumors of the push back for its release are true.

Nintendo haven't said anything about releasing Metroid next month?

Terenigma · Apr 23, 2010

I just woke up and read that it has been push back -

Although still not officially confirmed it seems that Wii games Metroid: Other M and Sin & Punishment: Successor Of The Skies have been delayed in the U.S.

Sin & Punishment has only been put back a few weeks and the UK date of May 7 so far appears unaffected.

Metroid though has suddenly gone from August 15 to "to be decided". Whether this is due to the so far lukewarm response to its press demos is unclear.

yobemal · Apr 23, 2010

All I heard for the date of other M is "This summer"... -.-
