Pokemon B/W only having new Pokemon in the main story

[Delta517]

I like this decision. It makes people focus more on the new ones instead of just importing the old ones.

...This is bad...and I'm almost positive that you can't trade over your Pokemon from a previous generation since the data isn't in the games. If they don't give you access to the other Pokemon it won't be possible to trade over the Pokemon. Also IIRC they mentioned it's done by Pal Park now so that means no Pokemon until the game is over. If the Pokemon designs didn't look like crap then I wouldn't mind it, but they're just awful.

Actually, you CAN trade from previous games, through a device called the PokeShifter. Go to Serebii.

Yeah but it doesn't say that it's available during the story, it could be like Pal Park which means they would only be available post-game, which makes sense if they don't want people to have any of the previous 493 Pokemon until post-game.

I always liked the 1st and 2nd generation the most, but I think a new game with the hole story based on new pokemons is a good idea, but I will miss my Ampharos.

Pokemon Emerald was my game that I really trained since I started it. DP came and I cheated. If there'll be no PokeSav for BW, I'll be happy to train fresh for this era.

This is why I liked Gen 1. There were just those Pokemon.

This is the only thing I didn't like about Gen 2. There were a TON of Gen 1 Pokemon all over Johto, and not many Pokemon introduced in Gen 2.

that's okay for me .
hehe , that's what I was looking for , a whole new game .

 

[monkat]

Wait. Something doesn't make sense. They accidentally leaked a pokémon that looked exactly like an evolution of luvdisc. Unless they're making another useless heart-shaped fish, something's wrong.

 

[Clydefrosch]

whats so weird about this? it will only appear on later routes or in a trainer battle (like milotic in ruby and saphire)

and maybe they will put back the breeder till post story too



though, im actually a little worried about an absence off new eevee types...


also, I like the idea aswell, though types are pretty much clear for many pokemon, there will be those moments where you feel like back in the first gen, when all you ever used against everything was ember (for at least 3 gens, i mainly used fire attacks against ghastly and its evolutions, as well as against smogon and smogmogs)



also, team of only new pokemon! i actually wont be looking at serebiis pokedex (which will be there in mere hours) until i played this myself and I'll be using crap like the first time, beedrills and geodudes xD


finally, i hope there will be at least 150 new pokemon...

Cool stuff, I like this.
A whole new world with a whole new adventure with whole new Pokemon, with everyone using new different teams instead of the same ones just to win online... THUMBS UP FOR NINTENDO!!

This.
To me, the main problem has only been a kind of stagnation. With this, that stillness shall be dismissed, hopefully for good.

Cool, a better adventure.

Wait, no Cyndaquil from the very beginning?

Yeah! Can't wait for this, new 151 pokemons and no more freaking annoying zubats in caves. =]
Hopefully some of the new pokemon are competitive playable.
