Which pokemon do you plan to get?

So I got home from the store a few hours ago ad started playing the game.

2 hours in, I can say I'm enjoying it a lot more than the original B/W titles. Beat the first gym and all my Pokémon are between level 11-13. I have the level 15 Pokémon but I'm not using it until all my other Pokémon are that level as well. It's that legendary event Pokémon going on currently.

But yeah, it's a cool game. I still do find difficulty higher than normal, but I think it's because I used to just raise my main Pokémon rather than an entire party. (Ie: spending more time grinding than usual)
 
Are all the Breeders in this game glitched?
Seriously, I beat them, go heal my Pokemon, come back and they wanna fight again. This only happens with the breeders.

Yeah I hated B/W, but with this, it's actually pretty fun.
 
I found that Pokémon that evolve via max Happiness don't take that much time to evolve; My Riolu evolved at Lv. 19, while my Swadloon evolved at Lv. 21 (Could probably have evolved earlier if Sewaddle didn't evolve at Lv. 20.)

It is not a glitch.
So they are basically the VS Seekers of this game?

I guess so.
I wish they'd just have included VS. Seeker in the game instead of doing this.
Or maybe all trainers could be rematch-able by speaking to them.

Anyone got some advice on Pokémon to catch?
In the Japanese play-through I had a lot of trouble later on. And I would like to avoid that =/

BTW I play in challenge mode.

If you catch a Riolu and evolve it into a Lucario, he can pretty much solo the Pokemon league :s

I would like to build up a full team. Also Lucario cannot solo everything and besides that's just boring using one pokémon.
are you kidding me? i have finished the original black with only the starter pokemon on the first run (oshawoot)

Clearly you are underestimating Lucario. He can carry throughout the whole game. But yea, he made it pretty boring so I won't bother catching him this playthrough.
 
Magnemite and Riolu are my favorite Pokemon in my party so far.
It's kinda sad that the starters all suck..

Yeah. Deposited my starter as soon as I was able to catch something different.

Also really stupid that there's no vs. seeker. Why would they remove a good feature? Also the lack of Pokemon Following you is a minor but missed feature. Oh well, still good so far.

I'm still going to keep my starter around anyway. I've never just left it in a box and I don't see why to stop such a nice tradition. :3

Hey, do any of you know a good HM slave for before the third gym?
Well, since you don't use your starter... Samurott makes the perfect HM slave. You can try Watchog as well, which only knows cut and surf.

To be honest, you won't need much HM slaves in this game. You will only need TWO (three if you're playing White 2), and that is near the end of the game.

Some good HM pokemon to use later on would be Druddigon, Gyarados (I have no idea if you can get it) and Axew, but Axew is kinda wasteful as a HM slave since it can be trained and evolved into a kick ass Haxorus.

I won't need HMs?
I was going to use my starter for surf, but cut is just a wasted move.
 
I was surprised, just for the hell of it. I put my Japanese Black 2 into my 3DS and wanted to see if I could send things from the English Dream Radar to the Japanese Black 2, it worked surprisingly, despite the region lock on the 3DS. So, the Munna and Revive I had both got sent to the Japanese game and Munna became Japanese.

Dream Radar region free I guess.
