It Draws Ever Closer

, 1st October 2012 at 12:45 AM (152 Views)

Pokemon White 2 and Pokemon Black 2 are inching closer and closer to their american release date. I have to admit to cheating and watching videos of people playing this game in a language I don't even read. Hopefully I didn't spoil too much for myself, but I just couldn't help myself either. These are the first two Pokemon games that didn't change their color, they simply slapped a two on the end of it.

I can't say I'm against that though. From the looks of it and what I know of it, it's a true sequel to the last games. I'm looking forward to playing it out. I think the real question on everyone's mind is "Do I get Black 2 or do I get White 2?" Honestly, I know of a friend who was so indecisive that she pre-ordered both. I have no such money to throw around. So it comes down to choosing only one. Many of the people I know want to get Black 2.

However, I think I'll end up getting White 2. There are several reasons why I've decided on this. I got Black last time, so I wouldn't mind it being a different color. In Black, Reshiram was on the cover. White 2 has White Kyurem on the cover. I like having that similarity. Honestly with so many people I know wanting to get Black 2, that drives me to want White 2 even more. I like being the oddball and doing things a little different.

Just a little longer and it'll be back to catching Pokemon on a new game and comparing notes with my fellow Pokemon masters. I've even got a few Pokemon I bred in Black to send off to the next game to raise.

I'm getting White 2 as well :3.
But I won't be able to play it on my 3DS. It just-so-happened to get damaged right before the release of BW2....

I'm also getting White 2.

Why? Because Reshiram kicks ass.

Also, there is a lot more Pokémon I want in W2 compared to B2, like Lilligant VS Whimsicott.

I got White 2, just because I got White last time around. I'll probably end up getting both.

I want White 2 because of Reshiram and White Kyurem, but I got Black for Reshiram as well. So I'm getting Black 2 just to give Zekrom/Black Kyurem a chance.

I'm getting both, but Black 2 will be my main because I played Black.

I'll probably nuzlocke White 2 in Challenge Mode.

I have to say I like Reshiram over Zekrom as well. Not that I dislike Zekrom, but I happen to fancy the fire dragon just a little more. I wish I could afford both, but as it is I'll be lucky enough to get one this month. Maybe later on down the line I can get Black 2. But it is good to hear there are others that are going after White 2 as well!

@The Togekiss, that sucks that your 3DS was damanged. I had a problem like that earlier this year. Somehow my DSi was left outside on the ground. It must have fallen out of the vehicle when I parked and got out. I found it sometime later after it had already rained and it no longer worked. I had to save for awhile to get a new one. I was just glad the game in it still worked.

@UnovaCastaway, I was never really fond of nuzlockes. I've never done one myself, but plenty of my friends do. I just enjoy catching and training my favorite Pokemon. However, it is interesting to hear them talk about it.

I've never tried a nuzlocke myself, so I'll be treading into uncharted waters for that one.

@UnovaCastaway, I wish you luck treading that territory. I don't think I could ever commit myself to doing one.
