Yay! The wait is over.... For Japan.

Now I have to wait until it's released in the U.S. before I can actually play... Come on Fall! Hurry up and get here already!

Brb, spazzing all at all of the new info. =P

In all seriousness, I'll make some comments. That World Tournament roster is so freaking huge, and that's just great. It's nice to see some of my favorite gym leaders make a return. Also, Iris being the champion isn't really that all surprising to me. Also... I'm a little disappointed by the new Unova dex, I was hoping for a tad more variety.

Since content are now being released, does anyone know if BW2 can trade between the original BW near the beginning of the game? I have a couple of eggs that I want to trade over when I eventually get an English copy.

Edit: Nevermind my complaint about the new Unova dex, I didn't realize that it was incomplete before. I much like the variety now.

As soon as you get the C-Gear.

Wonderful. Thank you for the answer.

Aw, what happened to Alder? I liked him! D:

And we already had a dragon type champion, aka Lance. Iris is cool, but her as champion is boring. :/

Other than this, the games just keep sounding awesomer.

EDIT: Oh, Druddigon and Wallace are misspelled. :P

You get to battle Alder in his hometown.

Alder is still in the game. You battle him at his house in an early town, I think..

I do kind of wish they'd given her a different signature Pokemon. It doesn't make much sense for the champion to share their most powerful Pokemon with a gym leader. They should have given her Dragonite or something.

That was a mistranslation. You battle some random kids he's gathered at his house.

Ah, that makes a lot more sense. Thank you.

Is he still battled at some point though? I remember reading that his team was leaked, so that means that he must be battled somewhere.

Judging by the levels, he's battled post-game.

I meant where is he as CHAMPION. I wanted him to stay champion. I had already expected him to still appear in the game and be able to be battled.

Nah, I would have given her a Garchomp. It's way cooler than that dumb orange Barney, imo.

Looks like Iris has a formidable team. It's Lance 2.0!

I like that dumb orange Barney. <_<

And screw Garchomp, it's too powerful and annoying, both in and out of competitive play. Battling Cynthia in Diamond was a pain enough as it was, and I hardly want to go through that again. Frankly, Iris shouldn't have either. Dragonite should be Lance's signature Pokemon, and Garchomp Cynthia's.

Well, I hate Dragonite and I think it looks stupid. And I only really found Cynthia hard in D/P. In Platinum, she wasn't too hard or too easy. I liked that kind of challenge and Drayden was a joke in Black. Never fought Iris, but her team is basically the same with only different genders, so she would've been just as easy if I used a female Fraxure instead of a male one. My Fraxure OHKO'd all three of Drayden's Pokemon in a row thanks to Rivalry. They never got to attack a single time.

Iris should have been given: Garchomp, Flygon, Haxorus, Salamence, Druddigon, and Hydreigon, with Haxorus at the highest level. Haxorus is the main dragon type she used as a Gym Leader, so yeah.
