Pokemon!

[mangaluva]

I can't decide if I want White or Black...

I'm wondering about Yanappu/Yanakki, Boappu/Boakki, Hiyappu/Hiyakki though. Three pokemon, identical in stats, similar in appearance and the only real difference is the type? What's that about?

Speak no Evil (Grass), Hear no Evil (Fire), See no Evil (Water).  You're given the one weak to your starter around the first gym to help fight against the first gym's leader, who uses the monkey strong against your starter.  Also humorously enough, their Dream World versions get the starter abilities.

Also, holy freaking hell.  Charizard will finally be usable!  Dream World abilities are freaking nuts.  Solar Polar (1.5x SpA boost in the sun), plus the innate fire boost from sun... Charizard's a beast.  Venusaur gets Chlorophyll, so he'll be nuts too.  But ZMONG NINETAILS!  DROUGHT!  Dream World Ninetails is going to get banned from standard competitive battling.  Dragonite gets an as of yet untranslated ability, so that's good since anything not outright detrimental is better than Inner Focus.  Dream World Politoed will be banned too with his Drizzle.  Mother effing Dream World Blaziken gets the same ability as Ninjask!  NUTSO.  Scrappy Swellow will be great (attack that Ghost!).  Sharpedo gets Speed Boost too.  Poison Heal Gliscor will be a better wall than ever. 

Those are the truly noteworthy ones.  Rest are either meh, not super amazing but still usable alternatives, or get an as of yet untranslated ability.

Me neither. D:

That's one of the reasons why I'm waiting for more information to come out.  Granted, that's mostly to decide if I want to import, and if so which one, but still.  If you're talking about non-Japanese versions, you'll have plenty of time to look at provided info.

I'll probably get Black, but I won't decide completely til we get more info on the differences in the versions.

Ah, that's pretty cool, actually!

I'll wait for the US versions. Probably even longer than that, since I won't have money for such frivolity in the forseeable future.

[Vylash]

yeah, there's plenty of time before a US release, that'll give me time to see all of the version exclusives

[kentasaiba]

Besides Tsutaja the only acetable line

YES! i hate inner focus so much, i'd rather have shed skin or natural cure

[Shin101]

I'll probably wait for the Black+White version. Maybe "Gray"?

[Vylash]

yeah, i tend to feel like an idiot when the expansion game comes out, because it always makes the previous 2 look like crap

Exactly. A bad habit of Pokemon games since the old times

Which makes me wonder why people actually buys the "first two" :/
Although I am in no position to say that because I do that too XD;;

[Vylash]

thanks to a chansey swarm, and a particularly annoying chansey that broke out of 10 ultra balls and 15 dusk balls, i now have a lucky egg!

So... no one will be interesed in it, but here are my Black and White teams:
