In that last comic, if he's battling another trainer, why would it come down to throwing a pokeball?

I DEMAND COMICS THAT ARE MORE AWARE OF THE GAME THEY ARE PARODYING!

I can't figure out how it works, it just spends forever "searching" for someone to trade with.
Don't request a specific type of trainer. The game will search for the nature they chose and it seems that most people aren't aware of this and thus haven't changed their natures from the default.

@comic, I think it's meant to imply that is his last pokemon in that pokeball. PA sucks anyways so whatever.

Permission to prove you wrong? They have one that I absolutely love.

The GTS is compatable with both Gen IV and Gen V, yeah? So in theory I could put a pokemon up in HeartGold and trade it to White?

Nooo. They use different servers. How else could someone put up a Charmander and request for a Tepig? I highly doubt the 4th Gen games would filter out THOSE kind of results. Same going for putting up Origin Forme Giratina, which can't be seen in DP, let alone traded in 4th Gen GTS.

That is quite interesting, and to be expected since this is one of the more detailed stories Gamefreak has done with Pokemon.

Well to be fair 5th gen's story excels where no other story of Pokemon has.

Forreal.

I really like this gen's story, it's a lot more involving than previous gens, and at last actually acknowledges the obvious point that Pokémon battling can be nothing but glorified cockfighting.

It kept the same formula but tweaked it and so Black really didn't feel formulaic or typical at all, which is great.

The only games that really top this for story are Colosseum and XD. Man I wish they continued making home console games, those were so good.

Edit: And by that I mean actual adventure games, not Stadium style games. Although Stadium itself would be cool, they literally fragmented it into different parts like Pokémon Ranch/Box and PBR, and the worst being you can't save pokémon from old games and transfer to new. >.>

The Mt. Battle theme was also really epic.

Man, every track in Colosseum was amazing.

I dunno for now Black's music hasn't really gripped me yet.

When do you guys think we'll get the next in the Colosseum line? PBR was a LONG time ago and it didn't even support HG/SS. Would be nice if they hooked us up with something new for the Wii that supports B/W.

There is something in the pipelines supposedly, there is definitely a new Wii Pokémon project.

Sadly it's not going to be adventure, pretty sure it's just PBR 2.0

Still making your own trainer was real fun, I wish you could do that in future games, a custom trainer that is. =D

Also they could feasibly make a 3D pokémon game for 3DS (as in more axes, not the display). I mean it can pump out better visuals than Wii and its flashcarts probably have huge levels of storage, moreso than a GC disk I'd say.

This thread makes me want to replay Collosseum..

Edit: PBR supported HS/SS it just didn't show the trainer if you battled that way.

If you're going to AR to change it, you might as well SAV a new one. :/

I have a friend doing the same thing. Dunno if he got it yet or not, but when I last heard he was at 800+ SRs after 5 hours or so. It's been a few more days now...

SRing legendaries takes absolutely ages.

Funny though, I got a shiny Roggenrola like 2 hours into the adventure. I **** a brick then caught it.

This was me a few days ago but with almost everything inverted(Pansage/Archen/Tepig/Tornadus/Reshiram)
I went on an evolving/GTS spree, so the only Pokemon aside from the legendaries I need is Vullaby/Mandibuzz.

Anyway, anybody do the DW Eeveelutions event? I wound up getting Jolteon.

been doing battle subway runs... trying to find really effective things to do... the cpu's are smarter with u-turn/switching now so u can't just wall everything, plus a hundred more options makes this a much harder in game challenge than gen iv battle tower

i got this though

currently running lum machamp, sash cloyster, __________

sifting through my pokemon for a 3rd member. hydreigon and nidoqueen have been decent, but im sure i can come up with something even better

i know offense is not that great in this type of thing but... thats just how i play hahah

are there pokemon that can both sleep + dragon tail? heheh
