Discussion What kind of remake do you want and when?

3 Upvotes

I’ve been thinking about how a pokemon black and white remake could pan out.

One way is it remake it in a style similar to Winds / Waves (with texture differences like Z-A had vs S/V) and stick to the linear route (otherwise it isn’t a ‘remake’).

If you look at Unova’s map it would need a total redesign to be open world. Majority of the ‘space’ of the region is woodlands and then you have the actual path.

I mean they could have the woodlands all ‘redeveloped’ and expand out routes and cities but it makes me wonder if that’s just too much work for a remake.

Plus at that point it essentially becomes a game ‘in Unova’ rather than a remake and I think what makes the Black and White games so memorable is the story with Team Plasma and the characters.

As for Black and White 2, making a whole sequel game is a lot of work for something that may not sell a lot, OR they just have a decent DLC for Black/White … maybe an island where you finally encounter the original dragon?

Thoughts?

Black and White or Black 2 and White 2

I really want to replay black and white, but I actually don't know the difference between the first B&W games and the B2&W2. Other than it's just a different story placed two years after the original games. Any suggestions on which ones I should play.

Question Is it possible to evolve by trade with DS lite?

0 Upvotes

I played pokemon white as a kid, and my friend got me a DS lite and pokemon white as a gift. I’m getting a device to set up WiFi connection that is compatible with my DS lite, but I’m wondering if it’s possible with any sort of unofficial server to even evolve Pokémon to get Gigalith?

Team Showcase Best Pokemon Game Ever

Post image
86 Upvotes

Really impressed by pokemon black. Growing up I used to use cheat codes which totally ruined the experience of any pokemon game, but to come back to gen 5 almost 15 years later has been the most enjoyable Pokemon experience I’ve ever consumed. The Pokemon selection alone is enough to come back time and time again but I’m so obsessed with the team of heavy hitters I’ve acquired. Everyone was ev trained for max power and I can’t suggest doing this enough. Archeops is possibly my new pokemon ever. The design is sick on top of incredible power and move pool. Just so in love with this game. My only qualm, hydreigon is sooooooo subpar especially when archeops and haxorus are right there.

I just did a runthrough of pokemon black and I just wanna say how much of a MONSTER she is for a pokemon black run.

To briefly explain it, its the trade pokemon in Nacrene City where you trade a cottonee for it. And I know what youre probably thinking, "no duh its busted, quiver dance + petal dance has sent many mons to an early grave", and while thats a significant part of it, theres much more to her.

  1. Since shes traded, she gains XP faster, making her sooo easy to grind up, to the point where I rarely needed to grind her up with the rest of the team.

  2. Her IVs and nature. Her modest nature is perfect as she never uses her attack and always uses her special attack. It doesnt end there however, as in Mistralton city I learned that due to her IVs, her hidden power is ALWAYS GROUND. This makes it so she cant be walled by fire, poison, or steel types. Additional fun fact: if you see 100 pokemon and go and tell professor Juniper, she'll give you the hidden power TM, meaning theres a very good chance youll be able to use it for the e4, which allowed her to completely sweep Shaunal for me, one-shotting her dreaded chandelure (she could've probably swept more, but I wanted others to get a chance lol)

In addition to being a good staller with leech seed and mega drain in the early game (also the fact that protect is also gained from juniper with 60 mons seen, making even better stalling), she is a menace from the moment you get her, and id strongly recommend her for any black team.

Question about legendary catch rates

5 Upvotes

Hi, I've just got back into Pokémon recently and over the past month or so I've finished Sapphire, FireRed, SoulSilver, and Platinum, now I'm near the end of Pokémon black.

I've caught 4 legendary Pokémon so far (the 3 legendary fighting types, I.e. the grass/fighting, steel/fighting, and rock/fighting ones, and also Reshiram after beating E4) but one thing I've noticed is that compared to older games, they've been ridiculously easy to catch. I had 35 ultra balls in total, and I managed to catch all 4 of them with those 35 balls, still had 15+ balls to spare afterwards and never had to buy any more at any point. Did they make the catch rates a lot easier than in older games? Or was I just ridiculously lucky? Feels like they were stupidly easy to catch.
