Topic: Pokemon Black and White versions get released in the US today!

[Gecko]

Who else is getting the new Pokemon? I can't wait! My friends and I are all Pokemon fans since we were 6 or 7 with Red and Blue, and have been waiting for Black and White since they were announced. They're each supposed to have areas unique to each game unlike the rest of the generations of Pokemon. White version(The one I'm getting first) features a more wildlife oriented world similar to Johto, and Black is all about the big cities. Plus, this one is practically(for all intents and purposes) a reboot for Pokemon, as only around 150 pokemon will be in the game, and they're all new. The older pokemon  aren't in the game until you unlock the "Dream World" after beating the game.

We actually had a Pokemon release party last night, featuring mixed drinks to fit the theme of each starter pokemon(complete with food dye to distinguish grass, fire and water!). Then we played the N64 Pokemon games (Stadium, Snap, etc.) while listening to my copy of 2 B A Master on tape. It was great!

I forgot!
However, I will go tomorrow.
Hopefully they'll let me grab that pokemon they've got available at Gamestop.

Agreed 100%

It gives me that awesome feeling like with Red and Blue back in the day because I have no idea what any of the pokemon are until I see them. Nothing is familiar about them, and they're actually mostly really cool. Also the locations in the game are just amazing!

Well, I beat all the trainers in the game, but I'm bored. (yes, including the second run of the elite four and champion)

Should I start over with tepig this time? (I choose osowott).

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

I chose the one you didn't mention (Snivy).... and I'm GLAD!  On his third evolution, he looks like a Vampire Snake.
Ha ha!  Serpirior.

And I'm past Badge#8 (Victory Road) on the first run.

Yeah I kinda destroyed the game in under a week XD....I kinda wish I didn't though :/. I am probably gunna get black on my flashcard though so it's all good, besides I love the pokemon I currently have and finding a lv.50 Pupitar/lv.55 Metang in the wild is just too awesome. We should battle sometime! I'll post my friend code if anyone is ever willing
