Well, let's see. Yesterday I played my Japanese White version for the first time in a long while. I had just found out that the Battle Subway had a mode where you could actually battle trainers who used the first 493 Pokemon, so I went ahead and got my streak up to 21 battles using my EV-trained Voltros, Haxorus, and Hydreigon.

I've also been mindless walking around the region admiring the graphics, lol. I love the Autumn season. Black and White really are beautiful games.

Started around 30 mins ago, picked Teh Pig (also known as Tepig) and went out into the first route. Caught myself a Lillipup, trained it a little, and then went to the first town. Explored, then talked to the hot Professor Juniper. Got my Pokemon healed...


...and found out that I caught the Pokerus! First time ever on any of my playthroughs. At this rate, I'll be getting my first shiny soon.

I've just started out, been playing for about an hour or so now, currently in Route 2!

I chose Ochawott at the start and so far have caught a Patrat which I don't plan on using, a Lillipup and a Purrloin! :)

I liked how you meet Ghetsis (sp?) right at the start so it seems like you're chasing him throughout the game as well as trying to get to the pokemon league.

Also I love how when you start a new game and you get about 50 exp points and it seems like a lot >.<

Purrloin seems to be pretty weak to start off with, struggling to beat anything really, love visiting the poke centre after every battle :|

Justarrived in Striaton City, not too confident about the upcoming gym battle, not sure if Purrloin and Lillipup will be able to help Oshawott overcome the first gym.

Just received Pansear from Dreamyard :D

Just entered the first Gym, like the look of it... and I just received some Fresh Water :D

My first gym battle of Gen V is against Cilan and she sends out a Lvl 12 Lillipup, I start out with a Lvl 11 Purrloin, also noticed she's only got two pokemon which is slightly pleasing :)

Lillipup manages to make my Purrloin faint so I decide to bring out Oshawott! Water Gun FTW :D

Cilan brings out a level 14 Pansage, good thing I went to dreamyard :) it took down my Oshawott with two Vine Whip's but I managed to get in two tail whips before. I bring out my level 10 Pansear, and Incinerate does minimal damage :| Pansage uses Vine Whip and takes 7 out of 30 HP, I should go on to win this battle now.... WOOP WOOP :)

With 6 HP left Pansear uses Incinerate to make Pansage faint! :) Gym badge number 1 after about 2 hours of play!

Just got back from town with my copy of Black, and fired it up for about half an hour.
I'm sitting in Accumula Town right now, trying to catch myself a Purrloin.

As for the starter, I HAD to pick Smugleaf ;3.

I've been playing since 10.30 am and had an hours break or so, going fairly slowly though, just got the little girls pokemon back and heading down the route that was blocked. Got lucky and started with a female Snivy, currently in my possession is Servine, Woobat, Panpour and Drillbur as my 'using' pokemon, with a Purrloin for cut and a Lillipup for Pick Up =] will made some changes when i can, gonna replace Drillbur with Sandile i think

My White arrived today.

Started the game setup my character, and opened the box to pick my starter...two hours later and I still haven't been able to pick. I haven't had this much trouble choosing my starter since my struggle between Bulbasaur and Squirtle in the original Red version.

This is were I am so far:

Just defeated 4th gym, and had the first encounter with Alder. Apparently Cheren only wants to become the Champion, and doesn't want to do anything else :S But then Alder tells him it is also very important to love Pokémon. He asks 2 little kids if they would like to have a double battle and you and Cheren battle those Preschoolers. Afterwards, he'll say that the Pokémon enjoyed the battle. He also says it is his job to make people love Pokémon. And I've also caught Victini, Zorua and Zoroark.

Team:
Charger lvl. 29 (Zebstrika)
Smugster lvl. 30 (Servine)
Da Gangsta lvl. 29 (Scraggy)

Since my last post quite a bit has happened! I'm really enjoying this game :)

After meeting Prof Fennel I received cut and went onto Dreamyard and battled off a couple of Team Plasma Grunts, after this I proceeded to catch myself a Munna and an Audino, who I've been quite curious about during the build up of this game! At this point my team was gaining a bit of shape Oshawott, Lillipup, Purrloin, Sansear, Munna and Audino. I moved onto Route 3 where I discovered the Daycare centre and had a few battles!

Further down the road I bumped into Cheren and fended him off with relative ease, I'm now about to enter the cave to go and look for a young girls pokemon who Team Plasma appear to have stolen!

Before I went in I noticed some grass outside, walked around a bit and managed to catch myself a Pidove and a Blitzle :) So I've shuffled my team around a bit and am ready to enter the first cave in Pokemon White :)

Team: Pidove, Blitzle, Sansear, Lillipup, Audino, Oshawott

Just over 4 hours of play, seen 13 pokemon caught 9 and I have 1 Gym Badge!

Well so far I've ordered my European version of the game seeing as the Japanese Rom I was playing was too complicated.

Anyway Amazon Guaranteed delivery before 1pm Tomorrow so if it doesn't come I'll be out on the hunt :P
