I say RM2K/3 just because everyone uses XP. Now, with that being said, if you find XP more enjoyable, use that. I am using XP, even though I have RM2K/3. I just find XP easier, with the kit and all. I guess it comes down to whether you want to script or event more, since 2K is so event based for everything. Come to think of it, forget my vote. Go with whichever you enjoy more. That is what my team keeps telling me.

I enjoy them both the same.
But, think of it this way
RMXP = Earlier Release
RM2k3 = A gazillion years till release.

Player's Story:
You play as a 15 year old child who has helped injured Pokémon since you were 5. Since then you have become a huge fan of become. So, a couple weeks back you applied to become a member of Litania Town fan club, a small but cosy fan club. Today, a letter returns saying your denied membership. Your mom blames the lack of pokémon/experience. She recomends you find Prof. Ludson the local Professor and kindly ask for a Pokémon. When going to Ludson Labs a tall blonde trainer blocks the door claiming Professor. Ludson is not in and has gone to explore the forest for some reason. Out of curiosity you follow, once entering the forest you hear a loud sound of a Regice. Further exploration you see Prof. Ludson being hassled by a man. You pick a pokéball from a bag and fight this mysterious wanderer off. As a reward Prof. Ludson gives you the Pikachu you used to help rescue him. Then you leave for your journey into the Septi Region.

I forgot to make it so the Player faces the Rocket.
But I'll put it in soon.

Varion's battle sprite looks a little bit odd. It's too obviously mashed together from obvious things. Aside from that, your script (as in dialogue and such) needs a lot of work.
If you'd like a hand with that, I'd be happy to proofread it.

EDIT: For example:
Player's Story:
You play as a fifteen (avoid using numbers for ages. I know it's "easier", but it's professional to write the number out if it's under 100) year old child (fifteen years old isn't really a child) who has helped injured Pokémon since he was five ("you were" changes the tense and the point of view. Same deal with the numbers). Since then you have become a huge fan of Pokémon (not become). So, a couple of weeks back, you applied to become a member of Litania Town's fan club, a small but cosy group (saying fan club again here is too repetitive).
(new line) Today, a letter returned saying you were (you use "your" a lot, and incorrectly, too) denied membership. Your mom blames your ("the" lack makes it sound too general, like there's some region-wide lack of pokémon) lack of pokémon and (don't use slashes in this sort of writing. Looks very unprofessional) experience. She recomends you find Prof. Ludson, the local Pokémon Professor, and kindly ask for a Pokémon.
(new line) When going to Ludson Labs, a tall blonde trainer blocks the door claiming Professor Ludson is not in, and has gone to explore the forest for some reason. Out of curiosity you follow. Once you enter the forest, you hear the loud call of a Regice. After further exploration, you see Prof. Ludson being hassled by a man. You pick up Prof. Ludson's pokéball and fight the mysterious wanderer off. As a reward, Prof. Ludson gives you the Pikachu you used. You then leave for your journey around the Septi Region.

I like the name "Septi" region. It's a good name, that is.

Thanks.
As you may have guessed, despite english being my main language I suck at it.
You can help me with dialogue if you want, I'd appreciate it.

As for Varion, his sprite is a Splice atm. I suck at scratching them.
But I hope to change his sprite in the future.

As a user of Rm2k3, I would say use RMXP.

The reason i chose to use Rm2k3 is because I have years of experience with it. I tried RmXP, but it took way too long to do what I wanted it to do. To do anyhting as efficently as Rm2k3 you would have to learn ruby, it was more flexable, but would take me longer to do stuff.

If you're starting off fresh RMXP is probably a better choice. be prepared to learn Ruby though, or you won't get too far.

Hmm ... never heard of this 'Ruby'
I'll go look into it. :L

It's the rmXP scripting language.

Basically in my experience. Rmxp is far more flexable... if you know ruby. You can do more with Rm2k3's eventing interface than Rmxp's(without ruby)

Luckly, rmxp has starter kits, so you can use them.

It looks nice, though.

BatiJFG is the only one who needs credits.
I got these all from his Deviant Art.
So, all credits to him.

Good luck on the B/W overworlds xD
You good at spriting?

Did you use a template? Because the character moving up looks a bit like he's shaking his butt. As if he's one of them girls on the catwalk. I don't know if it looks like that in action, but it sure looks like it on the animation sheet xD

I used the main hero of B/W as a template.
And ... after inserting it ... ;-; he shakes his bum-bum.

Not much as of yet.
But I'm getting there. Once I have gotten to where I got after it crashed I will start to learn RGSS/Ruby.

Another update today ... damn.
