5th Gen Can you follow White 2/Black 2 without White/Black?

Hey guys so I actually have a question here and it's as follows I've been wanting to start one or the other of these games but white 2 looks a lot more interesting than White in my opinion but would I still be able to follow the story if I skipped white and went straight to white 2??

I suppose you could, yes! It doesn't make much references to Black and White, as far as I'm concerned, so regardless if you've played them or not, pretty much anybody is able to jump in.

Thank you! I've been debating for awhile what to do but Black and white 2 both look better than the originals in my opinion!

Yeah, they're great. I personally haven't liked them much, though; since I've already played original BW, they sort of felt like some rehash to me. If you haven't, then I'm sure you won't be experiencing the same.

There will be some confusion as to who certain characters are and certain events that get referenced, but otherwise it stands perfectly fine on its own!
