    I do plan to one day get white as well but that will be the distent future I believe,and I like fighting trainers more then wild pokemon and I can do that anywhere else in that game pretty much.

    White. At first I was thinking of getting Black until I heard how the legendaries were 'switched' around. I find Zekrom more appealing then Reshiram(I've probably spelled that wrong). Black & blue is one of my favorite color schemes. Also, once I had looked up the exclusives for both versions...I was sold on White. Poochyena & Rufflet? Yess. Already preordered White. Of course I'll get Black eventually & whatever third version they'll make.

    Well I'll eventually be getting all three, when I have the money and when the third installment releases, and therefore I voted "All Three".

    However, I'm starting with White as it has the best pokemon, and I like the nature vs. industry type style that the two games hold, and I'm more a nature guy myself. Also Zekrom is awesome, and the version exclusive pokemon are just generally better in White. :]

    I was originally going to go with Black because I prefer Reshiram and like the color black over white. However, once I learned that Rufflet/Braviary were exclusive to White, I had to switch. Normally I choose my game based on the preferred legendary, but this time I picked because I simply adore Braviary and need a flying type for my team. In all the other generations I've gone with the starting bird (Pidgey, Taillow, Starly), but the Pidove line...sorry, just can't do it. Unfezant just looks...strange to me. Zekrom has grown on me since then, and the only time I really use legendaries anyway is when I'm battling with my friends casually.

    Well, since the release of the US version I can now post here, I did get the JPN versions both Black and White, I finished both of those, but since I do not understand Japanese, I did again get both the Black and White versions today, I started playing White 1st and have enjoyed it all day long and hope to enjoy Black just as well!! :)

    Planning on getting a hard copy of both of them. Yep, since my sister is going on vacation to California, I'll just ask her to get them for me, since they are going to be cheaper. I'm probably going to save around $20, which is awesome. Can't wait, stoked fo sure.

    I wouldn't really matter what I get so I would get both.I think Zekrom is Stronger by its stats if you look at seriibii website about zekrom, But the sad thing is I can only get one game why? because in my country it cost $95.00 for one game which sucks :(.

    White. And unless you watch a totally unrelated magical girl anime you might not understand my reasoning (then again, you could look at my bishie list and probably find out why.

    Yeah, my reason has absolutely nothing to do with the actual Pokemon or content in the game.

    well, that and the fact that my brother wants Black
