    I got both versions, with the intent that I would keep one of them as it is and replay the other one whenever I want, as well as getting all the version exclusives over to the other. So, I started White with Snivy and picked Oshawott when I picked up Black, and I'm going to try to use different teams. I used Snivy, Lilipup, Deino, Panpour, and Litwick on White...so as long as I don't use any of those on Black, I'll be happy. (:

    Yeah, I got both, White on 4th March and Black not too long ago.

    I'd play it through kinda different analysing the storyline in different ways and I'd choose a different starter so overall I have all three.

    Got Black on March 6th, but it corrupted so I bought White and I'll play through Black later. I transfered starters from it to White.

    I have White and I´m enjoying it. I´d definitly get Black aswell if it wasn´t for my lack of cash. ><
    I chose Tepig as my starter. I probablly wouldn´t take him a second time. And I THINK I´d preffer Snivy over Oschawott just because Osch has been a pain in my neck throuout the game. As for playing it differentlly...probablly would just run it with 1 main Poké instead of training an entire in-game team.

    Just a Quick Note Here:
    If you already have both games, please discuss what you would plan on doing for a third game! This is just so we don't have side topics that are already being discussed in our Black or White thread. Otherwise, if you only purchased one of the two, you may further discuss what you would have done in the opposite game.

    I used a different starter and some different Pokemon. I really only got the two versions so that I could trade version exclusives and whatnot... that and one was Japanese and the other American. I wanted one that I could at least understand the language lol.

    I got Black, so if I had also White, I would use it for challenges, so I don't have to use ROMs, which I hate :D But first, I would play it with uncommon Pokès, like Beeheyem, Garbodor and stuff like that, then I would trade to my Black the exclusive Legendaries (Zekrom and Thundurus). Then I'll start with challenges.

    What would you do?

    Would you try and run it like a challenge?

    Would you pick a different starter?

    Would you play it through the same way?

    I plan on getting Black soon (already have White)

    I'm going to run some sort of challenge, not sure which one yet.

    I'm definitely going to pick a different starter, will pick Snivy this time, picked Oshawott last time.

    I wouldn't be playing through the same way as I'll be doing some sort of challenge.

    I'm getting it more for the version exclusive stuff too, and I want to have a game where I can restart and play over and over, I'll keep White as a permanent save.

    Do the same thing as I did in black.
    Would you try and run it like a challenge?
    Not really, But I might do that.
    Would you pick a different starter?
    I might pick tepig than oshawatt in black, because snivy is lame to pick.

    Would you play it through the same way?
    That's a good question, Maybe but I might change my battle team.

    I finished the game on White but now I'm doing it on Black.

    So far yes I have been playing differently, with a different starter and I'm much happier with my team.

    What would you do?
    I would just play the same first run as my White, then I'll just use it as storage for my Pokemon.

    Would you try and run it like a challenge?
    If there are some good challenges out there, I'd go for it. I'm always looking for a good challenge.

    Would you pick a different starter?
    Oshawott is my starter in White. So, I will choose Snivy for my other game.

    Would you play it through the same wa
    y?
    It's possible that I may not get the same Pokemon as White. I may end up getting different kinds.

    After I beat White, I bought Black.
    What would you do?
    In Black I'm trying to beat the game with a different team (traded over for fast exp)

    Would you try and run it like a challenge?
    Nope.

    Would you pick a different starter?
    I picked Snivy instead of Oshawott. Hate Tepig.

    Would you play it through the same way?
    Yeah except I wanna level up more and stuff before the E4 which will be easy to do considering a few of the Pokemon are traded over from my White.
