NPC General Discussion + Cameos
 
Cameos
Do you expect there to be some characters from the previous games appearing in B&W? Is there any people you'd like to see appear in the new games in gen V style?

If you remember back to D/P/P there were a few, namely Jasmine from the Steel type gym in Johto, she had been standing on the beach on your way to the Pokemon League. You also met Steven as well as others in HG/SS, Steven being from the Hoenn region in generation 3. Of course who could forget Team Rocket and Red appearing in the Johto region.

I expect that there may be some mention of the past regions and some of the people we seen within those regions, but I doubt there will be any big appearances. Personally I'd like to see Cynthia again, I felt she was quite a dark NPC in Platinum and I'd like to hear more of her backstory perhaps, I think that B&W would be a likely place for her to appear once again.

Red and Gold xD having their battle on a new snowy mountain with epic music..

and then white comes and PARTYPOOPS

dooxer May 24th, 2010 1:11 PM

yeeea someone called white would not be as cool... can't actually think of a name thou, and we do need someone like that.

Timbjerr May 24th, 2010 1:47 PM

It's been said before, but the foreign Rocket member you fight in Kanto in GSCHGSS would seem a logical choice. On a more humorous choice, we can see Archie and Maxie playing chess and arguing with eachother in a city park or something. XD

Bloothump May 24th, 2010 2:16 PM

I'm not too fond of any past npcs, but if any, I'd like to see Steven somewhere.

Mew396 May 24th, 2010 2:20 PM

One of the Hoenn gym leaders or frontier brains is what I would want to see in B&W. If I had to pick one I would pick Flannery.

Hypno May 24th, 2010 2:28 PM

I would like to see Brock, Red or Blue, like they help you out to get across a cave or something like in D/P/Pt.

I actually like your idea here. I battled that Rocket Member in Kanto recently in SoulSilver and he stressed the idea he was from a faraway place. So, if this could be the Isshu region and he makes a cameo as either part of the new evil organization(s) or just as simple cameo randomly would be pretty cool to see.

If I were to see Archie and Maxie appear playing chess in a park and arguing over it, I would probably bust out laughing.

I favor your idea as well; more so a Hoenn Frontier Brain making a cameo over another gym leader. I think that would be a good twist to it, especially if it was Brandon to make the cameo.

I think that they should include red, gold/ethan, Blue, And silver all as battles at the top of 4 serprate mountains it would be so coo.l

Ehehehehhe



NO.


Maybe perhaps as minor cameos, such as an event where something awkwerd happens and the main charecter of one game just looks at you in utter disgust and moves on out of screen.

Red was a neccecesity becuase he is the boy we saw shrink into that sprite when we first played on that grey brick of a system.

A Pixy May 24th, 2010 7:18 PM

I don't know why, but I want to square off against Brendan the most.

Swampert
Shiftry
Aggron
Rhyperior
Macargo
Swellow

I don't know why. It's probably his cool hat. o3o

Mortalis May 24th, 2010 7:40 PM

I want Oprah !

Hmm, I'd love to see a gym leader from Hoenn, like Roxanne, Brawly, Flannery, Norman or Wallace.

I think I want Wallace the most ... he could be in search of a new challenge in the region and end up playing a plot-line role. I've always loved Wallace's style and personality.

alisaie May 24th, 2010 7:45 PM

I'd like to see a Hoenn Gym Leader or something as well. Perhaps a hint to an oncoming remake for the third gen. Kind of like how people considering Jasmine to be the hint to G/S/C's remake back in D/P/Pl. Or at least that what I thought she hinted at.

BHwolfgang May 24th, 2010 7:46 PM

I personally feel that NPC's like Steven or Cynthia should make an appearance. Steven could present the player a rare Steel-type Pokemon and Cynthia might just be there to give advice or whatever. I just think that those two should be featured, because both are great NPC's. They shouldn't be wasted being just opponents in their own generation.

Another NPC that I want to see in Gen. V is Lance. Eh, I guess that what I just want previous Pokemon Champions to appear in this generation. It would be cool, though, if any of them do.

Wings Don't Cry May 24th, 2010 9:19 PM

I'd really want to see Annabel or Steven making a cameo. Mainly Annabel.

miltankRancher May 24th, 2010 9:29 PM

Prof Oak will probably be there again, as the top prof or something. that little punk...

I want to see the slowpoke guy! remember the one who was trying to sell you slowpoke tail for a million pokedollars? maybe now he is trying to sell slowking hat.

Azzurra May 24th, 2010 10:24 PM

"Cameos" are possible in the new version. Professor Oak has made many appearances over the course of the games and could possibly make yet another appearance in Black and White.

Sage Harpuia May 25th, 2010 12:03 AM

I think that, in the same way we get reference to kanto in R/S/E and Jasmine and other reference in D/P/Pt to Johto, we'll probably get some Hoen character and reference.

You are right, he is always everywhere! (except Hoen, maybe he is scared of poochyena!). However I wouldn't dislike a comeback if the other professsor has its own importance(like in Pt).

Rockets Lapras May 25th, 2010 1:39 AM

I miss Misty, she never gets old.

omg, totally stealing that idea for a ROM Hack. :D

I'd like to see a few characters return in a humourous manner, like the one above. :D

Azzurra May 25th, 2010 2:43 AM

Or maybe even a past Gym Leader from another returning to their "home region" revealing a cool little back story of sorts.

Simply hilarious. Along with showing how they've repented from their actions in RSE, it would show 2 head honchos arguing over something as simple as a chess game, when before they were arguing about land/sea dominance. I really wish I could see this scenario in Black and White... :D

My thoughts exactly; she's my favorite Hoenn Gym Leader! I'd like Sabrina of Kanto to make a cameo as well... Maybe Elite Four Sidney or Dome Ace Tucker (that moonwalking jerk) as well?

Having Professor Oak do a cameo would be kind of funny; since he's been in every Gen to date.

I'd really like it if the Trick Master from Hoenn did a cameo, since he said he was away on a trip to invent new tricks to stump the player, IIRC. New minigames like the ones featured in RSE's Trick House would be a nice little touch...

Like most others in the topic I laughed at this line! On a more thought provoking note I think it's something the games have lacked in the past; a humour factor. Though there have been a few nothing really witty ever comes up such as the idea you made. But in all honesty, that is something that wouldn't go out of place, I can imangine it!

I imagine the same, Prof. Oak trying to get his piece of the action with all the new pokemon around. I'm sure he'll at least be rating your pokedex over the computer. He'll get a mention at least, the man always manages to get his name in edgeways.

I think a lot of people are hoping for some characters from the Hoenn region to make an appearance, myself included. We did see Steven in HGSS but I think we could do with seeing a few more in B&W. I imagine it will spark off a Generation 3 remake speculation trend however. I can certainly see some of the Hoenn NPC's popping up here and there. But then again, I have a sneaking suspicion no one will, but that's just me looking upon the darker grass.

Previous Character Cameos
 
What are some characters from the previous regions would you like to see in black and white. Do you think Proffesor oak will be in this game? I personaly would like to see Gary Oak giving us our pokedex. What are your ideas

SIN1488 June 17th, 2010 7:39 PM

What does the title have to do with this actual thread?
XD


Anyway, I'm sure Professor Oak will be in this game, to keep up the trend of the last 2 ones.

It would be interesting to have many small cameos in it, like maybe you could see Silver peeking in a building like he's going to steal something. :P

And of course it's always interesting to run into some of the Gym Leaders from other games.
