Black or White?
Looks like the old thread died. Thus, it is time for a new one.
★ Which game are you getting and why? ★ If you've already gotten one of the games, do you regret getting that one and would prefer getting the other one? Or are you fine with what you have and if so, what makes you prefer that game? ★ If you're getting both, why? ★ Or are you waiting for the third game? I'll be getting both of the games, though I do plan on playing White first, mainly because of White Forest I guess. XD; |
I'll probably wait and get Gray, or whatever they decide to call the third game. Although if I do get one before then, it would be Black, because I like the look of Reshiram.
|
i like white ... but i guess i will take the deluxe version
|
Black is my favorite 'cause Reshiram is really awesome pokemon =)
And Black City is very nicely done as well. I wanna try White as well to see the look of White Forest. |
I will be getting both games for the first time as well. Because the version differences are much greater than in previous games, but also I want a game for all my event pokemon and a fun muck around game as well. Black will probs be my proper game.
|
I'll be getting both Black and White because I always get both versions of a Pokemon game and Reshiram and Zekrom are equally awesome. I'll be playing Black more often, though. I'm also looking forward to the third game (though I didn't vote for it in the poll).
|
Wow, most people are getting both? O_o
Originally, I was gonna get White, because I liked Zekrom, White Forest looked better than Black City, and I wanted to have Iris as the last Gym Leader. But then I realized something... White's exclusives suck. T_T I don't like ANY of them. But Black has Erufuun, Gochiruzeru, and Barujina. Those are three of some of my favorite Pokemon in this generation. So now I'm gonna get Black. And besides that, Reshiram's been growing on me. :P |
I'm getting Black. Reshiram looks much more appealing to me.
|
Third game, I always have 3rd game (Yellow, Crystal, Emerald, Platinum), It was better than the first 2
|
I've always enjoyed the third game versions attached to the other two, like emerald and platinum and such, but I really would like to get all three anyways.
|
Played White and it is pretty good. Getting Black when it comes out in English. The third game will probably be even better. Did not like Crystal compared to Silver, but Loved Emerald compared the Ruby.
|
I will get Black. Because I love Reshiram.:D
|
Aw this should've been the 6th Poll. :x It's a nice topic. Anyways, I saw this thread before, so I'm guessing it died out. XD I'm getting all three~ n_n I'm buying B/W once they come out. Playing Black, since I like Reshiram more, and then wait a couple of months and play White, so I won't be tired and know everything already. xD Then like, a year later when the so-called Gray comes out, I'll get that also. =P
|
Who actually voted for the 3rd game. We know nothing about it >:
Anyway, I choose both because I like them both... :~: I did want White because of the Pokemon selection and White forest. That is the last time I don't order my own games >: |
I'm getting Pokemon White purely because of Souryuu City. I absolutely hate the version of it in Black from the music to the architecture, which reminds me of Esthar from Final Fantasy 8... which is not good; I spent about an hour searching for that Elnoyle. Anywho, I digress.
I prefer the look of White Forest over Black City, which is quite ugly. The only real downside of White for me is that I have to get Zekrom instead or Reshiram, but thats nothing a quick trade or cheat wont fix. |

if anyone has any trouble deciding this image I made is for you I'm getting white because of the white exclusives and mainly the white forest |
So I got Black in Japanese, and I'm getting White when it comes to the US.
Can I just say that Black City is very disappointing considering you only fight 3-4 rotation battles once, and then there are ~5 NPC who you can battle once a day, and their Pokemon never change. Let's see, there's a Staraptor, Magnezone, an Electevire, and I can't remember the other few. But yeah... VERY DISAPPOINTING. For such a "big city" there are only 4 accessible houses with nothing interesting in them, and one big building that sells SOME battle items, where you battle the rotation battles. Something tells me White Forestis just as bad, and you can only find Oddish and Magikarp... |
I have Pokemon Black in Japanese.
I plan on getting Pokemon White in English. And I will most likely get the third game too. o: |
I'm getting White as soon as it come out here in the states :)
I wanted it at first because...well I just thought it would be cooler than Black, and now I think I might have been right :D |
White.
Because the list of Pokemon you can find in the White Forest via Serebii and the Highlink. The beauty of High School is that you can find countless people who like Pokemon Zekrom Much better version exclusives And I am getting the third version as well, yep. |
I was going to orginally buy White but I remeber when I rushed buying Diamond and then Platinum came out and I was like; what the hell? So this time I am not going to let my addiction for pokemon take over. Imma be patient and wait for the third game to be released. Hopefully being tns better than the both of them.

Anyway, I personally find almost none of the exclusives worthwhile. The only White exclusive I even remotely care about is Zekrom anyway, so White Forest is the most decisive factor for me. |
I got White already in September,a week after the release. I prefer it than Black because of the natural aesthetics,sadly i don't like version exclusives there. >_<
I don't care Reshiram is rather better than Zekrom. I rather don't like legendaries, especially the ones you HAVE to catch. I'm not getting an English BW. I will get the third game when it comes out in English. That would be even more interesting. |
I'm getting White version instead of Black. I was thinking about getting Black for Reshiram(Or however you spell it) but once I checked out Zekrom status and moves, I decided to get White Version instead. I like Zekrom better then Reshiram now.
|
Hmmm, it's a hard choice really. I was planning on getting white, because I thought that Reshiram would of been in it rather than black. x_x Then I changed my mind and decided that I was going to get black for Reshiram. Now seeing version exclusives among other things, I feel I should get both. XDD;
|
Quote:
So I'd say I'll be getting both, one used by my brother until the switch, and one for me; Pokémon Black being the main one I will use. (: |
Both. And if there's a third game, I'll most likely be buying that too.
|
I have already bought the JP version of black from amazon. So yes, when English, it will be black too.
|
im gonna get black the pokemon for it looks cool as
|
I am going to start out with Black, and if it is good, I'll get the third one that comes out. I will not really need White, seeing as my sis will be getting it and if I ever need to trade for legendaries, well, I have my source. lol. Black attracts me, although I like the legendary for White better... But the city makes me happy. lol.
|
I went for Black because... I like the colour black. No, actually Black sounds more evil, that is the reason. XD
|
White, I like zekrom more... Though I like black city more... T_T
|
Everyone wants me to get Black because I'm Black. >.> But I'm getting White. Solely because I already have Pokemon Black(J)
|
Lol, MiZ. XD
I honestly think most people are getting Black, just because it's, well... Black. O_o Black, I guess is a more popular color than White. =/ |
If I can find Black I'll get that..if not Whit is just as good.
|
Looks like i'll be getting white, seeing as Zekrom and Wargle look awesome :D
Although black city does look alot better than whites 'forest'... |
Quote:
|
I plan on purchasing both versions on release day, but I'll be playing through White first.
I'll also pick up the third version whenever it's released. |
I have White in Japanese, and I'm getting Black in English!
I'm not sure about if I'm going to get the third game, because it'll seem a bit stale at that point, probably. But if it has enough cool new features, I might get it. |
White, because only it has Wargle, in Black, we get a fugly vulture with horrible stats, while Wargle has excellent stats and looks awesome.....
White has one more thing that Black does not: RANKURUSU!!!!!! |
White. It has the better selection of Pokemon, in my opinion. Wargle, Doredia, Zekrom, etcetera, etcetera. :D
|
White, i think has good pokemons,and ii prefer the the White Florest
|
I'll get one of the two (haven't really decided yet) and I'll get the third game when it comes out as well.
|
★ Which game are you getting and why?
Got Pokémon White in Japanese, going to get either Black or White in English the day it comes out :) ★ If you've already gotten one of the games, do you regret getting that one and would prefer getting the other one? Or are you fine with what you have I'm happy with the game I have but I've stopped playing for any further spoilers.. currently, I prefere the colour White to Black.. :D. ★ If you're getting both, why? ★ Or are you waiting for the third game? I'm not waiting, but eventually, I'll have all 3 Games :P. |
I got Pokemon Black, only because I wanted Reshiram. However, I will be planning to get White as well since I love the White Forest.
|
I got both as an emulator for now and plan on getting them when the come out. Reason for both is that I can never choose between them and always got both version and played them almost simultaneously to ensure that both adventures were on point and had a different feel about them. And when the third title, if any, comes out I will be getting that one as well, and that adventure will be completely different from the two and most likely, like all the third versions before it, played with more care and in depth.
|
I'm definitely getting both + the 3rd game when it's out.
Black& White is too tempting not to get both; And I always love buying the 3rd game to see how much differences it has. |
So, at first, I wanted White badly. Then, I asked my brother what he wanted. He said White.
Since then, I've been considering Black, as I'll be able to trade stuff with him, and it would be a waste for the both of us to buy the same game. Now, I like Reshiram a lot over Zekrom (mostly of the type), and even though I still prefer Rankurusu over Gochizeru, I'll just get one from my bro' ! ...and when it comes out, I'll get the third one as well. But for now, I just voted Black. |
I'll most likely go get Black Version. Being able to buy rare items will come in handy way more than finding them randomly in the wild.
And I believe there's a way to transfer Pokémon from the 4th Gen to the 5th Gen, so yeah... |
Definitely white. Cuz it haz Zekrom and it has the White Forest which means more Pokemon! Though on the other hand... Black City might have people giving away stuff. But white has the blue piranha pokemon which looks cooler than the red one.
|
I'm getting both, but my main game will be on White. I like the legendary's better. |
Black, man. That Black City looks awesome, for realsies.
|
What happened to 'it doesn't matter if your black or white'? >_>
Anyway, I prefer White just because of the Pokemon that you can get in the game that are not in Black. |
I am going to get Pokemon White, because I want Zekrom :D Also because of White Forest.
|
well I already have the Japanese Black, so I will get White version. Zekrom is way cooler than that giant fire chicken of a dragon thing anyway...
|
Black because it rhymes with Black Ops. Nah I'm kidding. Black seems pretty cool to me. I ordered Pearl, Heart Gold and it's time to order something darker.
|
Well I always get both versions, one a little bit later right after I get the first one (like a month or two later) but I'm getting Pokemon White first because Zekrom is on the cover and I've always thought that he was better than Reshiram just because of the way that it looks. I'm also not too found towards an Fire/Dragon type anyways
:t354:TG |
I imported White because the legendary looked cooler. I'll get Black when it comes out in English. I'll get the third game because it's a Pokemon video game tradition for me.
|
I voted White.
Both versions look great, but of course I'm only getting one. |
I really don't care which one I would get; I like them both equally.
But if I had to choose, I'd choose White. White is an appealing color to me, not to mention I like Zekrom. Then I'd try to get some money to finish the set; can't have White without Black and Gray. |
I'm getting White. I like Zekrom a lot more than Reshiram, and I like being able to catch Pokemon in White Forest that you can only battle in Black City. The version that I've liked the most in every generation has been the most popular one, until now. When the games were first announced I thought White would be the more popular one, so I'm surprised that more people like Black and Reshiram.
|
I'm going to get Black when it releases in the U.S. mostly because I like Reshiram better than Zekrom, based off of appearance and type. I know I'll get the third game, too, when it comes out, though. :)
|
This will be the second time I get both versions, though I guess Hoenn doesn't really count since I only got Ruby a few weeks ago for challenges.
|
I HAVE NO IDEA.
Its tearing me apart! Black has Gochiruzeru, but White has Wargle! Black City has Trainers to fight but White Forest has Pokemon to catch! But im getting White, just because my friend will get black. |
Definitely getting both, as well as the third one when it comes out. (if it's actually got some cool changes)
I'm probably the world's most indecisive person, so getting both solves my problem, as well as giving me more to do. 8D |
White. I don't know anything about version exclusives, I don't want to know, I just prefer Zekrom, to be quite honest.
I'll get Gray when it's released, too, even if there's not going to be much differences (but there will be :P). |
im going to get white right away probably wait a month or 6 weeks and then get black as well and ofcourse when the third one comes out i will get it as well. i really like zekrom more but i have a case of gotta catch 'em alls so i will have to get both so i can get them all, and then have the fun of getting the other pokemon from previous versions just to have a full dex, oh boy its going to take a while.
|
I'm getting all three. I've played Black and kind've enjoyed it. There are some random level differences that re slightly hard to overcome... Hopefully the 3rd game will be for the 3DS.
|
I'll officially say that I'm getting all three only when I hear they definitely will make a third installment from the man himself.
But for now, I've already preordered both and I've payed them off. So once release comes around I just have to walk up to the counter and pick them up. I buy every single main-series Pokemon RPG when it comes out, so yeah. I'll be progressing through White Version as my sister plays Black Version. I've already decided I would go with White, no particular reason why, I just determined I would play White as soon as I heard news of them (which was long before they revealed Rom and Ram or any of the exclusive stuff). "Hey man, when u gettin' Black Ops??" - thousands of kids at my school who are currently playing Black Ops and want me to get it so I can join in on their zombie killing fest. "What no, it's all about Black and White, man." - Me |
I would end up getting White and, most likely, the third game.
White has cooler pokemon, in my opinion. |
I'll be getting Black. Reason? Because my brother wants White. That's how it always plays out for us. He wants Pearl. Sure, I'll get Diamond. It always works out. We're constantly trading.
|
★ Which game are you getting and why?
Black, I always like the underdog Pokemon (Ho-Oh, Reshiram, Raikou) and Zekrom just doesn't appeal to me that much. I like Black's version exclusives better except for the fact that White has Wargle/Washibon. ★ If you've already gotten one of the games, do you regret getting that one Haven't got one, I'm patient. and would prefer getting the other one? Or are you fine with what you have and if so, what makes you prefer that game? ★ If you're getting both, why? Nope ★ Or are you waiting for the third game? Nope |
I think I'll wait for the third game...
They tend to be better then the first two, so... |
I am most likely to get Black since it has Honchkrow and the other Flyuing/Dark Exclusive. IMO, the Black City looks a lot better than the white forest and stronger pokemon FTW. pokemon > items.
Also, I like Reshiram over Zekrom. But, I like battling Zekrom since for some reason it just seems more powerful. The only part I hate about black is the fact that it has more rotation battles... |
I'm getting both.
But I'm going to get Black first. I like Reshiram more than Zekrom. But when I get a job next summer and start making my own money, I'm going to buy White. |
I would like to Pick Pokemon Black, as it's my favorite. but i also prefer Deluxe version of it.
|
I like the atmosphere of Soryu City in White, but functionally, Black City seems much more interesting than White Forest.
Also White got shafted (a little) in regards to Wargle not being 100% exclusive to it, thanks to you-know-who. This is coming from a guy who got White on release day for the sake of Ranculus. |
Id go out for pokemon black if you ask me
|
I'll be getting Pokémon Black, for the legendary Vast White Pokémon Reshiram.
|
Grey
I'll be getting White in English, I wanted White in japanese but I got the wrong one -.- I like the exclusives better; Zekrom, Seed bby and Wargle :D |
I wanted black. then I wanted white. now I think I want black again :)
...what I've wanted since I first heard of the games was to get the third game. but I can't wait that long :laugh: but... if I get one of the first two I probably won't end up getting the third. :/ ... I'm more confused than I started out being lol. maybe I will get the third game too if there's enough of a difference from the first two. like emerald...I liked emerald compared to ruby/sapphire |
I'm gonna get White. I just like the pokémon selection in it more. Caterpie, Mismagius, Zekrom.... Much better than their counterparts, IMO.
|
Im going for black. Seems pretty cool
|
All three. ALL THREEEEE. They're going to be my ( belated ) Christmas presents. Oh, except [Grey], because it's still another year+ away from being released, so I'm getting the guide/PokeDex with White and Black instead. |
Quote:
|
I'm going for white because zekrom is awesome
|
Quote:
I'm also getting white for it and because I said I was getting White since day one.. |
I am so getting White.
(For obvious Wargle related reasons.) |
I'm probably going to end up getting Black first. When I complete the game, if I wasn't sastified, I'll get white. Oh what a waste of money <3
|
White! White! White!
I'm most probably going to get White because of White Forest and some other version exclusive Pokemon. But I still wanted to have Reshiram over Zekrom. :( |
I will be getting all three versions. Oh, and I have the Japanese versions of both games already. As for the English versions, I might get Black first. Why? Nothing in particular. Then it'll be White.
|
I played Black. Reshiram looks way cooler to me, plus I can go to Black City get stuff ;D
|
I usually get one of the first two games, then the third game. I'm going for White, then waiting for the third game.
I'm kinda surprised more people want black then white. I think the legend in white looks much better (I get mixed up with the names). And I'm glad both legends are pretty awesome looking. I was disappointed with Dialga and Palkia tbh. |
When Reshiram and Zekrom were announced my friend and I decided that I would get Black as I prefer Fire Chicken and he would get White as he prefers Generator Dragon. Yet now I'm kind of regretting it. I like Black City as I'm more of a battler than a Pokemon collector but that saying, the version exclusive Pokemon in White, in my opinion, are way better. Wargle I can live without but I wants my Rankurusu!!
|
Both have their good and bad points, I'm certain that both of them are good :)
|
I am going to get all three xD Eventually... But, I would like to get Black first because I like the look of Reshiram, better than Zekrom.
|
I'm getting both White and the third version for some reason I seem to get the second and third versions of each odd gen...(I also plan on getting the ruby remake...just how I got Firered in gen 3...)
|
I have the white version and strongly believes that it is better than black
|
I'll be getting both. I would get one, but the two 3D cities are different, and I want to see both. I'll play Pokémon White first, because I really don't like Reshiram. Zekrom just looks much better.
|
White. Then I'll be getting Black. And then the third one. I already have all my teams picked out xD
