stuff to do after beating the main story
when you're done taking down the mastermind and save the world from an eternity of sorrow, you can't help but ask: "all is well, so, what now?"
do you keep on training your pokemon enough to face the champion or secret trainers? or retire and dress them up fancy for a musical? or maybe go where you couldn't before? whatever the case, what would you do? would there be a time you'd get bored? |
I found out that a lot of things I still could do after I defeated N. I mean, the right half of Unova was now available for me to explore, with three cities and more route full of touch trainers. In fact, the story still didn't entirely end for me as I still had to hunt down the Sages whom gave him small back story on N & Team Plasma which I was somewhat intrigued.
There's also more access areas you previously visited, which would contain more pokemon. Speaking of pokemon, there are also some more legendary pokemon you can now try your hand at catching like Kyurem and Tornadus/Thundarus. I mean, I was glad with all the stuff I still got to do after I beat the game. I just managed to beat Morimoto today! Pokemon musicals aren't that bad either, I kind of got a bit addicted & stuff. |
I'd explore Unova some more and take on the Battle Subway once I transfer over some old Pokemon from D/P/Pt/HG/SS.
|
I've just completed the elite 4/main storyline so I've got loads more to go. I don't think I'll bother catching them all, but there's plenty of training and plot yet to complete.
|
I've just completed the game and right now I'm doing a series of tasks,
- Catch all Legends with benefiting natures. Done. - Catch every Unova Pokemon. Incomplete. - Defeat the battle subway. Haven't even started. |
Start EV training or hunt legendaries.
|
Shiny hunting, preparing for the WCS and such. I also spent alot of time in the GTS negotiations.
|
Post game stuff??
Hey just completed the story and was wondering if anyone knows of a usefull link that gives detail into all the post game stuff along with all the side quests for this game. I've browsed over google but had no luck, just really want a sense of direction to get the most i possibly can outa this sweet game. Cheers

I've been to every city and still haven't completed the game. There's lots of fun new Pokemon and trainers to battle. Say does anyone know if you can catch Zekrom in Black?
|
I do eventually get bored, will put it down for a few months and then resume again as normal.
But to answer your main question I tend to go and have a look around at the new places and see what old gen pokemon I can get my hands on, I also attempt to level up as many pokemon as I can and EV train anything I catch with a good nature in case I ever take to competitive battling one day. |
Try to solve the abyssal ruins -_-" uggg ive tried strength couldnt use it, flash didnt work, waterfall puh-lease, cant dive while diving lol, the only 1 i havent tried is sweet scent :/ which i doubt works under water
and of course i explore everything about the region as much as i can :) |
Other half of Unova, Seven Sages, oh, and I still gotta catch 'em all...still quite a lot to do xD
|
My sights are set on filling the Unova Pokedex after that I'll EV train and of course Shiny Hunt.
|
I just beat the game for the 2nd time.. Now I'm focusing on leveling all/most my Pokemon to 100.
|
Where are the abyssal ruins? I haven't found them.
|
Actually, I was planning on going to Lacunosa Town. But I'm having a hard time when Pokemon trainers along the way has 60+ POKEMON. I mean, what's with the level shift!? My highest level is Serperior at 53!
Although, after I go to Lacunosa Town, I plan to train my Pokemon for a bit. I should have gotten Black, I'm not really interested in catching Pokemon in White Forest. <.< |
At the moment I have a bunch of tasks:
* Complete my dex (it seems like a big task however I have almost a full dex in soul silver I can migrate them over when I get the 3ds so it's not so daunting) * Find the sages (I've found two out of the six I need to find) * Level up my main team to take on post story trainers easily (I'm almost finished this) * Explore the Royal Unova more. (I tried today for the first time but only managed to beat 4 out of 5 trainers, plus my team was completely wrecked cause I brought no hyper potions) * Complete the battle subway. (I've tried it once and quit after 7 battles, I'll try again but I'm not really fond of battles I can't get exp from) * Catch a zen mode Darmanitan in the desert * Figure out the mystery of the Abyssal ruins * Explore relic castle more deeply * Explore a new area in the dreamyard and catch the Musharna there. * Eventually challenge the elite four again and defeat the champion. (With no rude interruptions this time :p ) * Explore the dream world when it goes online * Explore Challengers cave * Catch Kyurem & The Musketeer trio, get a Reshiram and Tornadus from someone else, then catch Landurus * Play with musicals when I'm bored and happen to be passing the building * Defeat all the riches in Undella town (that reminds me I need to go there again) * Battle trainers in small and large courts in Nimbasa City * Battle and Defeat Cynthia and the game freak guy * Figure out what the point of Lacunosa Town actually is * Find the guy in Twist Mountain who gives out fossils * Visit Anville Town again on a weekend and try find some deals. * Find the Abundant Shrine and explore it. (The one location I still have no clue where it is...even though I've been through every route) * Gush at the novelty of people I've traded with appearing in Unity Tower * Explore the Unova region in different seasons. (like winter) * Get flash and explore wellspring cave when I can actually see where I'm going * Explore Mistralton Cave, apparently it's not the same thing as Chargestone Cave. So as you can see there's still plenty of things to do, it's overwhelming. I probably haven't listed everything either. I think there's more to do post game in Black/White than any previous game. I don't remember myself exploring very much in Diamond/Soul Silver after I beat the elite four. On a side note, I have to say White Forest was a complete letdown. :( However I still stand by picking White, because it has Reuniclus. :3 |

As for what I am doing, right now it's just exploring, trying to find every TM possible, and just finishing the post-E4 plot. |
I'm a total perfectionist. Right now, I'm trying to catch every pokemon possible without trading, collecting every TM, training my pokemon to the max lvl, and trying to find Strength... Yeah, I can't find it....
I guess I'm failing at training my pokemon, cause they aren't strong enough to beat any trainers to get to Undella town. :P |
Well, for starters, the right half of Unova was opened to me. That's a lot itself. Also, I had to search for the Sages... still working on that. I could catch Volcarona, Kyurem, Cobalion and co., and Thundurus. I got all of them except for the flying electric wizard. >> I'm also working on training my Pokemon. But most of the time, I just sit in the Random Battle thing and look for battles. =D SO happy they put that in.
|
Well I've compleated the game a couple days ago and i've been finding all the TMs, Finding all the Sages (only 2 left to go :D:D), Finding out what team i want breeding them and then EV training them (My first time ever attempting this so fingers cross) and catching all the odd looking pokemon for my Odd pokemon team :D:D (so far got a Litwit, Vanillnite, Yamask, Dwebble) and also visiting the friendly neighbourhood Fossil giver and see what i get !
|
Explore half the region, EV train, shiny hunt, PokéTransfer, legendary capture, breed, train to level 100, create new teams, catch them all, train them all, etc. :P
|
Well, since all areas aren't available in Autumn, it will take 4 months to completely beat this game. Ah, sweet longevity. =D
|
Unova: Up to standards?
Having recently beat the Elite Four for a second time, I took my first steps back into Unova, and thought... now what?
Basically, what I'm saying is do you think there's enough to do in a day in Unova? -Totodile42 |
