there's another thing, the Elite Four
normally, I just battle through until I lose, buy more of an item and repeat until I've got over 100 revives and super potions this time, there's such a large level jump between the Elite Four (high 40s) to N and Geechisu (50-54) it's kind of a shame his Reshiram/Zekrom is two levels higher then YOUR dragon... |
I like the Exp gain, wasn't to fast wasn't to slow it was just right for me lmao

Your avatar <3 anywho, once you got the Exp Share, my life got a LOT easier <3 |
I never had to grind, except for...Nevermind, no, I pretty much never had to grind. Even for the Elite Four, I didnt really need to, since my Serperior was just that..Superior XD. Audinos are quite good Exp actually. And compared to HG/SS, grinding is quite easy. Run around some grass, wait for it to shake, then run in it..Compared to HG/SS where you either have to battle random Pokemon, or wait for one of those newb trainers you have already beaten call you...

I battled every trainer and random encounter and still needed to grind.
|
hang in there I guess
they're great games, just lacking exp gain until you get Exp Share and Lucky Egg |
Not at all, by the time I was at the E4, I was able to run in there without any grinding and beat them first try each. Easiest gen I've ever played tbh.
In fact, I didn't have to grind at all.. |
every player offers a unique strategy...I normally am at least 5 levels or below, yet I (somehow) manage to pull off a win...
|
Really? Every time I train my Pokémon, the levels went up pretty fast for me, due to level compensation for Experience Points. It's easier to just chuck an Exp. Share on a Pokémon, and battle a high-levelled Trainer with your favourite battling Pokémon - it's easier. It might be slightly slower, but in the end, it's more fun and less of a chore. And you'll still end up gaining a lot of experience.

Exp Share is good, but I don't use it on Gym Leaders, only Trainers and Wild Pokemon....
|
When I played through B/W I never actually needed to grind.
I felt that the way they set up the trainers and wild pokemon was that I would almost always be the same level as the trainers I was facing, which actually added a slight bit of challenge. The way I trained through the game was like this: Pokemon would be ordered in the way I obtained them. Once my first pokemon reached say level 25, he would go to the bottom of the list until every other pokemon on my team, in order, reached the same level. I found that my way made my team balanced and also made it easier for me to pull off wins. The only time I was actually over leveled is early on when most of my team members were not on my team. I never used the Lucky Egg and by the time I reached the Elite Four all of my pokemon were around 45. The only time I used the lucky egg was after the Elite Four, and that was only to gain levels faster against the limited amount of trainers there were. |
I found it very slow and tedious to train my Pokemon in Pokemon Black and White.
Especially for my Hall of Fame challenge where I am pretty much forced to battle wild Audino to train. It would be a lot better if there were more things to train on then wild Audino, the E4, Cynthia and that Game Freak guy. Well maybe in the 3rd version we might get something more useful for training. |
My strategy in Pokémon games used to be horrible, to be honest, but the new games corrected my game play in the way that I wasn't just training my first Pokémon, but developing a party that I could use throughout the game. I did require some training before the Elite Four, though. The after that, the only time you'll really have to have to train is before the level jump on the right side of Unova, because the Pokémon jump about 10 levels D:. Though if you can defeat them, the new Exp system kicks in, allowing you to be some match against them and jumping a few levels, though I myself haven't reached this quite yet.

the Lucky Egg helps once you get it at Electric Rock Cave
level up 2 pokemon with that and Exp. Share, then switch the Exp Share around and let another pokemon hold the lucky Egg to battle until your team is at a decent level |
Well, I found it to be perfectly alright, provided you just play through the game without messing around much, just like my first runthrough.
However, this time, I was constantly over-levelled up until the 8th gym (well, actually up until the battle with Bianca before Tubeline Bridge, where she was, amazingly, stronger than me), and so I'd been using Exp. Share to raise random pokémon a lot and restrict my growth. But now I'm underlevelled for the Elite Four! So, overall I think it's fine. Although that thing about higher-levelled pokémon getting less experience is really annoying. |
I guess they wanted you to focus on raising weak pokemon...
|
I found it to be just as easy as in old games, if not easier.
Tabunne and the Lucky Egg exist for a reason. |
I liked how they added "Rustling Grass" and other phenomena
|
I think it has great exp points. I had no trouble leveling up my pokemon. I barely did any grinding.
The amount of points you get fighting in battles is ridiculous. I think it makes filling my dex less challenging which is a good and a bad thing. |
guess I need to keep pushing forward then...
