Personally, I think White has the best Pokemon exclusives, though it isn't why I chose the version I did (since I got both but White is my main). I noticed though, that most of White's exclusives line up the exclusives of my past games, so it kinda works out.
Though I do think Basculin should be exclusive to each version and not just "rare", same for Sawk/Throh. Disappointed when I found that out. :( |
I'm not sure. White has Solosis, while black can get Shroomish, and therefore Breloom.
It's a tough choice, but I think I'd have to say white. Solosis and its family are so much cooler than Gothita and co. |
As much as I wanted to play White first due to its "better" version exclusives, I went with Black instead because of Reshiram.
|
I love all of Black's exclusives (except Gothitelle line sorry sorry) but I would love to have Thundurus and Reuniclus if I could. Those are the two big ones from White that I wasn't able to get myself cos I had Black. >:O
I think that if they indeed made all Pokemon catchable in the next generation, they'll need to do a lot of varying with rarity levels. Like, it should be possible to catch everything on your own should you want to but it'd be much much easier if you were to trade between the versions. Things that are rare in one game would be common in the other etc and promote a lot of trading. :B |
-How version exclusives affected or did not affect the version you chose.
Yes, I'm supposed to get Black but White has a better Pokemon so I went for White instead. -Whether or not one version has an advantage over the other due to exclusives As I said, frankly, I think White exclusives are better. Plus, it has more version exclusive (Including White Forest)... so... |
I would have originally gotten White purely for Petilil and Lilligant, but I also wanted Black for Reshiram, so I got that one instead. I now have realised that Cottonee is at par with them, and even though White has Reuniclus and that family, Black yields Sawk primarily, as well as Volbeat, Shroomish and Vullaby/Mandibuzz, which I think personally are better than their White version counterparts. :)
|
Can't you just trade a Cottonee for Petilil anyway? So those aren't exactly version exclusives...
|
Actually, according to me version exclusives SHOULDN'T be there, because people like me, in countries like India, don't get access to the Wi-Fi from the DS, plus, there isn't any support and Pokemon people playing here.
|
For the most part White has the best version exclusives, but I went for Black instead for Reshiram. I was so proud when I finally caught it :3
|
I actually purchased White for Zekrom xD I was also happy to find out that all of White's exclusives are actually pretty good, some of which are my favorites. Reuniclus and Braviary = awesomeness :3
|
I wanted Mismagius and Solosis sooo bad, but bought Black because of Gothitelle D: I'm still happy w/ Black but I want to know how White Forrest is.. D:
|
About that... it seems like the White exclusives are getting better treatment than the Black exclusives. Makes me sad tho because I am currently playing white but I hate hate hate Renuclus because it's too perfect and gets special treatment while they treat their other like a POS. They spent more time on that Pokemon then they did making Gothitelle just as good as everyone else.

I think both of them have good exclusives, but I picked white because...of the forest I guess.

I would think White has better exclusives, Mightyena and Braviary are pretty good, and Butterfree is pretty cool.
|
lmao, I prefer Black exclusives over White, just because Reshiram is damn sexy, Gothitelle is a tank, Beedrill over Butterfree anyday, Whimsicott can destroy Lilligant, and Mandibuzz has access to Dark Pulse without breeding.
Oh, and, first pure Flying-type ever. Suck it. |
Well, I mainly got White for Zekrom (HE'S BLACK, OH YES!). But, I agree with ohsoRANDOM, the Black exclusives are better (Except for Zekrom :P).
|
Both of them are equally awesome...there are some such as Mardibuzz and Murkrow that I would like to have seen in white...though thankfully one can get around it if they can go to the dream world ^_^.
|
lmao, I'll take Honchkrow over Mismagius anyday.
|
But but Mismagius is adorable D:
http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/4/41/Mismagius_anime.png i was sad that it was a white exclusive. Now that i have white i can catch one and maybe replace Giratina or Simipour. I got Black because of Gothitelle because she was cute and adorable. |
I think both of them have equally good exclusives, that's one of the reasons why I got both Pokémon Black and White.
|
I plan on getting Black for Reshiram even though I so wanted Reuniclus and Braviary (till I found out they were in White, I was so depressed :<). According to Smogon, Reshiram is currently the best Uber in the metagame (being able to 2HKO Choice Kyogre and other tankers) so I'll be getting it and topple Unova with it! XD
But I found out that Gothitelle is a blocking rocker while helping my friend train it and I helped him beat Shauntal's first 2 Pokemon with it and put up a good fight before it was down cos I forgot to heal it XD Mandibuzz isn't that bad, I just find it quite ugly for a female vulture. :P I heard that one can receive Petilil somehow so that doesn't worry me. I don't really care for the previous generation Pokemon since I can just migrate them over. :) |
I got Black because of Reshiram; I don't care about any of the other Pokemon since I wasn't going to use them anyway. The only Pokemon from White I needed was Reuniclus, which I obtained from the GTS.
