30 Days of Unova
 


















Information
While this is starting with AUF2, it will continue throughout this entire month because this is 30 Days of Unova! Every day answer one question about Unova, traveling through the region like you did when you first picked up your copy of the games.

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

I didn't buy Black on its Australian release (March 10, 2011). I waited until my birthday (October 1) to get it where I got Black as a birthday present.

PlatinumDude March 3rd, 2012 11:29 PM

Day 1: Did you buy B/W on its release date? (in your country) Why or why not?

I didn't buy them on the release day because I didn't have enough time to go to the store and buy it. But I did buy them in Singapore when I saw the chance, even though I asked my aunt to buy them for me beforehand; I just gave those copies to my younger cousins.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ March 3rd, 2012 11:38 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

No. There was a mix up at that evil, evil place called Wal-Mart. Got it like two weeks afterward.

Legendary Silke March 4th, 2012 1:17 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

Not quite, no. Took me a bit of time before actually getting it because, well, things do not get here that fast. :)

zantetsu122 March 4th, 2012 1:17 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
A: No. I would, but I can't find a copy in some game stores.

Malkaz March 4th, 2012 1:31 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
No, these days I didn't even had a DS and I'm playing White since december.

Ho-Oh March 4th, 2012 1:51 AM

o_O

1. Did you buy it on its release date?

I did! I'm surprised I was the only one. I remember I caught the bus and went to the shops to get the games, I was so excited. :3; Can't believe all of you so far didn't, though.

vaporeon7 March 4th, 2012 2:08 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Of course I did! Well I got my mum to buy them while I was at school. Then when I got home, I played White non-stop until I left for school the next morning... no sleep for me. I was/am obsessed okay.

gvgisdi March 4th, 2012 2:21 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

Nope. I'm not sure if it's even available in my country; it can be bought on Internet, but it's too expensive for me, and I don't have a DS (it's too expensive too). :( But I think I'll buy Black or White some day.

Saturated Hue March 4th, 2012 3:43 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

No, unfortunately. It wasn't available in my country, so I had my cousin who lives in the states buy two copies and send one of them to me.

miltankRancher March 4th, 2012 4:07 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

Nah. There were no released dates, IIKC, here in my country. I borrowed a copy of each from my cousin who came home from States, and played it. Afterwards, I got a copy of the ROM.

Palkia March 4th, 2012 4:12 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

I actually preordered it in GAME (uk chain of retailers which are pretty much screwed now :() and got it on the released date in the afternoon. Fortunately it was a Friday and I played it till 1am in the morning. It was actually the first time I preordered anything and decided to try it out on a game series I love.

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Actually, I pre-ordered it on GAMESTOP, two weeks before its release, which was crazy really. I thought that since it costed a mere 35 bucks, it would only cost this much if I pre-order it. My sister didn't though, since she didn't have the money at the time our of her wallet. When the day came to receive it, I realized it costed the same anyway, even if you didn't pre-order it. I was disappointed, but eh, I didn't care and watched as my sister not only bought the game, but the handbook as well for only 5 more dollars.

Bluerang1 March 4th, 2012 5:28 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
No. I was in Nigeria and they don't have an official release date, had to import.

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
Boy and yes.

3. What did you think of Nuvema town? Too small? Should they have switched it up with a different kind of town than previous games?
It was good. Bigger than previous games with more houses, well the rivals' ones anyway.

4. Which starter did you choose and why? Did you regret it later?
Snivy and no. However I did find Servine's movepool far too limited.

Pokemon Trainer Touko March 4th, 2012 5:53 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Nope XD; I got my Jap version a while before the English release date lol XDD;
but then i lost it at school haha XDD;

Yoshikko March 4th, 2012 5:58 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
I think I bought it the day after (if not the day itself but idr), I did want to get it as soon as possible but it's not like I was sleeping in front of the shop to get it lol, so to speak.

i really don't get this do i answer the next one tomorrow or D;;

King! March 4th, 2012 6:15 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

Yep! :3 At least, I think so.... Usually with new Pokemon games I preorder them at GameStop a couple weeks before. And I'm pretty sure that's what I did with Black/White xD

Sweet Candace March 4th, 2012 6:19 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

I did not get my game on the release date, I got my copy a week after their US release.

kuzronk March 4th, 2012 6:21 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Yes i traded my sisters nintendogs and the sims 2 in for it at JB-Hi-Fi

TheBestRed March 4th, 2012 6:31 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

No because i was busy and was being poor at the time but eventually i got it

Plasmette March 4th, 2012 6:35 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

I got it close to release date. However, I lost it and didin't complete it untill the next year.
I was starting to lose interest in Pokemon, but then I found White...instantly hooked T_T

PaxAmericana March 4th, 2012 6:47 AM

Did you buy B/W on it's release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

I did go to GameStop to get them that day, I got both games, and it cost about 70 dollars iirc. I had to get them that day. I have done that since HG/SS.

Karma Police March 4th, 2012 6:49 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

Unfortunately no. Mainly because there was no release date in my country and so I was forced to get a copy of the ROM and play through on that. I still don't think it has been officially released yet.

Actually;

1.) I also caught the bus to get it on release, from my local supermarket.
I had previously completed Black on a Japanese import, but was extremely hyped to get white on release date.

SniDERPvy March 4th, 2012 7:36 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
You betcha! Now I have a Japanese White Version and an English Black Version :3

Joshawott March 4th, 2012 7:52 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

I did not, reason being I had broken my previous model of a DS and was waiting to purchase a 3DS. It sure was hard for me to wait an additional month knowing the games were already out. :laugh:

Meganium March 4th, 2012 7:54 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

I did on Release Day!! I actually preordered it and got it on the day it released, though I had to wait a couple of months after since I did not have a DS to play in. It was actually worth the wait. :D

johnny18 March 4th, 2012 8:16 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Yes I do because I could not wait after I heard the release day so I tried to get and play it as soon as possible. I really do not have the patient to buy Black/White after the release days because I will just go ahead and buy the used game rather than the new one.

Alley Cat March 4th, 2012 8:24 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

I was planning to. But my DSi got stolen, so I wasn't going to waste my money on a game I wouldn't be able to play. I was really disappointed because I was looking forward to it.

Jeremy March 4th, 2012 9:49 AM

Here we go, sweeties!
1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Of course I did, sweetie! Well being a Nintendo fan who HAS to get first/second party games at launch and being a Pokémon fan, it only made sense. Plus I believe I was racing with my friends to see who can beat the game first. ^^;

GhostQuill March 4th, 2012 9:55 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Nope, it was never formally released here plus I wouldn't buy it anyway
Ain't got the money and I have an R4

Alina_Mau March 4th, 2012 9:55 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

NUH DX I still don't have the money to get it but I'm super determined to know as little about it as possible, I prefere to play pokemon games "blind".

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire March 4th, 2012 10:03 AM

1)Did you buy BW on it's release date? Why or why not?

Yes, I had my sister take me to buy both Black and White. I was really excited and couldn't wait any longer.

blue March 4th, 2012 10:15 AM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

Yes! infact, I pre-ordered a couple of weeks before just to make sure I got it on the day and the reason I did this because I know I wouldn't be able to wait any longer!

ShinyDiamond March 4th, 2012 2:30 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

Unfortunately no. I didn't have enough money to buy the game. It took me almost a year to get the money. My cousin & his dad took me to Gamestop so I could get the game. I bought White that day & it was really cool!

Kevin March 4th, 2012 2:30 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Yep, I was so psyched about it of course I bought it when it came out.

Virtual Headache March 4th, 2012 2:39 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

No, I already imported the Japanese version so I waited a bit because I wasn't sure whether I should buy the German version first. I finally bought it approximately a month after the release, still in time for me to get another Victini from the European event.

Awesome. March 4th, 2012 3:06 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Yes; ever since D/P, I have bought the games on day of their release.

Doogle3097 March 4th, 2012 3:10 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
I pre-ordered mine from Amazon I think, and I'd hoped it would arrive on release day but it came on Saturday instead, so only the day after.

Hikamaru March 4th, 2012 3:13 PM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?

I played as the girl (Hilda) cos I like her design. And yes, I am a girl in reality - I always play as the girl in my games.

miltankRancher March 4th, 2012 3:33 PM

(i guess this counts as Day 2 already. We passed 12 AM here)

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?

I played as the guy. Its been a few years back (in Ruby) that I last played as the girl one. Always the boy nowadays. And yes, I am a real life guy.

Treecko March 4th, 2012 3:39 PM

[SIZE="a"]1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
No but almost did. I pre-ordered White a few months before but on the day of release date(March 6) , my dad couldn't take me out to Gamestop to pick it up. So I had to wait to March 7th to get it.[/SIZE]

blue March 4th, 2012 3:42 PM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?

I chose the opposite gender and went for a girl this time. I thought why not mix it up and after all it's a new game, new adventure, new gender!

Miss Doronjo March 4th, 2012 3:42 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

Indeed I did; I did not want to wait 5 weeks for my walmart to restock on the merchandise when it was sold out, so I bought my copy of Pokemon White on the first day to beat the line up.

ChibiNinja March 4th, 2012 5:59 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

No, I never have the money and never really go anywhere, so I ended up getting it about a month too late to get Victini.

Astinus March 4th, 2012 6:27 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

Yes I did. I was looking forward to those games, and I had the day off from work. So I headed out to a local GameStop where I had pre-ordered them and got both Black and White.

The first day isn't over yet you guys! It ends in just under 2.5 hours from now. Just to alleviate any further confusion for people for the next 30 days.

Mr. Magius March 4th, 2012 6:40 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Nope! I'd already seen so much screenshots and leakage that I wasn't too enthralled to buy the games. I also didn't have much money at the time of the release. I actually just recently bought them, and I kinda regret missing out!

Since I'm confused about the 1 & 2's everyone's posting, is it ok if I just post two q&a's in one post? :P

:] 2 Birds, 1 Stone


Anyways:

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Nope, I actually just got it in November. Reason being I didn't think it'd be all that different from the past games. I finally caved all because I wanted a Multiscale Dragonite..

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
I usually play as a boy, since, you know, I'm a guy. But on a recent Nuzlocke run through Diamond, I decided to play as the girl :P

Oryx March 4th, 2012 7:11 PM

Uh, what was confusing about my last post? o_O I said "the first day isn't over yet", that seems like the most straightforward way to say that and I can't think of a clearer way to put it lol.

The second day's questions start at 12:00AM Eastern Time, or in 1 hour, 50 minutes

Anyone's who's already answered two not like it's a big deal, but I'm trying to clear up the confusion because people posting the next number before it actually switches over is obviously starting to confuse everybody as to which question is the right one to answer today.

Jellicent♀ March 4th, 2012 7:15 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

Yes, yes I did. I was way too excited about the team I had planned out to NOT get it. Mom got it for me as an early graduation gift, so it made it a little sweeter.

Clacla March 4th, 2012 7:20 PM

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?

No, they didn't look to appealing, I never bought them, although I borrowed my cousin's xD

vaporeon7 March 4th, 2012 10:13 PM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
In my White I played as a boy, which is what I am in real life. In my Black I played as a girl, because I can.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ March 4th, 2012 11:39 PM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
Girl, despite her being a fashion disaster this time around. The opposite gender of my RL gender, but I've played as the girl since Crystal, so it would actually feel weirder if I didn't play as the female...

FedoraCladLad March 4th, 2012 11:56 PM

Oh gosh I'm so late for this but I'll answer both questions for the days I've missed.

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
I did buy it on launch date. Me and my friend walked down to the GameStop in the almost rain after preordering it. I was dressed all in Black, with my white DS Lite and picked up Black, while my friend was fully dressed in White, with his black DS Lite and picked up White. Fun times.

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
I played as a boy, because it matches my gender in real life. Plus, it's a huge step up from the hats of the last two generations. The beret on Lucas looked silly and I don't even know what Brendan was wearing.

mothman March 5th, 2012 12:47 AM

I'll do these anwsers even though it just started yesterday.

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
Nope, I didn't. I got White a week after the games released and then I bought Black 3 months later.

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
I played as the girl cause I am a girl in real life. (Although I played as the guy in Sapphire once.) Not a big fan of the girl's design, though.

Cazzef March 5th, 2012 1:42 AM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
 
I'm late as well! Oh well...

I'll just quickly answer the first question, I didn't buy it when it came out, I never had a DS, by May 2011 I got a 3DS and bought Black, finished it and obtained all Pokemon (Thanks to PC!) and traded it off, I'll never trade Black 2 once I get it though.

Now...
I played as the Male, I always pick male anyway (I am one), I never really thought about using the female, ever.

Ho-Oh March 5th, 2012 1:46 AM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl?
I played as a girl. :3 As a female I tend to side with being a girl, plus I loved Hilda's design, whereas Hilbert's was... ugly. ;x

PlatinumDude March 5th, 2012 1:56 AM

Day 2: What gender did you play as? Did it match your gender in reality?

I played as the boy because, well, I'm a guy in the real world.

zantetsu122 March 5th, 2012 2:05 AM

Did you play as a boy or a girl?
I like playing as a Girl in games. Hilbert sux as a name lolol.

Saturated Hue March 5th, 2012 3:17 AM

I didn't think Hilbert's design was all that bad. :x I did play as Hilda, though, and it does match my gender IRL.

GhostQuill March 5th, 2012 3:39 AM

Day 2: What gender did you play as? Did it match your gender in reality?

As a boy. Because to play like that I can just spam A and not pay attention, plus it's my irl gender

Otherworld9) March 5th, 2012 3:43 AM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?

A girl, and yes, it did match my gender in reality. I'm not much into playing my opposite gender since..well, for some odd reason, I'm not much into the experience.

Awesome. March 5th, 2012 4:00 AM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
I start my first run as a boy; my gender. And the girl on the second run(if I do one)

Joshawott March 5th, 2012 4:06 AM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?

I played as a boy, so yes, it did match my gender in reality. That's what I typically do when playing through Pokémon games, but there are times in which I'll mix things up a bit and play as a girl.

DARKSHADE March 5th, 2012 4:09 AM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?

A boy, it's been tradition since I was 3, I stick with all caps in my name too. =P
I am male, so yes it did.
The only time I've ever played as a girl (Aside from when temporarily helping a friend)
Is in my Japanese version of Pokemon Crystal.

Bluerang1 March 5th, 2012 4:17 AM

Apologies, I thought the days matched those of the week so I tried to catch-up >!<

Yoshikko March 5th, 2012 4:51 AM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
A girl, normally I don't really care, I just pick the one I like the most. Or dislike the least, in BW's case lol.

Virtual Headache March 5th, 2012 6:08 AM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
I'm a girl and play as a girl. I've always played as a girl in every game ever since we have been able to choose.

Miss Doronjo March 5th, 2012 7:23 AM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?


I played as a girl despite being a boy. o3o
IDK, Hilbert's design reminded me of Lucas, and I didn't like Lucas that much, so Hilda it was!

Eucliffe March 5th, 2012 8:09 AM

Araa, I suppose I should do this~

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
I bought both! I had Black reserved at GameStop already and I had a Best Buy gift card that could totally afford me White, so I figured "Why not?" and got them about 20 minutes apart~

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
In my imported and English versions of Black, I played as a girl; in White I played as a boy. I honestly like going back and forth between genders 'cause it's more fun that way~ Also I like both Touko's and Touya's designs so yeah XD;

Malkaz March 5th, 2012 8:25 AM

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?

Yes, I'm a boy. And if it's possible I'm always playing as a male :)

I have always played as a boy in ALL games that I play. And yes, it does match my gender in real life. d:

I played as both boy and girl but mostly boy and it matches my gender in reality.

I played as a boy. The only time I haven't played as a boy was Diamond, I like Dawn's design more than Lucas.

I play as the girl, and for some odd reason; I play better when I'm the opposite gender...no idea why.

DAMN YOU TOUJOURS! CREDIT ME NEXT TIME YOU DO ONE OF THESE MMMKAY!? Nah... just kidding. We're cool. We're cool. Let's do this!

1. Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
I did not buy my Black version on its release date. In fact, I think I didn't get it for a few months after it came out... mainly because I didn't realise it had been released for ages. In fact, it was my roommate who told me about its existence, and even then I waited about 2 weeks after that! Oh well.

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
I don't think I've ever played as a girl in any of my games. I know, I know: raving misogynist roaming the boards. Maybe in one of the next games that I play I'll just feel all different and play as a girl.

2. I picked the Boy for some reason.

I don't know why....

I played as a boy of course. I'm a boy after all. The girl looked cute though...

2. Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
I played as a boy. Yes it matches my real life sex and gender (gender is what you identify yourself as by the way, sex is the biological thing).

3. What did you think of Nuvema town? Too small? Should they have switched it up with a different kind of town than previous games?
Honestly, I'm sick of all the Pokemon games having your character start out in some small town in the middle of nowhere. Nuvema Town didn't stick out to me as being especially bad, but it was the completely generic and forgettable small starter town that's been overused. I would like my protagonist to be from a larger and well-known city, because big metro areas are my RL preference. I've got firsthand experience with small town life, and I hate it.

Well its not really interesting at all, neither are the other towns in previous GEN's, you never really visit them often. I would like the starting town (and other certain towns that lack features) to be a bit more 'interactive' if that makes sense.

Nuvema town is the epitome of the boring town. I mean, not much happened here, and is not really memorable at all. (I had to go to Bulbapedia and see which of the towns are Nuvema.) Since we entered a new era, why not switch it to a more lively town? Like Castelia, seeing as Unova seemed to be advanced in technology. Why not the starting town also>

I think it was alright, the only houses belonged to the protagonist, Cheren and Bianca so it was a little small. I don't think it needed a change.

Day 3: What did you think of Nuvema town? Too small? Should they have switched it up with a different kind of town than previous games?

To me, Nuvema was just like an ordinary starting town--being in a calm setting, having the player's and rival's houses and the Professor's lab. It didn't really have anything special.

I think they could've changed things a notch by having the player start at a bigger city, like Nimbasa.

Like the other starting towns, Nuvema Town seemed boring and there is nothing to do other then battle Bianca post-game and recieve a starter. I guess it would be a bit nicer if there were more people to interact with but Nuvema is just an ordinary town. There's nothing special about it.

3. What did you think of Nuvema Town?

Pretty boring, tbh. I loved the visuals of Koromori and uhhhh I'm sure there were more--Woobat, lol, I'm unintentionally getting in the spirit of B2/W2. But yeah! It was small much like the other hometowns and it definitely had potential for more, sadly. :( Interesting beginning though with the present :3

I don't really care for it, its nice and all, but that's it
Your average first town

3. What did you think of Nuvema town? Too small? Should they have switched it up with a different kind of town than previous games?
I thought it was pretty ordinary. It didn't stand out anymore than any other starting town. Not even a catchy tune like Accumula Town.

They got it just right, infact any bigger and it wouldn't have felt like a home town.

3. What did you think of Nuvema town? Too small? Should they have switched it up with a different kind of town than previous games?
I think Nuevma town is not really small so I do not think they should switch it up. In fact, it is just a beginning so there is not need for a big town.

Sweet Candace March 6th, 2012 5:41 AM

3. What did you think of Nuvema town? Too small? Should they have switched it up with a different kind of town than previous games?

I thought it was okay. I always liked the Lab being in the same town you start in, so that was the thing I liked about Nuvema Town.

Lunafloon March 6th, 2012 6:43 AM

Did you buy Black/White on its release date (in your country)? Why or why not?
I did not, as I had no money at the time... But I did buy both Black and White last September after my birthday!

Did you play as a boy or a girl? Did it match your gender in reality?
I played as a boy, and I'm a girl in reality. I just like Hilberts design better than Hildas.

What did you think of Nuvema town? Too small? Should they have switched it up with a different kind of town than previous games?
I didn't really pay much attention to the size... I think it could have done with something to make it more memorable, but overall it was fine for a starter town.

3. What did you think of Nuvema town? Too small? Should they have switched it up with a different kind of town than previous games?
I think the fact that I can't even remember what it looked/was like says enough about how I think of it lmao. I don't even remember how far along Nuvema town was lol.

Mr Cat Dog March 6th, 2012 8:20 AM

Wait, which one was Nuvema Town again? Off to Bulbapedia to check...

Awesome. March 6th, 2012 12:35 PM

3. What did you think of Nuvema Town? Too small? Should they have switched it up with a different kind of town than previous game?
The fact that I can't remember what it looks like should be enough of an answer.

As with all other hometowns in the series, I was regarded with a very warm welcome into Nuvema Town. Despite the games only having been out for a little over a year now, it still manages to hit me hard with nostalgia.

The size of the town was never really an issue for me, nor has it ever been in the series. That being said, it did feel rather odd having a house square in the center of town. That's but one minor complaint I have with it. One thing I really liked about Nuvema Town was its overlook of the ocean; a nice homage to the first two generation games. I like the hometowns just the way they are. :D

I actually liked Nuvema Town. It had that fresh feel to it.
