Elite Overlord LeSabre™ April 24th, 2012 6:50 AM

I'm kinda lukewarm about non Unovan Pokemon in general, but I'm definitely not feeling the whole "other regions legendaries in there" thing. There's no reason, storyline related that they should even be showing up, and Unova has its own share of legendaries that felt tacked on in B/W and need some story of some kind.

All the pokemon I have predicted has been revealed to be in game so far.

True. All I really remember of most legendaries in BW was that they each had this random storyline behind each and the stories were so varied from Victini living in some rich guy's basement to Landorus appearing only when you beat up his brothers only because he's the one to beat up his brothers, not you. I get what Game Freak was trying to do here and it was a unique experience but it was all jumbled up with no relations to the actual storyline like with Suicune and Eusine in G/HG/S/SS.
Though I disagree with feeling lukewarm about the non Unovans because they did it in HG/SS (well, after you beat Johto) and I liked it.

The birds have appeared in every generation as catcable Pokemon besides gen II (ironically seeing as they're in the Johto dex and are connected to Lugia), so I can see them reappearing once again.
I agree though that the native legends need some story updates first before they focus on other region's legends.

The birds have appeared too many times, can't GameFreak switch it up a bit now? :[

I could see the three legendary beasts making an appearance just so we could have another chance at getting Zoroark (and a new chance for those who didn't obtain one) though.

Captain Fabio April 25th, 2012 2:20 AM

I wouldn't mind the birds as such, but would still be nice to see something new.

Oh right I forgot that it lead to Zoroark, actually, if Zoroark isn't obtainable by events I'd like to see the breasts. Maybe they could be the new sorta Virizion/Terrakion/Cobalion, since the musketeers will have a more story-based role rather than an extra role, from what has been implied in the intro.

tj4bigred April 25th, 2012 6:19 AM

^ Haha, see the "breasts".

I hope Elekid is in it. As for legendaries, I am sick of the birds, and the beasts were in HGSS. I wouldn't mind some Sinnoh legends, such as Shaymin, Giratina, and Heatran.

Ho-Oh April 25th, 2012 6:22 AM

If anywhere, Shaymin might be found around Lacunosa tbh, considering how the Grace... thing is found there. Might seem relevant to have another area in the route just before it to get to Shaymin. :3 Don't know what relevance it'd have otherwise tbh.

I would like to see Zorua/Zoroark be available to catch without events. I wasn't able to get one...

Well possibly! Hopefully they are for you :3

Also is it just me or do I feel that Kanto and Hoenn Pokemon will specifically be concentrated on in B2W2's Pokedex? Kanto = what Unova is reflecting, sorta, while Hoenn = next in line basically, so ya.

I would LOVE that! Except I didn't like Heatran. It was ugly o.0

If they put Sinnoh legendaries in, especially Giratina, I would expect that they'd find some excuse to bring something with Team Galactic back, which as I had said before would be AWESOME. Other than that, I would enjoy the beasts being back. I always thought they looked more like cats though...anyway they're wanderers, so I can see GAME FREAK making something up on how they just happened to wander their way to Unova.

Non legendary pokes that I'd like to see are all of the dogs, including Zorua and Zoroark being non-event(I got one in a trade that someone bred) and Milotic. (Please just make Milotic easier to find! I spent like 3 hours total searching for that stupid thing in that little pond near the starter town.)

Assuming it's true it looks like Regigigas might be appearing in B2W2.

That scan may be fake as it has yet to appear in any news site outside of Youtube, also Mock Battles for videos =/= in the game or part of an Event. Look at the Keldeo event in Japan with the Movie release. Its a Download event that downloads the Pokemon into the game, but it shows a mock battle scene against Keldeo, but Mystery Gifts are picked up in the Pokemon Centers.

Will Smash be airing today? We could get something new if they are doing any news reports on B2W2.

I know, I'm not classing it as true just yet as I've checked Serebii and other sites who haven't reported upon this yet and yes we are getting something on Smash tonight IIRC.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ April 28th, 2012 10:45 AM

Ugh, if it's true, what sort of reason would Regigigas even have being in Unova? That's what I don't like about throwing in random legendary Pokemon that seem cool in a game. There's no other reason other than, "Hey guys, look who you can spend 25 Ultra Balls trying to catch!" It's something that GF has been very bad about doing as of late. Yes, many of them were placed in the games so players could complete the entire Pokedex with just 4th gen games, but it still seems completely out of place for legendaries to be running around outside of therir respective region.

★Midnight★ April 28th, 2012 12:07 PM

Those scans do look kinda fake...
Maybe Regigigas has something to do with the ice...? Like in movie 11. He was there to stop the bad guy, and there was tons of ice. Or if he's that strong, he'll probably move the ice. (I forgot where...it said he helped move the continents or something?) LOL, this is just my thinking...

ShadowStriatonTriad April 28th, 2012 12:58 PM

It's going to be akward and out of place to see Pokemon from previous generations in a generation 5 game; nonetheless, I'm looking forward to this game's release.

"Awkward"? How? Sure it might be a lot to take in (OMA Pigdey AND Starly together on Route 1!?) but, personally, I think it will be interesting to see all of them in one region and this way people can build their Dream Teams (or at least generations 1 to 2+5) without trading (a pain for me as my trades go just plain wrong wrong;I got a Dragonite named P----3rd) or cheats. This diversity of Pokemon means a harder challenge, Gyms/Trainers are more varied, people might actually battle online with non-legendary teams in B2/W2 online, and more Pokemon (at a good number-300[?].

P0kelegend April 28th, 2012 2:57 PM

The scan is real, it's from a bimonthly issue of Coro Coro. But it doesn't really confirm Regigigas because its probably a Wi-Fi battle they took screenshots of so they could have used any Pokemon, even ones not in the Unova dex. Although it wouldn't really make sense for them to use a Pokemon not in the Unova dex, but yeah it could be in or it might not be, nothings really confirmed.

pokemonpokemonpokemon59 April 28th, 2012 5:38 PM

More Pokemon Confirmed to Appear in the Unova Dex:
Keldeo
Ho-Oh
Sunkern
Magby
Koffing

Ho-oh was a Wifi Battle to show off Keldeo, so its most likely not in B2W2 as of yet.

Yeah, if the magazine didn't exactly say "Regigigas will be obtainable!" then we can't confirm it. Though, Regigigas seems like a very odd choice for just putting a random Pokemon in for a screenshot. I would have expected maybe one of the Unova starters, but Regigigas? Just seems a bit odd to me....

Xander Olivieri April 28th, 2012 8:39 PM

Why wasn't the Bi-Monthly one leaked already then if it has B2W2 info in it?




EDIT: OK so TOTALLY JUST noticed this....

Magnemite MAY be before the First Gym battle (Homika).....Steel Type before fighting a POISON Gym.
