I thought it'd be nice to have a thread where people talked about things from some of the older generations that they thought were nice, that should've been kept. (in your opinion, of course.)

I'll even start out... I loved the PokeRadar, was definitely really good at hunting down shinies with it. Can't say that I'd dislike having it in B/W.

The Poketech was a pretty cool thing. Had a bunch of apps.
West, on a plane bound west
I see her stretching out below
Land, blessed mother land
The place where I was born

Scars, she’s got her scars
Sometimes it starts to worry me
Cause lose, I don’t want to lose
Sight of who we are

From the mountains high
To the wave-crashed coast
There’s a way to find
Better days I know

It’s been a long hard ride
Got a ways to go
This is still the place
That we all call home

Ability to travel to different regions
Old elite four set up.. The new one is HORRIBLE. All the elite four is made up of i mainly psychic, ghost, and dark.
Victory Road. B/W victory road is a joke.
Creativity with legendaries.
seems like all the legendaries are becoming more and more less creative, ex
1st Gen Trio Birds were very different from each other and even had some odd creativity in the names; ArticUNO, ZapaDOS, & MolTRES (Spanish for 1, 2, & 3)
The birds were very different physically but yet you still knew they were a group.
The new Tornados or whatever.. What a joke. They are exactly the same with different move sets and colors and no creativity.
AND FINALLY; A true rival. Gary vs Ash was so fun! Now you just have two annoying friends tagging along and annoying you every step of the way. Z doesnt put up much of a fight and overall isnt a challenge. (Along with your two friends)

but still i love the game just thought id tell you what i wish we still had :}

Vs. Seeker for me. I mean, there are trainers at the Nimbasa Stadium, but it gets boring facing the same Pokemon over and over again.

I had only two things on my mind:
Paul Newman and a ride home.

The Game Corner, cause I've always liked the slots and the Vs. Sneeker caused it helped leveling up. And the Safari Zone. Don't know whybut I've always liked the Safari Zone.

Pokéradar. (Yeah it was sort of broken in how many shinies you could get from it. Maybe making it auto-reset when you catch a shiny would fix that.)

Definitely agree with most of you... don't miss secret bases/the underground/Missingno.

Can't you buy items evolution stones in Black City? (White City, I'm guessing, for those with White instead of Black?)

...That's so not fair! I had to choose Black... Not only does White have Zekrom, but a forest with rare wild Pokemon? :'(
Rare, in B/W, not necessarily in general. It has Pokemon from Pidgey to Bagon to Magby depending on the people there.

Things that I miss:
-Touchpad usage
-Running shoes auto-on
-Follow Me feature

I miss all those things too, except the following pokemon. It was cute on yellow, but got old fast on hg/ss. I miss the simplicity of gen 1 when all you needed was 5 stats and no genders, but I did like the breeding in gen 2
oh my god! my account still exists in this kiddie pool? guess what! these mods you are all bowing down to? they're all kids themselves! I swear it's like a real adult working at burger world and bowing down to the acne faced dweeb that is doing his high school homework in his little office while yelling at you to clean out the grease trap! it's just a freaking game!!!! eventually you will all grow out of it!!! see you in the real world.

Vs. Seeker item, and ACTUAL LEGIT CONTESTS.

What are these Musicals, that are a sad excuse for a side attraction?! ;~;


Also, I was hoping they'd keep the partner Pokemon following you in B&W, and it didn't happen.

Hm...

The only things I miss would be the pokéathlon and the pokéradar >>
Oh, and I also miss the VS Seeker due to the fact that after the main game ends, the only trainers with pokémon lower than lv.60 would be the ferris wheel trainers.
Oh, and the underground.

Ability to travel to different regions
Only G/S/C/HG/SS had that ability.
As well as FrLg

AND FINALLY; A true rival. Gary vs Ash was so fun!
When will people realise that Games =/= Anime?
Gary isn't Blue/Green.

Old elite four set up.. The new one is HORRIBLE. All the elite four is made up of i mainly psychic, ghost, and dark.
What do you mean?
There's been four different setups before that.

Lv5 eggs
Level 5 newborns,
No offence, but I can't see why people would want lv.5 eggs back >>

Vs. Seeker, Poketch, Gym Leader rematches, and R/S/E style Secret Bases. I wouldn't mind a radio like that on the PokeGear either.

Auto lv. 100 6v6 wi-fi battles. While grinding to lv. 100 is extremely fun in this game (no joke), it would've been pretty convenient to keep that feature.

Speaking of which, I did kind of miss VS seeker and such at first, but then I found that if you know how to work the game right (Lucky Egg and Exp. Pass Power), you could get TRUCKLOADS of experience from the places stadiums and other powerful trainers. Moreso than the previous games and not have to deal with the annoyance of having to "recharge".
