I like the animations of the Pokemon -- makes them feel more lively.
Would be cool if in the next release they make Pokemon not only animate their standby pose, but also when they attack, get hurt or eat berries etc.

I like the attention to detail, especially the battle animations and scenery changes throughout the seasons.

The soundtracks and the seasonal differences between the tracks, I just love the accordion that plays on route 11 during the summer time. I also love the dive/underwater segment of the game. It brings back memories of the 3rd generation.

Yeah that's one of the best bridges really, the only issue is that you can't create your own angles and they aren't set in stone, lol :( Still a great feature though.

I keep forgetting about the seasons actually. XD; However! When I remember them, they are indeed awesome.

Yeahhhh I love that theme, I've only gone there a few times admittedly buuut still it's awesome to hear sometimes. :3

I also like how Iccirus is the only city where you can find wild Pokemon just by walking around.
Omg yes, the dragons were awesome, but amazingly annoying to escape when you wanted to heal yourself, ugh. XD; And Icirrus' is awesome too, I was jumping along those two side slopes for a few minutes at one point loool.

Yeah I was glad we didn't have to abuse HMs :x

Ooh I love the different music for the different areas + seasons, it really enhances the experience imo.

I'd add my own things but it would be a list that is waaaaaaaay too long. I'm just going to say however that I love basically everything about the games.

I love...
- that the heroes are actually older than the standard ten-year-olds of every other generation.
- that the Pokemon move around during the battle instead of a static view that we always had before.
- that the seasons change every month and cause the landscape of Unova to change with them.
- the fact that you don't become the Pokemon Champion during the main storyline, something I've been asking for since Gen 1.
- that they finally put in some unique, new combo types of Pokemon, like Fire/Psychic and Ghost/Ground.
- how many things there are to do every day in Unova, both daily and weekly events.
- how long the storyline took to complete. My play time to finish the main storyline the first time was at least three times longer than the time it took me to complete Platinum.
- the reduced amount of HMs compared to most other Gens.

And most of all, I LOVE that TMs no longer disappear on use--that you can use them as many times as you want to. Seriously, the best change to ever come to his game, imo. ^_^

What I love about Black & White

- Sprites moving in battle
- Seasons
- The graphics
- Reduced HM's
- The designs of Hilbert and Hilda
- The starters (especially Oshawott, as you see in my signature!)
- Reshiram and Zekrom
- Cheren and Bianca (I love their designs and I knew that Cheren was male)
- Reusable TM's
- The Gym Leaders (coolest designs ever, especially Elesa)
- The concept of Black & White resembling Yin & Yang

I love the time of day changing, though I wish the lighting and presentation was more like Gold and Silver. I also love when it snows, like in Sekka City.

I really like that the sprites are animated! Some are very cool, some very cute, and some downright funny (like Gamagaru and Muggyo).

I love the battle music when you fight Cheren or Bel. I think I associate with when I first started playing (sentimental value there) and I just like the fun sound of it. I love watching Mijumaru dancing around to it.

Oh gosh, I liked almost everything about BW :'D I really liked team plasma, the animations, the music, the new pokemons, the gym leaders especially Elesa and Skyla 'cause their designs are cute :3, N, Touko, FerrisWheelShipping :D, the seasons and how wild pokemons are affected by the seasons too, re-usable TMs, although it makes it harder to find them. D: I like everything about it I guess. xD;;

In HG/SS, I found the Pokeathelon was great fun, because we got to use our Pokemon in Races etc. and they really came alive. As for B&W, the battle subway was fun, but there's no real excitement that comes out of it. Exploring further and catching other Pokemon from the other regions was also great (I mean Dragonite and Milotic in the WILD?!), but as I said before, doesn't compare to the Pokeathelon or the Battle Frontier.

So yeah, what did YOU enjoy most in Pokemon Black and White?

I enjoyed using the new Pokemon and the game's storyline itself. I also enjoyed battling in the Battle Subway, despite it being a replacement for the Battle Tower.

I have to say the Zoroark Event and the Ferris Wheel during the Fall and Spring seasons. I was actually creeped out when the woman (Zoroark) attacked, blame creepy pasta.

I loved N's story. For me the castle at the end was the best part of the game - it felt so... epic. The story was great and was very well ended - would've loved to have seen more from N post league though!

I enjoyed the ending, the castle and the last two battles with N and Ghetis. I like Zekrom, but I am a huge Lugia person!

Since most of this discussion is leading towards anything you like about B/W I'm going to go ahead and merge it over to the things you like about the games thread. So now you can basically discuss everything you enjoyed and like within Black and White!

I like the Pokemon animations, the addition of Gems, Rotation battles, the fact that you can battle Cheren every day, many of the 5th Generation Pokemon, and I think Unova is a cool region. Theres lots of things I like about it. Its my favorite Pokemon game so far.

A few things I liked the fact each starter Pokémon had a special or signature move if you will from levels 15 to 17 Snivy, Tepig and Oshawott learning Leaf Tornado, Flame Charge and Razor Shell respectively. Another thing I liked was the fact the version mascots actual color design was different from the game, with Reshiram being white in color for Pokémon Black version and Zekrom being the opposite. The Pokémon animations in battle were also nice to see rather than just after being sent out I remember stopping for a few seconds atleast to see every Unova Pokémon's battle animation then again for all previous gen Pokémon after the national Pokédex.

I LOVED Skyarrow Bridge. It was wonderful, and I was amazed at it the first time I went over. In fact I like all the bridges. Not to mention Skyarrow Bridge is awesome for hatching eggs. Game Freak sure chose a great thing to showcase the new graphics in Black and White.
