I had 6 Pokémon over the level of 70, before I even went to the Pokémon league. But the encounter rate in B&W is ridiculous, so I ended up battling every Pokémon I saw. But then I found myself zooming through the league, then trotting right on through the rest of Unova and catching Kyurem, in one day. I think that there should have been a little more of an adventure after the league. I found Unova to be quite restricting in that sense, as there was little to discover after you finish the main quest.
However, I will admit that the level jump was quite strange, there's about 20 levels in the difference between the Pokémon league and Black City. I'm not entirely sure what the purpose there was, but I suppose that was Gamefreak's substitution for not having much of a long aftermath to the main story. By making you level grind for a bit afterwards. It's also a little unrealistic, once you beat the league, how there are so much stronger wild Pokémon, and a great deal of them not being from Unova. There should of have been another area you travel to, as surely you would have encountered one of the older generation Pokémon earlier in your quest, if they were simply a gatehouse distance away Opelucid City. I feel that this was simply due to laziness, in the games.
