5th Gen Black or White?

[Captain Gizmo]

Which version of the game did you purchase?
Did you buy both or only one?
Is there any reason you picked that one, or was it completely random?

I bought black and black2 i born in NYC its a game about NY so it should be in a urban setting

 

[Hikamaru]

I did get both Black and White but Black is my main version of the two.

The main reason I picked Black over White was due to me liking the version exclusives better than White's. (I just had to have Reshiram and Gothitelle!)

White.
I initially got Black, then repurchased White.

 

[SoraTheTruth]

i bought White because Zekrom looked cooler than Reshiram to me during the time

 

[Captain Gizmo]

I got White, but I actually didn't buy the game. My girlfriend got it for me for Christmas, but it's good because she knew I liked White better than Black :P

I got White Version, based on the premise that if my cousin ended up getting a 5th gen game, he was going to get Black (we usually play through at the same time, but aside from HG/SS, we always seemed to have the same version, so I figured it would be best to go with the opposite of him).

I bought White, but I regretted it after I beat it because the city in Black just seemed so much more appealing than the forest.

Got white because I thought everyone else would get black. Plus Zekrom's types are better than just having a lame Fire Breathing Dragon.

I got pokemon black because my friends told me it was the better choice. I don't regret it :3

 

[Device-Sasuke]

I got Black because I totally love Reshiram! I was annoyed that you couldn't get Braviary without trading though.

 

[Starry Windy]

I got White and I like it because of White Forest, Reuniclus and Braviary. I like Black too for futuristic settings of Opelucid City, so I picked both.

I purchased Pokemon Black for a reason I can't seem to remember.

 

[liskinsforwins]

I got white because I liked the look of Zekrom. Still not sure why the Black legendary was in the White game, but I suppose that's just another mystery set down by the PokeDevelopers.

 

[Yuoaman]

I got Black, and in turn Black 2, because I preferred the technological focus over the nature one - simple as that.

 

[pikakitten]

I chose black because I prefered Reshiram but I didn't spoil too much about the game to know that White had more of my favorite pokemon :P xD

 

[Firox]

I couldn't find Pokemon Pearl today, I decided to buy White version, I already have Black 2, and wanted to buy the original Unova game, so I went with White.

 

[ArcanineIsDaBomb]

I bought white, and white only! I went with it mainly based on the version exclusives. I preferred zekrom to reshiram, and I desperately wanted a reuniclus, (and hated gothitelle) and I think I didn't really care about the other version exclusives XD. Now I wish I had thought it through better!

White, because, you know, Braviary. Gotta get one of my favorite Pokemon ever. I didn't even get Black until about a year ago.

 

[Meganium]

I bought White because I was curious about White Forest. When it said that you'd find some rare Pokemon there, I just gotta find out which ones. xD
