Dero's back in da haus! :V

tl;dr warning.

I finally attempted the Elite Four and beat the main story in Black yesterday, and while the ending was really great in almost all perspectives (the boss fights were all a bit weak though), I came to notice one of the largest examples of BW's biggest flaw; the uneven level planning.

I've encountered it before, but the problem made it self clear immediately after the Elite Four.
By the overpowered wave, coming down and smacking my face.

I was really prepared for the toughest of battles, with a full six Pokémon team in their mid fifties at the end of the story. And even though I like a challenge, battling level 65 trainers right after that is a huge leap, and I can really not see what they were thinking.
The wild Pokémon almost reach around that level too, and catching Pokémon around the sixties only makes me depressed about training my own Pokémon from scratch for so long, only to see them being outclassed by the freshly caught lv 70 Volcarona that I got with a Quick Ball (I thought you had to train the lv 1 Larvesta to get your hands on that beast D: ). The game is still very enjoyable, but it just just feels so annoying and unnecessary.

...


Wow. That was a rant O_o

To be completely fair, most of those trainers have really weak Pokemon anyway. Going from route 11 to 15, it's not like "OH MY GOD FULLY EVOLVED POKEMON THAT WILL WRECK MY TEAM" high leveled Pokemon, but more of not fully evolved or relatively weak Pokemon that you have to deal with most of the time. If anything, with the way experience is calculated in this game, it can serve to be a good equalizer and good prep for when you rebattle the Elite Four, rivals, or the other two special trainers in this game.

Then again, I just imported my lv. 70s from HG, so I probably don't have a say in the whole level pacing.

So long as we're on the subject of Pokemon, I'm gonna need to trade my Zweilous and Haxorus back to White soon. Though I would like to get Zweilous close enough to level 64 so I can give Gaycheese a taste of his own medicine I don't really feel like training it anymore. Even if it would be relatively easy to do so.

When I wake up from a dream, I usually like, "oh, it was just a dream." And ten seconds after that my thoughts are going something like "... wait, what was I dreaming about, again...?"

I almost always forget what my dreams are about.

Yes Went, because Zeffy said he finds it weird to see a mod type like that. XD
