5th Gen Version Exclusives

[rocky505]

Will they change, Stay the same or get mixed up a bit. I am thinking some will stay the same while some switch. You can also discuss White Forest/Black City & how they'll be handled, as well as Opelucid, and any other exclusives you can think of.


Ones I see staying the same are.
Rufflet
Vullaby
Solosis
Gothita
Petilil
Cottonee

these are just the main ones

New ones
Heatmor
Durant

Interesting question,

Sawk & Throh may be split i.e Throh for White 2 and Sawk for Black 2.

I would assume that there'd be some sort of switcheroo to help distinguish the sequels from the originals. As for which critters that would actually affect, I haven't the foggiest. To me, it always feels particularly arbitrary as to which ones are found in which version, so to try and untangle the methodology behind it would be like staring into a black hole, for me personally. :P

Instead of a specific version exclusive thread (and the fact that anything else covering version exclusives isn't made yet - and if it were, specifically not including the Pokemon seems kind of strange), I'm going to throw this open to discussing all forms of version exclusives. This includes White City/Black Forest, Opelucid City & so on. :) Just going to edit into the first post and then be on my way, oh but first:

Maybe the Pokemon could kinda follow their legendary, and do a swap thing (for those who want the game for the legendary and not the "name"). As for White Forest/Black City, they could also potentially do a swap, or not exist at all, creating two new "exclusive places" or getting a backstory on White City in Black 2, and a backstory on Black Forest in White 2? And for Opelucid, maybe it'll be in reverse, too. Maybe there will be a new set of "truths" and "ideals" which will be specialised in one version?

...yes I'm aware I kept saying White City, I don't feel like editing it now so try to make sense of that, you know what I mean! Actually y'know, THEY could be reversed, and it literally could be called Black Forest and White City--omfg I can just visualise that. WANT WANT WANT.

Good Idea Forever. I hope they make BC/WF capable with Wi-Fi since not everyone has buddies close by with the opposite game. Maybe they would add new Pokemon to catch/Battle in BC/WF such as Gible/Garchomp.
