It was after I beat the game

I don't know if anyone already posted this, but Pokemon black and white sold over 1 million units in 24 hours and while this week's sales totals are still pending, it is speculated that number is between 2 and 4 million. It's already on pace to become the best-selling pokemon game of all time. Also, by comparison, Pokemon Heartgold/Soulsilver sold 1 million units in a week, not a day. Translation: you should probably buy it

At this time I'm in Pinwheel Forest, trying to catch Pansage and the fire Pan one, but I can't seem to find them. -.-

I've bought it and playing it and sadly it's not what I actually had hoped for. It's so far not very inovating or changing from the previous games. Sure, the graphics have gone up a lot since the last gen, but for me gameplay > gfx any day, and the gameplay hasn't changed.

True, there is a whole new set of pokemon with names that are new and refreshing, but still you start with a fire/water/grass choice and 90% of the time you can guess what type it is and the remaining 10% you can overpower your opponent, similar to how it was in earlier versions.

So I'm actually missing the very big change that I've been waiting for since the release of the 3th gen, but maybe the game will have something in store on that part.

Nontherless, it's a pokemon game worthy of having the name and I'll still enjoy playing it as a relaxation game.

have you encountered one of the new battling systems yet? black has rotation battles, and white... has something else. xD;' you need at least four gym badges, i think -- the city after the fifth gym's city has a random town npc (in black it was Motorcyclist Charles, who looks strangely like Chuck Norris) who will teach you about the new battling system for your game. even though it was 'easy' to tell the types he was throwing out, the rotation threw me for a loop.

plus, you're also the first person to say anything about being able to overpower, haha. xD;' everyone else I know that's currently playing black or white has had to incessantly grind, myself included. =X

Nope, haven't got to that point yet, so I'll be looking forward to it.

I've had no need for a serious grind to get through. Even the first gym didn't prove a challenge (from some people I heard they had a difficult time there). Now with using the exp share all team members start to get between 20 and 30 (with my starter at 30).

=X how did you get xp share already? xD i've had to do the old school way (weak pokemon first, switch out instantly). i'm right about going to do the fifth gym, gotta get to team plasma before the leader'll battle.

the rotation battle was pretty fun. i'd rotate to send a water attack to his ground type, and he'd rotate to have it hit a grass type. xD very frustrating, and my pokemon were a few levels lower (about 27, 28 to his thirties) and i was down to my last two before i finally won. xD

edit: i posted 'fifth gym', i meant after the FOURTH gym. =X Sorry.

I'm with Blaze, while I definitely think they've upped the difficulty a little bit (I swear other trainers get crits when they shouldn't), it's still fairly easy. I've only had trouble on whatever the electric gym was, simply because I didn't have a ground or rock Pokemon with me at the time. Everything hasn't been too difficult (I even beat the ground/rock gym leader without taking any damage at all). Put an exp share and a lucky egg on your Pokemon, they help with leveling quite a bit.

Tbh, I can't exactly remember where I got exp share, but it was in the city with the bug gym (third badge I think). You did need to do something special for it. I'm not sure if it was bringing the three dancers together (I think you get amulet coin for that one).

[Hero]

You get the exp share from the big city (forgot the name, the one with 3D effects and what not). You need to go to some building and defeat some people until you get to a janitor, he gives it to you.

I also just read there's another one in Icirrus City. The president of the Pokemon Fan Club gives it to you if you show him a Pokemon that's been leveled up more than 20 times.

[Kami]

hero - what's a lucky egg? =[ Given item, or found?
Blaze - Huh... Yeah, the dancers give you an amulet coin, but... Ugh. >.< I didn't want to get the guide, I've done every other game without it, but... =S

[Hero]

It's an item that boosts the exp of the Pokemon who holds it. It drops of Chancey's in all the other guys, but Professor Juniper gives it to you in this one.

[Kami]

oh, ok. last thing she gave me was.... actually, i don't remember. xD i'm not too far into the game yet. =S

[Søren]

Anyone know how to transfer Pokemon from past games to Black?
