    Celebrities itself wasn't really the point I was trying to make though,I was only using it as an example of Jay Z and Kanye West because of the way they have their pants tucked in their shoes also as a form of style.

    As for the male character I've got a question for you,how exactly would you dress the original male protaganists if he were in his late teens? Understand I'm not coming at you I'm just trying to understand your views abit more

    It's possible. Yellow, Crystal, Emerald, and Platinum had new sprites. Maybe BW2's sprites have new animations?

    I hope the back sprites are less pixely, but making a new batch of back sprites for 649 pokemon + 649 shiny pokemon + a bunch of forms and gender differences is more work than zooming in 200% to make them look bigger.


    Good point,it really makes you wonder how would they take advantage of the 3DS hardware when it comes to the sprites,battling and just the whole in-game world to be precise

    I was really starting to get bored with the Pokemon games as it just got too tedious to just battle and battle and battle all the time to level up your Pokemon. Now they've ramped the story up by a factor of 10, overhauled the graphics, music, and the Pokemon themselves are truly unique compared to all the past Pokemon. The game reminds me more of the anime the way the characters interact now. Even the beginning cinematic had me wondering for a few seconds if I had bought another game until I saw the Pokemon on screen. Now it looks like they are gonna ramp it up even more. I'm so siked up for black and white 2!!!

    Hope all this "new" stuff means the game will feel and play like a new Pokemon game as well. Liking the new girl, wish the same can be said for the new guy.

    Ehhh... Okay, the girl looks pretty adorable, but the guy is a fashion disaster. Why wear shorts with spandex if you could wear pants, jeans, or sweats? The amount of extra work he has to do putting on those spandex irritates me. And his hair... He needs a haircut or a new hat.

    Agreed completely.

    I think I'm liking the new one a little better actually but I was definitely obsessing over "Hilda's" design too.

    Ok, this all looks pretty good. The only thing stopping me though, is that I have literally 99% of the pokedex on my black game, with the obvious exception of things like mew and deoxys, which I haven't managed to get yet.

    It's too much hassle to transfer them all over...

    kids nowdays have no sense of style nowdays and at this point i would like a choice of changing the clothes that a MC can ware and they don't have to be a lot of choices but then again i never liked the MC choices for male characters but at least most were stupid funny and over reacting of teens from that current time period.

    Well guys, I think Snivy, Tepig and Oshawott are pretty much confirmed for the Starters, as they are right up front by the trainers on the pre-order posters. Oh well, I'm a bit disappointed, but I guess we're not force to use the starters. Either way I'll be picking which ever version of the game has Lapras and Arcanine...and if they are on separate versions GameFreak will burn .

    I would still like more info on the game... I love Pokemon but this is looking to be more of a glorified expansion pack than anything... there has to be big changes to sell me on it.

    I don't know about you, but having a new cast, a new story, some new gym leaders, and new areas because the ENTIRE eastern side of Unova is under a giant glacier are pretty big changes. It's more than what we would have gotten if they made Pokemon Gray, the director's cut of Black and White.

    This is a huge change compared to if they just released Grey version! Considering the fact that a lot of us were only expecting Grey version rather some a sequel, I don't know what people were expecting from this really.

    Either way, us hardcore Poke'Fans will be picking this up without question (you all know who you are ).
