I could never get the Pokeradar to work for me because even with the Repel trick, my chains would still get broken. These shining charms seems like it would guarantee an increase in shiny encounters without having to create a chain first. The Pokeradar still had a challenge and luck factor to it.

And now disregarding my earlier complaint about the new Unova dex, I quite like the variety now. Hmm... Octillery, I wonder if I should consider it just for something different.

Iris is the champion? AWESOME (I use that word far too much). I'm glad they have redeemed her in the games. And her VS sprite = instant win. Anyway, can't wait for this!!

I cannot wait until Fall. Is anyone else looking forward to battling Steven? And, does anyone know if Wally is going to come up?

None of the previous protagonists or rivals other than Red or Blue can be battled.

What? Seriously? That's dumb. I was really hoping to get to battle Hilda and Hilbert in the post-game. Perhaps Hilda in Black 2 and Hilbert in White 2, as another difference between the two versions.

They have a Memory Link that lets you transfer props to new games. I don't know why people want to make a specific gendered protagonist canon to one game when they can easily make your past adventure (i.e., being a boy or girl) affect your current version.

But again, missed opportunity.

Iris looks like Tiana from The Princess And The Frog wearing Rurimaru's Jellicent♀ BURST from Pokémon ReBURST...

Freakin' EPIC.

The positions of the Musketeer Trio and Kami Trio in the New Unova Pokédex look unusual. There seems to be no Generation I-IV Legendary Pokémon in the New Unova Pokédex which I thought there would be because there are 300 Pokémon in the Pokédex but I do know that there will be some available in Unova after defeating the Elite Four such as Regigigas and the Lake Trio. When Black 2 and White 2 were not announced yet and I was guessing that there would only be 1 game called Grey version and I thought that Opelucid City Gym would either include Drayden and Iris in a double battle like Tate and Liza or there would be a new gym leader and one of Drayden and Iris would become champion like in Emerald where Wallace was champion. After Black 2 and White 2 were announced I assumed that Opelucid City Gym would have the same gym leaders as Black and White respectively because there are 2 versions. I am happy that my second thought about Opelucid City Gym in this post is partly correct.

Yay! The wait is over.... For Japan.

Now I have to wait until it's released in the U.S. before I can actually play... Come on Fall! Hurry up and get here already!

Yeah, I get the feeling that the wait for the English release is going to be a very LONG one, and I'm not playing any "fan translations" cause those suck and always take too long.

We've got confirmation of a release in autumn this year (spring for the Southern Hemisphere), so it won't be that long.

I don't think Iris should have been champion. I think she is too young for such a position.

Because 11-year-old Blue makes more sense, right? I don't think there's an age limit for becoming a champion. :| Iris might be young, but she's obviously strong enough to be champion. Don't forget in White version, she's the last Gym Leader, as in the strongest Gym Leader. And in Black, she's Drayden's apprentice, yeah? Dragon trainers are shown to be very strong, so I'm sure Drayden's training would make her strong enough to be champion.

I think it's because of the anime that people think Iris is too young or not strong enough to be a champion.
Blue's anime counterpart, Gary, had a strong team. Iris in the anime only has Axew, Excadrill, and Emolga.
