What are you doing in Preparation for BW?

[Bulletproof Scales]

I'm trying to take a break but end up theorycrafting gen 5 teams instead...

 

[Hunter Blade]

Staying away from updates on new details. I don't want more spoiled than what I've already ruined for myself.

 

[Synthesis]

Checking everything out on PO.

 

[Neil211]

Playing Pokemon online for hours and hours to test out an all gen 5 team:banana:

 

[Emboar]

All thats left for me its to camp outside the game store.

 

[shinycollector]

As for me, I'll EV my good IVd Shiny Raikou :yawn:
I have my team set out, and I've hard if you're good at random battling, I could get myself invited to a few tournaments... HeHe!

 

[Umbramatic]

Just got shiny Suicune on four of my five games; I actually forgot to download it to SoulSilver, so I'm going to go back sometime this week.

Now I just need Celebi... Not to mention I have to nickname my Pokemon and delete their HM moves.

 

[M Block]

What am I doing?

I transferred all of my Pokémon from my copy of Emerald over, and I started over so I could do a nuzlocke run of the game. How is that preparing? Well, I'm getting myself pumped up for Black and White's release. Of course, I kinda failed in that regard, since I'm already up to the Mossdeep gym (I started my nuzlocke run four days ago, and I've only had four casualties).

 

[DannyDistraught]

I'm training my pokemon in SoulSilver into what may be my team to use in White, post-story. I'll probably add some generation V pokemon into the fray.

 

[Keldeo]

I'm EVing some of my shiny legends and planning to get decent IV and natures for ones that I need.

 

[Magnus Newman]

I am simply playing Platinum version.

 

[NoirTHECHA]

I've decided to do some shiny hunting in preparation for black version. I've never really hunted shinies so it's kinda fun. I usually have gotten them from friends(unsure if they're legit) or just by random encounters while ev training. I actually the other day got a shiny illumise in a swarm while playing my Japanese white.

 

[Pokomum]

Not alot. Want to play them as virgin games and build from scratch as want to enjoy playing them as individual games. Leaving my HG pretty much as it is. Will maybe trade over any duplicate starters or legends that have traded or migrated and breed then trade over anything I have real difficulty getting ingame. Will probably change my mind though (well.....It's a womans perrogative...:-D)

 

[Umbramatic]

Just got that last shiny Suicune. I'm planning to preorder the games at Toys R Us, but I wasn't able to go today, so that will have to wait untill later.

And I still haven't nicknamed my Pokemon or deleted their HM moves. Plus, I need to teach them some move tutor moves...

 

[Blue1225]

Buyng every game that i've lost over the year, from Yellow-Ruby/Sapphire.

 

[scrambled_togepi]

Waiting anxiously for the american celebi event and caving in and getting HeartGold, despite already having SoulSilver, to occupy my time for a few weeks while I wait and get a few extras.

I plan on starting from scratch though so the only Pokemon I'm transferring are the shiny beasts and celebi (several of each for trading leverage).

BRING IT ON! :evil:

 

[Horatio]

I've been grouping together pokemon transfer at different stages as I earn my badges in White, as well as train up and breed some pokemon that I think will be useful during the game.

Outside of game related preparations I've been avoiding reading too much of the B+W news because I always get nervous that if I get too caught up in something before it's released I'll build up crazy expectations that it can never meet. But I've been watching a lot of Pokemon anime lately, and I'm super looking forward to going to the mall tour tomorrow to demo Black and White.

[The Power of Pika]

I already have the japanese white but I'm still preparing for the english black version I plan to get. Mainly just trying to pass time.

I'm completing my Japanese Pokemon whites pokedex mainly and hopefully have it finished by the time the english ones come out so I can play the english one fresh.
I have a 3DS on order however it's not going to come till way past BW release date.=/
So I'm going to have play the english one on my DSlite until my 3DS comes.

I'm doing alot of other things outside of Pokemon games to pass time aswell like working towards getting a better job.

Watching Pokemon episodes on TV that is on every week.
Watching Pokemon DVD's.

Getting into Dinosaur King and watching the show on DVD and playing the one DS game ever released in Australia of it.XP

Getting into other cartoons aswell.

Playing my PSP and messing with downloads like Pokemon music from itunes and creating Pokemon background for it. (Just because it's a PSP doesn't mean I can't make it Pokemon themed.XD)
Also playing some games and purchasing from the PSN shop.

Listening to my CD's.

I have alot to keep me occupied until the english release actually. Time is moving very fast.=)
