Pokemon Black & White 2 [DS]

I think if I was playing at a championship and I heard this music blaring, I would stop playing entirely just to listen to it, much to the annoyance of my competitor. Bad move Game Freak!

Is it on the BW1 OST at all?

[Kuzu]

Don't know why it wouldn't be.

[ChaosRay]

Hm, wonder who'll be leading Team Plasma this time. It could be Ghetsis again, since the Shadow Triad will be in the game.

Hm, wonder who'll be leading Team Plasma this time. It could be Ghetsis again, since the Shadow Triad will be in the game.

And remember how he got the orbs for Sinnoh's dragon trio from generation 4 in the last game? It may be unlikely but I think that Cyrus might make a comeback.

[Salamander]

I think the orbs were just in as bonus items, but it's too early to call, I guess. A sign of how Ghetsis has his fingers in many pies. Yes, I think Ghetsis is quite likely to be the villain again, given that he never really got his just deserts before, and this time he won't even be pretending to be Mr. Nice Guy (not that anyone should've fallen for it - that costume just screams "megalomaniac"). Team Plasma won't have any kind of legitimate public role any more, they'll just be reduced to being a subversive terrorist organisation, stealing Pokemon for support and with their eyes on another legendary Pokemon. I mentioned this a few pages ago, but I suspect Ghetsis gets hold of Kyurem or at least manoeuvres it into play, uses his terrorist outrages to lure N and his dragon back, and achieves the fusion of Black/White Kyurem. Although whether that Pokemon is under his control or just running wild is anyone's guess.

Speaking of the Shadow Triad, I have a love/hate relationship with the theory that they're secretly the Striaton gym leaders. I think it's a dumb theory, but I also really want it to be true.

[Chaos Rush]

Probably this ones, they where unused in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald:

[media=]

That's not what they meant by "unreleased tracks". R/S had a soundtrack release, while Emerald didn't. There are songs in Emerald and Platinum that were never released on CD due to third versions never having a soundtrack release, so by "unreleased tracks" they mean songs like the Battle Frontier themes.

[Sean]

Some of Platinum's tracks made it onto the HG/SS soundtrack, I believe.

[Johnny Boy]

And to think that these games are gonna be released on Sonic's birthday.

[buba]

Guess who is back.

[Conando]

So it looks like N tries to stop Ghetsis with help from his Legendary Dragon. I'm going to guess that's what causes the Kyurem fusion.

lack of female BW2 trainer makes me sad

[buba]

Here is the new trailer with N and Ghetsis.

[Johnny Boy]

Ghetsis. We meet again.

[Sonictrainer]

It seems Skyla has returned and has a new gym design involving fans.

Oh boy massive spoilers, dude. Massive.

Oh boy massive spoilers, dude. Massive.

If there are massive spoilers, then why on Earth have you quoted the entire post?

[Johnny Boy]

I am loving the Kami trio's new forms. I'm now gonna actually use Tornadus once I transfer him over to black 2.

[Thrippa]

I hope they increase the availability of stones in the games. I had to transfer most of my Pokmon to B/W evolved and breed them, since I finished the game with a total of 2 Sun stones and 1 each Thunder, Shiny and Water. Allegedly I could get more in the Forest/City, but the City -if they are available - are ridiculously expensive, and the chances of any item in the Forest is very low. All I ever find in dust clouds are single-use gems and mole-mon. The Dream Radar may help, but not everyone has a 3DS.

[Octarine]

I have no idea why evolution stones have been so elusive since Gen II. I can understand needing to jump through hoops to evolve certain uncommon monsters or get the alternate form(e)s of legendaries, but why should it be a chore to evolve a Gloom if I want to?
