It was supposed to launch on March 30th! So we had no idea when it would be launching, but what ever was posted regarding the 13th was taken down really quickly, I am assuming that maybe they didn't want to announce anything just yet. Or maybe another earthquake happened and they are conserving power. Seems like its coming sooner rather than later and they just did not want to announce it for Wednesday just yet. .

I'm actually feeling rather let down by this game already. It feels like the same game I've played the past decade and there is not a sense of things being streamlined or sped up at all like I'd heard. In fact some things feel slower. And sure it's all new pokemon, but there are so few in each area that I'm already tired of them with that super high encounter rate. I would have rather had a mixing in of old ones along with the new ones to make for better variety. With nearly 700 monsters out there you'd think that we wouldn't be getting sick of seeing the same monsters over and over again a decade later.

Still going to slog through the game for my sister's sake and also in hopes that the game gets better real fast but I've lost steam and I'm just at the second gym.

Sorry to hear that Stratos...

Anywho I was right, Nintendo just accidentally put up the release of the global link on accident. It is indeed coming this Wednesday.

Hey Shaymin, maybe you can help me out. I'm sure others may have this question as well.

I just found one Pokemon in the dream world, it is on my board. The Rainbow Road to the dream areas are blocked, how can I send my Pokemon back to entra link without waking my pokemon and having to wait for an entire day to get back in there?

Nevermind I figured it out. If you would like to go to the Pokemon Dream World which was released just like I said it would have been, it is pretty easy to sign up at http://en.pokemon-gl.com/
 
From there use your C-GEAR and Game SYNC then you are on your way.
 
NOTE: If you want to keep searching for pokemon during the course of your 1 hour time limit do NOT throw the berry into the tree until you are ready to take a Pokemon home. You may only take ONE Pokemon home per day.

Did you start your wifi settings with DSL/i and now you are playing with a 3DS?

There aren't any types that are universally strong, as anyone would tell you. As long as you have a variety of types with adjusted moves and as long as no more than two or three share weaknesses, you'll fare well.
This is where I would write something witty or funny if I had any ideas.

Nah just keep going until you have great diversity in the types, you see something you like just go for it. Though you'll find allot less water Pokemon during your first run through.
 
Just make sure you have a BUG and/or a Dark type by the time you reach the Pokemon League. And the bugs in this game are killer, any one of them will do you good.

Can I receive an older starter through trading now or do I have to wait until I beat the elite 4? I'm really disliking my starter and none of the others this gen are terribly appealing either.

I've found a few pokemon I'm becoming OK with and playing around in the Global Link is helping me warm up to the game. When do I find the Entree forest where I can get the stuff I'm sending to the game.

You'd have to arrange a trade with someone (either local or on wifi), but I don't believe there's anything stopping you from importing an old starter.

Once you have your C-GEAR go to wirless and you will see Entree link or something like that. You should already have it by one badge.

I mean how do I bring those things back to the game? Or am I blind and can't find it? Is it hidden? I want my fire pokemon!

~

Haha, I found it buried in the wireless mode. Got some gen 1&2 monsters which I find I need to better enjoy the newer games. It's funny how that works. Perhaps I'm just too latched onto my nostalgic memories. As far back as Emerald I've always felt more lost in pokemon games until an old pokemon appears from the first 2 gens. It even makes me reexamine some of the older ones I passed by using actively. Now really I just want to change my started and I'll be happy.

Can anyone trade me an old starter? I'll take any gen 1, or a Cyndaquil.

Either would be great. Though I'm guessing an egg is easier for you? I appreciate the help. Which one are you able to share with me? Honestly a Bulbasaur or Charmander would be best. A Bulbasaur would cover the replacement starter I want.

Toys r' us are giving away Pokemon eggs.

I don't have B&W,  I'm still burned out from Blue - Gold in the original I pick one up every once and a while and just end up stopping around the 3rd gym.

Quick question about the Dream World. I know you can only  go on there for 1 hour every 24 hours  but I take it all the old pokemon are on there and you just have to head to the right area to get them right? I mean there isn't any thing I can't get if I wait to get the game right?

You can't get any legendary pokemon from there. Those are like special events. I'm not sure if all Pokemon are in the dream world yet. Everything gets released in bits and pieces. Obviously the more points you get the more pokemon you are able to find. But just like the berries I was complaining about, which finally got released once our DW went up, Nintendo gradually is releasing Pokemon.

New Pokemon game to be announced next month in... Dengeki?
http://pokemonblackandwhite.net/?p=4532

I'll open the bidding at XD + Battle Revolution hybrid for Wii, to allow for the Unova Pokemon with Dream World abilities to be obtained legitimately. For a backup, since mainline games are usually exclusively revealed in CoroCoro, I'll say Mystery Dungeon 3.

Personally, I would love a new Pokemon Stadium. Black and White just came out and are doing excellently in sales, and we always get some kind of console battler shortly after the handheld games come out (Stadium, Stadium 2, Colosseum, XD, Battle Revolution).
This is where I would write something witty or funny if I had any ideas.

I just hope the quality is there. Some of the Pokemon models are terrible, and the battles are just soooooooooo slow in 3D. Pick up the pace and just make the Pokemon look a bit more alive.

Considering how alive they are in B&W (the animations are one of the highlights of the new games for me) I would think a 3D stadium game would also have better animations.

I picked Archon because it is a flying pokemon but it can't learn Fly! Whats up with that? Does it's evolved form learn it? Kinda with I got the fossil turtle.

Serebii has a list of all the pokemon found in each area of the dream world and how many points you have to have to get them to appear. I can get my precious Scyther at 7500 points. Got a ways to go.

The Dream World has certainly gotten me more interested in playing Black again. I'm starting to gain momentum but my team is a wreck. The DW pokemon I brought in are too weak at the moment and I have a lot of nich pokemon/types so basic elemental attacks are giving me trouble. I need to reevaluate my team. I have no water pokemon and I will need one for when I get Surf. Sawk is my strongest pokemon at 40 but he seems like the most logical choice to change out for a different monster.
