That's probably a fishing spot.
If you fish there, you have a chance at getting something like a Milotic or even a Dragonite.

I see. Shame I don't have Surf or a fishing rod yet. =/
Lillipup is the cutest first-area-Pokemon ever.
Goddaamn
Hey look FC:
Name: Dakota
FC: 4598 8779 3731
@Cyan:
Literally just got the game.
Local's right: That is one resilient Wii.
Me and my friends were laughing about that as it happened.
@mdmartin101:
Pisses me off, you'd think they'd fix something like that, and I don't feel like screwing around with the security, my whole family uses the same wifi router.
@Badass:
Well apparently I do use WPA security. And DS and DSLite are not compatible with that. Only DSi. Le Sigh
This is always a problem for me too.
But I'm getting 3DS soon so I hope that is compatible.
Hey guys, hows it been. Well im at the 2nd gym and her 2nd Pokemon, (name escapes me) destroys my level 23 Pignite. Whats the best pokemon to get to begin the game, i hear the pokemon in this game are kinda weak all around. But which ones will help me the most now and down the road?
Current team (Now level-grinding off Audinos):
Oshawott Lv. 16
Pansear Lv. 14
Blitzle Lv. 10
Oshawott is bad until fifth gym.
Which is why I'm nabbing a Timburr the moment I get the chance.
Well I finished my day finishing the first gym…I did a good job raising my Lillipup from level 2...but it was one level below Cress' Panpour. The only bit of good news: at least my Tepig was able to withstand one Water Gun before delivering the finishing Tackle. One gym down...and a lot more grinding to go.
The Audinos.
I love them so.
Can someone please help me get that Celebi? I hate to sound needy but i want that Zorua
@Cyan:

Get yourself a Sawk, much better than Timburr.
First game that I decided to pick female instead of male. The boy trainer looks lame as hell
Really, i think the boy character has looked the best since the "Satoshi/Ash" looking one.
Man, I was gonna name the Heroine Bianca, and I was so proud of the name, till I found out the Girl Rival is automatically named that -_____- I caved and named the heroine Nicole.
Besides I can't stay mad at Bianca, she's so funny, and her battle music is awesome!
Got my copies of Black and White today before going into work. Just got back from work and I still haven't got the chance to play them, but I'll be rectifying that soon. I'll upload my FC's ASAP.
I abandoned all pretense of being responsible and played pokemon allll day.
It was my big binge. it'll be back down to bus trips from here on out, but yeah, its fun once again. I'd forgotten that gym leaders kick your ass initially and the need to grind for a couple levels and use weaknesses to narrowly deal with them, I've gotten so used to just fighting the elite 4 with ubers to grind.
I'm finding I'm rather liking a couple things I didn't expect to, purely because they're animated now, and they'll do something like twitch their tails or hop around or something, and it makes them fun. Like the patrats, which look hideous in the character art, are redeemed with their wagging tails… and the difference in their eye colors isn't as extreme.
Current team, just got past the third gym, on route 4.
[hide]
RAIGA. Shell blade is awesome.
YOKO. Was gonna name it Kamina, but she's a girl. Not really living up to my hopes yet, but its still got an evolution and a lotta moves to go.
TABUNNE. Regenerate is a lot of fun as an ability.
BLUES. (Was gonna name it Roll… then Rock... ended on BLUES.) Saved my but agains thte third gym leader's final critter.
DANCER. Pretty typical grass type so far.
And my sixth is currently rotating quite a bit.
It great because I'm enjoying all of these, and I still haven't even seen a lot of the things I knew in advance I wanted.

Got to 5th Town and the Cold Storage before Stopping.
Team
30 Dewott

I have a question. What pokemon in Black or White would represent Perona? Haha I feel like naming one after her! Thank you!

Obviously, Gothielle, the pre evolutions maybe XD even more, the first one specially.

Ok guys got my training items :D, going to EV train my first pokemons of this region, a Scrafty.
I'm at the second gym right now. My team isn't very good, though.
It's
Pignite lvl 21
Tympole lvl 20
Tranquill lvl 21
Bltzle lvl 17
Lillipup lvl 12 \
Filler until I get Deerling and Elgyem
Pansage levl 12 /
I really miss the VS Seeker. It would be so helpful for training.
is there actually an option for you to rebattle trainers? Or is this one of the obvious cuts that will be a selling point for the 3rd Game?
Anywho. Beat all 8 gyms now. Last one was surprisingly easy. Swapped out my Stoutland for the Rock/Flying fossil because I have Chopper for Normal STAB. Kinda made me sad considering Lillipup was my first capture and unlike most first routers it's pretty darn decent all the way.
Who needs other trainers when you have Audino.
Current team:
-Tepig (Ryoga): Lv. 18
-Lillipup (Cinnamon): Lv. 18
-A bunch of filler just sitting there just because (a Pansage for Cut, a Roggenrolla which…I have no idea why I got it but probably for Strength later, plus a Purrloin in my PC)
At this point in the game, I think I have the stupidest Tepig in history. If it weren't for it's building HP, it really isn't doing anything with a lot of the Pokemon I'm facing now. I don't really want to evolve it though. On the other hand, I really love my Lillipup. Aside cuteness, it essentially is destroying with Bite and Take Down. Trying to find anything else that could help and just building levels for the next gym.
I taught Lillipup strength. It gets STAB and Strength isn't THAT bad of a HM too.
And is it me or did Surf take a boost again this gen? 95 base attack…wasn't it 80 or 90 before?

HMs aren't needed, they are only used for side stuff, like secret items or zones with trainers.
Surf was always 95 base.
Dewott Lv. 23
Pansear Lv. 22
Blitzle (Wild Horse) Lv. 22
Timburr (Valentine) Lv. 22
Just got the Exp. Share.

Really now? Didn't you need cut for Dream Area thing?
And no Strength in Victory Road? That's just damn awesome.
You do need to use Cut, though, to get to the Munna mission with Team Plasma. That's the only reason why I kept Pansage around: since I don't want to waste Cut on a Pokemon I actually want to train. (that…and Pansage is the only one of my team that can use Cut for the time being)

Forgot to say that but yes thats the only storyline use for the HMs, atleast until the league.
Nope no Strenght or Flash on Victory Road, just for side quest stuff, you only need strenght there to get Terrakion after the league.
I don't need Cut after Dream Yard? That's great. I was worried, because I don't think anyone in my planned team could learn it
Anyway all of my team besides my filler Pokemon are over 20 with
Tranquill 24,
Pignite 24
Tympole 21
Blitzle 21
I'm fighting Bianca at the Route 4 gate right now.. Burgh is the only Gym leader I defeated on my first try so far.
I noticed the removed the Pokeball bag..
I like that the Pokemon's eyes close when they fall asleep.
I wish I'd have thought of naming my Tepig Ryoga xD Oh well, I'm fine with no nicknames for now.
If you want to change your Pignite's nickname, you can do so in Castelia city, The Name Rater lives in one of the houses by Route 4. I think it is one of the buildings to the Right near the start of Route 4. I accidently crashed into him yesterday.
Ive just got up to the town with the 4th gym leader and I am loving the game so far, I want to add a Minccino to my squad so my team isn't all big butchy monsters. xD
HMs aren't needed, they are only used for side stuff, like secret items or zones with trainers.
Really?Thats pretty good news.
It always irked me when a bidoof takes up a slot for the sake of cutting bushes and shrubs…
Anyway,the game feels fun.Sure,it's the same as before without any real changes to gameplay,but isn't that the charm of the game(capturing pokes,raising them..etc)
Still grinding before the 1st gym leader.Just gotten the fire monkey,but intending to grind a little more

Oh, I know. I'm just disappointed I didn't think of the name Maybe if I ever feel like it, I'll give them nicknames, but for now I don't want any.
So just beat the second gym leader and her Watchog. killed my Revolver (lvl 20 Dewott), Gutter Rat (lvl 19 Pidove) and Thunderhorse (lvl 17 Blitzle) but not before I paralyzed it and beat it to death with Hacksaw the Timburr (naturally named after the wrestler "Hacksaw"Jim Duggan since they both carry 2x4s).
just left Pinwheel forest and the lvl of my pokemon:
Revolver (lvl 24 Dewott)
Hacksaw (lvl 21 Timburr)
Akainu (lvl 21 Pansear)
Thunderhorse (lvl 20 Blitzle)
Gutter Rat (lvl 19 Pidove)
My current party:
-Audino
-Serfine
-Drillbur
-Swoobat
-Palpitoad
-Darumake
All lvl 27-ish.
I'm thinking about switching my Audino for Joltik.
I beat the E4 yesterday night.
Was it supposed to be this ridiculously easy to catch the legendary there? I didn't bother fighting it, so I just threw out the first ball my stylus could touch: Heal Ball. Got it with that first try.
Did I just get lucky or was it really supposed to be this easy?
Zekrom and Reshiram have the catch rate of an Onix plus you needed to catch them to advance the plot.
It was supposed to be easy.
Aah, I thought so.
Pfft, I feel like this game is going too easy on me. I figured it wouldn't be that hard to catch it, but after all you still should have the Master Ball in your pocket at that point. Oh well.
Alright, well I'm home sick today, so I'm working on my team before facing the second gym.
Shinhan(Sawk)Lv. 14
Talia(Woobat)Lv. 12
Gama(Tympole)Lv. 13
Tatum(Blitzle)Lv. 14
Krypto(Herdier)Lv.17
Trotsky(Pignite)Lv. 17
How's my team so far?
@Nia:
but after all you still should have the Master Ball in your pocket at that point.
You need to trade 50 Pokemon to get the Master Ball.
@Cyan:

Wait, what? I didn't trade a single Pokémon yet, but I still got the ball.
I just got the Master Ball from Juniper after beating 8th Gym.
@Nia:

I think he meant an extra one, he might not have understood you.
I gotta admit. Nintendo get major props for making Ice-Andross. I'm tempted to use the guy.

Lying-ass Bulbapedia.

It seems like what Straryu would be like if it was an ice type.
I'm disappointed it wasn't named Snowyu. Or Snowflakeyu.
On Route 7 heading off to Tower quest before 6th Gym.
33 Dewott
31 Simisear
32 Zebstrika

5th Gym was surprisingly easy.
3rd and 4th gave me hell. Especially 4th.
