Just cause it hasn't been announced doesn't mean it won't exist.

Why, too many angry E-mails from PETA?

Edit: Also, remember when Pokemon sites got an E-mail from "Nintendo" to take down all their Black & White pictures, then it turned out to be a hoax. For all we know, the claim there won't be a third is another hoax.

**xealix** · 03-4-2011, 01:49 PM

Honestly never found waiting for the third to be worth it really. A couple hours more of story and a few extra Pokemon just has never been worth the late start to me. You can usually end up getting everything you need anyways. Also i would consider Pokemon to be a very real RPG, as it can be played quite competitively if you know what you are doing. Its actually a lot more complex than people think it is. Take some time to read about effort value training, catch rates, rare hold rates, Pokenatures and moods, and now with dream world abilities and triple battles. Yeah it can be very complex. It is quite real despite its kiddie nature.

Oh i also left out egg types and breeding bonuses for people who breed, good way to get a lot of Pokemon over WiFi trades. You would be surprised what people will trade for some basic Pokemon.

Picked up white and im enjoying it so far. got my celebi and getting my victini now. Work tomorrow but ill probably put some hardcore hours into it afterwards.

**T-Force** · 03-7-2011, 01:57 AM

Got my copy of Black, somehow found a Wi-fi spot for the Liberty Pass and caught 2 level 4's on Route 1. It's been so long.. I forgot what it's like playing with Normal types. x]

Update: Transfered all three shiny dogs over, also got Victini. Going to Catch Zoroark and receive Zorua shortly. So how is everyone liking the new game? Same ol' stuff?

**Staiain** · 03-7-2011, 07:29 AM

Forgot about the dogs :\

But I got that Liberty Pass, dunno how to get Celebi tho

**phe0nixblade** · 03-7-2011, 08:10 AM

Gamestop. They'll be doing the distribution for a little bit longer.

**igotrhythm** · 03-7-2011, 12:57 PM

IIRC, the American Celebi event ends today.

I only have one DS, so transferring the shiny dogs is going to be a pain in the neck for me, but I still have some minor victories: Jolly Sandile, bitches. Max out its Speed EVs and slap a Choice Scarf on that bad boy when it turns to Krookodile: Suddenly it outruns an unboosted Ninjask of the same level. 8)

Norsk · 03-7-2011, 01:01 PM

Today? Damn. Speaking of EV, I can't wait for the next competitions. 8 dudes crammed in a van on a road trip? Ripe.

**chocobothief12** · 03-7-2011, 04:22 PM

My friend code is 1978-9490-1636
going for 4th badge and have tomorrow off. Game is interesting enough to me. The levels dont really jump much from place to place like other versions but everything still hits hard as hell.

**Staiain** · 03-7-2011, 04:42 PM

Where do I see the friend code haha

**chocobothief12** · 03-7-2011, 04:55 PM

go to your pal pad after you connect to wifi and click (your names) friend code

**ninjaKIWI** · 03-7-2011, 05:07 PM

Crosspost.

I've pretty much stopped liking Pokemon in general. They were awesome games, but now they're just far too simple (I'm not saying they weren't always, I just need more out of a game now). There's no substance to a Pokemon game. "Beat these trainers. Grind. Beat the gym leader. Repeat". It takes more than that for me to like turn-based strategy games. Like some strategy, other than Water beats Fire.

You obviously haven't delved very deep into the games to make such a false statement.

**chocobothief12** · 03-7-2011, 05:19 PM

Or you could always play Advanced Wars instead of Pokemon if you want strategy

I've been playing the pokemon games for years, 100% completion on Red/blue/yellow/Silver/gold/fire red, I even EV trained my teams for a while. Enlighten me on what I've missed.
