In heart gold and soul sliver the pokemon could walk with you, but that feature isn't in Black and White. The reason is they started development on HG/SS on the D/P/PT engine while the were working on black and white.

it's funny how they did that pokewalking system in Pokemon YELLOW and never remade something about it. Dunno, something like "Thunder Yellow" or "Lightning Yellow"
It would be so cool to have the old times back...

Yellow is the worst pokemon game I ever played. That's the only game where its hard mode right from the start. Someone at Game Freak thought it was an awesome idea to give you a pikachu as your start we the first gym is rock.

Actually, Yellow is the only one where I have all 151 Pokémon.

Also, finally beat the Forest of Pain in G.U.
100% completion ftw.

@Tyler
if you're "techy" or know someone who's "techy" and you can trust, theres a way to take out the hard drive and put it in something that looks like a case with usb that acts as a connector and you can connect it thru usb to another pc (like the portable HDDs) and recover and transfer basically everything. thats what i did before (when the OS got corrupted) i did that before reformatting the hard drive, im just not knowledgable as to how exactly take out the hard drive in a laptop (because i never had one), so just ask someone you can trust to do it for you. but im sure it can also be done using the laptop.
Yeah that's my last resort plan. Right now I should be able to get it back up and running if I ever get a Windows 7 installation disk so I can rebuild the main boot sector or whatever.

@Spade, I loved Pokemon Yellow and I never found the first gym that hard. I normally would catch a Caterpie and train it into a Butterfree and kick Onix's ass with Confusion. Actually I always considered Yellow easier than Blue/Red.

yellow was cool because you could get all three starters later on in the game unlike the others, they should have remade yellow and blue versions in my opinion

Yeah, they only remade Red and Green. Strangely, programmers always prefer some Pokemon...I wonder why the hell didn't they make something for Entei, that is more important than Suicune, being included in a movie for first.

Meaning? Both Raikou and Suicune were in movies aswell. And Suicune was also the first pokémon Ash saw in Johto.

and Entei was the first of those three dogs to appear in a Movie (Movie 3, Raikou only had a special episode I remember, and Suicune was protagonist of the subsequential movie, #4)
But Entei's movie was the only one existing when Crystal was made as a game.

So, Entei's more important, because he was in a non canon movie?
The only reason Suicune appears more was because he was being chased by Eusine.
None of them are more important than the others.

He's just the mascot of that game. They didn't make the game about it.
Or are you saying Red and Blue are about Charizard and Blastoise?

Suicune was also the only of the three to have any connection to a jewel, a crystal.

WUUUT? Entei's got the ruby. Probably EnteiXRuby is better than GroudonXRuby. Also, for Raikou, there's the topaz. For Groudon and Kyogre I would've said Magma and Ocean. They fit more.

Where does Entei have a Ruby, or Raikou a Topaz?

Groudon and Kyogre are in Ruby and Saphire because of their color. They are the continent and sea basin pokémon respectively.

Suicune's name derives from the words suikun, which means water monarch, and suishō, which literally means crystal, and he also has a crystal shape on his forehead. They didn't choose it just because they thought it fit better.

Don't say something would fit better without actually knowing why they actually made those choices.

whoa. lots of closet pokemon fans xDDDDDDDDDD

anyway, i played up to emerald only (never played the ruby sapphire versions). i remembered about my crystal version and i checked i still have it (save game) in my cellphone emulator, lmfao. i just checked. i have 40+ level 100 pokemon, and with celebi (251 pokedex). and a mew with these moveset (softboiled, metronome, guillotine, horn-drill) xD

but seriously though, every pokemon game is the same story. only the pokemon and added features for every version changes. i got tired of it before i even finished all the gyms in emerald version.

i think i shouldnt have used the word "story" in my previous post. you guys took it too literally. xD

well, i was talking about the pokemon games in general. in every game, you collect gym thingies after defeating the gym leaders, theres a villain team (team rocket/aqua/magma/idk if there are new teams) you need to beat, train your pokemon to the level enough to defeat final four (with technique and items). i dont kow how to call it, it sure isnt the story, maybe the "routine" of the game is the same? thats what made me lose interest in pokemon.

of course, its just my opinion. though its still part of my childhood/pre-adulthood history and yeah i enjoyed it still in the past xD

@shade
thanks. i might try/start it if i have spare time. i know some people who are talking about black/white like crazy. maybe i really should try it.

@sgn Closet fan would mean I don't openly say I like it. Considering I was the one who started the Pokémon topic in the game section, that's not the case.

Also, I'm Shade, he's Spade.

This can be applied to any game really. When you get down to it Street Fighter is basically punch, kick, Hadouken, repeat. Call of Duty, Halo, any FPS is point and fire gun at things and repeat with an occasianal vehicle part. Resident Evil? Kill zombie/infected repeat. Mario? Platform, jump on things, repeat. Grand Theft Auto? Kill, steal, hooker, repeat. Games are what you make them, and it sounds like you only experience a small piece of what Pokemon can deliver. When I was younger I didn't care much for the actual game, it was fighting my friends and comparing who had who that was the fun part. Now I try to get more fun out of it by playing with new Pokemon each time I do play so it doesn't become stale, which I admit it can very easily do.

Pokémon does have a storyline other than the whole "beat the league" business.

soul silver has the best story to me out of all the other pokemon games....also not all pokemon games are the same, some have more of a detailed story than others but they all have a decent story, the main point of the game is to train your pokemon and try to collect all of them not just try and play the story though
