Haha classic. I remember back in Ruby version being all confident that my Nosepass could beat Wattson and suddenly getting Shock Waved to death. Rock types aren't immune or even resistant to electric types. It's just because Geodude, Onix, Rhyhorn and their evolutions were part ground that people who started with first gen, like me think that. I agree, that's how I started to think that Psychic was super effective against Ghost: b/c of Gengar and his Ghost/poison typing.

The Gengar family really should not be part poison. And come to think of it, there are a lot of Pokémon that deserved to be changed like Magnemite and Magneton were in Gen II. Why isn't the Psyduck family part Psychic? Why is the Bulbasaur family part Poison? Why is Gyarados Water/Flying as opposed to Water/Dragon? And why isn't the Hoothoot family part Psychic?

LOL I love how Victini appears unlimited times if you defeat it. In this way, I helped level up my party really quickly before I caught it I also love how Victini has endure, making it easier to catch/get down to one hp

Man, I'm really regretting not taking advantage of that. Now Victini's gone forever; lost to the depths of my PC. Also, I love the little sound designs here and their. The gym leader's last pokemon music and low health music is sweet. And did anyone notice how the main percussion part of any route music only plays when you're moving?

I was gonna mention it on Sunday, except I thought perhaps everyone knew about it.

Finally got my copy of White and noticed that the box is Swedish or Norwegian or something. Gotta start playing so I can write something here later. Swedish and Danish. They don't care to translate it to Norwegian xD I'm training at route 4 atm I LOVE the game so far. Also, I'm sorry for you Nick.. but I do hope Nintendo will do the same for Australia that they did for Europe in the future. Lol btw just got White about an hour ago, and I must say that running shoes make the game a lot smoother. But I must say I REALLY love the streamlined battles! They're so fast! Exactly my thought! Thanks Tob But I would HIGHLY doubt that. Compared to Europe, Australia is nothing. We just happen to be a highly developed country in the middle of nowhere with a relatively small population compared to other countries. So yes, we will never get anything imported earlier than US or Europe.

I never noticed that about the percussion; that's awesome! I also love the musicians in various towns. I like the accordion guy, how you walk closer and he gets louder, and I also like the pianist and drummer in the second city. I love little touches like that. And yes, the battle music changes are amazing. I'm so glad they finally did something to make the low-HP beeping, well, not annoying.

I like the areas, the battles, the seasons, the music etc. This game is awesome so far! Although, the lower screen could be in more use like in HG/SS.

Might be a little off topic but this freaked me a little.
Whist I was fighting a pokémon in the wild, I had my media player going at the same time. The elite four battle came on and it played at the exact same tempo as the wild battle music!

Ooooowowwoooooowooowowoowooooo, The tempo happens to be the same between the twoooooowowoooowoowow Honestly I don't get what freaked you out about that, I could understand if it was like the same thing played backwards with voice samples inserted telling you to go buy their products or something but it's not like they can't use common tempos or something. I hope this isn't coming out as harsh or anything, but I really don't see where the " " feeling comes from. That's sorta like the guys that got worked up over the fact that filler song on a Tool album sounds okay if you reverse it, put it over it and then do the same thing with another layer half the speed of the last one - of course if you play the same thing at half time over itself and it never changes key it will still sound musical.

Hmm...well that's odd. You don't take damage outside of battle from poison. Now, I never really have a problem when things are not like they were in Gen 1 but this is kind of a weird change. First they made it so that your Pokemon cured their poison when they reached 1hp and now they don't even take damage. Back in the earlier gens, poison status had a much more urgent feeling to it because you could black out steps away from the Pokemon center if you weren't careful. Now poison is basically the same as burn.
I don't really like this change, but it's such a small detail anyway so it's no big deal. I still really like this game.

Wow, that's pretty lame. THere are a few changes I don't like too much. I don't like the new Dowsing MCHN. I don't like the new touchscreen layout, I preferred HGSS. I wish that Y brought up a menu and the top two in the menu would be on the touchscreen, along with the Running Shoes. I also hate the grange they made to the "Move" function of the PC. It basically takes the touchscreen part from HGSS and takes out all the user-friendly-ness and now it... sucks.

Lolz! Not so much freaked as surprising. Especially since i wasn't really paying much attention until I heard that ^^; And yes, it would be pretty freaky if the song played backward and started chanting for me to buy their products! o.0
