Seeing that video brought much confusion on my non-Japanese brain. What the hell do kings have to do with glorified cock fights?Don't get me wrong, I'm getting White it's just that it's just like the Chewbacca defense: It makes no sense!

(Cookie for reference.)

I don't know the reference, but I'm pretty sure the king is one of the bad guys - however, in BW, Team Plasma are anything but.

They actually want to stop the 'glorified cock fights'

you youngsters wouldnt know cool if it kneecapped you

Aw, John. You should have linked WPM's version. It also has the idle menu screen.


Zekrom is screaming to be put on the 3DS.

Imported White and already have 2 badges and 1 Legendary x3

It's a really good game and I've got Black and White pre-ordered. There is a big emphasis on friendship in this one: you leave the home town with 2 friends. Also new to the franchise: the first battle is against the starter whose elementally weaker! The scenery is great too; fish swim to the surface of lakes, Pokemon will make tufts of grass rustle, rock-slides in caves yield hold-items and, there are certain areas where you can fight 2 wild Pokemon at the same time.

I'm done gushing...bring on the fire!

....So it sounds exactly like the last game in terms of interesting things.....
