Well, it's been up for a few days now, but now's as good a time as any to announce in a news update that Part 7 of the BW walkthrough has been added. Part 1 and Part 2 also have been revised based on the English copies of the game. Parts 3-5 will be revised a bit later, but parts 6 and 7 are already final.
Some other new pages include a Calendar Guide for Black and White, including major changes between the hours, days and seasons of the year; and our Amnesia Attack layout has changed a bit to have "Time Remaining" and "Score" next to each other, so more answers can fit on the screen at once.
Also, today on Pokemon.com is a new game called "Play to Befriend a Pokemon." It's a Breakout clone with four levels. After beating all four levels and, based on the items you collected throughout the game, you can win an Eeveelution for your Pokemon.com account that can be transferred to BW when the Dream World is opened at a later, postponed date. Unfortunately, only one Eeveelution can be won per account, although you can deny the Eeveelution you've won if it's not the one you wanted and try again for the right one.
Once they're transferred to Black and White, these Eeveelutions will have their Hidden Abilities, meaning: Hydration (Vaporeon), Quick Feet (Jolteon), Guts (Flareon), Magic Bounce (Espeon), Inner Focus (Umbreon), Chlorophyll (Leafeon) and Ice Body (Glaceon). Personally, I won myself an Espeon about an hour ago.
Which is your favorite Eeveelution? Which one do you think has the best Hidden Ability? And which one will you try to win on Pokemon.com?
I got an Espeon yesterday :D Question though: I heard that there was a japanese version of this event just before the dream world released there as well. Apparently all of the Eeveelutions were male for that event. This leads me to believe that they will be male for us as well. Does this mean we can't use these pokemon to breed more eevees with their DW abilities, or do I not fully understand how male poke + ditto works?
@Zamadaga, you can breed any PkMn with Ditto (Excluding Legendaries). Just put Ditto + [Insert Name of PkMn] in the Day-Care (Located on Route 3), wait a little while and walk over to the day-care, the man standing outside the daycare should call you over and ............Successful Breed!
@Poke-piper yeah but he was referring specifically to the passing of hidden abilities which can only be passed by females to the offspring...I hope they're female :\
My favorite is umbreon, but personally, i think it has the worst hidden ability of the eveloutions. I'll tkae what i get though. btw, does it matter if u have the national dex to get pokemon like eevee though?
I know I'm late to the party but I just got White yesterday! But I'm noticing difficulty in leveling up due to the new exp calcs. Would it be easier to just use your stronger pokemon in battles and let the weaker ones catch up by battling higher-leveled Audinos (since exp is now based on level)?
I went for Espeon as well. Magic Bounce is a very handy ability and few pokemon have it. I like Vap's ability but water absorb is better. Guts Flareon is a neat concept but Flareon's move pool is horrible. Jolt's ability is pointless, given it's already fast. Inner Focus is iffy but decent, same as Ice Body (on a hail team) or Leaf's ability. But it really depends on how you want to use the eevee- Espeon can fit on any team with it's ability and it's always sweet to toss back taunt.
And I don't see them changing the mechanics for us so we can have females. I'm rather happy to hear the starters are set to male. Speed Boost + Batton Pass on Blaze is so broken it isn't funny.
OH MY GOD it's been SO LONG since you guys updated stuff! But I guess that's because there's nothing new going on.
Hey, if anyone who knows happens to read this, are there any Android apps that are useful / fun in regards to Pokemon? I just got a new phone and want to download apps, but I can't find anything good.
