    Question Should Pokemon White owners buy White 2 and Vice Versa?

    Should owners of Pokemon White buy White 2 and vice versa? I suspect that it would benefit you to buy the opposite version given how you can experience things you missed as well as obtain version exclusive Pokemon you may not otherwise have.

    For continuity's sake, yes; White corresponds to White 2 (because it's a sequel). But other than that it doesn't really matter. Getting the opposite Version may actually be more strategic, since you would have access to Black's version-exclusives. However, you would miss out on getting Reshiram since it only appears in White 2.

    If Black 2 didn't have such good version-exclusives (by my standards), I'd be all over White 2, even though I have Black.

    i'm planning on buying white2 simply because its sounds better having white and white2 instead of white and black2. and he says you can get reshiram on white2^^

    I believe Pokemon Co suggested that you get the sequel to your game. I assume it's for continuity, and possibly a future giveaway w/ the dreamworld.

    That said, I got Black the first time, and am getting White 2, for the pokemon selection and white forest.

    Not really. Unless you plan on receiving the version exclusives.

    the white forest is basically the same as black city in the sequels.
    We're nothing more than concreteness victims trapped into our limits
    Blind beliefs that lead us: "Trust in what we can perceive with senses".
    Thousands minds that reflect our tendency to flatten layers of knowledge,
    demonstrating that we're just wasting our time.
    Look above us, sky is just a fragment and shows us how we're nothing more than ants.
    Human weakness is what we hide, overwhelming celebration of our fault .
    Entwined with our fears of being in your hands, we're deaf to the universe that guides us.
    How can we enhance our thin perception of every small wonder hiding behind simple shapes?

    That's what Masuda says, and it makes sense. White 2 is the sequel to the story you played in White and vice-versa, it's only logical that you choose the same color.

    I don't think it really matters, unless you want version exclusives.

    I have both Black and White, so nothing on me. I spent more time on White because I use it as my main playing file, and Black for other playthroughs, so I suppose I might buy Black 2 first. Since I'll end up with both of them it changes little which one I get.
    If you are one of the group who believes that people putting false statistics in their signatures to validate their own opinion, then telling others to put it in their signature, should be punished severely, do not put this in your signature and press 1. If you believe their statements are detrimental to society, press 2. For comments, complaints, or concerns about this signature, press 3. To redial, press 4.


    It was fun though, other than the dying part.

    Nah, just what ever version you want it doesn't really matter in the long run, unless you want to story to continue.

    Also we have a question thread.

    yeah. Also for continuity. In your original game, n used the opposite dragon against you. You now get a chance to face and catch that same dragon this time around. Zekrom will be mine!!!

    I'm gonna get white 2. It had nothing to do with continuity (even though I did have white); it was just because I liked White Kyurem instead of Black Kyurem. I've decided that I like Reshiram better than Zekrom, full stop

    But in terms of continuity it does makes sense for people who got White to get White 2 (and vice versa). But if you want the version exclusives then you get the opposite game . . . just get whatever game you want

    Why do I have this feeling that this will turn into a speculating thread?

    Well, I have both Black and White. But, I play White more because I wanted Braviary more than Mandibuzz. I'll get Black 2 and White 2. But, play Black 2 more. Isn't Black 2 the continuation of White, or is it with Black? I'm confused.

    BW2 is coming out in outside JP soon. The coverage for bw2 is almost ending. I don't really get if there's anything to speculate.

    Anyways, B2 is awesome because it has Latios. On a side note, when you enter a city (not sure if it's in BW), Black2 is black bar showing name while White 2 is white bar showing name.
