Only down side would be you would have to get both versions to get the full experience

Not necessarily. You would just explore the other areas later in the game.

So unlocking the routes available in the opposite game after the E4?

It doesn't even have to be that, just sometime later in the game than the other version.

That would be cool. It would also help w/ Legendary placement. Instead of the version exclusive legendaries being in the same spot, there will be version exclusive locations for them as well

You know, I didn't even think of that, but yeah, you're right. What would they put in place of the other legendary, though?

Probably some item or something.

Maybe another legendary, even.

I would probably say an item.

Say Latias is in game A and Latios in game B.

You catch them in 2 different locations and where the other would be in the other version, you get a Soul Dew @ that location

That's not necessary with Latios/Latias, they typically inhabit the same area.

So I finally got access to the Nature Preserve, and honestly I'm kind of disappointed by it. I was expecting this elaborate forested area and a little puzzle to get to the Shiny Haxorus. But nope, it was easy.

But as for the location of it...I'm honestly considering it being in Hoehn. I mean it is far, far away so why not? The only real thing that's out of place is Haxorus but still. It's possible.

The Nature Preserve is a little bit off the north part of the map IMO. If you notice, Unova is split by two rivers. Judging from the landscape of the area, the reserve is the meeting place/origin point of those two rivers...

Do they ever make those areas elaborate? They're usually pretty short. I do wish they'd be longer and more complex, though.

Also, anyone else find Black 2 Reversal Mountain's design to be really annoying? I mean, you have to go down to the lower path to reach Heatran's room, and then to reach the Undella Town exit, you have to go all the way back to the Lentimas Town entrance and go down the upper path.

Yeah, I liked White's better too.

IMO, Nature Preserve doesn't need a more complex puzzle, what it really needs is more variety of Pokemon that's available there.

Nah, it's fine. But I'm sick of all these bonus areas that are really just tiny patches of land with a Pokemon in them, they should put more effort into such areas.

Wait, White 2's is less annoying?

YES.

I agree, only ones that aren't in the National dex I believe are Nuzleaf, the Magikarp line, and Girafarig. Maybe Stantler and Stunky would've worked too, at least to me.


Why am I in your usertitle person

[Bolt the Cat]

YES.

Yeah, I checked a guide. In White 2's, Heatran's Room is on the way to the Undella Town exit. Man, what is it with White 2 having the better area layouts? White 2 Rt. 4 is a lot more interestingly designed, White 2 Reversal Mountain is a lot more streamlined, and White 2 Victory Road makes it easier to get to the Forest area (in White 2, you're forced to go through there, but in Black 2 you need Waterfall to get there).

You also have Noctowl and Kecleon.

It's a little bit off the north? Umm, it's said in-game that the Nature Preserve is far, far away. I don't think being a little north qualifies that. Besides we have no idea where any other regions are in relation to Unova.

I started on Victory Road today and I'm pleasantly surprised. I thought it was going to lead into BW1's Road, but it's completely new. I like how it snakes through the giant mountain, forested areas and even in the ruins of N's castle. It allows for some cool exploration.

It also seems really challenging. There are so many wild Pokemon in here, plus a massive amount of trainers. I've found myself having to heal a lot. Unfortunately I walked into Hugh's battle without saving prior for a while and he literally defeated me with 1 HP left on his Unfezant.

For the first half, yeah, it's pretty interesting going through various environments. But the second half is pretty much a generic cave/mountain area that we've seen zillions of times.
