Should Pokemon White owners buy White 2 and Vice Versa?

[DemonViper]

Seems legit.

[cybersonic233]

I wish they had switched the exclusives for B/W2 so W2 had Pokemon like Gothita and B2 had Solosis ect for those who only buy one version and wanted to get the squeal to the version they got the first time around

[mjjfan10]

I played Black first (and most), and White second.
When I imported, I bought White 2 just for Reshiram. (Gotta love Reshi~)
Then I bought Black 2 at the English launch.
However, in terms of storyline/gameplay/areas, I could see how someone who's only played, say, Black could get confused if they bought the opposite sequel. (Especially for younger fans of the series.)
My Japanese is very intermediate, so there were parts of the game that were slightly confusing, being more used Pokemon Black.

[shadorai]

well, the only thing that really changes is which dragon you get, but i think getting the version exclusives is more worth it. i got white and black 2 by the way.

[Locormus]

This has probably been said multiple times before, but yeah.. If you've played White, then you captured Zekrom, and N has left with Reshiram. It looks a bit odd if N then returns in Black 2 (if you switched) with the opposite pokemon he left with in White, which you know was caught... -.-

The version exclusive thing is a weak argument, global trade fixes that quite easily.

[Kasaioni]

I got Black and decided to go with White 2 to complete the thundrus/tornadus pair. I had already gotten Zekrom in Black over the GTS; I'm surprised at the things people are willing to trade for a level 60 Manibuzz.
Although it didn't really matter because I got Thundrus/Tornadus/Landorus anyway when I bought the Dream Radar game off of the online 3DS shop.

[aquriomaster]

Well if you want both W-Kyurem and B-kyurem then sure
i kinda wish i had bought white 2 (Shiny garchomp looks the same as regular)

[PaddysTurtwigFanClub]

To be honest i bought white 2 just to get the shiny Dratini. I also bought black 1 so i think if you want both legends you should buy b1 and b2 and the same for white. Theres actually not TOO much different in versions of bw2.

[TheOriginalOne]

For the sake of the storyline, it would be slightly better in my opinion to have the direct sequel... but just slightly - I have bought White 2 after Black because I was curious about some differences, specially the White Forest. For me it's ok either way.

[Azimuth1011]

You should, in case you wanted to try the sequel and to catch some good version exclusives.

[lake12]

I brought Pokemon Black and Pokemon Black 2 and I'm happy with what I got.

[Mystical Jackal]

No, you don't need. I think you need to play both version to understand the history, but it's not necessary to have both versions.

B2W2 got a lot of inovations from BW, then after playing it you wouldn't play BW again. It's like leaving R/S/D/P after the release of Emerald/Platinum.

[Paladin of Arceus]

For me, it's rather quite irrelevant which sequel to get. I may have bought White1 first, but I eventually got Black1, as well. When I pre-ordered BW2, I got both at the same time, primarily so I could get all four Regi's, but also so I could see things from both gender's POV's. The Yancy/Curtis trades, in particular, made me glad I got Black2 and made a female char.

[telivisionhead]

Though it'll be harder to complete the pokedex like if ya needed mandibuzz,vullaby and version exclusives...

[Master Ask]

I got White 1 the day of release and then now I have White 2. I'm happy with it. I've seen so many people get Black 2 no matter which one they got first, probably for the mascot though.

[Lucina Archaelis]

Not really <.>

Main game is Black 1 and got White 2. White 1 I don't really play it. I love Reshiram, but I would have preferred to have gotten the straight story XD as in not getting two Reshis @-@. Still I am quite happy with it since I already got my own Zekrom from my White 1 game before deleting it and restarting P:

[devildog201306]

or just do what all the cool people(like me) do and buy both versions lol
