This is due to the role of the traditional "Rival" character in the game. It's a pretty decent story as far as Pokémon games go, and Black/White 2 has the most coherent storytelling method yet.
Pokémon black and white 2 ds full#
One has gone full evil and is stealing Pokémon for its own personal gain, while the other is trying to make up for what it did under Ghetsis' leadership by caring for orphaned Pokémon. While most of Unova believes that Team Plasma has disbanded, it has actually split into two factions. Pokémon Black/White Version 2 continues the story of Team Plasma two years after the hero of Pokémon Black/White defeated the evil Ghetsis, who hid his scheme to control the world behind a front of "freeing" Pokémon from humans. Now, for the first time, The Pokémon Company is releasing a direct sequel to a previous Pokémon title instead of a simple enhanced third version.
Pokémon black and white 2 ds series#
Though it was a solid series entry, I found it overall to be lacking compared to the recent Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver remakes, having moved a few steps backwards in terms of interface and quality of life improvements. It also dedicated a full half of the DS screen real estate to a passers-by multiplayer interface-something rarely useful to us spaced-apart North Americans. The original Pokémon Black and White featured Unova, a far-off region of the world that was populated only with new Pokémon until after the player had toppled the Elite Four and Champion. Of course, the series has become more complex and interesting over the years, and this fifth generation of Pokémon games places a major emphasis on connectivity, both with other players and with the suite of supporting products that The Pokémon Company has produced. In some ways, a review of a Pokémon game boils down to a simple question: Do you like Pokémon? The basic formula of the venerable series has changed little over the years: Set out on a journey to become a Pokémon master, catch a bunch of alternately cute and strange monsters, pit them against other monsters in turn-based battles, and progress through the nation's gym badge system until you get the chance to take on the Elite Four and beat the previous Pokémon champion into the ground.
