I always thought that there was a big difference between Gameboy Pocket / Colour and the GBA. For example, while the GBA is old it doesn't look "retro" like the other two. Hence I was a little surprised at the Hoenn remake.

[RekkaAtsuma]

Okay ESO took up a lot of my time but to hear the confirm of RS remakes.
Pokémon TAKE MAH MONEYS!
As soon as I have the funds, I'm preordering both OR/AS versions and then in November I'd disappearing from the net while I has myself a date with Groudon and Kyorge.

However...I cannot say they're Hoenn remakes: they feature new "hyper-mode" looking Groudon/Kyorge artworks and the description says "a new world" so...who knows.
I do pray it's set in Hoenn though, but with how differently they did bw/b2/w2 it/s anyone's guess.

Nintendo investors conference confirmed them to be remakes. The in game footage is dropping in 3 hours~

[MagmaMcFry]

Well that was kinda disappointing.

[Cthulufaic]

And after that's released, then they'll remake Fire Red and Leaf Green!  Right?

[umiman]

Z probably comes after.

I can't believe I watched a livestream for an hour just for 40 seconds of the title sequence.

I'm a few days into my Black 2 game. All the competitive pokemon battling has made me so picky about my pokemon.

I only have three pokemon with me, and I tossed my starter into the bank. I have a steadfast Riolu, an intimidate Growlithe, and a Koffing.

That's it.

I want to toss my steadfast Riolu as it has freaking steadfast which is worthless but if I don't keep it I have barely any coverage at all. I barely ever catch anything as it's always like this: "Oooh, a Purrloin. I could use a prankster... aww. Prankster is a hidden ability." Or "Hmm... a Mareep. I could get mega amph- awww... no mega evolution." Or "Hmm... a Magby. Magmortar has really good coverage bu- awww... I forgot you have to trade it to level it up."

I don't even battle any random pokemon as I can't be bothered, so all my pokemon are so underlevelled even though I only have three. I fought the poison gym leader and she was 5 levels ahead of my highest level pokemon, the Riolu. It's quite amusing and helps a bit with the challenge. I'm currently stuck in game as none of my pokemon can learn cut and I can't be bothered to capture a useless shitty HM slave and waste a slot.

Wondertrade time?

[umiman]

Can't access the wifi as Black 2 uses the really shitty DS wifi detection. The one that doesn't recognize WPA2.

[Furtuka]

Oh Black2 i thought you were playing xy

[umiman]

Yerp.

XY is actually kinda shallow in terms of actual gameplay. The improvements and such to the battling is awesome, but the actual game is way too easy and boring. Everyone except the Elite 4 have 3 or less pokemon. There's zero endgame content, just that island. Can't rebattle gym leaders. Stuff like that.

Heartgold was excellent for the amount of stuff you could do but the systems are just way too dated now.

[Furtuka]

There's the Looker Quest, though I haven't managed to activate it personally.

Also New Poll.

You can rebattle gym leaders in the Battle Chateau, as well as the Elite Four and rarely Diantha, but it's pretty uncommon.

[umiman]

You can, but they don't change at all and don't improve. Forever 3 pokemon losers.

They were probably devoting most of their resources to adapting all the new 3D models and such, that's why there's less content.
