Kris and I completed our Pokemon Trio-Type Challenge not too long ago. I ended up playing Pokemon White 2 and it’s been a while since I’ve played the Unova region that I decided to talk about my favorite Unova Pokemon.

Top Tuesday: Favorite Unova Pokemon | Pokemon | Nintendo | Pokemon White | Pokemon Black | Unova Region | Video Games | Gaming | DoublexJump.com

Emboar

Emboar is the final evolution form of Tepig, the fire starter for the Unova region. I always go for the fire starters and Emboar is a bulky guy. I love his design and his moves.

Audino

I don’t normally have normal type Pokemon on my team, but Audino is pretty sturdy. While its attack isn’t all that great, it has a great defense. I think Audino is a pretty Pokemon too and I like how it’s associated with the Pokemon Center.

Stoutland

I raised a Stoutland for the first time recently for our challenge and I loved every moment of it. Stoutland is a great companion and has awesome defense and attack. Plus, who doesn’t want a pupper on their team?

Zebstrika

Zebstrika was the first electric type Pokemon I chose when White and Black first came out. He was on my team and he has a wonderful move set. I think he’s one of my favorite electric types of all time.

Unfezant

Unfezant is the final evolution of Pidove and is the “Pidgey” of the Unova region. I absolutely love this Pokemon though. The bird Pokemon, especially found in the beginning of the games, are always great. I enjoy Unfezant’s design and the move set overall is awesome.

Pokemon White 2 Review

Rachel Mii Double JumpHappy Thursday!

We’re getting closer to the release of Pokemon Sun and Moon. I just completed the Unova region. Only one more region to go before getting Alola!

 

Pokemon White 2 Review

Title: Pokemon White 2
Company: Nintendo
Console: Nintendo DS
How I got the game: I bought it

My Review:

Graphics

When this game first came out, I remembered how amazed I was at the graphics. I got the game for Christmas and once my family had left after the holiday, I laid in bed and began to play. I loved how the Pokemon moved during the battle as it felt more realistic.

The sprites were still that–just sprites. But the colors were brighter and everything in the game, battles and walking around the routes, just seemed livelier and more colorful than the other games.

Controls

As always, the controls for this game are just like the other Pokemon games. There’s no button-mashing to be had and all the buttons are straight forward and only have one function throughout the game. Being a Nintendo DS game, I still very much love the function for the touch screen during the Pokemon battles and even outside the battles.

Story

I was skeptical when I found out there were making Black 2 and White 2 as opposed to a “Gray” or a “Rainbow” to the original Black and White games. I found it odd there would be four games as opposed to three and there would be no “final” game to a “trilogy.” Yet, I thought they did a great job at continuing Black and White’s story. I know most people weren’t a fan of Black and White, but I think Black 2 and White 2 made up for it.

Overall

The Unova region isn’t my favorite. It’s kind of hard to explain why, but I always had a tougher time getting through that region than the others. The games are still great, though. I love the new Pokemon designs (even though they got a lot of hate), and I didn’t mind the “sequel” aspect. Still, I didn’t have as much fun as I did the other games.

Pokemon White 2 gets…
4 out of 5 lives.
