This game does so many things so well, but i wanna praise the level design in particular. Progression feels natural and rewarding, but also; the map just feels alive? It feels natural? It makes sense and i really like that feeling. It's hard to make a world that feels cohesive and weirdly grounded with this type of perspective and visuals, but it conveys it so well.
It's just nice ain't it.

Black and Black 2 are the champions of the series for me. I thought the art style of 2.5D looked great in the game. The first time you cros the bridge and see a city with skyscrapers and actual people walking around was mind blowing. The story was super engaging and I loved the soft reboot of only having new Pokemon available. Including absolutely great designs like Ducklet-Swanna and Victini. They gave the games a damn difficulty slider and introduced the GTS. A fantastic gaming experience. Peak Pokemon
gamefreak decided to become good writers in gen 5 and then it sold like shit and had poor reception so they gave up

Porfavor Pokémon vuelve :(. N probablemente será el mejor personaje de toda la saga por mucho tiempo, si no es que siempre. Equipo plasma sin rival. Musica de locos, y que bonito se ve. Lastima que esté basado en estados unidos. Lo unico es que si hay que grindear un poco
I'll never understand the people gassing this up, it is so forgettable it's embarrassing. I like the stupid little ass monkey tho, they're cute until they evolve!!
not a fan of how much of a straight line this one is, and i have very mixed feelings toward the metric tons of DS exclusive features it has that all became unusable after servers went down
Is the best entry on the pre-3D era, great story, the most worked gameplay and graphics that still fell great
This is the last Pokémon game that felt like it had soul.
It improved on its predecessors mechanically wise, and genuinely tried to push the limits of the original DS hardware. This game was not better than Pearl/Diamond/Platinum when it came out-- but it aged better than Pearl/Diamond/Platinum.
Nothing on the DS took my breath away more than crossing the Skyarrow Bridge. Being a native New Yorker, it feels me with pride to see how much respect is given to Skyarrow Bridge (Brooklyn Bridge) and Castelia City (New York City)
The story actually tries to be interesting for a Pokémon game for once. This may not be the best Pokémon game in many people's eyes, but the love in making this game is there. It felt like this game was meant to be the last.
Gamefreak really tried.

ill never forget the pure amazement i had as a kid arriving to castelia city for the first time
j’ai pas peur de le DIRE JAI PAS PEUR
Peak Pokemon. GF will fuck up the remake.
Great addition to the franchise. The villains in this one are very understandable.
This game is one of the best entries in the Pokémon series. The pixel graphics reached their peak, the story is actually pretty good, and the new Pokémon are unique. Gen 5 doesn't have my favorite Pokémon, mechanics, etc. but this is still one of the best and is certainly in the top 5 best games of the franchise.
finally beat my save file i started like 2 years ago this game is awesome i forgot how abrutly it ends tho its kinda funny
