Pokémon Black and White hold a special place in my heart. They’re the first Pokémon games I pre ordered, but I first played the fan translations that came out months before. Even though some consider the new Pokémon designs lazy or uninspired, I still love all of the ones introduced. Having access to only new Pokémon makes the games feel unique, since you can’t just track down that Pikachu or Gyarados you always use. While HeartGold and SoulSilver are my absolute favourite games in the series, Black and White are such a close second place. If not counting remakes, then first.
