It's pretty gud. Johto's would be my favourite if only it wasn't fucked by poor distribution.

Couple bad distribution choices in SuMo but damn solid dex.

well it certainly doesn't have the best national dex...
>>
Doing a monotype bug run with the 4 new bugs.

Who should be 5th and 6th?

An ultra beast? Pinsir? Parasect? Butterfree?
>>
>>29880452
No

That's BW2
>>
Since it's smaller dex (294) (i don't count UBs,it's my opinion,ok?).

Yeah,it's the best regional dex,tied up with platinum.

BW2 is still the worst regional dex in the franchise,the old pokemon choices where awful imo.
>>
>>29880452
It's a terrible dex. VGC rules are only going to allow this dex online. Your options are going to be limited as hell. Trick Room is going to be the meta.
>>
>Jangmo-o that late.
Can someone inject me a low level one when I get the game?
>>
>>29880603
Scizor if you don't mind doing trade evo, Olivia will rek you otherwise since you can't get the Ultra Beasts before fighting her
>>
>>29880541
>genwun outnumbering every other region including alola
Like it or not Genwun still brings in the money. I've made my peace with it and using Alola forms to keep them fresh is a great way to do it.

>no hint that it's actually connected to kanto geographically to explain this bullshit
Autism.

>no volcarona
Volcarona is cool but I don't see a need for it in this dex. It's no fun for campaign use since it evolves so late and you can bank it for competitive. There are already plenty of cool bugs this gen.

>no tropius
Tropius is my fucking nigga, but with the continued move away from HMs I don't really need him this time. Would have been cool but not a deal breaker.

>NO SOLROCK OR LUNATONE
Good, keep those boring same type shitmons away from this dex.
>>
XY had the best regional dex. If there are fuck all new pokemon then go all out and put a bunch of pokemon in the region, not a measly 300
>>
>>29880613
>Gen 1 has a smaller dex (115) (i don't count Poison types,it's my opinion,ok?).
>>
Post-Cave of Origin ORAS is the best

BW2 Unova beats out Alola in quality, Kalos does in quantity
>>
No, the past Gen choice are pretty bad aside from pseudo legendaries and the current Gen ones are mostly trash.
>>
>>29880761
That is stupid trough,poison types are pokemon.
Some people thinks that UBs aren't pokemon and they have the right to not counting them.

>>29880721
Yeah,make finding new pokemon even harder.
fuck off.
>>
>>29880834
But UBs are Pokemon. They're in the dex, they learn Pokemon moves, they have Pokemon types, they take part in Pokemon battles. It's like not counting Genies or Plants. It's arbitrary, they're in the dex.
>>
>>29880858
Cool,if i don't want to count them do you have some problem?
It does affect you or something? i accept that you guys accep them,but if don't want to,i don't see any problem at all,it's my chooice.
>>
>>29880928
Not if you don't have a problem with me not counting Poison Pokemon. It's my choice and it's equally valid.
>>
>>29880613
>>29880834
>>29880928
>these are the people who don't like BW2
>>
>>29880944
Ok,i don't have any problem if you dont count poison types,it's your game and if you have fun this was,i totally respect you,since it's your way of play.
>>
>>29880834
>Yeah,make finding new pokemon even harder.

Increasing the encounter rate isn't hard.
>>
>>29880928
Here's the thing, your opinion can be "I believe UBs aren't pokemon and shouldn't count in the Dex"

but if you come into a thread where they are discussing the actual, cannon, game given dex list which INCLUDES the UBs then your opinion is ignoring existing facts, so it's hard to take any argument you make seriously
>>
>>29880587
maybe because they were in the games
>>
>>29880928
You can choose to "not accept" them, but it means you're ignoring an actual fact. It's like choosing to "not accept" that the Earth revolves around the Sun. You can "not accept" it all you want, but it's still a fact, and everyone else has the right to call you a blithering retard for your "choice" and make fun of you for it.
>>
>>29880928
Fortunely for us, you don't get to decide whether or not UBs are Pokemon. They are Pokemon. They are confirmed to be Pokemon from another dimension. They are caught in Pokeballs, registered in the Pokedex, and behave identical mechanically to Pokemon.
>>
>>29881137
This.
"Ultra Beast" is just a title. Like how Zapdos is a "Legendary Bird" and Landorus is a "Force of Nature".
>>
>>29880452
I honestly think B2/W2 had the best regional dexes, followed by Platinum's.

Maybe I like the former more because after a game of all brand new pokemon (B/W) we get to remeber old favorites, pretty much every route had usable pokemon.

Unlike X/Ys, which made the world feel bloated.
Like they made batches of 5/6 pokemon and just dropped them all in a route they didn't even think it through.
>>
>>29880452
>no rotom or porygon in the wild

I JUST WANT TO FUCKING GO FULL BALLTISM ON THEM FOR ONCE

FUCK YOU GF JUST LET US SWAP THEM AROUND
>>
>>29881441
But Porygon is in the dex. And I haven't heard about it being a gift.
>>
>>29880452
Absolutely not. Leaving out obvious ones like Lunatone, Solrock, Rotom, and Tropius is unforgivable. And there's way too much Kanto. Remove 20-30 from Kanto and add 10-20 from every other region and maybe.
>>
>>29881493
It is a gift

>the meta is going to be terrible because its going to be different

hurr durr durr
>>
>>29881712
What I liked about B/W2 were that old pokemon didn't outweight the new pokemon.

And GF decided to put the player's favorite before even the 3rd gym, like Mareep, Growlithe, Magnemite, Riolu.

Shit was much better than "hey, for the next 10 routes you'll get 60+ pokemon you have already played to death and like 5 usable new pokemon"
>>
>>29880603
Parasect is super nice in the main game for the utility of spore + false swipe.
>>
>87 Kanto mons (14 alolan forms)
>81 new pokemon
Others are over 30 or less, but Kalos lacks at 13?
Wow, poor Kalos
>>
>>29882406
Eh, we just had the Kalos games. I've seen plenty of Kalos mons recently.
>>
>>29881515
Already happened in ORAS
>>
>>29882504
Yeah, but they culd've added kalos pokemon that were found late in the game or difficult to find so that players were most likely to never have tried them. (not that there are too many)

Like Noibat or Bergmite, not fucking Trevenant the same generation GF releases 2 Grass/ghosts consecutevely, what the fuck 4 grass ghost families in 2 gens?
>>
>>29882604
and in Diamond/Pearl, but it's fucking dumb.

Do you see wild Windows 95 on your way to work?
>>
>>29880696
>autism

It isn't since they actually tried to explain alola forms in a 'realistic' fashion, but we're supposed to accept that there are all these Pokemon from one region because nostalgia?

Vikavolt is so lame and making cool useful mons like Toxapex and Golisopod such a pain to get is incredibly dumb.

>(i don't count UBs,it's my opinion,ok?).

It's not an opinion if it's just flat up incorrect. They're numbered Pokemon in the Pokedex. Why wouldn't you count them?

I only know this with corsola and carbink so far from other anons and testing corsola specifically, but sometimes instead of summoning help in distress, the pokemon that preys on them shows up after noticing that they're injured and tries to take them out. The crown of thorns one, mareanie, can show up on occasion when corsola is hurt, and sableye shows up when carbink is hurt. Kinda helpful since both corsola and mareanie are really rare if you want them early game.
>>
>>29881836
You could also get Eevee in Castelia City. And Venipede, Sewaddle and Elekid/Magby being available before 2 gym was amazing.

>>29880976
If you ignore the circlejerk that is the PWT, BW2 are awful in comparison to BW1. BW1 is a fun and great game to play, while BW2 is less so the case
>>
>>29891728
I wouldn't call BW2 worse, it's basically the same game with the addition of a new town that I really like.
>>
>>29880613
Not the worst in the franchise, but it felt like "We're trying to please everybody BUT NOT YOU GENWUNNERS" (maybe that's why /vp/ loves it so much). It did have a bunch of big fan-favorites in them but hardly any were from Gen I.
>>
Just needs Ralts line and the Kalos fossils and it'd be sweet perfection.
