I got Black, started with Snivy and got Panpour in the first gym city. Need to capture another decent Pokemon.
So far the game is amazing. The battles are incredibly faster then older games, the buildings and environments are beautiful in comparison, and it is more challenging then the past DS titles.
For those who don't know, you can get the Liberty Pass from Mystery Gift which can allow you to capture "Victini" (Pokedex #000, for this region) at the Liberty Garden Island (you get there from Castelia City).
Decent game thus far, worth $35 no doubt.
