Black and White? I myself cannot give an opinion on those two, but Zekrom and Reshiram ca-
Okay... note to self. Never use that joke again. no one likes it.
Black and White are quite revolutionary games. I like them alot. They're on my favorite games list,below Emerald and Platinum. TM's having infinite usage is a big + in my book, and so is the nice diversity of pokemon allowed before th enational dex. Sadly, this diversity doesn't include any of the previous 493 mons of previous gens, unless you can trade from a copy of Black/White that DOES have th emons you want to use. The advantage to this, however, is... NO MORE ANNOYING ZUBATS AND TENTACOOLS! Plus, the animated sprites fo rth ePokemon... AWSOME!
Also, the experience mechanism in this game hasbeen revamped, so as to discourage level grinding. The lower level your mons are o an opponents, the more experience you gain. THis means that blasting through the game with one pokemon... isn't advised (And I would infer not to do it, since raising up a full team is more fun.) However, they compensated for thatby bringing in wild rare candi- erm I mea Tabunne's, which are found in shaking grass. THey are the chansey's of 5th gen, and they give off BUCKETLOADS of experience.
Also, many of t epokemon intoduced in this generation are very powerful, and useful in-game. things like Sandile, Blitzle (Which is frail as wet toilet paper), and Siglyph are all good in-game mons, and are really helpful.
Sadly, this generation is rather easy when it comes to the Elite 4/ Gym Leaders. The Gym Leaders carry a maximum of three mons on them, wheras in Emerald, there were Gym Leaders with 5 pokemon of higher levels. Also the Elite 4 only has 4 mons ach, dn they tend to be very easy (Except for Marshal and his ****ing Sawk with STURDY.) The final boss more than makes up for that, thankfully.
To wrap things up, I really ike BLack and White. the music in the games is spectacular, and some of it seems too amazing to be in a Pokemon Game. The starters are meh, but you can pull through with them. The fact you can capturemany otherwise unobtainable wild pokemon after beating the Elite 4 (Like wild Tyrannitar, Dragonite, and Metagross) is also quite nice. he difficulty jump after the Elite 4 is also rather refreshing. All in all, they're very good Pokemon Games... but personally, I perfer Emerald and Platinum more, and maybe the Gen 2 remakes... I can't decide which is better... In short, I recommend it. If you can't get the actual games, you can always download a ROM Hack o them. One such ROM hack has all 649 Pokemon available for capture during the main game (Yes, that includes Legendaries...)

All hail the glory that is Tenshi, the Sunkern!
