Wow, what a game and storyline they finished the DS era with. While I did miss more of B/W 1's characters and involvement, the new characters weren't horrible. There were times where they did feel dry and flat to talk to but as the story unfolded in a post N world, each frequent side character had their own special moment.
What really shocked me was the amount of pokemon from previous generations combined with the Unova Region. There were A LOT of great options to choose from and I ended up mainly using Emboar and Flygon. Flygon was a force to be reckon with (when it didn't encounter Ice 'Mons) and made Team Plasma look like a team of preschoolers in training. I really wanted to play more of the side adventures of the Battle Scene Park and the challenge mode but my main goal was to complete the main games of Pokemon. If I were a kid and had time to kill and wanted to play something enticing, White 2 would be one of the top choices.
