I ain't even used these monkeys on my run.
I had Tepig (yes

--I was anal about types back then), Patrat (cutie), and Munna (cutie x2). I happily navigated the first routes till Lenora. Then I had some trouble cos of her Watchog.
Something that irked me a/t B/W is how its programmation is...psychic? I would notice when I'd get a critical hit based on a time lapse between text and a sprite animation

Or I would successfully guess if Lenora would use Retaliate after my potion drink. Little things like these remind me of how B/W was so minutely programmed. Grinding in that game

Gotta get some Audinos for leveling up.
Then I caught my Ducklett and it evolved into a beautiful Swanna


Then I had me Amolomola & finally Amoongus.
Unova is almost an exact replica of Kanto tho in terms of Pkmn, soo. It's alright. Its massive Pokemon distribution got me wanting more after main-game. B/W2 was alright, but again not keen on finding Milotics in the wild after main-game (at least it was post-game). Better than having Latias as a freebie on my AS playthru. More like A$$ from the part of Game Freak
