Competitive WiFi has come a loooong way since then. Official Nintendo events (I don't want to make any accusations about R/S/E events, but...) are utter garbage. Nintendo knows nothing about competitive battling and/or the metagame. Their rules are retarded. I blame the demographic they try to appeal to, though. =/

Nintendo Australia is pretty slack when it comes to pokemon related events, like event pokemon distribution. We still haven't got a legit way of obtaining celebi yet, save for importing that special Pokemon Colosseum disc that was released in the U.S.
I've yet to compete in a WiFi tournament, so I don't know how to enter specific tiers and whatnot. But I agree with you that the metagame is way better than official Ninty tourneys

Ya, overseas countries are almost always on the short-end of the stick when it comes to Pokemon stuff. I was so surprised Europe actually got B/W first. Usually Australia and Europe don't get it for like, two months after it's released in North America.

You guys are supporting a racist game.

But there's both colors That's fair Generation 5 pokemon look dumb however... anyone agree? Disagree... just google up some pictures...

[Nearx]

I do agree. I still bought the game cause I wanted to check out the new graphics (Love em) but the pokes are getting so... bland now... =/
And the names could be better. I forgot which one I saw last night and lol'd about it cause it was so uncreative...

Ugh I hate patrats. So ugly. At least you can get those cute ass Purrloins early on in the game. They're basically useless (I think they're just Normal type) but they're so cuuuuute!

Has anyone else got a shiny yet? I got one earlier this week - an awesome pink Darumaka. Not the best nature, but good enough to beat in-game trainers with.

Wish I had Wifi though. Hopefully that'll change when I move

[jonahfinn]

my 4 mains are all 70s as well. Get yours to 100 then we'll talk battling =D

[Persuasion]

^You guys could just do the Lv 100 battle thingy on wifi, if he had wifi that is

Training legitly is so hard... But I always do the first time around, then I get some super elite pokes off intense poke fans from other places

[ToxicS]

[jonahfinn]

I've only ever had wifi battles with people who are on my friends list and once through downloading multiplayer data at the battle tower in pearl

Current Pokemon Event: Get one of the Eeveelutions with a dreamworld ability!

"A new mini-game is available on Pokemon.com where you can win one of the seven evolutions of Eevee with a special Dream World ability; a similar promotion took place in Japan before the release of Black and White. To win the Eeveelution, you simply need to sign in to your Trainer Club account and beat all four rounds of the game; it is essentially a brick-breaking game where you have to destroy all the bricks without losing the bouncing ball.

Many of the bricks will release orbs representing one of the Eeveelutions - the orb you catch the most of will be the evolution you win after beating all four rounds. For example, if you catch nine blue orbs (Vaporeon), five red orbs (Flareon), two black orbs (Umbreon), and a green orb (Leafeon), you will win the Vaporeon. So if you want a particular evolution, try to ignore the other orbs as they are falling and just make sure you catch as many of the ones representing the evolution you want. The game is hard and will take a lot of practice - I still haven't beaten it even after six attempts! (I know, I suck.)

After winning the game, your account will save which Eeveelution you have won. When the Dream World eventually opens (its international debut was recently delayed due to Japan's earthquake), you will be able to connect your Black or White to the Dream World and download the Eeveelution to your game. Each evolution features an ability it does not normally have - Vaporeon has Hydration (normally Water Absorb), Jolteon has Quick Feet (normally Volt Absorb), Flareon has Guts (normally Flash Fire), Espeon has Bounce (normally Synchronize), Umbreon has Inner Focus (also normally Synchronize), Leafeon has Chlorophyll (normally Leaf Guard), and Glaceon has Ice Body (normally Snow Cloak). Each of the Eeveelutions will likely be male like their Japanese counterparts, meaning you cannot pass down their special abilities via breeding."

I'm going to get myself an Espeon, his dreamworld ability seems to be the most useful in battle
