With the introduction of 13 new legendary Pokemon in Black and White, the total now stands at 47. Is this too many? Are legendary Pokemon losing thier value? Or is this a reasonable amount. After all, there are 649 Pokemon
And which game got it right with the amount of obtainable legendaries. Where the 5 in R/B/Y enough, or do you prefer having more options to add to your team. Does having all the legendary side-quests expand them game, or is it just a cheap way of filling up time? For reference, below is a list of all legendary Pokemon avalible in each game. Those in italic are version exclusive, or require a Pokemon from another game to unlock. Those in bold are event exclusive or require a event Pokemon to unlock. Event Pokemon only include those with a in game event, not those downloaded directly, (exluding Gen V) Red, Blue, Yellow (click to show) Gold, Silver, Crystal (click to show) Ruby, Saphire (click to show) FireRed, LeafGreen (click to show) Emerald (click to show) Diamond, Pearl (click to show) Platinum (click to show) HeartGold, SoulSilver (click to show) Black, White (click to show) Personally, I think the set-up in FR/LG worked best. The extra roaming dog was a nice challenge without going over board, (R/B/Y had too few legends, G/S had too many roamers) whilst the trio+powerful legend set up has always been prefable in my opinion. Anything more and catching legendaries starts to become a bore, particuarly when they're static, (D/P is a good case in point). The in game obtainables in BW is also fine, however there's too many events/additional legendaries to get. In fact, there's more of these than there is readily obtainables. I get the version mascots, but did we really need 4 more event Pokemon. Its this excess of events plus the 'pointless' legendaries that don't seem to have much of a back story, (Heatran, Lati@s etc) and are undermining the rest of the legendary Pokemon This post has been edited by Flamer: Mar 23 2011, 10:00 AM --------------------  |
