Pokémon Black Version 2
It's the same old thing, and all the feeling of freshness and daring that pervaded the original Black/White is completely gone. What we are left with, then, is nothing less than the ultimate realization of the Pokemon formula, and probably the best game the DS has ever seen.

- story2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
The story of the game is criticized for being stale and lacking the depth of earlier titles, with a formula that feels outdated and a slow introduction. However, some players appreciate the expanded storyline and the nostalgia of encountering familiar characters in the Pokémon World Tournament.
“Exploring new parts of Unova adds depth to the expanded storyline, and seeing old faces in the Pokémon World Tournament is a nostalgic treat.”
“It's still the same old Pokémon formula, which means no matter how good it is, it is also fifteen years old; the story is bad, and a far cry from the thought-provoking narrative and characters of the original. It loses the sense of freshness that Black/White had; slow intro sequence, and many features, such as the unlockable difficulty modes, feel unnecessarily gimped.”
