Pokemon Black Version 2 and White Version 2 will touch down in the U.S. October 7th, Nintendo announced today.
The sequel to last year's monster-catching RPG — and the first direct sequel in the franchise's history — arrived in Japan last week. Though its roster of collectible creatures is mostly identical to the original, it will allow players to catch classic Pokemon from previous installments in the series. It will also feature new Gym Leaders, and a Pokemon World Tournament mode, where the protagonist can go toe-to-toe against trainers from older entries in the franchise, like Misty and Brock.
Launching alongside the games on October 7th is Pokemon Dream Radar, a 3DS application which allows players to catch Pokemon using the handheld's motion controls and AR capabilities. Captured monsters can then be transferred directly into Pokemon Black 2 and White 2, and then honed into fearsome fighting machines.

Well, duh, game is in Unova, ergo it uses Unova 'mon plus 144 (of the best, IMO) 'mon from previous generations.
Debating whether to pre-order (or to even get this game) or not. I hope it'll be a huge damn improvement over White, but I haven't even beaten that yet.

I didn't like the male protagonist in Black, I hate both protagonists in Black 2.

They put Lopunny in (IMO, the worst Pokemon ever) but they couldn't put Miltank or Snorlax in? What.

I heard that white 2 is crappy compared to black 2.
Something about route 4 and assist mode.
Black 2 gets challenge mode.

assist mode is basically the pokemons on your second playthrough will be lowered leveled (doesnt make sense at all)
challenge mode is the pokemons on your second playthrough will be higher leveled

Assist mode makes no sense. I was going to get black 2 originally so I'll be looking forward to challenge mode.

Route 4 looks awesome in White 2.

Lack of a challenge mode in White 2 is BS though. But I'm wondering if you have a friend with Black 2 couldn't you just have them unlock hard mode for you?
Also Reuniclus is still White exclusive, and Black gets Lopunny and Gothitelle... So basically White is still the better version (cooler areas, still the same exclusives as B/W with some old Pokemon) except it has an unlockable Easy mode instead of an unlockable hard mode.
