    Sinnoh does not have tons of fillers. Only about 25%, that's not bad at all. Not to mention we don't even know if they even planned to make Ash challenge the Battle Frontier in the first place.

    I went through the episode guide. & my goodness, the Pokemon League is near! I thought that would take a little longer. I'm pretty surprised. how come this time around they dragged out the storyline? was that some sort of mistake on their part? I'm guessing that because it was dragged out... there was no time for a Johto Battle Frontier, correct? that would've been nice


    Probably was a mistake and maybe a bit to do with advertising pushing a few episodes back. This is only a theory, but these things are probably why Sinnoh was rushed in the end, there was no Generation IV Battle Frontier, and why Isshu started in a rush:


    1. The writers didn't realize how close Black and White was close to being finished.
    2. With the release of HeartGold & SoulSilver revealing a few new features such as the Pokeathlon they were probably told to have a few episodes around it (and maybe include Lyra some how to get her popular).


    Of course all the filler Sinnoh had didn't help either. Pretty much I think they had too many fillers leaving only the minimum amount of episodes needed to include a nice round-up to Sinnoh, quickly include Ash challenging the Generation IV Battle Frontier, and build up Ash going to Sinnoh which went completely out the window when they were told they needed to include episodes advertising features in other Pokemon games as well as not realizing how near Pokemon Black & White was close to finishing.


    thank you thank you.

    I know that Pokemon Black and White will be released in the US sometime in the Spring of 2011, but has anyone revealed the exact release date yet?

    You just seriously didn't ask for a release date for the release date...

    You have to download Celebi to D/P/Pt/HG/SS either from the event currently going on at the Black and White Mall Tours (February 5th to March 20th) or (more reasonably) from Gamestop when the event comes February 21st (and goes until March 6th).

    Once you get the Celebi, you can transfer it over to Black/White to unlock Zorua. (Celebi also unlocks a Time Travel Event in HeartGold and SoulSilver.)

    If you're looking for Zoroark, though, you have to download the shiny Raikou, Entei, or Suicune from the Wi-Fi events going on now (or take one you got from one of the GameStop events) and transfer it to Black/White. Do that, and you can take on a wild level 25 Zoroark.

    ...unless you're talking about getting Zoroark via evolution.

    Actually it's still a good idea to get the Crown Legendary Beast Event Zoroark as it's female so it's actually better to get as that way you can keep breeding Zorua eggs until you get one with the IVs and Personality you want (though only a competitive gamer will spend that much time doing that).

    well I can no longer get that Zoroark because I missed the Shiny Beasts Event T_T I also read that there was a Mew Event for HG/SS? I know that that was so long ago..... but (wishful thinking) is there another way to get it? though I'm already sensing a 'no' =/

    As SPDShadowRanger said in the Event Pokemon Board, the Shiny Legendary Beasts are now available off Wi-fi. Just connect to Nintendo Wireless and as long as you have an internet connection you should be able to download them. Right now they're giving away Raikou, and I'm sure Serebii or on the Event Pokemon Board here we'll report when the next Legendary Beast is available for download.


    And it's Celebi which has an event in HGSS. They'll have a download for a special Celebi next, you can take that one to the Ilex Forest Shrine and it'll take you back to the past where you'll be able to battle Giovanni. In addition to that, this Celebi can be transferred to Black and White where you'll be given a Zorua (no battling required. It's only Zoroark from the Shiny Legendary Beast Event you have to battle).

    And the Celebi event, if i am not mistaken, ends in Gamestop at the end of March 6, so if you're going to get your Black/White version there then you can take the chance to also get Celebi.
