  Black and White has one of those soundtracks that I couldn't imagine being remade. It's honestly perfect as it is.

  Fun fact: I believe N starts off battling with pokemon from the nearest area, so it would make sense if the season affects his team.

  These are the reasons gen 5 is my favorite generation of Pokemon. <br>Not to mention it had the best low HP music in the series.

  If you stand on the Driftveil Drawbridge for long enough, you can hear Charizard&apos;s cry distantly. This is in reference to the Driftveil drawbridge being more commonly referred to by Unovans as the Charizard bridge.

  The presentation in gen 5 is probably the best in the series. The beautiful sprites, animations, story, and all the little details you mention in this video make the generation stand out as one of the best in the franchise. Hopefully one day The Pokemon Company and Gamefreak will create a new generation of Pokemon that can top it.<br><br>PS: It&apos;s funny that you mentioned Over the Garden Wall since I made it a tradition to watch it every Halloween and I watched this video right after I got done watching it.

  Reshiram and Zekrom&apos;s types are also both plasmas. This shows that while immeasurably different, they share common roots. Meanwhile, Kyurem&apos;s the polar opposite

  Seeing Furret walk again makes me very nostalgic

  As someone who considers himself to have grown out of Pokémon after moving on to other, more interesting jRPG franchises, BW1 still remains the one game in the series I have a soft spot for (other than Emerald - gen III has a really nice gameplay flow). The restrictive dex, the more involving story that puts the gym challenge in the background, the seasons, the linear map design that still encourages exploration without ever forcing you to use HMs and all of the smaller details - BW1 wasn&apos;t scared of saying &apos;I want to try out my own thing&apos; and I believe that&apos;s why it still feels so fresh to this day (less so BW2, which, in spite of its attempting to continue BW1&apos;s ideas, I feel tried too hard to appease to the critics of the first game).

  I never really felt like the Pokemon selection felt restrictive of me. Even back when gen 5 was still new, I felt worn out from seeing the same Pokemon over and over (even moreso now). Black and White absolutely astounded me as a kid. Every single Pokemon was fresh and new. Every step I took was a brand new experience. Even ones that were still obviously meant to parallel an older design were still unique in their own way. A bit of old in the new, perhaps as part of the themes of the game? It was a game full of possibilities, and is my favorite game to Nuzlocke as a result.
