Late to this, but Normal-types are underrated for how much personality they have. Snorlax was my comfort pick as a kid, and Ursaluna brought back that same "big wall that hits hard" energy. Also Bouffalant's afro absorbing headbutts is peak design. Agree on Miltank too, Whitney's still gives me flashbacks.

Nice, Black is a great first pick! A few things that would've helped me:

• You can only find new Unova Pokémon until the post-game, so don't wait around for old favorites. Just try the new ones.
• Pick whichever starter you like: the game hands you an elemental monkey early on that covers your starter's weakness for the first gym.
• Grab a Drilbur or Roggenrola if you can, they carry you through a lot.
• The story is actually one of the best in the series, so talk to N whenever you see him.

Have fun!

Hi everyone! Stumbled on this place while looking for old-school Pokémon forums and was happy to see it's still running. I've been playing since Gen 1 and these days I mostly collect the TCG, trying to fill binders by set. Looking forward to lurking and posting!
