I started playing Pokémon Black last night, and as of now I'm nearly two hours into the game. (I'm just about to battle the first gym leader, it seems. I know, I'm slow.)
I chose Tepig as my starter after much contemplation, by the way. I nearly went with Snivy instead, but the creatively named piglet is such a cutie that in the end I couldn't resist him.
Anyway, I'm enjoying the experience thus far. The graphics are nice--I especially like the animated Pokémon sprites while in battle--the music is appropriately cheery and, best of all in my opinion, everything seems to move along at a nice clip.
Are any of you currently working your way through Pokémon Black or White? If so, what do you like or dislike so far?

I love the pacing. The new Pokemon don't seem to be as charming as the old ones I remember, but they're still pretty awesome. They had said they were trying for an older crowd, so they made them a little cooler, more angular lines, etc. They're not as cute, but definitely still collectible.
Huh. I think the ones I've come across so far have been really cute and charming. I have seen some later ones that look less so, though, so I can see where your'e coming from. One thing I always hate about these games: I don't want to let my Pokemon evolve :(
Me either!!! Tepig is NOT CUTE after it evolves...
Oh, well that SUCKS! Can you play a Pokemon game through to completion without evolving your Pokemon??
Sure! Of course you can. Unevolved Pokemon learn moves more quickly.
Oh, well, that's good to know. I'm going to keep them un-evolved for sometime then :)
