I've never played the gen 5 games. Which one should I start with first? Play BW then move to BW2? Or can I just jump straight to BW2?

bw2's story is a continuation of bw's (think gsc happening after rby). i'll recommend to play bw first if you're a lore fag but obviously it's not mandatory if you wanna jump straight in to bw2
they are the same game but bw2 has a postgame
>they are the same game
between virbank and lentimas it's literally just a third version of bw
that's like a tenth of the game
Different story, vastly different path through the map, different gym leaders, way different selection of wild Pokemon pre-E4. Are you unable to comprehend the idea of another plotline set in the same region?
Also:
If you play Black 2 first, it unlocks the key for challenge mode you can send to White 2. If you play White 2 first, it unlocks a key for easy mode that you can send to Black 2. So Black/Black 2 first is probably better.
If you have a 3DS and can load cia files, get Dream Radar. It lets you transfer a bunch of items and neat hidden ability pokes to B2W2. Their levels depends on how many badges you have. Do it early and you can get level 10 legendaries.
I thought BW were wack early on, but with the sequels it's a great generation.
Your completed this paragraph exactly how I would have if I had decided to enlongate it.
Play gen 6 it’s gooder and has goodra unlike this unplayable slop
>Which one should I start with?
>literally numbered in order
OP is the kind of person that needs inflatable arm bands when eating soup.
Make sure you play the same color for both 1 and 2, it'll keep various story elements consistent.
Yeah, don’t be a dumbass like child me and get White then Black 2 because I liked Zekrom more than Reshiram
Play one of BW first, then B2W2. For best results, play the same color 2 game as you played of the originals.
Yeah, I thought I would be clever and get White 2 after Black 1 so as to have one of each color. Now I don't have a Zekrom.
Just do the DNS exploit, you can get a wifi event Zekrom
If you want a different experience from the majority of the other games, play BW first
If you just want to play the peak of Pokémon play BW2
have a nice day first
Then play X
I'd say both are worth playing but not back to back. bw2's mid game has very similar content to that of bw1 so you might burn yourself out unless you take a break in between. But if you're the type that can play the same game twice in a row and keep your momentum go for it.
Why would you ever play games outside of release order? Would you start the Saw series with 2? Would you read Huckleberry Finn's book before Tom Sawyer's?
I don't understand the logic behind threads like these.
BW has better story, BW2 has more to do
Of course BW1 first. What kind of retarded question is that? You won't understand the lore if you haven't played one and you'll spoil yourself if you play BW1 after.
> "do I play the thing with 2 in it's name first guys?"
No stupid
good thing literally nobody here is talking about Kalos. Holy fuck at least graduate from preschool before posting here please.
Black then White 2
>Wanting two Reshirams
>not wanting two reshirams
One wife and one girlfriend, yes.
>chaotic neutral
>there are people on this board who haven't played every pre-switch main series game at least three times
are these the people genwarring?
My recommendation is you play BW, take a break, then play BW2
Play:
Your preferred color first
The matching color sequel second...
Then the other two in any order. You will have access to all the Pokemon and Keys that way.
Gen 5 is dull as fuck and I've thought that since 2010
Don't, but if you must pick Black or White then play its sequel. Be ready for a ton of unskippable dialogue and cutscenes, an evil team who drops all pretense 5 seconds into the game, a bunch of bootleg clones of gen 1 mons, the best bug types to grace the franchise ever, and a ton of forced detours to do stupid minigames that suck ass.
both
Greatest game.
Don't play unsupported DSlop. Play Scarlet and Violet.
