Fucking hell this Driftwail Tournament thing is a pain in the arse. Pokemon White 2 isn't hard so much, but you're basically forced to grind between every story point which really draws the game out to extreme levels of boredom. I don't mind challenge but I feel like I'm forced to stay in each location a hundred times longer after its worn its welcome.

Do you have it set to hard? Because that was pretty easy for me, i completely sweeped through it.

I never grind in a Pokemon game :lol
Gives me more challenge. Makes Gym battles and the E4 more tense and exciting.

Dunno it's whatever the default difficulty is as I've not touched it. Like I say it isn't hard, but each new story opponent seems to be at least five levels ahead of me somehow.

The level spike on the E4 on White 1 almost made me quit the game.

That was awesome!
It's always so gratifying to come out of a difficult battle with 2 Pokemon left on the ropes.
Unless you're nuzlocking, in which case it's terrible.

It's fun if you win, infuriating if you lose.

My battle against Ghetsis in White 1 was so much fun!
Because his Pokemon were about 8 levels higher than mine (Like I said, I don't grind), so I had to rely on my Siglyph's Tailwind attack to give whichever Pokemon can score the type effectiveness thing a fighting chance to win :lol

Man. It sucked when I lost, but I was enjoying it.

I actually breezed through the battles after the E4 because I had to grind my pokemon to stupidly high levels and everyone after the E4 had easily exploitable weaknesses.

The E4 were generally about 5 levels higher (Since there was no real escalation because you could choose the order).

I think I only lost once because I derped against the Ghost user.

I remember fighting Ghetsis in White 1. That Hydreigon almost took out my entire team.
