Pokemon Black and White 2 vs Pokemon Planet
Pokemon Black and White 2
Pokemon Black and White 2 is set 2 years after the events in Pokemon Black and White where you'll start your adventure in the beautiful city of Aspertia. The game features the same generation of Pokemon as the previous game (and yes, this includes the legendaries), but since you'll be playing in a whole new region, you'll have plenty of new places to explore and people to meet. Not to mention, you may even spot a few familiar faces from Pokemon Black and White too. What's really different about this game though is that the Pokemon you get via your Pokemon Dream Radar can now be transferred to your Pokemon Black and White 2 game.All in all, if you already own a copy of Pokemon Black and White, you might still want to grab Pokemon Black and White 2 as well mainly to experience the new region and adventure.
Pokemon Planet
Pokemon Planet is a Pokemon-themed, MMO adventure-RPG where you'll not only get to strive to "become the very best like no one ever was"; you'll also be able to assemble a team of Pokemon from various generations/regions (except the ones from Alola). It even features graphics that will definitely twinge that sense of nostalgia in your heart, especially for those who have loved Pokemon ever since their childhood days.The game plays out pretty much like the usual handheld Pokemon games of old, except that this time around, the game is an MMO and hence, you can actually interact with other players in the game. This does make trading Pokemon or dueling a lot easier. However, since the game is not Nintendo-affiliated, the developers are restricted from using certain assets of the franchise, which apparently includes animation and sound effects, but oddly enough, that exclude all the Pokemon designs and every other game element in the game like Gyms and Pokemon Centers.
Although Pokemon Planet is not a Nintendo-created game, it is the sort of Pokemon game that fans of the franchise have always dreamed of. It has the entire package, from the nostalgic graphics to all the Pokemon you can possibly catch (and then to duel other players with). Personally, I believe Pokemon has always been a game that's just primed for an MMO game, and Pokemon Planet simply one-up Nintendo by turning that into a reality (first).
