So far, I've gotten to Azeala, have one badge, and am overall impressed with the new features that have been added. Auto-run,(no more holding down the B button!) the whole touch-screen interface, the enchanced environmental effects(you now hear the sea when you are near it, for example) and the Pokewalker(it deserves its own section) are only a few of the changes that I hadn't heard about.(well, except for the pokewalker, but I had no idea what it did)

So, Libelldra, how are you enjoying Heartgold or Soulsilver?(Or both!)

Auto-run is best feature.

I'm getting the game when it gets released in Europe.

I like it! No Pokewalker for me though :(

Anyway, I'm trying my best not to Pokesav my in-game team...but the temptation! OH! The new gyms are nice though...and Chikorita sucks ass.

Too much on my gaming plate right now, and a friend already said he'd be willing to let me play his copy when he's done with it, as he doesn't care if I delete his file or not (he'll be "done" after beating Red.)

I'm having a lot of fun with it. I had set up a level one Totodile, Scizor, and Aipom on my Platinum cart before this came out. I now have a Gengar rounding out my team. I just beat Morty and am transfering my HM Slaves from Platinum as we speak.

EDIT: As far as new features go, my all time favorite is the enhanced touch-screen utilization.

Heh, did not notice THAT until now. What was I thinking, HeartSoul!?

Anyway, I've just gotten to the Pokeathlon, and it seems to be more fun than the contests, although I liked to do Contests before. I came in last the first time I tried; it all seems to be a bit much to take in. In fact, it seems to be a bit more complicated than the Contests I was so used to.

I wonder how contest stats from previous games will carry over? If they end up converting to Pokeathlon stats, then I'll have some powerful 'mons to use.

I just beat Clair and am now attempting to catch Ho-oh. Attempt one didn't go well because it turns out Ho-oh tires Gengar (my sleeper) for speed.
The good news for attempt 2 is my mom bought me a friggin' choice scarf!

What's the worst thing Ho-oh can do to you while trying to catch it?

I forget if its at 40 or 70, but either way, by that point it knows either Brave Bird or Sacred Fire. Frigging painful. For the latter, it also has Punishment to rip apart your Gengar...

It's level 45, which means Fire Blast, Sunny Day, Extrasensory, and Sacred Fire. Brave Bird is at 15, Punishment's at 50 now.

And this is Gengar we're talking about, a stiff breeze is enough to KO it...

Well, I figured what with a mess of scattered EVs at that point, it could mebbe survive something. Then you pointed out their speeds were tied and I figured it would be one-shotted by anything Ho-oh did anyway.

Just got my seventh badge, and I am now stopping to compete more in the pokeathelon before going on to Blackthorn.
While going through the Radio Tower, I noticed that the switch puzzle is less difficult than in the originals.
Still wondering what the random Kimono girl appearances are for...

I'm also close to conquering the Pokeathlon, only one more record to beat, and I'll find out what lies in the 4th room.
