    Between Route 14 and Route 15 of Unova, you can visit one of two places, depending on the version. Black City for Black and Black 2, and White Forest for White and White 2. What's your opinion about these exclusive locations, and which one between these two do you like the most?

    I find it was a cool addition to the game, even though there is some issue, that I have to talk to all of the units or they will leave the area, which makes it more empty, especially if I haven't turned on the game for the long time, and I'm glad they fixed it in Black 2 and White 2 with alternate mechanic of shops when battling in the tower or underground. And speaking of areas, personally I like White Forest more, because I like being able to catch some Pokémon in the grass there, even though it's not available to White 2 due to the alternate mechanic mentioned earlier.

    Never got Pokemon White/2 but from the images, it looks awesome. :P Black City is ugly, empty and useless once you battle everyone, and you can't catch Pokemon.

    I'm going with White Forest. :D
     
    My fave of the two is Black City, but both locations look really beautiful. It's just that I'm not much of a nature person but I love how it offered a few battles if you got people to come in. I wasn't a fan of the changed mechanics in B2/W2 though.
     
    This feature was one I never cared for all that much in BW, but I picked White Forest as the Level 5 Pokémon are a nice catch. But at the same time I do like Black City, too, those buildings are cool and you can at least buy more of a variety of things there.

    And with B2W2, White Treehollow's vibe and layout I liked more than that of Black Tower's. Although how it only sets you to certain evolution items that can be purchased wasn't all that great.
     
    White Forest for me :) I really liked the natural beauty of it, and for me personally it was suitably different to all the other routes with grass and trees etc. to make me want to explore it fully :)


    Black City... I don't know I kind of feel like in terms of a futuristic city, Black's version of Opelucid City was a far superior model. (Or at least I enjoyed it better anyways lol!) :)
     
    I've enjoyed going through them, actually; they were rather nice, especially for something post-game.

    Of Black City and White Forest, I would say my favorite would likely have to be latter. In Pokémon Black and White, I don't believe we have any forest-like places around at all (do we?), and even if we did have, I don't precisely believe they were quite memorable, thus, making White Forest stand out in a way--it's unique. Black City isn't bad at all, but it reminds me a lot about Cestelia, however, which causes the place to feel kind of unoriginal.

    If they had the chance, I wish they would have done a little more with both of these places. In Forest, perhaps they could have given us access to a wider range of Pokémon, and in Black City, I feel it would be nice had we been able to purchase more valuable items and whatnot.
     
    Black City, because more trainers to battle means more exp for my Pokémon.
     
    White forest of course, got so much to explore wild.
     
    Black City, because I like it's overall atmosphere better than White Forest's. I've also played a lot of Black 2, so I'm just so used to it.
     
    Honestly, I never really spent much of my time in either place. I think I will have to pick White Forest though, purely based off of the design. Black City felt kind of creepy honestly, the atmosphere was so different than every other Pokemon city and there were only a couple buildings.
     
    I loved White Forest. Being able to go in there and catch wild pokemon like that was fun. It was really pretty too.
