No reviews? Really? I'll make a short one then.

It's Pokemon! Yeah the previous seasons were.. meh but this set Pokemon on the right path, the episodes all have a decent plot and Ash actually shows he has some experience under his belt for the first time in awhile. And Pikachu is still pretty good for a pokemon that jumps from level 5 to 80 then back to 5 at the start of every season. This re-kindled my love for Pokemon :3 Very nice watch!

Mixed Feelings

In this pokemon season the story focuses on N and the legendary pokemon of Unova. Well if you followed the game Black And White after that Black 2 White 2 you will see well from my point of view the anime didnt live upto the game or the game sequals. I wont say the main game character [Black/White or Black 2/White2] was absent and thats why the anime didnt turn out to be a better season but still it felt like they tried to rush in and missed N's true ambition and other stuff that we seen in the Black and White game. Also they ... tried to focus what we seen in the game black 2 white 2 like Ghetis's plan after 2 years and the outfits of the team plasma. Also Including the scientist all of a sudden. The anime should have atleast follow the time line from the pokemon game and try to make it that way but sadly they tried to keep balance between and black white and black 2 white 2. Also Cheren's appearance was questionable too. But still it was enjoyable by seeing same old Ash pikachiu and their ideals.

In the end i should say rather than rushing to the scenarios of black 2 white 2 they should follow the scenarios of Black And White it would be "More Enjoyable".

Not Recommended

Pros:
- anime finnaly showcases Team Pllasma storyline,
- N character finnaly shows up in the story of this anime generation
- there are few ineteresting battles,
- some old pokemon return to the main cast,

Cons:
- Team Plasma storyline it's too short, and feels underdeveloped,
- N shows up after 111 episodes in Best Wishes anime,
- the storyline doesn't feel any natural progresion
...
Overoll anime writers have waited far too long with the introduction of Team Plasma in Best Wishes (Generation 5 Pokemon anime), which feels kinda unrewarding for anime fans. When it comes to games the plot with Team Plasma is considered one of the best in Pokemon game. Their motivations, reasons, and build up in Pokemon Black/White, and sequels games, is really well done. It's unfortunate that anime writers didn't felt like adopting an interesting key story elements from the games. This is probably one of the main reasons why this generation feel somewhat unfulfilled.
