Crossplay between with black and white

[KolegaHubert]

I was wondering if players from pokemon white could play with players from pokemon black and and the other way. I hope this topic wasnt already started, because i couldnt find any post on reddit or here about it. And sorry for bad english, not my first language

Both versions are merged, you can play with people with the opposite rom without issue as long as you're on the same channel. The game uses White's world and story regardless of your rom, but you can encounter Black exclusives too.

White's World? something are wrong, if are White's world, we aren't supposed to find White Florest as one of pos-game city? But the city that are to us is Black City.

The roms are nearly identical. The content for both versions are contained within either of them, so we can choose which aspects to use from each. We chose White's story and Opelucid, then chose Black City over White Forest when making that location available as a Fly point. We haven't decided which one we want to develop content for in the future though, it'll be whichever one we think we can make more interesting when the time comes.

Maybe in the future you could consider a feature which allows you and us to travel to both Black City and White Forest

Maybe a function such as that you have in BW2, in which, when having both keys, you can decide which one to explore before the game launches ^^

That could cause problems if you for example log out in Black City, change to White Forest and log in. A better way to implement it would be to have an NPC that could switch you between Black City and White Forest. The Fly location would bring you to the last one you were in, for example

Or maybe they could put into the two locations Hoopa's Rings who can make you travel between alternative dimensions lol

Ok that was too ambitious maybe, but what you said can definitely be an idea ^^

Best way in my opinion is block both city's exits, and gates entrys and then leave a NPC that will ask:

Do you want to go to which Location?
 - Black City
 - White Forest

The same NPC will be on exit of citys, to you return back. 
On Map, as a Fly Point, will be the last visited, or one defined by default, or they can add a selection box when you choose to fly to that point, asking: Go to White Forest or Black City?
