... That sounds ridiculous... The Striaton Gym Leaders? Those boys couldn't do anybody any harm! I'm hoping the Shadow Trio take a bigger role in Grey - maybe we could battle them? I dunno, but I kind of loved them towards the end.

It was how they magically appeared, it was definitely a bit different. They just seemed undyingly loyal to Ghetsis. Then again so were most of the people in Team Plasma. The Seven Sages were like his whipping boys.

How they literally jumped out of thin air... Loved it. Yes, I noticed that when I was seeing them... They were creepily loyal to Ghestis, especially since he was such a prick.

This theme definitely keeps popping up in the discussions we've had. Ghetsis was very prominent throughout the game and yet by the time it's over we know little more about him than we did starting off. I do hope the third version gives a bit more insight. I mean it worked for Platinum with Cyrus.

Yes. And, with Looker turning up at the end of B/W, do you think he'll be much more prominent in Grey? I think Looker would be an excellent addition though I still think 'Handsome' was a better name!. Yeah, I see what you mean about Ghetsis; we really do know very little about him.

Handsome is way better. AGENT HANDSOME! Just has a better ring to it I guess. Plus I had in mind Looker for one of Joey's gang a whiiiile back. Now it just seems sort of odd. Bugger confusion though, there'll be Agent Looker and the righthand man Looker. I would like to see more of Looker in Grey. The one thing i'm a bit unsure of is his speech. It seemed a bit odd at times and I can't really remember how he spoke in Platinum. I don't think he spoke quite the same as it would have stood out more in my memory. Hopefully if he is used a bit more you and him can go doubles in fighting to get to Ghetsis.

Honestly, I really enjoyed the storyline and having Team Plasma (contradictions and all) as villains. The way that wove in with the gym leaders and their reactions to all of it was immensely entertaining and far more satisfying than most of the storylines for the other games to me.
That said, they generated SO MUCH HATE in me for Scrafty and Scraggy that I don't think I'll ever be able to train either of those pokemon. Which is kind of sad but GODS THOSE THINGS ARE F$KIN AGGRAVATING.

I remember there being some discussion about Ghetsis' different coloured arm. Although it's easy to just watch it on your own game this video makes it apparent just how different the contrast is:
Whether it is just a little motif or not to tie in with the whole Black and White version difference is possible but it just seems to much of a design choice to not have some history behind it.
