** [[Heartwarming in Hindsight]]?
* When you first fight the Elite Four, they make a few references to a previous challenger. {{spoiler|That was N. However, they didn't seem to care about the fact that they were swept by Reshiram/Zekrom. Before Black and White, a popular strategy against the Elite Four was to use the powerful and recently caught cover legendary. Maybe they're just used to this kind of thing.}}
* (canCan also be filed under horrorFridge Horror) At first, Ghetsis's hacked Hydreigon seems like it is there for the sake of having the powerful pseudo-legendary dark type on the final boss's team just so GF could. It turns out, {{spoiler|a fast (compared to Reshiram/Zekrom) Dragon type with decent power is a rather good counter to ''your'' freshly acquired [[Takes One to Kill One|dragon]] legendary during this fight. As he clearly is shocked you managed to contact the legendary and thus can't have been factored into his plans, [[Offing the Offspring|what do you suppose he was planning with it?]]}}
** This also explains why it has Focus Blast-- {{spoiler|everything N has ''except'' his Dragon is weak to Fighting, especially if it might actually be Zoroark just pretending.}}
*** His Hydreigon has absurdly high Special Attack and knows the moves Fire Blast, Focus Blast, Surf and Dragon Pulse. Now look at the weaknesses of N's team: Reshiram/Zekrom: Dragon, Carracosta: Fighting, Zoroark: Fighting, Archeops: Water, Klinklang: Fighting and Fire, and Vanilluxe: Fire and Fighting. Now, factor in what would have happened if you weren't part of the plan.
* At first it's really disappointing that you can't have a Pokemon follow behind you like in HG/SS. But come to think of it, in Unova, you don't see a single Pokemon just hanging out outside. In houses, sure, but not outside like in Kanto. And Unova is an urban region, far away from the others and based on New York instead of Japan. Perhaps the rules are different, and having Pokemon out in public isn't socially acceptable the way it is in Kanto and Johto?
** Or perhaps it used to be, but Team Plasma has caused enough social strife that your player character deems flaunting their trainer status to be... unwise.

* Deino starts off with one head, then evolves into Zweilous, who has two heads that hate each other. Zweilous evolves into Hydreigon—who only has ''one'' brain and two brainless heads for hands.
** I actually find that thought hilarious. Two quarreling heads? It's like they were brainless to begin with!
** [[Fridge Horror]] returns—judging by their behaviour, one may end up [[Too Dumb to Live|killing the other.]] Leaving a single brain. Would it be stunted, or evolve? Ghetsis [[Fridge Horror|has]] [[Nightmare Fuel|a]] [[The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard|Lv 54]] [[Omnicidal Maniac|Hydreigon.]]
* The TM for Toxic is found in the shallows in the middle of a mostly water route. A water route full of Ghost jellyfish.
* One trainer on Route 15 says that she's looking for Pokemon that have escaped from the Poke Transfer Lab. Notice how the whole northeast of Unova is full of Gen I-IV Pokemon. Yes, that's right: Unova's being overrun by invasive species that are probably wreaking havoc on the ecosystem now [[What the Hell, Player?|because you wanted to keep the Pokemon from your old games.]]
