This'll be my final update here until I start playing Black. I just beat the true Elite 4 and Alder, and over the past couple of days I also defeated Morimoto, Cynthia, found all of the Seven Sages (that actually can be found), caught Volcarona, and explored the entire region completely (minus Liberty Island). I haven't caught Victini, Zorua/Zoroark, Landorus or Kyurem yet, but I've attempted Kyurem twice and it struggled to death. I'm going to try at it again when I have my Breloom transferred over for Spore.
Now I guess all that's left, besides catching those five, is to complete my PokeDex, buy all of the TMs I'd passed up initially, and have some more fun with the Battle Subway.
As for my current team... One particular Pokemon, my Scrafty, was an invaluable part of my Elite 4 team. He basically destroyed 3 out of the four Elites and Alder, giving him oodles of level ups during my run. The fact that he was holding the Lucky Egg throughout the entire challenge didn't hurt either. ;D
IMO Cynthia has a stronger team than Alder. She gave me
hell, while Alder wasn't nearly as difficult. Mind you, I challenged Cynthia with level 59-60 Pokemon and had notably higher leveled Pokemon for Alder (especially my Scrafty), so I guess I can give him a break. :X

For awhile there I was starting to get bored of the post-main game stuff, but once my Pokemon reached level 55 or so things started turning really fun again. I've loved White, and while I'm not sure if Unova is my top favourite region - it's definitely up there. ♥
