Pokemon Black and White

[Valiere]

Since we've got a lot of Pokemon fans on this forum, I thought we'd need a thread for this.

The 5th generation Pokemon game for the DS will be Pokemon Black and White versions.



Here's a video with some scans from a Japanese mag:

Zorua and Zoroark, the only new Pokemon I'm aware of right now.

Further updates as events warrant!

Ebony and Ivory. Living in perfect harmony.

[Bluhman]

Dammit. It's not Black and White with Pokemon creatures. Unless peter monyleux actually is involved in this, in which case it will be vastly overrated and hyped.

[Pokecat]

Zorua and Zoroark looks like they can be a dark type, and maby a fighting type too.

Oh wait, this isn't facebook.

Er...  I so can't wait for this.  When is the release date for the US?  Or is it unknown?

[SaiKar]

Unknown.

I'll be all over this. Hopefully I'll have completed my HG dex before then >_>

[fruckert]

Apparently it's going to be for the 3DS.
*angry face*

[A Forgotten Legend]

The.. what?

[Archem]

Apparently it's going to be for the 3DS.
*angry face*

No. It's already been confirmed as a DS game.

Disappointing for those of us expecting something mind-blowingly new.

[fruckert]

Well, that's comforting.
Maybe I'll actually buy it this time around

Because that 3d city looks like it'd be hell to emulate.

Apparently the moonrunes on the website hint at them shaking up the formula. I'm expecting the same game I've played five or so times, only with 100 new Pokemon I'll never use.

Also, for those too lazy to look at Val's youtube-

Aw shucks. There goes the name ideas I had like six years ago.

Seriously though. There was a time when I brought my Game Boy everywhere. Pokemon never left the cartridge slot. It was Pokemon 24/7. Forget looking both ways before crossing the street, my eyes were glued to the HP bar of the shiny Sentret I was about to knock out and shove into a ball.

But now... Unless they pull some crazy miracle ****... I don't know. They're going to have to change things up a bit to get any interest out of me at this point.

[HobomasterXXX]

knock out and shove into a ball.

You must be confused.

[Archem]

No no, he's correct.

That's how I've been doing it for years.

I hope it still has the GTS PKM exploit. It's so far the only way to send Pokes from one game to another with only one DS (and a computer.)
