No, it's a text file. Noone has made a patch yet because so far noone has been able to edit the in-game text reliably.
What is it for? because it wont open for me....and do you think i should post the download link above??

the link should direct you to my mediafire folder where I'm keeping the guides. One file is a Microsoft office 2007 file (.docx) and the other is a plain text file formatted for Gamefaqs. I can make the docx file into a .doc file if anyone wants it.

its a text file, it'll open in any text program, mac or pc.

its a list of all the translated parts of pokemon black and white,

ie: like this...


Bug - Attack Order - こうげきしれい
Bug - Bug Bite - むしくい
Bug - Bug Buzz - むしのさざめき
Bug - Defend Order - ぼうぎょしれい
Bug - Fury Cutter - れんぞくぎり



so the translators know what to look out for when translating the game for us!
its very very well done! well worth a look!


@samjef11, lol, nice comment, made me laugh

Hello everyone, I think I have another way of going about the translation. So I have been googling around and found out that you can use a OCR(Optical Character Recognition) program to identify which Japanese characters are on the screen then use translation software to convert it to english. I already tested it and in was able to translate most of the text(not perfectly but enough to understand).I just need help with making a program that can do this in realtime. I know its sounds like a daunting task but I think its possible and if its successful it could be used on future games. I just want your opinions on this idea.Also good job to those working on the translations. Well thats my two cents, first post WOOT!


I used this OCR to detect the characters: http://maggie.ocrgrid.org/nhocr/
Try it out, just screencap the text and upload it
Note: it may not be exact

so your saying it will translate a screenshot by recognizing the japanese text on screen
Yes, but you have the edit the screenshot so that the text is the only part, unless there was someway to select what part of the screen it would analyze.
