Pokemon Black and White NA just Announced

[Master Mo]

I`m gonna be playing Black version I guess... Reshiram looks bad-ass

Seriously very cool design.

I don`t see any problem with this being released so "early", since the latest versions (Platinum, HeartGold and SoulSilver) all were remakes or expansions and the last real Pokemon game, which can be considered as being a new generation of Pokemon were Diamond and Pearl, which were released late 2006 (Japan)/mid 2007 (America/Europe)...

My favorite theory by far is that they represent Order and Chaos.

 

[Anakir]

Those pokemons look good. They don't give much of a pokemon feel to them but at least it isn't shitty looking like the starters.

Now I wonder why the white legendary is the legendary of the black version and viseversa. Isn't should b the other way around? White with white black with black?

My favorite theory by far is that they represent Order and Chaos.

I think it's more along the lines of a reboot for the franchise. We went from colors, to metals which are also colors, to precious gems, to even more gems. Things started going wrong around the first gems. So, they go back to colors. It is possible that they add a light element to contrast dark (weak to each other, or maybe resistant), to make more of a change in the game. That would also bring in room for more change involving the story.

Zekrom look sweet

the other just looks weird :/

 

[bazzi_h]

I always wondered why when they created the dark type, they didn't make a light type.

 

[DeMoN]

A light type is too cliche.
And I think it's weird that they listed the Japanese names for an English promotional poster. Is this picture official?

 

[Thoob]

Pokémon are starting to look more and more like Digimon each generation.

 

[Gundam Eclipse]

I will take White just for Zekrom. It looks bad ass : O

 

[XXLANCEXX]

wow they look actually better than D/P/PT legendary pokemon
i might be content with these ones
I like them both... better break out the two
DS lites for them both

 

[Laxus]

WOW.... The legendary's look pretty awesome.

 

[Razor1993]

I hope they wil have their own COOL attacks like Dialga and Palkia!

 

[gameboy13]

YAAAAAY! 3D Pokeymanz on the DS!

 

[Forstride]

They don't really look like Pokemon anymore. They look awesome, but if I didn't see them labeled Pokemon in the image, I would've never guessed it.

 

[FlameTakuya]

Isn't this the first time the English names of Pokemon are out before their Japanese ones?

But other than that, I think Reshiram looks freaking awesome. Imma get it.

 

[ehayes427]

oh hells yeah!!!!

 

[Mr.Positive]

Isn't this the first time the English names of Pokemon are out before their Japanese ones?

But other than that, I think Reshiram looks freaking awesome. Imma get it.

JP and ENG sites updated at the same time. Their names are the same internationally.

 

[FlameTakuya]

Oh well then in that case this is most probably the fastest time English names have been revealed then. Same time as the Japanese ones. lol

 

[Hiz_95]

Oh and the new legendary pokeys are out too.
Zekrom looks like the stuff of nightmares, and the other one looks like a digimon.

I reckon they both look like Digimon
