Nintendo of Japan Announces Pokemon Black/White, also Speculation Thread

Wasn't there an E4 member, a black aloha girl in some past gen game?

Yeah, there was: Phoebe.

From the Hoenn League. Gen. III.

But that's why I said explicitly black, and not ambiguously brown.

Oh, alright, thanks for correction. If they're making more black people I expect lolhueg lips from Japanese character designers / Ken Sugimori(?)

Another one!

Scans of Emonga, the flying squirrel Pokemon, have been released today. Electric/Flying type.

Furthermore, the latest images from this month's CoroCoro magazine seem to demonstrate that the in-game clock has been enhanced to create seasonal changes in the Pokemon world, shown here to have effect on the appearance of certain Pokemon.

The idea is neat. I like the expansion on multiple and exotic type combinations. The only thing that I hate is the fact that I don't think Bambi will be a good Pokemon to win the Pokemon League with. It's like someone walked into the series AGAIN and said "let's make them all fuzzy wuzzy and adorable" instead of "let's make these things look badass." I really think Nintendo America (or whatever they're called) should've done this project.

On from the awful critic to the stuff I hope is improved from HGSS:

-The Designers figure out that amping up Pokemon with 4x weaknesses and randomass attacks is not balance. A Weavile from the E4 KO'd my entire team pretty much (except Ampharos) because it had every type of attack that exploits 4x weaknesses (except ground). It was faster than Rayquaza (which was an entire 10 levels higher). Now I know it's supposed to be challenging, but that was just ridiculous. An Umbreon also used ???Curse twice and Payback once to nearly faint Rayquaza (yes Rayquaza hit it first but I didn't think Umbreons were that strong).

-CAN SOMEONE PLEASE LIMIT THE TURNS SANDSTREAM RUNS AFTER THE POKEMON WHO STARTED IT HAS FAINTED/RETURNED? Thanks.

-I really hope the next game allows ways to have trade-evolution Pokemon accessable without trading.

-Make all Wi-Fi events accessible to English versions as well.

So... what is that about? 3DS support?

The game isn't that heavy on 3D images, so I wonder what they'd do with it.

I honestly cannot wait to homebrew with the 3ds.

That's just fan art. Though I wish the game was designed for 3DS... but it's not.
