Now that you said that, I got an awesome idea.
How about you have to travel through time in the game and that various pokemon can only be caught in certain time periods or certain evolutions can only be obtained through certain periods of time.
That'd be awesome. Too bad it won't happen.
Hope their selection of Pokemon is better than Magma/Aqua. And Galactic, for that matter.
Yeah, same here.
Team Black/Night = Dark types
Team White/Day = Normal types
There won't be no "Team Magma > Team Aqua".
That's the reason why I cheered for Magma, despite the fact Aqua were Pirates, yet, Magma "looked like ninjas".
But they wore hoodies, which I love to wear.
Oh, and… Archie > Maxie.
Also… Fire > Water
But, when I think about it.
Of course, Team White will have ALOT of Pokémon to choose from compared to Team Black.
This is where 10+ "Dark-type" Pokémon come in Game Freak! :getlost:
To those going on about race: You ever think about the Yin and Yang symbol? What colors are on there, pray tell? ;)
No actually this games is about black and white people, secretly.
Reminds me of this:
Well, Asia in general is big on the 'no true evil' concept. The philosophy of balance is widespread as well, so all that may be considered evil is just as necessary and inherently 'good' as things that we might consider to be righteous and vice versa. I'm guessing the duality will be played out in their designs, but not in their behaviors. They'll both probably follow the neutral trend of version legendaries as CCC suggested.
And that's perfectly fine. In fact that's even better since we wouldn't want one game to be "good" and the other "evil." The whole balance of dark and light thing is perfect. That's pretty much what I was getting at.
To those going on about race: You ever think about the Yin and Yang symbol? What colors are on there, pray tell? ;)
Exactly. The contrast of black and white, dark and light, is as old as civilization.
There was a lack of music to the official page. It seemed eerily quite. I guess the 3rd game of this generation will be Gray/Grey? O.x
~Kyoujin Pirates Treasurer~
Yeah, it's painfully obvious it's going to be Black/White/Grey.
Reminds me of this:
Fuck. I was about to mention that.
I hope there's a mechanic in this game where you can use weather moves outside of battle. For example, make it so that certain pokemon only come out when it's sunny, or when it's rainy, or when it's hailing, or during a sandstorm.
MIB and Jacob confirmed for Legendary pokemon.
Expect some sort of Yin/Yang pokemon….
Seems appealing, but it sounds like they kind of ran out of names. I wonder after this one are they gonna make anymore generations. Unless, they make something like Pokemon Jade and Chrome.@KingofSarus:
Yeah, it's painfully obvious it's going to be Black/White/Grey.
True.
The time traveling me idea would be amazing, they did it with a Zelda game, why not Pokemon?

Yes.
That'll be frickin' awesome.
It can act like Sweet Scent or the radio on HeartGold/SoulSilver.
Pokémon Black and White? Why didn't they just call it Pokémon We're Out of Ideas or so.
@Tijnn.:

I got dibs on So Version.
Who think Zoroark is the mascot of "Pokémon Black" and Zoroark will have a rival that's a Normal-type with an pre-evolve form, just like him, as the mascot of "Pokémon White"?
If you can play with a black trainer i'll buy it.
@Yonkou#3:

That isn't a bad idea.

Yep .
If only he was alive to see this… :cwy:
The title makes me think of three things immediately:
1. Another video game about animals called "Black & White"
2. Randian psychology (and Steve Ditko)
3. A Three Dog Night song.
Yeah…doubt this is what they were going for with the titles
Am I the only one who didn't think of race when I saw the new games?

I don't think Zoroark will be on the box… That spot is usually reserved for legendaries/starters/media whores.

Zoroark can be a "media whore".
He has a movie coming out.
Zoroark can also be a legendary Pokémon.
Lucario had that potential… but failed.
Zoroark can be a "badass" Manaphy.
Seeing as how he is a part of an evolutionary line, I don't think so.
I really hope this game picks a darker route and gives us new badass starters: Dark/Psychic/Fighting.

Does anyone else think that Black and White (After titles like Gold, Ruby, Diamond) sounds a bit underwhelming?
Also, it would be funny if they changed the US titles to avoid race.
Pokemon Dark
Pokemon Light.

Yeah, I think so as well, but I was just saying.
I recalled seeing something from Matsuda saying, they're making this Pokémon game "different" from others.

Nah, I don't want them to do that.
But, I'd love to see those types as secondaries.
1st Type: Grass/Fire/Water
2nd Type: Fighting/Psychic/Dark
I thought this would be interesting.

A little.

After witnessing the Game Corner in the English version? I believe it.
Its on the NDS which is good. Its a first, that we get 2 new generations on 1 games console. I can't wait for this. Hopefully there will be tons of new features, improvements and the ability to access older regions in the game.
I wish Pokémon Black and White was for the "Nintendo 3DS".

Then we could have Hydro Pumps leaping at us through the screen!

I think Europe is actually the one to blame for that.
The idea of time travel or using weather effects outside of battle sound neat. Probably won't happen, but still an interesting idea. I hope they don't make Munchlax so ridiculously difficult to find this time, 'cause I want a Snorlax on my team!
Of course!
Now, if they do some stupid shit… like brown. lmao
I see what you did there.
After witnessing the Game Corner in the English version? I believe it.
What happened with the game corner?
Also, this game better be good, as it's the last Pokemon game I'm buying.

They removed the slot machines in favor of a minesweeper-like card flipping game. Rather bland, but I actually managed to do better at it than I've ever done with the slots.
Pokemon Black and White ??? Totally awesome.
Sudoku game where you can use actual skill to win? Or slot machine thats all random chance and no matter how many hours you play, there's no guarantee to win, and in fact, you can lose money?
I'll take the Sudoku minigame anyday. Its way more fun besides.
@ZeArmyOfHalen:
You know this game probably won't do anything innovative or new in anyway whatsoever but who the hell gives a shit. Pokemon's a big cow and it keeps getting milk but goddamn it it's some mighty fine-tasting milk and as long as it ain't spoiled I'll keep drinking it.
What he said. Many times.
lol everyones gonna choose black.
HAHA yup i will indeed be buying black you just know when you see the titles haha people are atracted to the word or something, blame Sasuke.
Anyway i think the games will be the same as usual not difering much between them like ppl said above but i dont know since the guys at gamefreak said this one was going to be so diferent that it wouldnt even feel like it was pokemon or something like this. They usually put some new things in the metagame wich make big diferences in battle but i dont know if the changes are going to be on the metagame or on the game in general.
And for those who said pokemon is the same thing always it isnt , pokemon isnt about i gotta catch them all since genaration 3 imo with the natures and battle items and gen 4 who brought the physical and special separation, etc the online play is pretty cool and competitive people who think its the same thing as in red and blue never played the new versions clearly and shouldnt input your opinion in that matter.
@Nobodyman- Yeah theres too many water pokemon i hope the new land is a fucking wasteland, then a desert then a wasteland then a desert and it could have a little lake to so we can get ourselves a Psyduck to surf, fire pokemon were completelly ignored last region there was only Magmortar, Heatran and the starter but i guess water pokemons are easier to create there so many fishes that it shouldnt be hard to be inspired on doing one and yup Finneon looks just like a Guppi as Goldeen looks just like a goldfish also.
Pokemon X/Y ingame name: Pedro
3DS FC : 1547 5213 7769 - NNID : SunGodKizaru Switch: SW-7487-5553-2501
Well the mascot is usally a legenary and i hope and believe Zoroark is a normal pokemon so he shouldnt be the mascot he will work as Lucario worked for the 4gen.
I hope trainers have 6 pokemons in this game atleast after the 4th badge i always though it was fucking retarded fightning trainers with only 3 pokemons when im in Victory Road or something more advanced.
@Crossword- i usually bought shit instead of using the machines lol now i cant even buy them because they only have the stupid minigame.
i hope the new land is a fucking wasteland, then a desert then a wasteland then a desert
Colosseum and XD.

FINALLY a return to color themed games, it's been far too long!!

Aren't gold and silver colors?
So they decided on Black and white!
It's pretty tough working for nintendo and having to pull out new stuff for every new installment…

@Cyan:

Colors that are based on two elements from the periodic table. And besides, that was Generation II.

And IV. If you stretch it, pearl could be called a color.
@Cyan:

You're counting HeartGold and SoulSilver, remakes of the original games, as a "return" to the color-themed games? :wassat: And Pearl as a color? Yeah, that's REALLY stretching it.
@Cyan:
Aren't gold and silver colors?
You could argue. Purple is a color, silver is more of an element to me. A mineral per say. They've been going with mineral based names for a few years now regardless.

Yeah, that's the same way like real life.
That shit ain't easy, but to some people, it was some what… fun.
I actually played Voltorb Flip again. I gotten good at it, but it's so boring to me.
If you so happened to suck ass at Slot Machines, then you could do this!
i usually bought shit instead of using the machines lol now i cant even buy them because they only have the stupid minigame.
