Every time I look at the Legendary for White (the Black one), Psycho Mantis jumps to mind
Pokemon's Fifth Generation

-
Well hopefully now they won't remind you after every turn that it's raining/sunny/hailing/sandstorming/etc.
They should just have the animation running throughout.
Oh yes, please! I hate getting pulled into a battle only to have it last twice as long because "the Sandstorm is raging, some pokemon got hit by said sandstorm!"
@Badass:
There's sure to be a rip of it, no? Maybe even a sub? I gots to see it, if only for seeing Wotter's evolved form in full. :silly:
Pokemon subs are usually found here.
-
Yes they should sub the first episode as usual but they never sub everything.
-
Wait. It's in September? I thought it was this Tuesday. Dammit.
-
Wow, they showed a preview of the New 'Black & White' Anime Saga?
There's a replacement for Dawn (as usual) BUT a new male third wheel.
I wonder if that means Brock is leaving too? Unless four of them travel together.Also, I think Team Rocket might be getting a new addition ..
-
Serebii has some pics of unconfirmed new Pokemon figures. The one looks like the Best Wishes sketch, so I'm leaning toward those 2 figures being real, but like Serebii says, hard to confirm figure pics. The green one looks weird and lame to me, the one from the BW sketch looks cool though.
@Flux: I thought Brock being replaced was confirmed a while ago? Or at least rumored…
-
@Badass:

No, Tuesday is when Pokemon airs in Japan, September is when the new season/series should begin in Japan.
-
Right. But, isn't there going to be a sneak preview of it earlier?

That I don't know. I assume there will be but have no idea when.

Oh crap, was it? I've been away for a while …
Meh, Originals can't stay forever but it's sad to see him go.Is it for good ? :sad:
-
I dunno, but his replacement had better be kickass to make up for the lack of Brock we'll be having.
-
^ Just looked stuff about B&W Anime up. Sad face :(
But I like this rumour going around that "Gym Battles" might be being scrapped.
Someone speculated they be replaced (atleast ONLY in Isshu) by Quests.I think that'd be a really fresh direction to go in.
The battles, when it comes down to it. After so many, just really end up rehashing, and rehashing.
Quests qould give it a more adventurous feel and a brand new dynamic to the show. -
We might get quests but the Gyms are still there, we saw pictures of two already and trailer, the rollercoaster one and the honey one.
I still like the gyms its not by taking them off that it will make the game better but yes introducing quests.

That second one REALLY looks like a Digimon.. We better start getting some more badass Pokemon and not so many baby Pokemen
Now, on the subject of anime, I do not normally watch the Pokemon anime because I am not a faggot
Just fucking around, but I still don't get why you people love the anime so much. And before you get all crazy on me and shout at me for me being a hardcore wannabe poser who doesn't like Pmn because it's for TEH KIDZ LOL NO ITS NOT ITS FOR TEH MATURE ANIME VIEWER I'm not hating on it because of its target audience being kids, I'm hating on it because it turned to a steaming pile of regurgitated elephant diarrhea.

I actually agree with you. I stopped watching the anime like ages and ages ago. But recently some people I know have been watching and watching and talking about it. So I decided to get more involved with Pokemon, I mean, I'll be honest, I don't actually follow the current series, or know which point they're at, other than it's ending in September as they're reaching the end of Sinnoh - however I still care deeply about the show. But yes, as you said it's really getting to the point where it's rehash, rehash, rehash at points.
It brings back happy memories

I don't either, but you gotta admit, Brock was decent. And I'm excited to see whatever I can of Black/White before it gets here in spring, so I'm considering watching Best Wishes. Hence, disappointed that the only decent lead imo is getting replaced.

I dont love the anime the writing is as bad as it can but this region was actually much better then the older ones, i gotta say i mostly watch Pokemon for the battles, league and gyms but i am aware of the rest of the story.
-
The first 2 or 3 seasons were the shit, though, and much more original (might have lost a bit in the 3rd though). If the new Black White season is anything like the originals, I'd probably check it out.
-
Not really thats just nostalgie if you compare the Kanto/Johto writing to AG and DP if your not an insane person you notice it actually improve a lot, they are still a lazy bunch though (writers and animators) and they are also restricted by working their story based on the marketability(dunno if this even exists) or not of certain pokemons makings teams,etc they wouldnt even evolve things before and now they actually do it Ash only didnt evolve two pokemons wich was Buizel and a Gible that he got really late in the region after sending his Gliscor to train with an old man(biggest error they made this region imo).
BW is said to have a new vibe to the series dunno what they meant i will have to check it out to know.
-
They'll never have four main characters because that would require way too much additional animation and voicing. The budget for Pokemon's never been anything nice.

They cant handle 3 characters theres no need for more, the budget is small atleast i doubt it is and small isnt a excuse for bad character development, slacking wanting to make original plots, etc.
They had in Hoenn Max and Brock didnt do anything of importance.

:blink: They did it in Hoenn.
EDIT: Getsuga beat me to it
-
I hope this new bad has replaced Zubat and Geodude in the caves.
I don't watch the anime. But I usually have a quick skim through the episode pics on serebii.
-
I hope this new bad has replaced Zubat and Geodude in the caves.
Well there's this new bat and a mole, so I have really high hopes that Zubat and Geodude are sitting this gen out (or at least not being the only things in its caves).
-
While on it get a new shellfish and get rid of Tentacool, the evil trio of Tentacool, Zubat and Geodude has tormented us for too long.
-
Don't forget Magikarp and Onix.
-
-
He is. But he's in every game and is just everywhere XD
Although it would make the 'Old Rod' obsolete XD
-
Yes but Onix and Magikarp dont appear 80% of the times like the evil trio xd.
-
Sad to disappoint you guys, but getting rid of Magikarp would also mean that we'd also get rid of arguably the best "standard" water type there is. Atleast I think that it would frankly be odd to get Gyarados only after the national dex.
Not to mention that the 'Trade only evolving quartet' has been around in every gen since the first one.
-
We are talking about Tentacool, Geodude and Zubat, yes they wont disapear probably but with the addition of the mole and the bat we wont get them as often when going truth some cave or sea.
I am 90% sure that they will be still in on the region dex but we are joking i dont really mind it lol, i love the 3 lines actually.
-
I know you were talking about those. I just replied to the few "get rid of magikarp 'n' old rod" posts. With that said, I must agree with you; I hate tentacools and zubats. Although I am sure that if they'd be removed and replaced with some other creatures, which appear as often as the aforementioned two, people would eventually, surprisingly quickly even, develope a similar hate toward the new replacements. I sure know I did so in Sinnoh. Uh those freaking Bidoofs, brrrr..
I just hope that they would make a vast amount of new fish and pokemon living in caves so that there would be more variation in the appearing pokemon. If some species appears more than 40% of the time in some certain place, people will surely get annoyed.
Sadly, GameFreak probably just thinks about competitive playing and the balance of certain types. They should go for a more realistic enviroment with approx 50% of insect and grasslike pokemon (or ridiculousy more if going for a really realistic one), 30% of birdlike pokemon and 20% of mammal and other -like pokemon.

I'll go for gameplay and balance over "realism" any day of the year.
Especially in a game where monsters spit fireballs and lightning.

Agreed. Crobat is pretty much one of the better pokes I ever raised. Never bothered with a Graveller/Golem or a Tentacruel tho. Geodude has been against Onix since very early in every generation after the first (was Onix in Gen 3 before National? I cannot remember.)
I do think we need a few more Rock pokemon tho. Hell. I'd be happy if Aron and Nosepass became a lot more common.
As for the Old Rod/Magikarp. I have no beef with it really. I'd just rather see earlier access to the other Water Pokemon to be honest.

Yet another picture of the green roedent, im starting to wonder wich of the two willl be the new ratata the green one or the chinchila.
!
Btw saw this info on http://projectpokemon.org/
! The official Japanese website for Pokemon revealed that players will be able to upload their save file to the official website and be able to play from Internet connected personal computers. The site goes on to say that any changes made on the uploaded save file will be applied to the cartridge as well.
The official site stresses that this is additional content and is not needed to play or enjoy the game.Holy shiet if this is true its pretty awesome.
-
i think he is going to evolve in the mantis pokemon
-
Hum it looks like a little rat not an insect XD but dunno, need a clear picture or a sprite.
-
I agree, they are starting to look more and more weird and Digimon.
But I guess they must if the series is to continue. -

That is pretty cool, especially if there are certain things that you can only do while connected.

I have a felling the green rodent thing might be the base stage for this game's psuedo-legendary. It is just a feeling though.

Anyone goes for gameplay and balance over "realism" as far as Pokémon is concerned, even I do. It was merely a poor example for a solution of the 'too little variation'-issue, although just creating more pokemon living in caves and in the oceans and adjusting the appearance rates would solve the problem. Yet I guess that the annoyance is a part of every pokemon game and is something that is impossible to get rid of.
And I agree about that green critter. It looks like a Larvitar-2 with potentially good evolutions to me.
-
Green "rodent" looks kinda like a dinosaur to me though.

Guys the demo that will be playable for some days it seems in a Japanese fair as started, we got some leaks already :P.
Looks like a cool bird, maybe Mamepato evolution, seems it called Hatobo, we should get pictures and videos soon i remember we got some videos from the D/P in the same event 4
years ago.@serebii:
On Japanese forum 2ch, a member has posted an image from a demo of the new games, Pokémon Black & White. This demo was said contained a batch of new Pokémon including the evolutions of the starters in the Pokédex and many more. They have posted a picture of the Pokémon, said to be called Hatooboo (ハトーポー). They also posted an image of another Pokémon, but blanked out the image and the name. We also got a picture of the floor with the demos in, which appears to show several new Pokémon, unfortunately we cannot make any out. We'll bring more as it comes so keep checking back
Incoming evolutions leaks probably :D, well we just need pokabu since we saw the other 2 already, my decision shall be made in the next few hours/days XD.
Plus Corcoro is coming out soon so we are getting some more new pokemons art, probably those in the trailer and Koromori and Green thingie.
-
-
Om expecting videos by tomorrow hopefully.
@serebii:
There is also a note from the same person who provided the images that there is an area on the map that is different depending on the version. These areas are Black City (ブラックシティ) and White Fortress (ホワイトフォレトス).
-
White Fortress has a nice ring to it,but Black City? :pouty:
-
Black City? The South Bronx?
-
Black City? Atlanta?
Black City? Detroit?
White Fortress? Las Vegas?
