Pokémon Black & White Coming This Year!

by the Pocket World team

Well… in Japan at least! Exciting news was announced today on the Pokémon Japan website. The first of the fifth generation Pokémon games will be released in Japan this Autumn.

Pokémon Black & White Coming This Year!Very little is known about Pokémon Black and Pokémon White… except that they are called Black and White and they are to be released on Nintendo DS. We’re guessing that they will include lots of brand new Pokémon from the fifth generation of monsters, the first ones being Zorua and Zoroark from the 13th Pokémon movie Phantom Champion: Zoroark. So, time to speculate! What would you like to see in the new Pokémon RPGs? Why not email us at pokemonworld@imagine-publishing.co.uk and we’ll do a feature packed with your ideas. Here are some logos to get all excited about…

      awsome!:)

    • james duggan said:

      I think that Nintendo have released far too many pokemon games. The stories are going to end up being quite similar.

    • CyberGW said:

      The screenshots of Serebii for this game look amazing! Can’t wait for more info!

    • megan said:

      i cant wait :-)

    • Nick said:

      All right… heres what we need
      - a variation of costumes to choose at the start so we dont all look the same and we can show our reall costumes in the union room.
      -some variation so we need not follow the same paths in the game mabye make its so that pokemon can grow levels through contests or races rarther than just by battleing.
      - make the game longer, more intriqute they are about 35-36 hours to complete hg/ss which is good but y not make it 50 or even 100, add extra storylines here and there make it a better game
      - looking at serebii . net the 3d ness of the new games seems fine ill enjoy playing with it.
      - Make it so we can get every pokeomon over the two games white and black much more fun getting them yourslfe then having to trade them over.
      - use the real team rocket jessie and james, they are by far the best villans ever
      -let your dad be in the game more like in ruby/saphire
      - let the main character meet ash and friends, not as red at the top of a mountain where he dosent talk, meet him like you would anoteer main character, mabye you help him, he could even be your rival.

      - make sure that we dont have to wait ages for the english version of the game and have to watch the japanease get it about 6 months ahead, make it fair, release it on the same day everywhere!

      thats all of my ideas for now ill keep adding more when i think of them!!!

    • Nick said:

      - id also like more control over the pokemon in battle scencs, let us control the pokemon so its not just luck if an attack hits, let us control them in the battle scencs.
      - also let us swim, all of the other people in the water can swim, why is it just us that has to surf?

    • Nick said:

      Also just as an aside, why is it balck and white, why isnt it topaz and amathyest and then onyx as the third.

      Also does the release of this game mean no Crystal remake?

    • Lugia34 said:

      wow that is awesome, i think this might mean some new legendry pokemon? i’m going to be the first person to buy this game you wait! ha ha ha.
      see ya!

    • Dawid said:

      I Can’t Wait! But I’m Wondering – I Have A DS Lite; Should I Save Up For The 3DS, Or Isn’t It Worth It?

    • LostMudkip said:

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xb1509_kNCM&feature=player_embedded

      Its like all 3d

      100 percent chance its gonna be on my birthday list

    • Nick said:

      Let us be villans, would be great fun having to be a team rocket agent :D

    • jacob said:

      do u know when will it be released in japan and australia

    • feralilgater rocks said:

      wow1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that is soo cool, when will it out and what is it all about????????????

      ps my favrote pokemon is feraligator

    • pokɐmaster itchy said:

      wow this is awesome but i agree with the other guy it should be topaz and amathyest but instead of onyx it couldbe titanium with a picture of arceus on the cover (thinking of it i wonder what the cover of these black & white games will be)
      i also think it would be cool if whenever you did an attack it showed a little scene or ecleast when you do those special moves only legendarys can do e.g sacred fire; and again i agree with the person who said we should be able to meet the main characters in the anime and i hope that like in every new pokɐmon game the graphics are better than the last one which i think will be pretty hard since hg and ss graphics were practically 3D in some all scenes.
      but overall i think this game or maybe the remake will be one of the greatest games in the decade but definetly wont be in the decade coming that will be some 7th or possibly 8th generation game if we get that far but I think of all the things i like this is my favorite i like this more than COOKIES man well C ya hope this helped give ya ideas for ur game peace out ppl 8-)

    • pokɐmaster itchy said:

      cool i didnt know i could do smily faces if u wanna do them the do this 8 – ) type that in but make sure there r no spaces i can also make a bunny by typin see (im not copyin and pastin im just talented plus i figured out wat to type wen i saw the pic of the rabbit (ok fine i did see it but i swear i didnt copy & paste honestly)i dont know if this will somehow turn into a smily face or a bunny smiley face but here goes
      ()_()

    • ss said:

      SWWWEEETT!!

      Can’t wait to see this released :-)

    • tiger eye124 said:

      when did this appear? its might be an April fools. any way even if it does exist it cant be for ds because when ever a gen comes out its usually for a new handheld.

    • brain said:

      hi guys
      pokemon black and white will be out in fall
      it will be out in europe in 2011
      if you go onto serebii.net it shows footage of the new game

      i think nintendo are now running out of ideas for pokemon because they used to call the games by the names of diamonds and minerals but now they call black and white which sounds too plain

      years will pass and pokemon will be just a name and wont really be known like all the other games left to fade away into history

    • megan said:

      i wonder if they are going to have new starter pokemon i think that they should do a compitition to design new pokemon for the game and the best 10 go in the game that would be cool and if there making it in 3d they will make it for ds lite to cos i dont need a new ds yet mine is still in good nick

    • gamergirl said:

      I really want to know more about the game! What is the story about the characters and what are their names! There is too much i want to know about this game!!!! :D

    • brain said:

      Hi everyone,
      Pokemon Black and White will be out this fall in Japan and 2011 in Europe.
      We are all excited about this new news and different features in the games to come, but to be honest I think that Nintendo are running out of ideas for Pokemon. They used to call their games by the names of diamonds and minerals but now they have called it boring Black and White.
      Like all games Pokemon will soon be just a name and will be forgotten, years will pass and technology will move on so like all the other games Pokemon will be forgotten and will be history.

    • tiger eye124 said:

      i think the 10 designed Pokemon is a good idea. then you can make an evolution of say, heracross or gyrados. That way Nintendo will see what type of Pokemon we like and this will create even more Pokemon. think of it as starting a family tree. Also i think they should make so that the Pokemon can learn like 10 moves and have up to three types instead of two.
      personally,i like pokemon that are fast, good defence and have killer moves (like gyrados and electivire)

    • Nick said:

      The Game is not a April Fools, it will be coming out on the DS and yes there will be a brand new load of pokemon, no details released yet go to Serebii.net for the latest news

    • jakers said:

      Yawn they shou;d spend more time making new pokemon games like this and stop making remakes
      pokemon soulsilver was a waiste of time

    • darren said:

      i hope there is an evolution on lapras,aerodactyl…and also hope that there are pokemons with three types and four evolutions lol…

    • Bobby said:

      i can not wait for this game! i’ve seen some pictures on serebii.net, and i just hope that we can still walk with our poke’s. and i really REALLY hope that they have some new type combos like fire ghost or electric ice. the fire types also need a few more poke’s and they need to be somewhat decent unlike many others… any one agree?

    • pokemaster said:

      oh shut up jakers

    • ilja said:

      LOL another game :p
      I hope you can travel to the other pokemon countries and you have to collect 40 badges :p:p;)

    • Abbie said:

      i agree im already half-way through soal silver and can’t wait to get heart-gold!

    • cyrus said:

      I’m glad to see this come out but I’m hoping it has all the legendarys in it and that they bring in more new evolutions of pokemon like plusle and minun or mawile

    • cyndaqail girl said:

      i cant wate to get

    • Feraligaiter said:

      sweeet

    • danny said:

      what will the starter pokemon be like

    • danny said:

    • kim + SS + cyndaquil + Johto!! said:

      cool! wonder how many pokemon there will be on the national dex!

      Please even if you do not agree with me could you comment on my idea.

    • megan said:

      brain when you think about it pokemon used to be named after colours red , green , blue , yellow so i dont mind the name black and white also i dont think pokemon will fade away yet ther is still alot of people who like pokemon :-)

    • Zoroark said:

      Cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
      wot starters will there be!!!!!!!!???????????????

    • Zorualord said:

      I think that instead of Black and White, they should have Amber and Amethyst, and then a remake called Quartz, because the colour thing died ages ago, they should all be named after precious stones/ metals!

    • xguy said:

      what region will this be set in?
      i am exited about the new pokemon

    • Owen said:

      Pokemon black and White will be auwsome!

      I cant wait till it comes out in Australia!

    • Ciaran said:

      I’m really lookng forward to this game!!!

    • Garchomp said:

      I would disagree with Brain’s comments, Pokémon isn’t running out of ideas, the fact that they called it black and white is because ever generation the names get more ‘precious’ if you will from red to gold then to ruby now to pearl and even platinum, platinum being one of the rarest and most precious metal on earth. You can’t really do much better than platinum, so an ideal situation would be to take it back to the colors so they can advance through rarity again, after all if we kept going for cool sounding metal, we would go through the periodic table rapidly.

      To address the ‘in years to come Pokémon will be forgotten’ matter, look at other major franchises like Mario, Final Fantasy and Zelda, these games have been around for ages! and they keep getting better, with no sign of them being left behind and ‘forgotten’ about, and seen as Pokémon is the number 2 biggest gaming franchise in the world I don’t foresee any time soon where Pokémon will become ‘history’.

    • zoroark said:

      i hope zorua will be one of the starters

    • Emzo said:

      Great new Pokemon games! I wonder if the storyline will be similar to previous games or it might be something completely different.

    • EEVEE said:

      i bet you get zorua same way as you got riolu

    • Rayquaza said:

      When I read pokemon mag in Japanese from my uncel who travels . It shows tht zorua won’t be a starter . Sorry it’s da true.

    • megan said:
