Apparently, there's new pictures on Serebii and one of them has a building with a sign with a shuriken on it on top of it. Someone posted about it a page or two ago.
I went back on Serebii to check what you said. It sorta does look like a shuriken, though it looks like someone tried to pry a Pokeball open with it. If that building is actually a gym, then that's one impressive building for a gym.
 
It could be some sort of Battle Tower,ot the regions giant shopping center.

Yeah, now that I've actually looked at the image, it really doesn't look like a shuriken at all. It just looks like the symbol for Pokemon Black. I'm thinking this could be something like the GTS.
 
Whatever it is it must hold some great importance to the game,or else they wouldnt have released it,it could be the bad guys secret hideout,and the symbol could be a company.
On that topic,who do you think the new bad guys are going to be,somone new,or good ol Team Rocket.

I was getting a distinctly Department Store-esque vibe from that building. Since the new region seems more advanced/edgy than the others, I'd say the symbol could be a cutting-edge logo for the store, although there's also a good chance that building could be a battle tower too. Regardless, it doesn't strike me as a gym.
 
I think its immpossible for it to be a gym because gyms have a consistent theme,and only one place has giant sky scrapers,and theres a desert,ice land,and forest,so it must be the department store if its in the games biggest city,that or the GTS.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it is a gym. I mean, that's just the outside of the gym anyway--we have no idea what it looks like inside (and thus the arguments over what it is), so it's quite possible it has some theme inside, especially since the exteriors of gyms have had a tendency of being more generic than the interior anyway.

Plus, there's this:

As can be seen, the symbol on the outside of this building looks a lot like the statutes that can be seen at the entrance of the bug gym. So, it looks to me (at least for now anyway) that the symbol is the new symbol for gyms, and that this building is the Hiun City Gym.

I just dont think it can be a skyscrapper in every city,but I see it what you mean that the styles are similar,thats amazing that you noticed. So its almost 100% confirmed theres another Bug gym.
 
Agreeing with Naxte here, given the pokeball statues both inside and out, as well as the trainers inside the building. AFAIK, cities don't really contain too many pokemon battles unless they are located within a gym. And bug seems like a decent type choice - looks like this time the Fire starter gets an advantage at the first gym (gasp), while water is neutral and grass is weak. September 18th can't arive soon enough.
 
Huh hey, considering we have an idea of Zorua/Zoroark's base stats and that we had a battle with Zoroark using Night Burst... did anyone calculated its base power?
 
Has anyone considered that the third version will have, rather than an inbetween/neutral color, a vibrant one? What if the legendary was some kind of golden? Would that be too random with a black one and white one? Now yes, it's unlikely seeing as we have pokemon gold, but I don't think they they would use something as bland as grey/clear.

Edit: I don't care much for those rumors, but I'm really feeling a likely pokemon Jade.

I agree, I don't see "Clear" happening at all, and "Gray" is unlikely, imho. However, that's not to say they will completely change the theme of the name. For example, has anyone considered the 3rd version could be named "Slate" version, or something similar? It's a much more appealing way of saying gray, and stands a lot more chance if you ask me.

And Naxte, thanks for the info... can't wait. I also agree with you about the building now, after spying the same symbol inside the building!
 
There's a chance that that symbol is common in Isshu, although, it does seem likely that that's the gym.

As for the third game, Slate sounds much better than Grey and Jade sounds cool, too, even if it has nothing to do with Black and White.
 
at this point i am just sick of poison types.

no really, they are just annoying, you get muk who is only ohkoed by psychic and EQ, you got weezing who is almost immune to physical atacks not named psychic cut and zen headbutt.

you get drapion who sweep you and your mother with SD boosted cross poison and crunch.

you get skuntank who just stop all non-hp ground psychics in NU cold.

wait, does poison sucks that much? the cool thing about the poison type is that most pokemons that are part poison(or just poison) often get amazing movepools.
 
I feel like steel is to good against other types,it should be all about the defensive,and not be a supporting typed used to make something immune to everything *cough*Empoleon*cough*
 
wow fuck this, i think i came through all holes of my body after seeing this picture.

it look like the guy with green hair is actually a super evil guy with powers or some random shit, that or he can glow in the dark.

the main character face picture is specially amazing, he resemble Red if you think for a sec.
