Hah, you quoted me from about 100 pages back or so! Anyhow, I like your idea about the city, but having trainers walk around would make it hard to catch up to each other to battle. Rather, the union room idea with stationary trainers to battle would be perfectly satisfactory. Lets just cross our fingers that they implemented some form of battle restrictions. I don't want to fight 6 Kyogres on one team!

Not to mention the processing power. I know only a little about computers but I'm pretty sure the DS can't handle it (the moving city, not a union room). As for restrictions, with the random battle things thats coming up, they might make it like the battle tower: item clause, legend restrictions, and that stuff.

The Union Room was intended to make people meet others and battle, battling NPC's there would be dumb.

Also, making the DS running at a lower no. of frames per sec (maybe 20/sec instead of 30) might help with the processing.

Eh, the guys hair is tinted green, but it's not FULL ON GREEN. I think he's just the rival, and his name will just be white. He wants to beat the champion obviously...

I mean, the girl in GSC was named Kris (Crystal duh), so I could see the girl being named after the third game in the series, or just having a totally new name.

I think a better example would be DPP where the main guy is Diamond and "Barry" is Pearl because they could've picked the girl as Pearl, but they decided to use her as Platinum. This could be the same case.

According to Pokebeach, he is the same as this guy
black-white-character-3.jpg

But is it me, or in the first pic he looks kinda younger, 'brighter', and kinda different eye color (though could be just the shading..), either way, he definitely looks like the rival, and supported by the phrase he says 'I'll be better than the champion'

He looks like he's related to the 'rival', maybe we get the rival is the son of an evil team like we did before, though I hope it's kind of different this time, like the rival being his younger brother or something.

On a side note, is this Surf?

Looks nice regardless :)
 
I was at my Gamestop and they had the boxart for the english versions of Black and White, so I took my pictures:

Not sure if the box art was already known for the English versions, but if it wasn't, then here it is.
 
Holy shit on a sandwich...

The rival guy says "I will be better than the champion."

I think that scene with the person opening his/her eyes and with the crown-looking thingy might be part of the intro. But that scene talking to the green guy is wicked different. Pokemon has never been like that before. It looks like Black and White and going to be completely and totally different from the other games, after all.

I can't WAIT to see what Pokemon games are like when they have actual storylines.

Gamestop is so dumb when they do things like that
They announced one MMO at their con (won't mention it will get flamed lol) and a week later gamestop was taking pre-orders for the game and they gave a fake date to when it was going to be released
 
How do people manage to put images in the middle of words? It can't possibly be that hard to make sure you don't do that. This isn't the first time I've seen this happen either. Also, that Dora age-up was a TERRIBLE idea.

Sorry for off-topicness. On topic, those are some snazzy covers.
 
actually i put it in the middle of a word on purpose
Code: 
wo[img]imageurl[/img]rd
if you wanted to know how

on topic, those covers are probably fake despite the fact they probably wont differ much from the real one

I figured that's how it was done, but why?

As for the covers, they ARE different to the ones that we've seen already, so I don't know which ones are real. I'm leaning towards these new ones being real and the older ones being a "work in progress" cover.

Something that's been bugging me: You know the thing about the gen 1 "pink with floral pattern" Pokemon finally existing? Did that trainer say that in the original Japanese games? Because I really doubt inspiration would be taken from a line in a foreign version of a game.

Also, that's a nice looking Surf.

@Herocross: I'm willing to bet money that that's fake. For one, surely they'd use the girl from the games in the anime, just like they've done since gen 3, instead of creating a new one. Second, why are her and Ash all dark while everyone else isn't?

Someone found this on Bulbapedia. There are some new Pkmn (Grass+Water Starter-Evos!)!

Tsutarja's Evo reminds me a bit of Sceptile (mostly because of its back) and Wotter's Evo... idk xD

What do you guys think?

Sized-up for your viewing pleasure.

Wait a sec they all have Japanese under them.

Translation is needed.

IIRC they've already revealed and confirmed the girl will not be the same as the games, and a new male character will take Brock's place. This art is so far, perfectly consistent with confirmed information already made. It's also probably because the work is still unfinished and everyone else has yet to be shaded.

Well if this is legit, then... I'm incredibly disappointed about what the Grass starter's 2nd form looks like, it's like Grovyle, only... worse. The sad otter improved quite a bit (granted, that's not saying much), but it looks a lot like Marshtomp (perhaps crossed with Floatzel).

Also, I see Ash to the far left, so this must be how the Anime appearance of these Pokemon will lookturn out like. I'm really curious about the little flying demon-looking fuzzball and the Larvitar-looking guy.

Cool new pictures, can't wait for more info!
 
Yeah what's Team Rocket doing in that picture? The lines look like they might be used to get the heights of things correct so I could only think it was fanmade or for the anime. The guy on the right also looks really generic.
 
Exactly my thoughts. I remember someone telling me that the evolutions usually aren't revealed until the games are out. I HIGHLY doubt GF would leave something like that lying around
 
Yeah, the guy who found it, said it was a "sektch-artwork" for the new series, which will contain the 5th-gen Pkmn, but he doesn't have further information ...
