*GUSH*

EDIT: Things I noticed:
Is it Reshi/Zek? NO! It's Kyurem!
OK... Pokemon don't follow you around. Oh well.

Do you remember how the clouds were "hiding something" in the original BW? It may be the same thing here, or a post-E4 unlock, (Kyurem unfreezes the world?) because they won't shut us out of 60% of the region.

Who is the rival talking to? They don't look like Plasma, that's for sure.

The new researcher looks like a ... Frontier Brain? That was so Battle Arcade/Dome like.

Making movies? With... Looker?
What is that lone Ciniccio?
Wild Eevee and Riolu!!
Pelipper and Absol in the same grass? Hoenn much?
Kyurem forme sprites!

JUNE 23!

This page shows unnarrated "fights" between the kyurems & serperior. Shows off their animation, the two moves, and the remix of the battle theme

Overdrive will not be a separate form like you are implying. Overdrive is most likely referring to the current Black and White Kyurem's. If overdrive is introduced in someway it will most likely be some sort of Kyurem ability to help it transform or maintain those forms if some sort of really simple condition is met.

I didn't say Overdrive was a separate forme. I was calling Burning Red White Kyurem and Sparkling Blue Black Kyurem the "Overdrive formes" because it seems reasonable that they're the result of Overdrive status (however that is brought about). Whether they come about due to some battle condition is irrelevant, they are still different formes. Step Meloetta, Zen Mode Darmanitan, and Castform are exactly like that.
 
Surprised that they don't have pokemon follow you around, I'm wondering how their going to do 5th gen dreamworld abilities if there are no overworld sprites but wouldn't be surprised if there's a new method since the entre forest moat is dried up and looks different.
 
I SWEAR i saw a robot tyranitar in a battle scene. (like the small pictures when a battle begins... AT 0:54)

and.. the cincinno.... has a DW ability. i can tell,

and that wasnt the looker.

They can just, like, make overworld sprites for them

They don't need an useless gimmick that does nothing but adding like 3 seconds in the overworld for that, they could have made the Unova pokemon overworld sprites during the development of the new games as seen in this pic:

This looks like Crustle overworld sprite.
 
Just putting this out there but the no Pokemon following in the trailer could just mean there's an option to turn it off and they didn't want to reveal it yet.

Also, Pikachu will be in the new Unova dex, calling it now.
 
OMG IT'S TEAM GINGER!

Steampunk Tyranitar @00:53?

What the heck is happening in half that trailer? Some of it was gym puzzles, but what's all the rest, Frontier stuff?

The rest is basically just showing off the new timewaster, I suppose. The theater...thing.
 
What was the location when they showed Black/White Kyurem? It kind of looked like the Giant Chasm to me, possibly hinting that we can go there in the main story.
 
Wild Eevees! Hells yeah.

Seriously though, this is looking like one hell of a set of sequels. Can we call BW2 gen 5.5 at this point?
 
I remember I tried to estimate Gothitelle's and Reuniclus' stats.



Reuniclus' kind of sucked (I had the wrong level, though), and Gothitelle would be kind of awesome if she had max estimated stats on everything.



Now guess who's below NU and who's OU.

I'm not saying you should cast aside your hopes of Snow Warning but
 
is it bad that I think both Kyurems are both... incredibly ugly? neither is really aesthetically pleasing at all; each reminds me of mismatched socks.

Also, I have doubts you'll be able to properly calc kyurem's new stats. Ice Burn / Freeze Shock are 140 BP moves with STAB and each is used on a mon weak to them. The chance that they wouldn't KO are probably pretty low.

In any case, I like the neat new HP bar.
 
Ooh, base damages!

Freeze Shock/Ice Burn:
140x1(Power Herb, because why run these moves without it?)=140

Ice Beam(BP 95):
LO: 123.5
Specs: 142.5

Blizzard(BP 120):
LO: 156
Specs: 180

Not even near being worth it for a one time STAB.

Ok guys, so that thing CLEARLY isn't real ice.


...Dude, is that a cyborg Tyranitar at 0:54?
Click to expand...
Yes, but that Tyranitar is for that new movie / play thing your character is in.

But I got to say, all these old Pokémon in the Unova Pokédex makes me wanna have this game so badly when looking at the website. That's why B/W wasn't like DPPt: there were no old Pokémon to mix things up a bit.

Then the new areas, trainer animations, the new gyms look awesome.

The only thing that would made this even better were new sprites for the Pokémon, or at least the old Pokémon added to the Unova Pokédex.

And by looking at that map on the website, you can clearly see the ice is just for covering up the old parts basically. To really show off where the parts are and what they are etc.

Oh, and seriously hope they add Gym Leader rematches in these ones. That's a huge plus in any Pokémon game. Especially since the new Gym Leaders look so cool.
And I also had trouble choosing what charactr I'm going to be, since the girl looks great while the stupid looks rather dumb. Now, I think the boy looks great in-game. So, now I need to choose which one I'll be in which language of the games (Jap. White 2, Eng. Black 2). Tough decisions.
