Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

Details about early game

Areas in south west: Sangi Ranch, Route 20, Tachiwaki City, Pokewood, Sangi Town, Route 19, Aspertia City, Tachiwaki Complex
Route 19 has Patrat and Purrloin within it
Route 20 has Sewaddle, Pidove, Dunsparce, Audino, Purrloin, Patrat, Venipede & Sunkern
Sangi Ranch features Lillipup, Riolu, Pidove, Azurill, Dunsparce, Audino, Mareep, Patrat & Psyduck
Tachiwaki Complex features Pidove, Magby/Elekid, Growlithe, Audino, Magnemite & Koffing. Pidove is only found outside in it, while Growlithe and Koffing are inside
The Unova Pokédex page has been updated with various new Pokémon
The map is shown for the first time and shows that you can search for Pokémon with the Pokédex
It confirms Cheren's team as being Patrat (Lv. 11) & Lillipup (Lv. 13), giving you Work Up and Homika's team as being Koffing (Lv. 16) and Whirlipede (Lv. 18) and gives Venoshock.
The area you change form with Keldeo in is called "Oath Woods"
Your mother & your Rival's younger sister will give you the Running Shoes and Town Map. You meet Alder in Route 19
Rival battle in Sangi Ranch. You need to work with your rival to find a Herdier. If you succeed, you will receive TM21. You get the medal box in Sangi Town and six hints for medals. You also have two battles in Alder's house
Bianca gives you the C-Gear after you beat Cheren. This unlocks the ability to trade. You will also receive a Pokédex upgrade within Route 20
You get to view Homika's father's movies when you reach Pokéwood.
In the Tachiwaki Complex, if you beat all three trainers within it, you will receive TM94, Rock Smash
Team Plasma are first fought in Tachiwaki and then Route 20. Access to Castelia City is via boat

Badge order has been confirmed thanks to an image on the Global Link. The order goes; Basic Badge (Cheren), Toxic Badge (Homika), Insect Badge (Burgh), Bolt Badge (Elesa), Quake Badge (Clay), Jet Badge(Skyla), Legend Badge (Drayden), Unknown Badge (Shizui). It also confirms medals will appear on the Global Link

I'm surprised that Shizui is the 8th gym leader.
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

What are Team Plasma's goals this time?
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

Team Plasma is split into two separate factions now.

The original Team Plasma is loyal to N, while the new Team Plasma have the typical goal of world domination. New Team Plasma is likely loyal to Ghetsis.
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

So they're giving Riolu pretty early in the game, as well as Magnemite?

That's cool, because Lucario and Magnezone are both pretty great Pokemon.
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

Yes, wild riolu and eevee. So, which faction have the black grunts?
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

The new faction.

The old Team Plasma still have the same uniforms.

Yes, Riolu's available before the first gym, and Magnemite is available before the second.
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

There's a move tutor in Drifveil City. He teaches a variety of moves; Gunk Shot, Ice Punch, Fire Punch, Thunderpunch, Low Kick, Dual Chop, Seed Bomb, Uproar, Super Fang, Iron Head, Signal Beam, Bounce, Drill Run, Bug Bite & Covet. These cost Shards to teach
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

Massive spoilers

The HP/EXP meters have black backgrounds in Black 2 and white backgrounds in White 2.
You can drag and select multiple Pokemon at a time in the PC box and move them.
As we already knew, and as you can see below, you can trade Pokemon immediately after you get your C-Gear. Even a Level 100 Mewtwo.
Player #2 is battling Cheren, who is holding books. His Gym is a Trainer school.
After you beat Homika you have to participate in Pokewood.
The rival's default name is Hugh/Hue/Hyuu (ヒュウ).
Burgh's team is Level 22 Swadloon, Level 22 Dwebble, and Level 22 Leavanny, all male.
Both games are region locked for the DSi and 3DS. The cartridge codes start with "TWL," which is what that stands for.
Elesa's team is Level 28 Emolga, Level 28 Flaffy, and Level 30 Zebstrika, all female.
To get into the Battle Subway, you have to battle the Subway Bosses first. You meet them and the opposite-gendered character outside of it.
You will have Cut, Strength, and Fly by the time you leave Nimbasa City. The player notes that there isn't much to use Cut and Strength on, though.
The female player is named Mei (メイ) by default.
You can borrow a Riolu from Pokewood.
This early in the game, there's not much in Anville Town.
You're forced to have a rotation battle to proceed in Driftveil City. The character blocking you is Biker Charles.
The World Tournament is based in Driftveil City where the Cold Storage used to be.
The move tutor is in Driftveil City like in B/W, as pictured below (picture #10). He can teach Covet and Bug Bite, which cost 2 Red Shards; Drill Run, Bounce, Signal Beam, and Iron Head for 4; Super Fang and Uproar for 6; and Seed Bomb, Dual Chop, Low Kick, Thunderpunch, Fire Punch, Ice Punch, and Gunk Shot for an unknown amount.
Iris is not a Gym Leader in Black 2 or White 2. :(
You get a Zorua as a gift when you're in Driftveil. Its OT is N and it's a Level 25 male.
The Seven Plasma Sages have escaped from jail.
Here's a video of Bianca giving you your Starter Pokemon. Cool CG!
Clay's team is Level 31 Krokorok, Level 31 Sandslash, and Level 33 Excadrill, all male.
Using a new feature called "Unova Link," you can connect to the opposite version of your game and get Black City or White Forest depending on which one you don't have by default. UPDATE: This Unova Link feature happens when you have the Key post-game, mentioned below.
Repel can now be used again without going into the menu. After one runs out, it asks you "Repel's effect ran out. Use another one? Y/N?"
The Move Deleter and Move Relearner are now located inside the World Tournament building. The guy who tells you your Pokemon's Hidden Power is also there.
You have to play in the World Tournament as part of the story.
You meet Achroma in the World Tournament finals. He's got a Magneton, as seen in the promotional anime commercial.
The World Tournament has different battle theme music for the finals.
Through an in-game event at the Weather Facility on Route 6, the player got a Deerling with its Hidden Ability, Serene Grace. It's female and at Level 30. Picture below.
Some old Pokemon that can be found include Budew, Roselia, Baltoy, Nosepass, Cleffa, Combee, and Castform.
The male character's default name is Kyouhei.
More Pokemon found in the game: Ratatta, Grimer, and Zubat. Yes, that's right. Zubats are back.
Evolutionary Stones, Macho Brace and some Lenses (Scope and Wide) can be purchased with BP.
Skyla's team: Level 37 Swoobat, Level 37 Skarmory, Level 39 Swanna. All are female.
Some shots of the game's manual, detailing the new Unova Link feature.
After clearing the game, you will be given a Key. This key allows for changing the game's mode between Normal Mode (standard levels), Assist Mode (Trainers' level will go down), and Challenge Mode (levels will go up). The Key also allows for the changing of Black City to White Forest and vice versa.
Apparently, if you turn off your DS/disconnect during a Wi-Fi match, the game will not let you Wi-Fi battle for a while. Your public rating will also go down.
Hoenn battle music found in the game, most likely for the World Tournament if it's real.
Another Move Tutor. Teaches the moves Last Resort and Iron Defense for 2 Blue Shards, Magnet Rise and Magic Coat for 4, Block, Hyper Voice, Electroweb, and Icy Wind for 6. Other moves he teaches include Iron Tail, Aqua Tail, Earth Power, Zen Headbutt, Foul Play, Superpower, Gravity, Dragon Pulse, and Dark Pulse, but we don't know for how much.
Bel's talking about Heatran and how it has magma-like blood.
Cobalion is found out in the open close to Undella Town and Lacunosa Town.
2ch Player says that he's on his way to Opelucid City. However, given his statement that he was near Undella/Lacunosa Town, this potentially means that you will be going to Eastern Unova. Interesting, because Skyla and Clay are on the Western side.
Earlier in the game (around when you are level 20-25), you get (have the opportunity to catch) a Level 20 Minccino at the "Hidden Burrow," with its hidden ability, Skill Link.
The 2nd gym's music features what appears to be Homika singing "D-O-G-A-R-S," which is the Japanese name for Koffing, her featured Pokemon. We're not sure if it's actually real though. Wonder how they'll localize it for other languages if it is.
Just like Cobalion, Virizion is also found standing in the open.
Terrakion, too.
More pictures: an Emboar fighting a Level 35 Volcarona (unknown if it's a Trainer's or a wild Pokemon), and a screen of TM95, Snarl, meaning it's obtainable in-game. Also, have a high-res Xtransceiver Mom picture.
Drayden's team: Level 46 Druddigon, Level 46 Flygon, Level 48 Haxorus, all male.
Soon after you beat the 7th gym leader, the world freezes. Unknown if it's just parts of Unova, or the entire map: by the way the poster phrases it, it could very well be a world-wide freeze.
Here's a picture of Frozen Unova.
During Frozen Unova, you fight the Shadow Triad. First member is named "Dark.". Interestingly enough, his trainer class is "Team Plasma," not "Shadow Triad."
A picture of Virizion on the map, after the world freezes over. It seems that not all of Unova is frozen - at least, there are parts that remain intact.
Move Tutor goodness: Bind and Snore for 2 Yellow Shards, Heal Block and Knock Off for 4, Synthesis and Roost for 6, Sky Attack and Role Play for 8. Move Tutor also has Heat Wave, Giga Drain, Drain Punch, Pain Split, and Tailwind for an unknown amount of shards.
Shizui's team: Level 49 Carracosta, Level 49 Wailord, Level 51 Jellicent, all Male. He gives you TM55 Scald for beating him.
More Pokemon found in-game: Absol, Banette, Drapion, Seviper, Driftblim, Sneasel, Mantine, Altaria, and Starmie.
2ch Player is talking about a new Item Registration system. He says that the old way of registering items is gone, and is replaced with a new "Free Space," which you can store items of your choosing. No details on how exactly it works, though.
Update on the Wi-Fi disconnect thing. If you disconnect during a Wi-Fi/Random match, you will not be able to participate in a Tournament or a Random Match for 1 hour.
4th Move Tutor found: Worry Seed, Gastro Acid, Helping Hand, After You, Magic Room, Wonder Room, Spite, Recycle, Trick, Stealth Rock, Outrage, Endeavor, Sleep Talk, Skill Swap, and Snatch.
At some point in the game (presumably after the 8th gym), you get the Lunar Wing.
Iris is in the game. She appears while you're talking to a guide, seemingly in Castellia City.
Achroma confirmed to be a boss of Team Plasma, and fought again after 8th gym.
Achroma's team: Level 50 Magneton, Level 50 Magnezone, Level 50 Metang, Level 50 Beheeyem, Level 52 Klinklang. Also, he apparently has an impressive battle theme.
Latias is in the game. Presumably Latias for one, Latios for another. Hoenn...
You fight your version's Kyurem forme sometime after beating Achroma. It is at level 55. It also has a really cool battlefield.
Regigigas will also appear in the game.
Ghetsis' Team: Level 50 Cofagrigus, Level 50 Eelektross, Level 50 Drapion, Level 50 Toxicroak, Level 50 Seismitoad, Level 52 Hydreigon.
Also, you apparently CANNOT catch the Kyurem forme in your game (when you first encounter it).
2ch player feels that, unlike Black and White, the game's main storyline ends with you defeating the Champion, not someone else.
The Elite Four are divided into rooms like B/W and you can battle them in any order.
Ghost-type Elite Four Member: Level 56 Cofagrigus, Level 56 Drifblim, Level 56 Golurk, Level 58 Chandelure.
Dark-type Elite Four Member: Level 56 Liepard, Level 56 Scrafty, Level 56 Krookodile, Level 58 Bisharp.
Psychic-type Elite Four Member: Level 56 Musharna, Level 56 Sigilyph, Level 56 Reuniclus, Level 58 Gothitelle.
Fighting-type Elite Four Member: Level 56 Throh, Level 56 Sawk, Level 56 Mienshao, Level 58 Conkeldurr.
IRIS IS THE CHAMPION! Her team is Level 57 Hydreigon, Level 57 Druddigon, Level 57 Aggron, Level 57 Archeops, Level 57 Lapras, and Level 59 Haxorus.
The player on 2ch defeated the E4 with this team. We're betting his Level 100 Mewtwo was a big help.
You can also receive N's Sigilyph.
There's a "Strange House" in the game that's empty.
There's a new town called Yamaji Town (ヤマジタウン).
You can apparently encounter Uxie in a dwelling similar to the one in D/P/Pt.
Wild Eevee can be found at a small park in Castelia City.
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

So Iris as the champion, eh? Why does every champion have to have an insane number of dragon pokemon? I don't get it. Judging from her team, however, a Walrein seems like the best Pokemon to go with or another Ice/Water combo.
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

Archeops and Aggron don't fit her at all. Nor does Walrien. She should have an Altaria or something.
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

Archeops and Aggron fit perfectly because of the Dragon-type moves they learn, and their reptilian appearance. And she doesn't have a Walrein, she has Lapras, which also fits her.
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

This kid is Alder's grandson. You fight him in Black Skyscraper. His team is Latios, Garchomp, and Volcarona, and you're given a Gible after you defeat him.
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

OK, that's it. No more looking at spoilers for now on. I'm really excited, actually. It seems like it'll be really good.

Please make the story good!
 
Re: Pokemon Black and White 2 Revealed!

BulbaNews NOW has tons of new shit.

It's right here.

EDIT: I am playing the game.

EDIT2: Alder appears literally ten seconds into the game on Route 19. His theme is unchanged, too. Wooh...?
alderroute19.png

Sangi Town is directly after his appearance.
