Gen V Pokémon game names revealed - Pokémon Black and White Versions

Yeah. Judging by their design, they probably work in a restaurant or something.
 
Oh wow, an African-American character. Game Freak IS breaking boundaries.

Also, American football player a Trainer class. Just, lol.

You can't catch any old Pokemon before the National Pokedex.

Personally, I'm glad. As the article says, both new and old players will have a completely new experience.
 
Yes! So that means I will not encounter any Tentacools, Magikarps, Geodudes, Zubats, and Machops till after the Nat Dex.
 
THANK. YOU. GOD.

I love how they're making Black/White as new games rather than just sequels by doing things like resetting the route numbers and isolating the region.
 
I might just be blind, but I fail to see how not seeing the old "Use Repels" Pokémon of the Pokémon world means that things are going to be totally different. Nintendo/Game Freak has stated that the game will be vastly different, sure, but I can't be the only one who thinks it doesn't look any different from other Pokémon games, am I? I don't think that's a bad thing; I probably wouldn't like it if the main series took a radically different approach to how the games are played, etc.
 
Obviously it's not going to be a complete overhaul - which is a good thing, since as Ninji said, I wouldn't like the series as much if they made such a radical change - but the little alterations make this generation seem a bit more fresh and unique than, say, Gen IV.
 
Little altercations such as? The only real differences I've noticed would be the graphics (hey, like Generation IV!) and triple battles (which people thought were extremely gimmicky and did nothing to help Generation III).

Well, there's a lot more than just that. Go look at Serebii.net and see.
