New Info about Pokemon Black and White 2 (Spoilers, obviously)

No rainbow star

It takes place 2 years after Black and White, and Unova has partially frozen over. There are new locations, new leaders, and so on. It has a different dex, with a mix of Unova Pokemon and Pokemon from past regions


 


Well holy crap this is really turning out to be a true sequel

  • I'm a damn twisted person

    New protagonists too?


     


    And fuck yeah, glacial spread. I always liked the ice levels in videogames and the whole winter look is really appealing to me.

    Well, Gold and Silver were actually true sequels to Red and Blue. It just that they completely threw that out the window in Gen III and made the whole chronological order a clusterfuck.


    Unova has partially frozen over.



    Holy shit, what? It's obvious that Kyurem is involved in this somehow, but still, what?

  • No rainbow star

    I wonder if Plasma will be back saying, "See? SEE!?" or if it will be a new team?


     


    Hell, considering the glacial spread and how Kyurem is an ice type, maybe the 'team' is a bunch of wild Pokemon being lead by Kyurem (unlikely, but would be interesting)

  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    I wonder if the old protags and rivals will make a reappearance as bonus bosses...

  • ^^ Didn't Ghetsis get away at the end of Black and White? Maybe this is his Plan B?

    No rainbow star

    ^^^^ I never realized that before


    ...Holy shit what if Hilbert/Hilda are put in like Red was in GSC?


     


    EDIT: I just remembered, Cynthia was in Black and White. Could she feature in these ones?

  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    Holy crap the male protag's hat cannot contain that much hair!

  • "I will grant you two wishes; one for each testicle."

    Isn't this whole "frozen over" thing done in the transition from DP to Platinum? Platinum had the protags changes from spring to winter clothes, had snow in more places, etc. due to the fact that the Distortion World was making the world colder or something like that.

  • No rainbow star

    ^ That part didn't make sense to me, as the Distortion World didn't open up until late game


    Either way, Platinum took place at the same time as DP, and, from what I can tell, is the "true" story. In BW2's case, it isn't replacing the story at all, so it is a bit different (also, Platinum barely added any snow. This is full on glaciation :D)

  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    ^^Or Platinum could take place in Winter as opposed to Spring or something in D/P.

  • No rainbow star
    ^ Is that the professor researching Pokemon Strength?



    ...WMG: He's the bad guy and infects Kyurem and Zekrom/Reshiram with a mutant form of the T-Virus
  • But you never had any to begin with.

    Yes, that is the professor.

  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    Is...is his hair looping around to the other side of his face?


    Okaaaaaaay...

  • Likes cheesecake unironically.

    My first thought: That must be the youngest professor in a Pokémon game so far.


    My second thought: No wait, he's the youngest male professor in a Pokémon game so far.


    My third thought: THEFUCKISWRONGWITHHISHAIR! Seriously, that's one of the worst cases of anime hair I ever saw. I hope that it's not really part of his hair, but... something entirely different.


    The male PC also has pretty bad hair. Will every (male) character get an awful hairstyle in this game?

    Definitely not gay.

    I like the PCs of B/W better.
