Swampfly's Role Plays

It's coming out in about a year.  If you have any pictures or things you'd like to add about this exciting game, please spill!

This July, a movie is coming out with Pokemon from the new games.  It's called "The Legend of Zoroark", or something with Zoroark in the name.

It's called the Isshu region.

Yeah!  I heard about that.  Also, if you go, don't you get a Zoroark or something?

Possible.  My brother and I went to see Yu-Gi-oh the Movie, and they handed out the main monster cards of the movie.

And what do you mean it comes out in about a year?  It's coming this August!

Are you serious??????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   This website said that it was coming out next summer...................

Oh, sorry.  It comes out this year in Japan.  Next spring is the USA and European release.

I wish I were Japanese...

Stupid home team advantage...

Yup...*sigh*

By the way, here's the Japanese trailer for the game.  Just found it on YouTube.

It appears that, like in D/P when Pokemon would move around when they were sent out, B/W Pokemon will continue moving throughout the battle, and their motions will change according to stimulus, such as being hit by an opponent's attack.

Wooguru, roughly translating to "War Eagle" is a Normal/Flying type Pokemon that can learn Free Fall, an attack that involves lifting the opponent into the air, and then on the next turn dropping it to the ground.

It resembles a blue bald eagles with red wings.

Musharna is the evolved form of Munna, which was shown in the previous link I provided. From what I can tell, it appears to be a fatter version of Munna sleeping, possibly with some kind of cord attatched to its head, or pink smoke coming from it. Musharna is related to "Dream Smoke". It appears that this has something to do with uploading your Pokemon Black and White save file to the Internet. (Pokemon Global Link)

It appears the Pokemon professors have moved out of trees. The new Professor is named Araragi, which according to Wikipedia is a genus of butterfly.

Other than having a few different Pokemon and Reshiram/Zekrom, Pokemon Black and White will also have a different version exclusive. Depending on the version you choose, you will be able to access either Black City or White Forest. (names are literal)

There are 2 new characters that are childhood friends of the main character, Cheren and Beru. Cheren you will have to battle at some point, and it is assumed that Beru is Araragi's assistant.

Kibago appears to be a small, tusked, two-legged (since swampfly doesn't like the word bipedal) dinosaur Pokemon. However, it is also being called Namakusu, so I don't know what to call it.

Koromori looks like a blue sheepdog with one fang, no eyes, no legs, no nothing... except, of course, the two bat wings. It appears small in size.

Minezumi looks like a chipmunk with a hangover. No joke, his eyes are bloodshot.

There is also a mysterious man named "N". You will have to battle him at some point.

When characters talk to you, from what I've seen, their faces will actually appear on screen, and their lips will move.

Rankurusu appears to be a woman crossed with a chocolate bar.

Gochiruzeru (from what I can tell with only a picture of its back) appears to be transparent. It is green and shapped like a bunny/tornado, and looks like it has another paler Pokemon controlling it from the inside. Or being digested.

Hatoopoo has the possibility of being Mamepato's evolution. It appears to be a pale blue version of Staravia.

Mamepato appears to be a grey pidgeon.

Also, new Pokedex entries for Reshiram and Zekrom!

Reshiram: It blows flames that completely burn its surroundings. It is said that its heat moves Earth's atmosphere.

Zekrom: It has been passed down that it creates electricity using the generator in its body, flying around the skies of the Isshu region and hiding itself in thunderclouds.

Tsutaaja's (grass starter) evolution grows taller, and leaves grow on it's spine.

Mijumaru's (water starter) evolution's picture was blurred, but it appeared to be taller. Definitely two-legged.

Another unnamed Pokemon appears to be a broccoli monkey.

More updates coming soon.

Update on Araragi:  For the first time ever, the professor is female!

The new Pokedex looks like an MP3 Player.

The touch screen during a battle appears as an oval center of a Pokeball.  The Attack option is in the center.  Bag is bottom left.  Run is bottom center.  Pokemon is bottom right.  Between Attack and Run is the Pokemon in your party.  In the upper right hand corner is the weather.

The Pokemon Center GTS center instead of doors appears to have teleportation machines or elevator made of cylindrical glass.

The C-Gear appears to be used by dragging items.

On some occasions, you will be able to walk with your Pokemon.

Apparently, thre will be vending machines spread across the Pokemon world.

Instead the the usual aerial view, the viewpoint appears to be a little closer to Earth.

It appears that somewhere, possibly a Pokemon Gym, you will be walking through what appears to be huge honey cells, or hive, or nest, or whatever you want to call it.

From recent studies, Isshu seems to be the first region not based in Japan.  Corocoro magazine says it is located "far away".  Due to a certain suspension bridge in the game, some believe it could be based on San Francisco.  Others believe it may be found in Shanghai.

In the south is Hiun city.  It is the central city for Isshu.  "Hiun" means bad luck or misfortune.  As you walk around it, the screen keeps pointing towards the center.  To the south are the docks, and to the east is the bridge, known as Sky Arrow Bridge.

It is safe to say that you cannot go east or west without crossing some body of water, for rivers run down to the ocean on either side.  It is therefore split into three parts, and on either side are huge glaciers.

To the North of Hiun is some sort of desert with a sandstorm continually blowing.  This desert is about twice or three times the size of Hiun. 

Also, that's Huin not Hiun.  Gijinka?

Yeah.  Gijinka is a human form of a Pokemon.    What's your favorite Pokemon?  I can get you a human form of it.

Giritina.

  It's spelled Giratina...and I hope these show up.  If my dad gets the scanner hooked up, I could draw one, but until then, these are from Deviantart.  If they don't show up, here are the urls.

Wow, though the word Gijinka can't possibly be taken seriously.

How so?  (Drew a Gijinka Flaffy yesterday.  I never knew how much of a hippie Flaafy could be.)

What do you mean how so?  Pronounce Gijinka to yourself.
