I'm pretty sure the player characters are not exactly the protagonists from the last game. Why would they go through an adventure twice? The scientist (he's not the professor) is a mysterious man named Akuroma. Supposedly, he is researching the power of Pokemon, and is creating a device that allows people to access the latent abilities of Pokemon. I, along with many other people, think that Akuroma may be a new antagonist. First, 'cause his clothing colors mimics that of Team Plasma. Second, apparently his name has relations to "achromatic" and the japanese words for "evil" and "black demon." As for his role, I feel like he may have something to do with Kyurem. Look at his tuft of blue hair that comes out of his head to circle around him like a gas giant's rings, then look at the strands of energy that go into Kyurem's tail when in Black or White form. Pretty sure Akuroma's hair is more than a strange hairdo. Yes, the punk girl (Homika) is a Poison-type Gym Leader, while the tan guy (Shizui) is a Water-type Gym Leader. We don't know where they will appear exactly, although we do know that Homika has two Pokemon on her team the first time. The expanded Pokedex was very surprising. Sure, Platinum did this to the Sinnoh Dex, and Unova is in need of a bit more variation (I don't think I was the only one angry with the elemental monkeys appearing hundreds of times). However, the new Dex will have THREE HUNDRED Pokemon in it, double the amount of the old Dex. Secondly, there is a surprising amount of rare Pokemon that are now in the wild. DG mentioned the confirmed ones so far. What's especially surprising is how early you can get these Pokemon. Eevee can be found in the wild at Lv. 14. Riolu is #33 in the new Dex. If B2W2 are still keeping the same formula of placing the location of Pokemon in the Dex in accordance to when you meet them, then Riolu seems to be encountered surprisingly early. Don't worry, robot Pokemon do not seem to be part of a plot point. Apparently, acting in movies will be in the game, and the robot Tyranitar is part of a scene. I am very excited to hear more info. I already definitely know one half of my team (Samurott, Leavanny, and Victini [brought over from White]), but I'll wait for when the games come out in Japan so I can decide the other half. |

None of this is very 'new'. It's all pretty much been done before. |

True, but the magnitude of the changes is surprising. |

Hmm... -True, but you have to admit that the girl, at least, looks a lot like White/'Hilda' (still can't believe they named them Hilda & Hilbert I mean Jesus that sounds doofy) -Kuro, I believe, means black. I think 'aku' means evil, but that may be Samurai Jack talking & not my knowledge of Japanese. The similarity to 'akuma', which translates to 'devil', is also worth pointing out. -'Akuroma' also has similarities with the name 'Kyurem', especially if you take Japanese pronunciation into account. -I can't wait to see the other (likely 6) leaders, & hopefully have rematch teams from the old ones. -Hmm. I may have to finally use Flareon &/or Lucario... -I'm actually kinda disappointed at that. A fight against a robot 'mon in the games, rather than in the cheesy anime, would be pretty sweet, I think. @KP: It's not what they've done so much as how much they did & how they did it, really. |

All they've done is add gym leaders, pokemon, player characters, professor, and a rival. In case you haven't noticed, they do that for every game. |

No, really? Sure, they've added the same stuff as they always do. But think about it. Never before have they made new stuff for the same gen to this extent. |

Well it's not really THAT impressive. All the changed for these games is that they didn't bother to change the region. |

Well, we've never had any problem getting this excited over new gens. If they haven't done anything but what they always do, then why bother mention us having the same reaction? |

Well I just thought that this new game was a bit lazy, considering. |

How is it lazy, exactly, to make a new game with the same pokedex when the alternative is to remake the same game you've already made, with some new additions? |

But that's exactly what they've done, just slapped some 'different' paint on the Black and White. To be completely honest, I would've preferred a R/S/E remake. |

(I felt like I had to jump in) I have to agree with KP on ths one. An R/S/E remake would've been AMAZING!!!! Hoenn was my favorite region. |

I'd prefer a Hoenn remake too. But that's because I loved Hoenn, not because I dislike how they've done this one. Conversely, the fact that it is not a Hoenn remake (which, mind you, could still happen) does not make me any less excited for BW2. |

It appears that KP's main concern is that Unova is not exactly a place to go through again. Admittedly, Unova is indeed lackluster. But so was Hoenn in Ruby & Sapphire and Sinnoh in Diamond & Pearl. However, I'm sure that Unova will be improved a heck ton to make it enjoyable. In fact, we start in a CITY in B2W2! New towns and cities will be available for us to go through. KP, if this is not what you meant, I apologize for jumping to conclusions. |
