Okay so there's been a bit of a mishap with the trailer as it got put up twice without being private so I suspect whoever leaked it accidentally has got their neck on the chopping block. Real shame too, their blunder (If it was, this might all be premeditated) has really stirred up anticipation. A link to view the trailer can be seen here. It shows so much. The rival might actually be likeable!! (Certainly wanting to play as him more than the palm tree protag there) and that those supposed "black uniformed Rockets" people wrongly dubbed were in reality a new sect of Team Plasma. Seems to be a fan thing but everyone's referring to them as Neo Plasma. They look seriously BAMF. Elesa's new look is also pretty SHOCKING. Hahah. ;D The Shadow Triad at the end... I really don't like the whole Striaton Leader theory with those triplets being the trio but... Daaamn. Its looking more and more likely. Once i've got Photoshop up i'll convey what I mean. I have a little inkling about something that I need a colour checker to back up. Kind of a shame they don't hire these animators to do the main series anime, it really showed it all up. DAMN, those 3-D stairs. and yes, Elesa looks like a super model lol. and then the serviper getting iced meh. side note: i hope team rockets and team plasma clash in the pokemon adventures or something. those two have a lot of in common...

Holy moley, that latest trailer... Such gorgeous animation! This makes me want the game even more! It all looks so good. And I love how they've had so many leaks, but they haven't given the whole game away. THAT is good marketing. This is seriously what Nintendo needs. I know people complain about the repetitiveness of the Pokemon series, but this generation shook things up. And I'm liking it. On a side note, I am SO buying both games when they come out. ;D

WOW!!! REplay value does have its benefits. OK So I looked at the New Plasma uniforms..they are a lot like Team Rocket but I distrinctly see the Team Plasma Logo. Team Rocket is probably not going to be in the new game. To be honest I never really liked the team plasma ideology. At least Team Rocket you knew they were just simply bad and ruthless. These guys want to stop People from using Pokemon by using Pokemon to do it. It is just stupid.

A good part of me can't help but think the Neo Plasma grunts are follower's of Ghetsis' ideals. Think about it, all through Black & White, he was merely putting on a façade to fool people into releasing their Pokemon so that he would ultimately be the only one with control over his and leaving people utterly defenceless. That's a pretty warped and selfish reason and it just feels these specialist commando looking grunts would be serving him. Especially judging from the brutal, vicious behaviour exhibited in the anime trailer. Just seems Ghetsis style. Then there's also the fact that there's screenshots of BW2 showing the Sages while hanging around with the Olde Plasma Grunt uniforms. Throw that in with the fact Akuroma (The dodgy scientist looking fella) mentions he "doesn't follow the ideals of Plasma's ideology" makes it seem even more likely he's paired with Ghetsis' Plasma branch in forcing Pokemon to be nothing more than tools/slaves. I can't also help but think that when Plasma was a homogeneous group, there were still differing factions. Some probably honestly believed in all the false ideology that was being spouted, others probably had a better inkling and were merely tagging along for the ride so they could be one of the chosen few to still hold onto Pokemon. Hooray speculation!

Those are some pretty rad pictures. The movie sounds cool as well. Can't wait to see it.

Just a small correction. It is NOT a movie, it's an animated promotional video dramatising in game events. Which is a really big shame as a series or short OVA from the same people who designed the promotion would likely rake in big bucks. I haven't heard any negative comments from anyone who's watched it which goes to show how well done it is. Hell, i've even heard people saying they're more fond of palm tree hero. D:

Not long now before this is released. Another 2 or 3 days and all the more information is spilling out. Looks like Koffing is available early on too.
Maybe i'll be using Scraggy/Elekid/Koffing pretty early. ;D I'LL DO A JOE RUN!

I am very disappointed with this. I will not be buying Black 2 or White 2. What's the point when I can just play Black and White. If they had made 1 version and just released Pokemon Gray, then that would of been better. This is a huge mistake on Nintendo's part. There going to lose out on money big time.

I dunno, on the contrary. A lot of people seem to like the idea of playing in the region a year or two on, Black and White had a lot of unfinished business. I think i'll be preordering this simply because a lot of what i've seen from the leak has pleased me nicely.

I am very disappointed with this. I will not be buying Black 2 or White 2. What's the point when I can just play Black and White. Well, these games aren't going to be exactly like Black and White. The entire region and plot has changed, and there's going to be different Pokemon that appear from the originals. If they had made 1 version and just released Pokemon Gray, then that would of been better. This is a huge mistake on Nintendo's part. There going to lose out on money big time. Actually, no they won't. With two games being released, they'll be able to make twice as much money. It's a good strategy on their part, and if the "only-certain-Pokemon-appear-in-certain-games" holds up, it will motivate people to buy both. Personally, I plan on throwing my money at Nintendo and buying both when they come out. I was really impressed with Black and White when they were released, and I'm already liking the looks of these two. It's about damn time that Nintendo broke the pattern and made a true sequel. Maybe i'll be using Scraggy/Elekid/Koffing pretty early. ;D I'LL DO A JOE RUN! DO IT. XD That would be super amusing. Personally, I'm planning on catching a Riolu and a Lapras for my runs, once this is released in the States. I lurve those two. ;D

I agree, adding the new aspects has probably made the game even better. I pre-ordered for all the good stuff Gamestop is giving out~ And Sky, Lapras is a definite yes during my run. But I really want Growlithe too.

Cool! Lapras and Growlithe would be cool.
Also I think you can actually find an Let's Play on these games on Youtube, since the japanese versions are out now, if any of you want to see the games early on.
