Pokemon Black and White 2 Updates (Apr 22/2012)

A new trailer was revealed through Serebii.net which depicts more of the same game footage, but also introduces Keldeo, a special event Pokemon available to Black and White originally.

An image of CoroCoro magazine, confirming Keldeo's appearence in the new Black and White 2 games.

What connection does Keldeo have to Black and White 2? Keldeo is seen during the trailer in combat with Emboar briefly, and is supposed to have a much larger appearence during next week’s new information reveal on Pokemon Smash in Japan.

The trailer also gives a better look at the new Water gym, which looks to be flooded, and allows your character travel across the water by lillypad. If history repeats itself, it shall be another gym shaped in the fashion of a puzzle, complete with trainers and all.

So as for next week, keep an eye open to Serebii.net for anything relating to the legendary Pokemon, Keldeo. Until then, here’s the second trailer for Black and White 2.

Pokemon Black and White 2 will be a direct sequel, not an expansion

New information was revealed through CoroCoro this week that detailed some very interesting developments in the upcoming Pokemon Black and White 2 games.

According to Serebii.net, Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 are set within the Unova region 2 years after the events of Pokémon Black and Pokémon White, and as such, a lot has changed in the region. Areas have been renovated such as Route 4 while others have undergone drastic changes. The game begins in a previously inaccessible part of Unova to the southwest as you take control of a character who lives in Hagoichi City, with their childhood rival. There are various other new areas in Unova, with their own new Gyms and Gym Leaders.

Black 2 & White 2 features a Pokédex that contains Pokémon from various other regions of the game, with the dex having 300 Pokémon within it before the National Pokédex is obtained, making it the biggest regional Pokédex.

New images also surfaced that featured new characters as well as examples of the new partially frozen Unova region.

The game is expected for release in Japan on June 2012, but a release date for North America and Europe has not been confirmed. The game will be playable on the Nintendo DS (not 3DS).
