    Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 Announced!

    Just saw this on gbatemp.net:


    ORIGINAL STORY: The third entry in the Black and White set of Pokemon games has finally been confirmed. The game, which at least for now is called Pokemon Black 2 and White 2, will be released for Nintendo DS in Japan this June, no word yet on a global release date.

    News of this new Pokemon game has arrived care of series producer Junichi Masuda. Following yesterday's tease that big news was on the way, Masuda revealed the new game today during the Japanese show Pokemon Smash.

    No further details have been revealed at this time. Stay tuned to IGN for more updates as they come in.

    UPDATE: The official Pokemon japanese website has been updated to include news of this new game. It mentions that "mysterious legendary Pokemon" will make an appearance. The images of these Pokemon (below) look like new forms of Black and White's legendaries Reshiram and Zekrom, perhaps somehow fused with Kyurem. Of course, only time will tell who they are for sure.

    UPDATE: In a surprising development, it seems that the "third" entry in the fifth generation of Pokemon games will actually be two separate titles, releasing simultaneously. As mentioned below, they will be called Pokemon Black 2 and Pokemon White 2 and they will release in Japan this June. No news on a North American release, but the U.S. site says they will be "coming soon."

    The U.S. site also calls the games "two incredible new adventures" - which, paired with the Black 2 and White 2 branding, may suggest they are actually direct sequels of sorts to Black and White. To be clear, this has not been confirmed and is merely speculation. No official word has been given on whether it will feature the same story and areas as Black and White (as is traditional for these third entries) or whether it will somehow continue the adventure. Keep it here on IGN for all the latest.

    Well, the fact that a main series Pokemon game has a sequel for the first time is exciting. And I am glad it will still be released on the regular DS system. Maybe it is just me, but does it look like Black Kyurem just looks bad? To me, the blue and black and gray don't mesh well together. White Kyurem looks better to me because the colors are all closer to each other. They mesh well, whereas the Black Kyurem colors don't.

    GBATemp is always ontop of translation patches for the Japanese ROMs if the global release date is like a year away, so to hear it coming out in June is nice. Personally I haven't played a pokemon since Heart Gold, but I might have to play black 1&2

    That's interesting, as I heard they also confirmed the release of Pokemon Grey in Japan this year and in the US next spring.
    It's like Platinum is to D/P...same story, more stuff.

    There isn't a Pokemon Grey....

    The stuff that was rumored to be that game turned into Black 2 & White 2

    I'm looking forward to the new games! I don't know which version I'll end up getting, though. I'm gonna have to wait until they're released in Japan, and go from there :3

    They need to remake the first gen games before they start making sequels to this...

    They already did. But I guess making them again would be nice.
