Pokémon Black/White Landing Stateside Spring 2011

oh shit, mutated palkias!

" @TurboMan: Really wonder about the people older than teenager who knows enough about pokemans"

I'll be getting it day one.  I think I'll roll with Black version.

Jesus they look like every other pokemon. Can the pokemon artist not draw real hands?

Gotta love those adorable little JRPG monsters.

Ah, glad to see Pokemon still continuing to look like Digimon. Them some ultimate level digimon right there.

reshiram...

*in poorly emulated solid snake voice*

...metal gear?

god those pokemon look gay as shit. what happened to squirtle?! fuck.

Sorry for being juvenile, but man, that white pokemon sure has a pointy, feathery cock.

Tough choice, but I'm kinda leaning towards Black.

I'm not sure now... I typically just pick my preferred color and this time it is Black. But I actually like the white's pokemon better soooooo yeah. 

dude the black one, easily.

I still wish they would have held out to put a Pokemon at launch with the 3DS. Would have been big. New Pokemon + new handheld = cash. Lots of cash money. 
 
Oh well. Pokemon is one of my favorite time sinks so... here we go again!

Okay so this is allwrong. Reshiram is the Pokemon featured in Black Version, and Zekrom is the Pokemon featured in White. The reason for this is that a black pokemon would not be very visible on a black background, and vice versa. Also the captions are under the wrong Pokemon... Regardless I believe it was confirmed that both Pokemon are catchable in either version so it doesn't really matter which version you get. That said, I'm personally getting Black because Reshiram is way cooler than Zekrom in my opinion.
 
 
 
Also it's Zekrom not "Zerkom". Damn. I'm probably just a dork for noticing all this.

I sold my DS lite maybe I'll pick up a DSiXL or 3DS around the time of this releasing.

black for sure, well i like the white one tooo............... shoot

Matt, you're younger than I realized.  Unfortunate.

I've never played a Pokémon game after the first series (Red/Blue/Yellow). Had tons of fun with it though.

" Dude... just no. Raving on about pokemon ... instead of red dead redemption... WTF are you? U had red in 98, and your still loving it.. reading your article makes me feel dirty, or perhaps your just trying too hard to be liked here at GB "

" Matt, you're younger than I realized.  Unfortunate. "

Looks like digimon oh no

ughhhhhhhhhh
 
these look terrible

Wow, started playing pokemon again recently on some emulators on my mac, it has helped me consume countless hours. I might have to get white version and a DS lol.

I hope this delay is an unofficial confirmation that the game will be for the 3DS instead, but I'm not betting anything on it.

i prefer the shade of white, and reshiram doesn't look too bad either. i have not played a pokemon game since gold / silver so and have never had a DS so this seems like a good excuse to get the 3DS and it be a nice addition to my collection.

I want pokemon black to get psychic bird/flying type pokemon Mewthree!!!

Bought.

I'll be getting Pokemon Black due to the fact that the guy on the cover just screams don't fuck with me!

Interesting fur placement on the white coloured pokemon...  Sorta makes me think rule 4 won't take long with this one.

It doesn't matter if you're Black or White, I'll be getting the giant steel monster man.

I fuckin' love Pokemon.
 
I will totally battle you on launch day Matt.

I'll be getting both games on day one because I always get both games from each major entry. But to answer your question somewhat I always get both games but devote most of my time to one particular game (like Pearl last time around) and in this case it'll be White, although I do really like the legendary from Black.

" @DrDemon said:

" anyone who picks white over black is racist "

"

" @Ariketh:  Good point. The article has been changed to mention that this is a DS game, and not a 3DS game. "

Maybe I'll try it, I hear a lot more in changing from White/Black than the other editions.   
 
To me, Pokemon has always been about Red/Blue (and arguably Yellow).  There's only ever been room for 151 pokemon in my heart, the rest just don't seem to fit.  Maybe White/Black will change that, but I'd almost rather see (yet another) remake of Red/Blue instead.

God I can't wait for this to come out. They need to hurry and release the rest of the 5th generation pokemon, they are playing with my emotions
