Pokemon Designer Explains New Legendary Monsters

Strong, sharp, lots of lines

Pokémon Black & White aren't just offering new features like online video chat, three-on-three battles and seasonal gameplay: two of the biggest new additions are slapped right on the front of the box. Legendary Pokémon Reshiram and Zekrom take centre stage on the game's box art, but how did Pokémon master Ken Sugimori craft the two new titans?

Contemplating polar opposites, Sugimori thought of "man versus woman" and settled on different silhouettes, with Game Freak director Junichi Masuda giving specific instructions: the Pokémon had to be cool. Sugimori used straight lines instead of curved lines, with a focus on "sharpness" to bring the cool creatures to life. The crowning glory for each monster, Sugimori says, is the thick tail that emphasises their powerfulness.

These two new Pokémon promise to be the ultimate goal for new trainers to catch when Pokémon Black & White launch in North America on March 6th, with a European release on March 4th. We'll have a full review of the new games available before launch.

When the list was leaked alot of GameFAQs members were BAWWWWWing about Cofagrigus. See if you can guess why.

 

[ILoveWaffles]

Cofagrigus was officially revealed before the leak.

 

[8socc3r]

Can't we call Cof*grigus Cofegrigus? It stops that censor showing up.

I read something interesting in Nintendo Power, apparently you have to go through the game with only the new pokemon. You can find any of the old ones until you beat the champion. I find that kinda neat and more challenging.

Yeah, but I'm going to trade so I can bring my Staryu.

I hope you can trade around the first gym, since that happened in the previous Pokemon games.

If they won't let you catch the old ones then I doubt you can trade them in until you get the national dex.

I have few questions, and please keep the answers spoiler free.

1.  Is there a VS seeker like in Fire-Red or Platinum?

2.  What's the highest level trainer in the game?

>mfw none of us can read moonspeak so we didn't import it

I give up.

 

[ILoveWaffles]

Apparently you can use a feature called "Dream World" where you get the old pokemon with a new/alternate ability, I think you can use this after the first or second gym so old pokemon might be available. For now we'll just have to wait and see.

I believe it's done in a flashgame on the internet or something like that.

Purchase Pokemon Black or White Promptly for an Easy Victini

Eager beavers get a Liberty Pass

Pokémon Black and White reaches North America on March 6th, and if the Pokémon preorder bonuses haven't convinced you to get the game straight away then Nintendo is hoping its new giveaway will seal the deal.

Pokémon trainers who purchase the game in North America between March 6th and April 10th can receive a Liberty Pass via Wi-Fi Connection, opening up the path to collect the Mythical Pokémon Victini, an otherwise unobtainable monster.

The world's only Fire and Psychic type Pokémon, Victini's unique Victory Star ability increases the accuracy of every Pokémon on the player's team whilst in battle, which should come in handy for the double and new triple battles throughout the game.

We're working our way through the world of Pokémon Black for our review – if you have any questions, drop them in our Pokémon Black forum topic and we'll do our best to answer.

    Nintendo and The Pokémon Company are giving Pokémon™ fans yet another reason to get revved up for the March 6 launch of the Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version video games for the Nintendo DS™ family of systems. Consumers who purchase either of the new games between launch and April 10 will be able to receive a special Liberty Pass via Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection (broadband Internet access required), which will enable them to catch the never-before-seen Mythical Pokémon Victini™.

    Victini – the Victory Pokémon – is the first Pokémon that’s Psychic- and Fire-type and cannot be obtained through normal game play. It is said that Victini creates an unlimited supply of energy, which it shares with others. This energy source may be the secret to how it brings about victories. Victini’s unique and exclusive Victory Star ability not only increases its own accuracy in battle, but also boosts the accuracy of all a player’s Pokémon in battle. Victini is a must-have in any Pokémon battle, and is especially useful in Triple Battles, which debut in Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version.

    Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version include more than 150 never-before-seen Pokémon that players can catch, train and battle as they progress through the game. Both games are now available for pre-order from major retailers throughout the United States for a suggested retail price of $34.99 each. A deposit may be required for pre-orders. See individual retailers for details.

Man, I better snatch this too. Though I might need clarification if you can still get this Pokemon if you pre-order it...
