Forums - Nintendo - New Pokemon for Black/White revealed, plus additional info

... Interesting thing about the monkey trio and their gym leaders, but creating another triple set of Fire/Water/Grass-type Pokémon isn't really nice to me.

1st Pokemon game in a LONG time that Im excited for.



i think the new pokemon generation is much better better than the 4th gen

i think is similar to 2nd and 3rd gen, in  quality



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

Initially i thought the designs were just plain bad. TBH one of the worst starting Pokemon I've ever seen. But the newer ones have been looking much more solid. But no matter what i'm still gonna be hyped for this, cause it gives you that feeling that Pokemon red did, u don't know what you're gonna catch, how strong they are, whether they evolve into something cool or lame. 



Here is a little insight at the development of Black/White between Junichi Masuda and Ken Sugimori:

- number 1 focus with these titles was to create new Pokemon
- both were worried that Black/White would be viewed as the same thing as Diamond/Pearl, which is why they set out to radically change things
- some of the suggestions for changing the series that Masuda made were so shocking that the team didn't think they would work
- Masuda wanted to take the known and expected features of the Pokemon series and break them
- Sugimori's reaction to Masuda's plans for change: “Don’t give me so much work…”
- with these titles, Masuda took on the role of the “idea man,” while Sugimori was the “damper,” to prevent Masuda from going too far
- Masuda brought about a bunch of changes in very rapid succession
- Sugimori described this situation as a truck where Masuda was the driver. Masuda was always pressing down on the gas, going forward. Sugimori was in charge of the brakes.
- much greater changes than any other Pokemon title
- a 200-page draft document with all the new ideas for this game does exist
- Sugimori read every page, and picked it apart sentence by sentence, “What do you mean by ‘crossing the bridge?” or “How would you ‘take part in other people's games?”
- Masuda's big changes and Sugimori's conservative nature lead to a game that has some radical changes, but still retains the Pokemon feel

I have to admit, the bull comes off as the hairy black version of Tauros, I kinda like it. I just hope this doesn't cause another stupid controversy like Jinx did! All the others looks cool so far.

Wow, love how they mention Masuda as the crazy headbanger and Sugimori as the calm classical... :D

"The bull is called Baffuron, is the Headbutt Bull Pokémon, is 1.6m & 94.5kg is a Normal type and has the abilities Reckless & Herbivore. It has a new move called Afro Break"

................... I have a new favorite Pokemon.



More details:

- ever since Platinum, Masuda was wondering “How can I keep a hold of these fans?”
- discussion of this idea brought about favorite topics of this generation, as well as the usage of kanji in the game
- usage of TMs - TMs can be used more than once
- the region, Isshu, is very distant from those of the previous games, no old Pokémon are appearing in the game, unless certain conditions are met
- Masuda felt that children were having too much trouble completing the main story of the game
- the map has been made more linear and easy to understand
- there are multiple ways to reach your next destination if you so choose to look for them
- the dev team struggled with figuring out what were the basic elements of Pokemon when trying to change the series up with Black/White
- Sugimori felt the series was always based in reality
- there was a goal of not making the Pokemon too fantasy-based, or too outlandish
- gyms and Pokemon Centers are introduced very quickly in Black/White
- a theme of love and peace was important for the game
