(2) ‘Pokemon Smash’ Announcing a New Game, New Movie 15th Poster: Two Kyurem Formes, Meloetta Reveal

I'm really hoping this is a GSC-type sequel. Just imagine the region 10-20 years in the future, the cities changed, new gyms, new areas, and brand new amazing features and characters. A new story with an older version of N, and someone trying to bring back Team Plasma. I have high hopes for these games, and Nintendo is doing everything right for now. With the US reveal on the same day as the Japanese one, I'm expecting very similar release dates.
 
From Masuda's Twitter:

"Came from the official! RT @ Pokemon_cojp:!! "June 2 Pokemon Black and White 2" 2012 [game], http://bit.ly/xGgDQS simultaneous release of two"
 
I don't know why people complain about Kyurem fusing with Reshiram and Zekrom. It was already stated in Black and White that Reshiram and Zekrom were once the same Pokemon and it was implied that Kyurem was also part of the same dragon, all this does is confirm the latter. The plot will probably be N fusing The Pokemon he caught it the last game (Reshiram if it was White or Zekrom if it was Black) with Kyurem and then for the rest of the game attempting to fuse it with the remaining dragon to create the original Dragon. Hopefully they include a 3rd alternate form for Kyurem after you beat the story and catch all three Dragons, or if they really want to milk this gen for all it's worth they could do a 5TH version with the final, or "Original" form of Kyurem.

Maybe it just means both games? I'd need to see a less ambiguous Tweet to believe that it comes out the same day worldwide.

To clean up the google translation:

It's official! RT @ Pokemon_cojp: [Game] 「Pokemon Black 2 • White 2」Released simultaneously on June 2nd, 2012!

Does this mean a release date on the same day for US and Japan?
Or does it mean both versions are going to come out on the same day? (Pretty obvious anyway)

2本同時発売 is pretty obviously referring to the games, not international releases of the games.
 
Still looking into it but there is a strong possibility the release date is the same for the U.S. and Japan.
 
Oh snap oh snap oh snap.

A simultaneous release date! This is like a canon wish for everyone. Fingers crossed for a more official announcement.
 
When I first saw this, I was honestly disappointed. I mean, to call it Pokemon Black 2 and White 2? Then to combine two pokemon into one? I thought that was really stupid. But, now hearing some ideas, I think these will be really cool games.

First off, its a real sequel. I wonder if we'll as a different character. If it is a sequel, that means it would have to continue form BW. Playing as the other characters wouldn't make sense if we would have to get new starters again.

Second, in the legend, it says that Kyruem, Zekrom, and Reshiram were once all combined. Here, we only have two out of the three. Maybe there will be another forme that has all three combined.

Last, I'm just a little bit confused as to why Zekrom and Reshiram would switch game titles. I would have thought that Kyram/Kyrom would have stayed with what Zekrom and Reshiram were in. But I must say, these games seem really interesting. I cna't wait for more info.
 
Anyone who can read Japanese, what does this say?

Is it just "Also plays on 3DS" or is it something different?

It says 2. I don't know if it has been confirmed on this thread yet (I read to page 6), but I really don't know if I should be getting excited,

Is it a "3rd game"
or is it a SEQUEL in that it continues the story?

If the former, forget it, I'm not buying a third game until I can get it for $20. If the latter, DO WANT. If it has 3DS features SO MUCH MORE WANT. I was rather annoyed with B/W with it not being on 3DS. And by the looks of Nobunaga's (Right?) Ambition and B/W2 I'm actually feeling more annoyed and disappointed then excited. I want a 3DS Pokemon. :<

The text from the Japanese website says "Completely new adventure". Guy who brought us that tidbit clarified that it might be brand new story, or just brand new features. But either way, it seems to be a lot more different that third versions normally are.

Now this may sound long winded and confusing, but hear me out

Notice how the '2' in the black and white logos are Blue/Red? This may refer to the colors that reshiram/ Zekrom glow, but it could also refer to the colors of, guess what.... Kyogre And Groudon!!!!! Could the hoenn storyline be in these games as well?

Just noticed as well the '2's also have visible lines in them, could this also represent the body lines on Kyogre/Groudon?

Now I know this may be unlikely, but never have there been direct sequels to pokemon games like this before, and this was huge surprise to us all, but gamfreak are known to surprise us even more before games are due to be released.

What do you think?

That was my first thought when I saw the logos. Then when the "Completely new adventure" part came, I was also thinking Hoenn with these formes for some reason.

ニンテンドー3DSでも遊べるよ!

trans: You can play on the nintendo 3DS!
 
Well, Masuda Tweeted again,
フォロアーのみなさんにもう一つお知らせが、、出来そう!!!ちょっと待って!
But I don't know Japanese and Google Translate turned it into this:
"Notice that one, so can another follower to everyone! ! ! Wait a minute!"

So I really don't know if this means anything. Looks like he might make another announcement soon, though.

DUMB! Why would they put that in when all DS games play on the 3DS!

Have you considered the possibility that this means that Black 2 and White 2 are released in Japan on the same day?

Some people get really confused about it. Like how stuff used to say "Only for Game Boy" or "Only for Game Boy Color", when it could all be played on GBA.
