BW/BW2 English starters names revealed for B/W?(not confirmed)

[shinyshadow]

I got my copy of game informer yesterday and it had a preview of black and white. the preview had no english pictures, just japenese ones, but it mentioned the intro and had an intrigueing line(quote) "players will be able to pick from Tsujara(the grass starter), Mijumaru(the water starter) and Pokabu (the fire starter)." This maybe them stating the japanese names, but there is no indicator of that in the article. I think it may just be the japanese names and they forgot to mention it, because no of them changed (that i know of)

Is there even a point to this thread? Of course the names weren't revealed.

Excuse me, but Game Informer is reffering to the Japanese release, not the American Release, besides, Game Informer is not an official Nintendo liscensed magazine, the American names for the starters will be revealed as soon as an official source says so, and so far, Pokemon.com has not even revealed ANY information on Black and White, only the legendaries, no pictures, no trailers, no NOTHING, just those two dragons and a vague "Spring 2011" release date, that's just about it....

My brother gets the same magazine, and I read the article. The names are simply romanized versions of the Japanese names of the starters, and not the official English names, like Masterge77 said. Aside from them stating there are 156 new Pokémon (this includes the hidden Legendaries we're not supposed to know about yet), there wasn't anything interesting or important from the article.

And Evolution, there have been a few names that have remained the same as their Japanese counterparts. Reshiram and Zekrom are some recent examples.

Anyway, I don't see a point in leaving this thread open since it's already been stated the names aren't the official English names.
