We'll probably get an American release date for the new Ranger game before long. I'm guessing at least by June.

Nobody has looked at the manga section in weeks, really, so I'll post it here. Some bookstores (like mine) are putting out Pokemon Adventures Volume Six early! I dunno, this may be normal, but I just thought I'd let you know.

Apperently, if you bring a Hall of Origin Arceus to HGSS, it can be used to get to Sinjoh ruins to pick an other dragon if you had the event Arceus go there!

We've known about this for a while, actually.

Serebii made an update on the site about it, and I know a few people said so before that here, as well.

Also Lupine_One we've known about that one as well.

You do realise we posted about that on Friday

We posted this at the very start of February and did testing for it in January :/

Within Internet message boards, blogs, email listserves and even on news sites where comments can be posted, there may exist discussion threads, sometimes also called topic threads or threaded discussions. A discussion thread refers to two separate but related things. First they are the act — which may be handled by software or a moderator — of grouping together all comments or discussion on the same topic. Second, a discussion thread can be defined as one topic under discussion by a group. The thread is a single focused topic, in most cases, and all comments concerning the topic are listed with it.

*blinks* Wh- what? This is new. I can understand spambots saying "CLICK HERE FOR NATURAL MALE ENHANCEMENT LOLZ" but just posting random... whatever this is? What?
Jigglychu is confused!
Ouch! I hurt myself in my confusion!

My local Barnes and Nobles has been doing this since PokeAdventures started re-releasing in the U.S. They continue to put it out a week early. Fine with me.

People, the new Pokemon games will be called Pokemon Black and Pokemon White versions.

Check Pokebeach if you don't believe me. Sorry if everyone already knows this.

Well, if they're not the most controversial names in Pokémon history...

Trust me, they won't be called that in English (if they even get translated into English). Maybe Pokémon Shadow and Pokémon Light?

[BCVM22]

You're joking.

Wow, are you serious? Pokemon is a huge cash cow, they'd translate the games into English even if the names were Pokemon Crackhead and Sh*tface. (Of course they might alter the names, but still...)

But I doubt they'll change Black and White. They've never changed version names before, IIRC.

Well, yes they are controversial names, but they are also very basic names.

So, with the possible controversy aside, it seems the new set is going to bring us back to basics? Just a thought...

[Indragon]

They're colours - the most basic ones at that. Controversial? Really?

[DarkLegend]

Um guys? Lionhead Studios and Peter Moneleux had a duology of games called Black and White in which you could essentially be GOD or the DEVIL. This is nothing.

It's not called Pokemon Cracker and Pokemon ******.

This.

Judging by those logos...

I'd say this is going to be darker than the Pokémon we know and love.

I guess Masuda was right when he said that Pokémon would be reborn!

Oh good lord, stop. To try and arrive at any sort of conclusion from logos and particularly to conclude that these will be "ZOMG ZOMG SUPER DARK OMG" and "Pokémon will be reborn!" is just devoid of any and all common sense, particularly when Masuda said nothing of the sort and you're taking words that were probably already warped by translation (no, literally; "You will ask, 'is this Pokémon?'!" is what he said) and twisting them to suit whatever whiz-bang-whoosh thought process you operate by.

I know that as a habit, you make no effort to adhere to any sort of logic or reason when posting, particularly when it comes to new material in which we still have huge gaps of the unknown, but make some effort to control yourself, hm?

[Indragon]

Um...as much as I would like to have darker games (well, not so much now - HGSS wasn't dark but it's brilliant), I can't see how that logo tells us anything. It looks cool and has a nice colour scheme, but judging that the games will have dark storylines by just looking at those logos is something I can't understand.

[NES]

I'm fine with these names, i like the simplicity of going back to colors.

[Hydrohs]

You guys are looking way too far into this. Pokemon Black and White were, I think, one of the first names speculated after the original R/G/B/Y. They're just shades, extremely basic. That's it. This isn't racist, this isn't 'darker'. They're just names.

I'm surprised they haven't used them yet, it's about time.
