First English Pokémon Black and White Trailer

Ah Pokémon; the time-vacuum of my youth.  I’ve spent rather a few too many hours ‘catching them all’ over the years, but in all honesty the once magic formula was starting to wear a bit thin.  Pokémon Black and White intends to fix this with a raft of changes and additions.  A graphical overhaul, a new world, and new Pokémon will hopefully ignite the spark that, in my opinion, has been missing for a few years.  Check out the first English trailer below.

  1. I’m just going to say it, I love pokemon. Me and my sister have had every game between us at some point, and this will be no exception. Heart Gold and Soul Silver were a great return to form even if they were just remakes.

    The new pokemon on this look terrible but the world looks brilliant. We shall see.

  2. Oooh Comic Mischief.

  3. ok this game lookes pretty nice=)
    will it be for the DS only??
    I played the silver verson alot whn i was about 10-11 years old… but i played them alot after that too… and before that it was PokéMon Red all the way… havn’t tried the games after that… should be interesting to see more from this, maybe buys a DS for this=)

    • Yep DS only, hopefully launching in March.

  4. I’m quite the Pokèmaniac myself, but I do agree, the formula certainly is dragging old. Not decided whether this is a buy or not, not yet.
    What i’d personally like to see, is a open-world Pokèmon-game for the Wii, or maybe Nintendo’s next homeconsole. If done right, it could be a killer.

  5. Wow, Pokemon – really takes me back. The last one I played was Pokemon Gold/Silver, and how I used to love the games. The way it looks now just seems odd & uninspiring. Won’t be getting it, but thanks for the jog back in memories =]

  6. Sucker for Pokemon, will probably get this :P

  7. Another 150?! How many are there now?! I loved the originals (Red, Blue, Yellow) and absolutely played them to death but never bothered beyond those. How long can they keep going with these games?

  8. Is this gonna be on 3DS?
    Because that’d rock

  9. Sooner or later they are going to run out of colors and/or metals to name there games after.Also is it just me or are the starter pokemon getting worse and worse looking.they are runing out of ideas

  10. I guess I’m getting a 3DS then, comes out at the same time and looks great.
