If it's the third game in Gen V, why the heck is it called Pokémon Black and White 2? That's stupid. Watch it get renamed Grey.

...this is awesome...

Probably because it's apparently an actual sequel instead of a slight improvement like yellow, crystal, emerald

[Hanz]

It's probably called 2 because unlike previous games it may directly play into the events of Black and White. They had the most in depth story of the series so far...

NeoGAF? Good man.

Cool. New pokémans? We'll see.

[Linkmaster30000]

I'm... trying to get excited about this. Black and White were cool, but I didn't get hooked anywhere near as much as I did with Gen IV.

I'll probably end up buying Black 2, but I want to see what the game is like first.

[zezhyrule]

The English name for the games seem to be "Black ver 2" and "White ver 2". I'm betting on a split up Grey.

I'm thinking it'll be a sequel. Though if that's the case, it's gonna have to have a new main character, unless they come up with a reason why you don't have any of your Pokémon anymore.

[Hanz]

I wouldn't be surprised to see a whole new region...I'm pretty much expecting it.

AWWWW YEAH TITANS!

(1st scan) The games are true sequels, taking place two years after the originals.
The Unova region sports new towns, buildings, locations, and Gym Leaders. New subway lines will take you to new places.
Half of the Unova map is covered by ice for unknown reasons.
The Pokédex features 300 Pokémon from every generation. So far, Psyduck is #026, Riolu is #033, Metagross is #254, and Eevee is confirmed but has an unknown Dex number.
Black Kyurem is confirmed to know Freeze Shock and White Kyurem is confirmed to know Ice Burn.
(2nd scan) There are two new protagonists along with a new rival. The rival has text saying, “Now I’m gonna get angry!” He’s the boy with the blue spiky hair. He is your childhood friend.
Homika is a new Poison-type Gym Leader. She’s the girl holding the guitar. She is going to be in an episode of the show in June.
Shizui is also a new Gym Leader who uses Water Pokémon. He’s the tan guy with the goggles.
There is a new “mysterious guy” named Akuroma who is studying Pokémon strength. Sometimes he’ll help you on your journey. He’s the guy with the glasses and white coat.
(3rd scan) You begin your journey in Hiougi City. It is on the map in an area that was previously uninhabited in the original games on the left side of Unova (the southwest side). It features an underwater tunnel made of glass (does it take you to the main region?). The city also sports a Pokémon Center, a Trainer School, and shops.
The magazine points out that there is new construction in the Resort Desert and that there is a new building with red and blue decorations. For the latter it says, “What’s it mean?”

POISON GYM! YESSSSS!
Like the new female design, but the males hair is throwing me off a bit.

EXCITEMENT!

[Linkmaster30000]

(I don't understand the "Titans" thing...)

It looks really sweet, except that the girl PC's hair continues to get weirder every game.

[Frausky]

Good to know that it is a sequel, rather than the Yellow/Crystal/Emerald/Platinum type game split in into 2 games.
