[B2/W2] [Spoiler]Akuroma

[Vsjester13]

The one thing i'm gonna add is the fact that no matter what someones gonna get dissapointed about this character when his role is fully explaned

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

^ Proably since so many people have different views of him someone is bound to be wrong...unless he's a Plasma leader, who is also champion, evil, a researcher who turns good, etc.

[Vsjester13]

Well i know i am since my idea is that he's ethier an evil mastermind that's been pulling the strings sine B/W or he's a world renowed spy

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

^ That would be a totally unexpected thing...I mean pulling Ghetsis' strings...

His presence in the world Tournament (which Alder is the only champ not shown apart from Wallece), the moon theme opposite to Alder's sun look, the helping the player in the journey all make him sound likes the new Champ.

[XanderO]

Well with Bulbapedia finally updating their site with the Dengeki Magazine's review, They list Alder as still the Champion of Unova, so its hard to say that Akuroma is the new Champion. Kinda need for the game to release I guess to verify either claim.

I would say he is probably working under or secretly controlling Ghetsis. That being sad, he is probably just a big boss to fight rather than a Champion.

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

Well that blew that theory up unless this is another Bianca is champ kind of rumor but I doubt it.
Akuroma could be part of the international police aka a better version of Looker. Perhaps he pretends he joins Plasma to ruin their plans from the inside.

[potent445]

Apparently he's a team plasma boss. Thats whats said on serebii. Found a photo as well

[Reshiram Man]

Here's Serebii's posts:

Spoiler:

14:23: Achroma is confirmed as a Plasma Boss
14:26; Achroma's team: Magneton Level 50, Magnezone Level 50, Metang Level 50, Beeheeyem Level 50, Klinklang Level 52

His team is really steel and psychic heavy, but it seems to be a moderate challenge nonetheless.

[PlatinumDude]

I knew that Akuroma was involved with Team Plasma all along...but still, in the trailer, didn't he say that Team Plasma's ideals were wrong? (unless he has own ideals)

[dragonomega]

Lmao I always thought he was Plasma's boss anyway? Oh well.

Ew @his team though.

[Reshiram Man]

His team matches him well, though. Steel and Psychic types fit his character design and it just seems like he would have them types of pokemon.

[Forever]

lmao I suck I just accidentally spoiled #tpc @ my shock with this, oops!

But yeah, that's quite weird. He could mean the other Team Plasma tho, or try to fool you like Ghetsis!

[Reshiram Man]

Here's a little more info on Achroma:

Spoiler:

Achroma, when first battled, has got Klink and a Magneton

[XanderO]

He could be talking about the Stealing Pokemon to release them and creating an ideal world for Pokemon thing that N was trying to do seeing as Akuroma is Leader of the Black Beret Plasmas who are stealing Pokemon to take over the world (Team Rocket much?)

[Kenshin5]

Yeah I am pretty sure Akuroma was alluding to Knight Plasma. And talk about this being one of the most predictable things we have ever had.

[Aquarius1997]

Serebii also said you battle Ghetsis too,so its still probable that the black berets and the knights are owned by different leaders, also supporting this is the picture that showed ghetsis next to kyurem if Ghetsis is next to kyurem the main point in the game where is akuroma

[Jellicent♀]

I KNEW HE WAS EVIL.
His team is just...ok. Like, predictable, and yet icky at the same time. It's as if they tried to give him every steel type possible and yet make him seem like a scientist at them same time.

[Nepse]

I hope his Metang holds an eviolite, otherwise it would just be silly for him not to have a Metagross.

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

Wow predictable sigh I hoped they would've subverted this...
His team sounds alright, it fits him quite well.

[Aquarius1997]

His team fits quite well with his character i dont know why people hate his team
I posted this in the team plasma speculation thread but it fits here too

I'm not 100% up to date on the Plasma information that has been released, but it'd seem that Old Plasma are against New Plasma, thus they are looking to do good rather than evil.
That screenshot is certainly interesting; I'm going to assume that N is definitely against Ghetsis

OMFG i know the story

Old plasma ruled by ghetsis
While new plasme is awaiting Ns return but Akuroma has took the the place as the leader
Thats why he said he opposes team plasmas ideals he despises ghetsis' team ideals
It all makes since now

[bwburke94]

As soon as we saw his name, it was obvious. Remember what it means in Japanese.

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

Colorless so I'm guessing He wants there to be no Black or White, nor Grey morality?
Or the Akuma in it meaning demon which yeah pretty evil give away xD
So is he the leader of Black plasma as predicted?

[Zayphora]

What if Ghetsis is, like, a loner or something, and maybe he's not running Black Plasma after all? That would let Akuroma be the leader of Black Plasma.

In terms of predictability, this was so predicted by so many people, it's a wonder it wasn't agreed on sooner.

[Cosmotone8]

Well maybe he is the leader of new team plasma and ghetsis is leader of old plasma still. On serebii it showed that they split up into two teams, so that's a high possibility. Especially since your supposed to battle ghetsis too. Maybe N is good and helps you defeat the two teams. He did seem to show some signs of being good towards the end of BW
