Aloe
 
Okay, well in the new promotion video for bw on pokebeach there is a trainer named Aloe, unlike most trainers in the Pokemon games, she is black. Now Pokemon doesn't regularly include characters that are not white or tan, so this is quite odd. She seems to me like a healer, as there are many healers and witch doctors on the continent of africa, the rooms she is in looks like an E4 room instead there are like some sort of glass cases and tile floors. It actually reminds me of a champion's room. Watch the video if you haven't already and speculate. What do you think of aloe?

She's black... That's it. I don't see why people are going crazy with excitement about it.

The reason that there weren't any black people in previous Pokémon games is simply because... Well... When was the last time you saw a black person in Japan?

There aren't even that many, if any, white people in the game. They are all Japanese.

Champion would be awesome, I'd love another female champion. Cynthia <3

Though I'm more leaning towards the idea that she's probably one of the early gym leaders.

Bluerang1 July 31st, 2010 11:25 AM

My only question is 8if she's the only one in the whole game. And NPCs... also ,it' be great if she's Champion ^___^ But I'm thinking Gym Leader over Elite 4.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 31st, 2010 11:41 AM

I'm guessing she's a Gym leader...what type...lets see glass box, could she have Psychic...or maybe rock...

Perriechu July 31st, 2010 11:43 AM

I Strongly think she is an E4 because of the room >.< Looks like the champion room for the Hall of Fame, but why would their be a battle :S, I Think she is an E4 or 7/8th Gym Leader

Jaiyke July 31st, 2010 12:44 PM

I'm sure if she was the Champion the Challenge Sequence would be ALOT more intense
like Cynthia's it would probably have a different Camera Angle and things would be all
WHOOSHY like >.> sorry for my third grade Onomatopoeia =DDD it's fun >.>;

Anyway, i really like her =DD and yeah probably an early Gym Leader i'm gonna go ahead
and say she is a Psychic Gym leader too... since there was a rumor stating Psychic Gym would be one of the first

and i know it's just a rumor but some (no a FEW) rumors have come to pass so whatev

sabapple July 31st, 2010 12:52 PM

.... Does she really need her own thread? @[email protected] Skin color doesn't really matter people! -_- People are people! That's it!

But yes, it is kinda exciting to see her! I love her hair ^^; But I think that she's just a gym leader. And I'm guessing that we'll see a few other black NPC's throughout the game,

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 31st, 2010 12:57 PM

Yeah color doesn't really matter, what I care for here is what position she is in...

I don't see what's wrong with discussing it. I mean, no one's said anything incriminating. It's just a little curiosity.

I don't think she's a gym leader (but what else would she be with the mugshot and all?), and if that's an E4 room that's definitely a downgrade from Gen 4. They seem to be in some office. Note the desk behind.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 31st, 2010 1:04 PM

Wait I just looked at her clothing and the desk...could she be a teacher at the pokeschool...

Agent Clank July 31st, 2010 1:14 PM

^Magma,you could be right :)
But I also think she might be a Gym Leader and that her type will be Psychic.
I don't think she will be the Elite 4 Champion though...

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 31st, 2010 1:19 PM

Yeah I doubt she is an E4, the room looks way different than past E4 rooms...

Haza July 31st, 2010 1:26 PM

She could be a teacher at a PokeSchool like MRAS said. Her clothing says so...

MegaKuriboh July 31st, 2010 1:27 PM

Yay Black People

This is awesome She reminds me of Michael Jackson

She looks evil to me maybe she might be an admin of Team Plasma?

If she is a Gym Leader (assuming we have Gyms this time (Hopefully)) I'm guessing she will specialize in Psychic Pokemon she reminds me of lucian and Will

and MORE proof the Isshu is based on NYC yay!

Edit: And with MRAS maybe she might be a teacher

Perriechu July 31st, 2010 1:33 PM

Ah... i think Magma's got it right... ;-;
@Pokemon trainer Kevin, that's what i though :/ although i posted her being a Gym leader or E4 but i changed my mind after Mulling it,
But MRAS has got it

Yeah,you could be right also. (I still love Magma's Idea)
Her clothes do look a litte old timey (going along with the Team Plasma's old timey outfits) so she could be a high ranking Team Plasma member.

Perriechu July 31st, 2010 1:37 PM

Actually now that you say that :/ The battle could be taking place in the headquarter's

MegaKuriboh July 31st, 2010 1:39 PM

Why do I keep thinking Michael Jackson!?

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 31st, 2010 1:40 PM

The room reminds me of the Devon companies room with the cases and the chair actually so could this battle be taking in Isshu's tech HQ?

Yeah,cause the desk looks like where the head of Team Plasma would be sitting and He got away at the last minute and told Aloe to stall for him,so then the battle unfolds.

Perriechu July 31st, 2010 1:42 PM

Yes, Maybe MRAS was Wrong, Maybe we figured it out :D, but she could be a teacher. she doesn't look evil Enough :/
@Pokemon trainer Kevin, Your the only one who thinks that

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire July 31st, 2010 1:45 PM

Maybe she's the boss of this region's tech co and she decides to battle you and if you win you get the Gear (that's this gen's device right?)

Umbrella July 31st, 2010 1:47 PM

Finally we have someone Black in the game. I like her hair color. I'm pleased.

Mabey but Magmaruby has a very good idea also.
She doesn't have to look evil mabey she is a serious member that doesn't like to show emotion.
