[Spoiler]Team Plasma
 
Well it looks like Team Plasma and the Sages are back in Black & White 2!

http://pokebeach.com/news/0512/black-2-white-2/9.jpg

What purpose are they likely to serve in these games? Will N still be in power or will The Shadow Triad make a re-appearance? Discuss! Also notice the sage is mentioning "N"

dnomyar27 May 15th, 2012 4:59 AM

Team Plasma
 
[SIZE="a"]Well, maybe N is good now but with the heroes. the sages are powerful (maybe) or will steal another pokemon. I dont know i cant wait to see em in anime tv[/SIZE]

Spherical Ice May 15th, 2012 5:31 AM

Well, how did the Sages escape from Prison? Perhaps Looker was defeated by them? Or were they let out after two years?

I hope these get answered :D

dreamcatcher May 15th, 2012 6:07 AM

This is totally unrelated to Team Plasma, but those tiles irritate me :I they look unnatural in comparison to the character sprites. But in relation to the topic, I'm glad Team Plasma is back (although I was hoping for perhaps Team Rocket ;-;) they were an interesting team who had a much different goal that the previous evil teams.

~DarkAchu~ May 15th, 2012 6:13 AM

Well for one, they are in a house with random NPCs, and they are not being threatening, so it appears they have changed their ways and are just chilling with their pokemon. Also I believe the Sage is saying something along the lines that they do not know where N is.


Edit - After seeing the new picture from Pokejungle, These must be a splinter group as the picture shows the new Team Plasma which match the Black clothed people in early pictures. So what purpose do these guys serve? Just to give info about the other team and N?

Mew~ May 15th, 2012 7:27 AM

These images have been going around for a few hours now, it's unknown what they are - most likely anime related - but if they are legit I think it's poses a hint towards Team Plasma having a bigger role in these games idk.

That logo on their clothes is the Team Plasma logo, there are wearing different uniforms though. Very interesting. I wonder what role they play exactly? Since N is back I knew they'd be back too.

N isn't back. The screen shot from the game says he is still missing and no one knows where he is. Its the same thing they did with Team Rocket and Giovanni in Gold and Silver.

Ugh. I hate team plasma and was hoping they wouldnt be in it. But whatever. I like the sages though~

Aquarius1997 May 15th, 2012 1:36 PM

Im suprised none of you noticed that the two ladies (who were i think nurses to N in b/w) are in the back room of the house i hope that they actually have a backstory

I noticed them when I saw the pink & yellow, it's Anthea & Concordia and I'm sure they have some involvement considering they seemed to be a part of Plasma and we're kind of unexplained.

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire May 15th, 2012 2:37 PM

I was just about to point that out. Hopefully they will show more of them and how they're related to N...they seem to be around his age so they can't be his Nurses from birth...

Also if those people in black are Team Plasma it's nice to noticed the sudden change from White dominant Uniforms to Black. The fact that they're wearing a different color makes me think they might've broken up into two branches, with a Team Aqua Team Magma dynamic (the one they had in RS not the two sides are bad of Emerald)

Zayphora May 15th, 2012 4:34 PM

K, so they've changed from bizarre knights to bizarre ninjas....These costumes are better though. The mouth guard things are weird.

Apparently they have a large boat.

Zelda May 15th, 2012 5:46 PM

I'm glad Team Plasma is back! Plus the uniforms look great to be quite honest; I like it more than the original ones.

I wonder what they are up toooooooooo.

Jellicent♀ May 15th, 2012 7:41 PM

Yay! This is exciting, especially with their new outfits! It really makes it feels like it's coming into the future. Plus we get a little more info about them from the Sages and whatnot! Yay!

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire May 15th, 2012 8:38 PM

From Past to future? That seems to be a recruting theme in this generation with BW and BW2.
The new costumes are actually pretty cool, they make me think of government ninja's, though the mouth part looks like of odd...

Kenshin5 May 15th, 2012 9:01 PM

I get the feeling this is going to set up as Team Plasma vs. Team Plasma at the end of the day with N leading one branch and Ghetsis leading the other. I get the feeling that the people in the first post screen shots are on N side, including the Sage and the ones in black are obviously antagonizing. Hopefully we finally get to battle the Shadow Triad though.

Ho-Oh May 15th, 2012 9:30 PM

I think Ghetsis won't be in the games tbh. N won't really be a leader since they don't know where he is but he'll likely emerge later. I'd say the shadow triad have taken over the black ones while the white ones are lead by the sages. From the video I think Akuroma is a separate force.

She's right, I don't think Akuroma is the leader of Team Plasma according to the anime-style trailer.

blue May 16th, 2012 2:07 AM

Yeah, I'm leaning more towards the Shadow Triad & Sages being in charge of two groups of Plasma Members (Black & White) if this theory is correct that is. About N well I'll assume he'll either help you take down Team Plasma reversing his role from Black & White or be an important part of it again but maybe not a "leader" this time.

Mr Cat Dog May 16th, 2012 6:44 AM

I just hope that there's some proper resolution this time around. Though I'm not one to really focus on the 'story' of Pokemon games, the way the Plasma arc of BW wrapped up kinda irked me with its lack of closure. I guess it makes sense, given that now there's a sequel, but all I want is a nice bit of finality for these games. Then I'll be happy!

Greenbeans May 16th, 2012 6:58 AM

well thats quite interresting, im looking forward to see how it turns out with team plazma back

ReleaseYourPokemon May 16th, 2012 7:17 AM

if N returns then I really will get this game

N is returning, haha. He was shown in the animation trailer (which you can see here ←), and in Coro Coro scans.

I'm very excited to see what the Shadow Triad is up to, and what they want. Team Plasma as well; their uniforms tell me that they are more serious about things and they actually have a clue. n__n

Jellicent♀ May 16th, 2012 8:13 AM

The Shadow Triad looks cool as heck, yo! o3o
I'm not too excited for N to come back, but at least it will give an epilogue as to what happened to him, which is always fun. <3
The new uniforms are pretty boss, as well. Maybe the new Plasma is ran by the Shadow Triad due to their intense loyalty to Ghetsis. Maybe he ordered them to remake Plasma, and they're just following orders. They never seem evil to me, just loyal to the man who saved their lives.
