Personally I'd love for the Shadow Triad to be working on whatever schemes they plan, on their own. After the whole big deal with Team Plasma, N, and Ghetsis, it would be nice to have them notice "weakness" in that fight and take on actions of their own against both sides for these games. None of the previous Pokémon games had three opposing evil teams, so this would be epic. n_n

Also the games needed them, and the re-appearance was a given. I'm excited though!! :D Even though they creep me out.

I still think they could be Cilan, Cress and Chili. n' like, we haven't really seen or heard from them yet either, which just points towards that imo, notice the frozen city - that could easily be Striaton City. Maybe I'm just over speculating.

I definitely want to battle them, they're too cool to not be battleable D:

And I really am wondering what they're up to with that... scroll, it looks like? I'd speculate that it has something to do with Kyurem, but there's no way to know for sure. At least, not yet~

If we do get to battle them, I wonder if Bisharp is like their mascot Pokémon, and why!

Definitely male. Otherwise, if that's an under cleavage I see, the designs would very much be critised greatly.

Well it makes sense they had a Bisharp, 'cause it's a ninja (sorta?), so we should expect them to have Escavalier too?

I think they'll be appearing a lot more than in B/W and that we'll get to battle them though.

I would think they would have an accelgor.....

Ghetsis had a Bisharp, so the Triad might be using his Bisharp, I mean they do follow his orders, so he probably loaned it to them so they could achieve their goals, whatever they might be
 

Ho-Oh

So, um, are they female? I always thought that they were male.

No they defs look male to me. That hair. idk, they seem old though, so maybe like old male ninjas? Maybe I guess that's why they might seem female, so. XD;

Yeah, I highly doubt they are females. From the trailer one of the members of the triad talks, and his voice actor is a guy.

Plus those muscles do not belong on a female. u_u;

Has no one ever seen guys with long hair before? C'mon, what about those guys who wear pony tails and braid their hair; they exist! This is nothing unusual, really.

SO do you guys think we'll be able to battle them several times, or like at the end of the game (if we do happen to battle them at all)?

^Yeah I think we will be able to battle them this time, at least the appearance of their Pokemon makes it seem that way. I'm hoping it'll be several times, or perhaps we only battle each one once rather than all in one big triple battle. If there are multi I'll like for our final battle to be a triple match.

The long hair I actually like better on them. Makes them a little cooler looking to me, actually. The short hair was just...meh, BUT NOW, OMG SO COOL.

I want to battle them every time they appear. Legit. That'd be so boss to battle those three. Like, maybe a triple/rotation battle can come out of it! 8D
Or something like that, but still, I wanna battle them everywhere possible.

They look like Zoroark pony tails to me, which matches them nicely considering N has Zoroark like hair too...OMG what if they're Zoroarks! (joking here)

I do too, it'll make up for the lack of in BW.

I thought they owe Ghetsis for saving their life or something though...but he told them not to find him. But from the promo, it looks like they're still with him. So N is still with Ghetsis too right? And does anybody else think that they're possibly the Striaton Gym Leaders? Or am I alone? ;o;

Well perhaps Ghetsis called them back (or maybe that scene wasn't canon...). I do think their the Striaton gym leaders...they just seem too suspicious...also if you look at their home town's name it has an S and tria, could the s be a reference to the Shadow in Shadow triad...

Oh my god I never noticed that! You're brilliant! Also, I know you can't really compare the Games, Anime, or Manga, but...has everyone already seen this photo?
Spoiler:

Now look at these Pokemon's faces.
Spoiler:

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't seen the the Striaton Trio at all in any of the Pokemon Black 2/White 2 Promo...and they weren't at N's castle in the previous game...In this game, I'm hoping we get to triple battle them for sure this time!
