A friend of the webmaster at Serebii obtained a special rental DVD for the new pokemon movie that had some new black and white footage.

The following images are from serebii.net:


What do you think of the images?

I like the starter select screen. It looks really nice. I do not like the new grass tile all too much. In the bottom right image it looks like that car-like thing has appeared again. The bottom left image has a Girl hiker?

EDIT: I added the more recent images.

I really like that blue haired girl's hair.
I wish I could play as her. xD

Some of the trees in that one screenshot look like they're falling over. :P
I really like the graphics so far.

Car thing in the bottom left pic? That looks like a backpacker/hiker if you ask me.
car? what car?
i think it's a new type of hiker.
maybe a girl?
I messed up! I meant bottom RIGHT image. The left image does look like a girl hiker.

am i the only person that thinks the graphics are identical to hg/ss. the just move the camera view around. i dont mean to be a debby downer, but the graphics arent improved from gen 4 at all. i mean yeah they battles have moving sprites, and the cities are more "3d"ish, but its still hg/ss graphics.

after all that, i am still really excited for the games, im not trying to bash them, just when people say, wow thats amazing, they graphics look so good, its just like, wait, its the exact same.

I think the Green building may be the gym. Also, I believe it correlates with the "honeycomb" picture, meaning I'm guessing Hiun hosts a bug-type gym.
The honeycomb gym is in a parachute like building far in the top left of the Isshu region. We found this info out in the recent reveal of the larger more detailed Isshu region map.

The graphics are SIMILAR. They arent the same. Its a slight step up from them. Just like DPPT graphics are SIMILAR to HGSS graphics, but not the same.

The graphics look great and I'm used to two of the new starters... not the damn water one though -_- It's ugly as hell



I don't calculate stat values, I don't breed my way to perfection, and I don't care about natures. I catch my Pokemon the way they are, and treat them like individuals instead of brainless drones.

I agree, the starter selection does look waaaaayy too boring. No Poke'balls or anything???

And I think the trees and water look messed up because these are still images. Since the game is 3D and you're moving almost constantly, maybe they really are correct and they'll look better in the game. I've noticed this with HG/SS as well.

The starter selection looks awesome! I like how the pokemon are hand drawn, not pixel art. Oh, and it seems as if the Pokemon are not in Pokeballs...could this mean you get the Pokemon in a different way than the traditional Professor way? City looks great as usual (although, im still not like the different angles), and OMFG that girl has blue hair! :3
New grass tiles...I think we can all agree that they SUCK! Hahaha...so does that hiker =/
Bridge...again, not liking the angles...oh well :(

The starter selection look WAAAAYYY too bland. And the Sky Arrow Bridge has the water messed up, it's tilted for some reason. It's not straight.
I think the reason the water is "tilted" is because the shore isn't perpendicular to the bridge. In other words, the shore is actually tilted at an angle.

Contrary to your opinion, I actually think the opposite on the few images given. The starter selection screen to me seems a bit "too simple" should I say. Compared to what we were given in HeartGold and SoulSilver, it just feels as though with this generation, they could have done better when it comes to choosing your desired Starter Pokémon. Then again, this is only a matter of a few seconds if you already know which starter you want to choose, so it isn't much of a big deal really.

As for the new grass tiles, I like them. Being honest, these grass tiles actually look very tropical in my opinion. Giving me a thought that it would be cool if they choose to use difference styles of grass tiles varying upon the region's geographic nature (i.e. mountainous, snowy, desert, tropical, etc).

Other than that, the graphics for these games are only impressing me more and more. I really like their different view aspects of Sky Arrow Bridge and how it looks when I trainer goes up to buildings.

I dont like the grass, i liked the grass from HG/SS. it looked more natural and realistic.
