It has it's flaws I mean even Gray & Pink would have been nicer but still, I look forward to the progress of these games, it should be interesting and expect the unexpected.

They might just tweak the outfits like they did in Platinum.

If there are new characters hopefully they will have cooler english names.
I wonder how N and the others will have matured?

I agree. You just can't call this a sequel and give us the same protagonists. Unless these are the third games, then I won't even know anymore.

So with this being out a few months before the regular fall release I feel info will be coming twice as fast it did with BW and HG/SS

Well, this is certainly unexpected news now isn't it?

After giving this enough thought, the idea that "Pokémon Black and White 2" could potentially be sequels continuing the story left off in the "Black and White" rather than being a basic third game rehash (i.e. Crystal, Emerald, and Platinum) is actually sort of exciting. It offers you the questions of how different will the actual story line be this time? Will the player be a different male/female protagonist? Will we have a new set of rivals? Will the characters we played as in B&W be mentioned or seen like Red was in Gold, Silver, and Crystal?

It's questions like those as well as the location of where N ran off to, that make this all exciting for me. Of course, that's if "Pokémon Black and White 2" are actual sequels like I mentioned before. If not, then I'll be heavily disappointed. As for the names of Kyurem's new forms, Black Kyurem and White Kyurem, I'm going to have to agree with those calling it uncreative.

As for the red and blue gems we see in the title design, I'm going to make a guess as to that's how we access Kyurem's new Fire and Electric forms just like giving Giritina to hold the Griseous Orb to alter into his Origin Form outside of the Distortion World. I don't think it will have any relation to visiting the Hoenn region in these games - at least I hope not. I want a RS Remake as much as the next person, but I think they deserve their own games.

I do, however, hope that in these potential sequels there will be new lands to explore within the Unova region and that previous generation Pokémon will be available pre-Elite Four. Until we have more information though, I find it hard to give a real opinion on them. Hopefully, it'll make me like this generation more, because so far "Black and White" really hasn't left an impression on me like the other generations have.

But what a curveball though. I'll be getting White 2 since I got Black.

Can I ask what is meant by "Full-Blown sequels"? I've got an idea but eh.

Maybe the game starts in a diffrent location like someone mentioned before, like that town in the top right corner of Unova that the train takes you. They could also add routes that connect that place to the rest of the region other than just taking a train to Nimbasa.

I hate to be the overly cheeky optimist, guys, but I feel this games will actually be incredible. Try not to get too hung up on the titles and names, as they do little to betray the actual storyline and content. These games will likely be the first two truly direct sequels to previous games (not including Gold and Silver to Red and Blue), continuations of the indisputably most thorough and heart-wrenching plot of a Pokemon game. I loved Black and White, and I have no doubt this game will turn out incredible, even if Kyurem's formes look overdone (though the faces are incredible).

I have an odd feeling they may connect the story with other games. Like older people return and maybe you go to another region.

Hate to nitpick, but Anville Town is in the top left corner of Unova. I'm bringing this up because you told someone to turn their head in 90 degrees in one direction earlier when you clearly meant the other direction.

I hope it's not one huge circle like in BW, having to walk through all of Castelia etc. is a nightmare, hopefully they will implement new Routes or something.

I was talking about the logos, if you look at the White's logo red 2 and turn your 90 degrees right you can see flames in the logo.
I'm also hoping for new routes.

Am I the only person that wants this game? Seriously, take off the nostalgia goggles and enjoy it for what it is, not what it isn't.

I'm looking forward to it, it seems like it has great potential :D.
I do want some changes though.

Masuda just revealed the names of the two formes:
Black Kyurem and White Kyurem
Wow I know people are stoked for RS remakes and I am too but I think everyone might be looking into stuff a bit too much. I mean a friend of mine pointed out the red and blue crystal yea, which could be a reference to the crystals in RS - well it's crystallized fire and electricity which are Reshiram and Zekrom's? And crystallized because Kyurem obv. I don't think that pattern means much lol. I could be wrong!! But I'm just saying.

It's been confirmed that the official titles of the games are Black Version 2 and White Version 2, those aren't placeholders. It's also been confirmed that the new forms are simply called Black Kyurem and White Kyurem. Since the version and mascot colors match this time around, I'm getting a strong feeling that what was exclusive to Black will now be exclusive to White and vice versa. This and the fact that they are called "2," which indicates a full-blown sequel, make me one anxious pkmn trainer. I'm more excited for B2W2 than I was for BW.

Well I can honestly say that I am even less excited for B2W2 than I was for BW.

Honestly, this is a very good idea.
Instead of the normal seperate versions then a direct sequel to EACH of them, it's just beautiful.
Don't hate on it, I personally find it a wonderful idea.
Now I'm sure Ruby/Sapphire remakes are coming this way, very soon.

I don't get why people are complaining about the form names. I mean... What do you want? They kinda explain exactly what the forms look like, so...
I mean, the only alternate form that had a decent name that comes to mind is Giratina's 'Origin Forme'. Aside from that, the likes of 'Shaymin's Sky Form' is just as mundane as 'Black Kyurem' or 'White Kyurem'.
I'm genuinely excited about it. I adore continuity between games; that's why GSC were my favourite games. If this is a proper sequel; and there's no real reason to believe it won't be, I suppose; then I couldn't be more excited about it. Surprised as hell, yeah, but definitely excited! :)

The fact that there's two makes me think they may differ quite largely depending on the version i.e a different outcome of the storyline.
