N wasn't the rival though. He was reoccuring Bad Guy like Cyrus, Maxi, Archie, and Giovanni.

Nope. 4chan ruined the leak. We most likely won't find anything out until Saturday during Smash which may not give us the same info.

Wow...not here in this section in, like, weeks, and I find out that the scans are being held up hostage? Stay classy 4chan.

Anyway, I see it as the one on the right (in blue) looks like some cross between Hilda (in facial features) but Hilbert (clothing design and hair, plus overall body shape looking closer to a male). As for the one in red...looks like a rival character to me. It seems as though there is actual time between BW and BW2, so having new protagonists doesn't seem like a big deal to me.

Whenever the news comes, leak or otherwise, I'll mark out as usual.

The person with blue hair doesn't seem to have an afro but simply big spiky blue hair, with what looks like a tennis player head band...
Anyways I would perfer if the one in red was the rival, he/she can be the new Green/blue,Silver,May or Brandon, Pearl, Cheren and Bianca. Also this gender debate brings back nostalgia from when people used to debate Cheren's own gender...

4chan and 2ch were just having a stupid spam war, the people on 2ch aren't really angry at all they are just discussing about Coro Coro like we all are now. They just asked for people to stop posting in English, and that they don't mind if you post there as long as you know Japanese and stop using English.

We can still get leaks. Its only 12.30pm in Japan, people are likely still at work & school. I'd give it another 7 hours or so.

The scans just leaked on 2ch!!!!!!

Looks like Serebii is getting some news in too, apparently it's going to have new trainers, new rival, it's going to be set later in the timeline and Unova is partially frozen?

OH MY GOD, I love the female character. The guy's hair is way too weird for me though. Also, the rival character is a complete and total badass.

It appears that it does take place sometime in the future, as the town on the desert route is finished.
I wonder why half of the Unova region is frozen. :o

There are various new areas in Unova including Hiougi City, where you begin your journey. There are other areas which has a gym leader who focuses upon Poison; Homiga. Another gym leader is Shizui, the Water-type leader. The trainer with the spiky hair is the rival
Hiougi City has a Pokémon Centre and a Trainer School and areas where you can look upon the areas. There are shops, underwater tunnels with clear glass (mantines flowing overhead), building with blue and red statues
Ahhh! So exciting! It sounds great!

I'll tell you what, they never seem to fail when it comes to designing characters. I love most, if not all of those characters shown.

Also, I think half of the map is frozen because they're just hiding the advancements of other towns. Didn't they hide Unova in clouds when they released it or something? Or maybe i'm thinking of something else... Probably that new area in HG/SS.

Either way, I love everything so far. Very happy.

What do you think it means that we have a new rival? Does that mean that Cheren/Bianca aren't involved, or that N isn't involved? Or will we have multiple rivals?

Good stuff so far, OMG the rival looks so badass! I think we may have a worth while rival that we haven't had since Gold and Silver imo.

I KNOW RIGHT?
I want to play as her just so I can name her Leia, and i'm a dude. WTF'S UP WITH THAT?

And Ianz, i'm not too sure what to think on that yet. I imagine we'll get some answers when it gets translated.
Personally i'm pretty happy with that rival character though. He just seems like he's going to be intense and not some happy-go-lucky rival.
Maybe a Gary-like character where he's all snarky.

Seems cool so far~ Kinda feels like all they did was flip the first part of the map cause instead of starting on the right portion we start on the left. Water and Poison Gyms? I wonder who they removed then. Striaton seems pretty obvious as that part of the map is frozen.

Hopefully Riolu is available early on in the game so I can use it as an alternative to starters. Maybe it can serve as Pikachu and the rival gets Eevee xD. Metagross <3, Psyduck please indicate Misty being there jk.

I was gonna name her Usagi! :333 Even her shoes are awesome. And I just love leggings on girls.

I just wonder what they're doing with the first gym if they're making a Water Gym specifically. >_o

That girl is so cooool! The boy has stupid hair. I don't know if i can play 100+ hours with him.

I'm a boy.... I have to choose the girl because she looks cooler...

Professor Oak won't know the difference! :15:

Hiougi City doesn't translate into the previously known villages does it?

Looks like Lucario and Metagross may be Version exclusives. Poster at the bottom of one of the pages as Haxorus, Black Kyurem, and Lucario, while other side has Zoroark, White Kyurem, and Metagross.

I saw the scans and I am now getting the game. The girl looks cooler imo. I also like how they're including Gen I - IV Pokemon.

Adding on to P0kelegend's quote, serebii also stated (for those who haven't seen):

Quote:
The game is set 2 years later than in BW and features Unova being partially frozen. The Unova Pokédex has 300 Pokémon within it. There are various new areas in Unova including Hiougi City, where you begin your journey.
...
It has also been confirmed that Black Kyurem will know the move Freeze Shock and that White Kyurem knows the move Ice Burn.
Within the new Unova Pokédex, which contains a combination of old and new Pokémon, Psyduck is #026, Riolu is #033 and Metagross is #254. We'll bring more should it come later

I really hope that the rival is like Silver, but with the storyline of Gary. I also wonder if we'll have an alternative to the Unova starters, as I have all 3 of those. The last thing I'd really like to know is if we'll have chance to get the other generations starters like we did with HG/SS. What do you guys think?
