More clearer scans from the recently leaked CoroCoro have been revealed on the 2ch boards. Along with this, a wealth of information is now made available on the upcoming Pokémon Black and White Versions including new characters, Pokémon evolutions and game features.
The first two pages of the scans reveal information on the beginning of the game:
- Professor Araragi apparently gives the player the Isshu starter Pokémon to begin their Pokémon journey and asks to share them with the player's two childhood friends Belle and Cheren.
- Belle is described as a spontaneous person who goes on Pokémon journey against the wishes of her father. She is known to be unreliable at times.
- Cheren is described as being intelligent and trustworthy, and he wishes to become the Isshu champion. He tends to give advice to the player on their journey.
The 4th and 5th pages talk about another character, N:
- The routes seem to have been reset, as the game begins on Route 1.
- N, is seen as an antagonist. He continuously challenges the player in order to confirm his ideas of justice. He calls Pokémon "Friends", but one of the screen shots shows him saying that he wants to split humans and Pokémon and divide them so that it is a black and white world. He has the unique idea to set Pokémon free from people. He's looking for the power to bring his idea to reality.
The 6th and 7th pages have details on triple battling:
- The triple battles are set up so that the middle Pokémon is able to target all 3 Pokémon, while the ones on the sides can only target their opposite sides. Pokémon positions are able to be switched on the bottom screen with a button. It is said that if a Pokémon in the middle attacks, there will be some kind of attack boost.
- There is a new ability called Telepathy (テレパシー), which prevents damage to team-mates (with the ability) when an attack that would normally hit them is used.
- A currently unnamed attack similar in function to the ability, which prevents damage to all team-mates.
The 8th and 9th pages details on the differences in the versions of the games:
- Rankurusu and Gochiruzeru are said to be Version exclusives, though it isn't clear which game each is in.
- Black City is exclusive to Pokémon White, while White Forest is exclusive to Pokémon Black
- The same cities vary in appearance in each game.
