This rumor came to be after the Spanish site [http://www.meristation.com/v3/GEN_portada.php Meristation] published an interview with Pokémon designer {{bp|Mana Ibe}} in which it was denied that there would be a third version of Pokémon Black and White. Junichi Masuda dispelled those rumors. He stated that he did not recall ever saying there would not be another version, and that he was very surprised to hear about the rumor.

Pokémon Black and White will see their English language debut on March 4 in Europe, with the North American release following two days later.
It is not known why Mana Ibe and Junichi Masuda did not make similar statements. The former was also present during the more recent interview with GameTrailers, but she was not asked about her previous comment.
