What if...the trainers are older and you can use your starter from previous save file?
You know some will do it!

The more I think of this, the more I like it assuming it truly plays out like a unique story sequel.
I assume this will have all the tweaks, updates and add ons that a Grey version would have, but rather than remixing the story, they went for an all out sequel. This gives a true new experience and really should bring more purchases, as I like the idea of a more story based direction.
A Grey version is great for those who missed out of B/W, but this opens it up to everyone with a brand new story. The only missed opportunity IMO is that they are not on the 3DS, but I think most people saw it coming.
Here's hoping for a ton of new content on top of the new story as we could expect from a 3rd "remix" version.

I can't stand competitive multiplayer in most games, Pokemon included. When they add online co-op I'll be there, but Pokemon is 99.9% about single player for me.
This could be pretty cool. Happy to see Game Freak continue to support the DS for so long.
Don't you want to know what happens to N?

Yeah this is basically the SMG2 version of BW, I imagine.
My Pokemon were around level 70 after doing the post-E4 stuff. It would be hard to balance the game if you're starting out at such a high level.

What if they finally increased the level cap? :O

Okay, I'm gonna suggest something crazy here: what if they raised the level cap.
255 to come back?
They're finally making the Missingno. glitch cannon.
That's the ony thing we can guarantee will never happen in Pokemon. The challenge will always be relegated to Battle Towers and MP.

This seems to imply a brand new scenario rather than just being an enhanced version of BW.
I'm OK with this and the fact that it's on DS now that things have had time to sink in.
Until a few hours ago most would of sworn a direct sequel would never happen, too!
I'd rather they just pull a Metroid-style power-strip on us. Let players import their save, same trainer, import your main team, and you start the game where you left off. Then in the prologue of BW2 you could have your Pokemon stolen from you or otherwise lost, and you're stranded in a strange region. You have to start over, working your way back up to champion there, and around the time you clear the E4 of that region, you get your old team back through some plot device.
Though I am disappointed its not for 3DS, I am interested how they will continue the story. Will N travel to a different part of Unova, yet unknown to the player, and then the players from the first game go over there? It would be a little bit off if there were new protagonists given N's connection with the player.
My isshu is that now I feel like Gen VI will happen at the end of the 3DS's life span like Gen 5 appeared at the end of the DS's. Or is Gamefreak still scared of higher resolutions even with the Pokedex 3D models?

wait, so this isn`t a continuation from the first game, but a redo of the first game, or...
It should be a continuation from the first game's story. At least that's what the "2" in the title should mean

So what are the odds that the story involves Ghetsis fleeing to Hoen and this is a pseudo- ruby/sapphire remake.
I liked it, Bicchan!
My Pokéwalker 1 still works. I don't need a new one... Nintendo should just let me transfer my Pokémon into it.

hmmm maybe something like 10 years in the future?
Maybe something like in Tales of Symphonia 2 or other direct sequels in rpgs?
It will probably just be like the kanto part of Pokemon G/S

I know this poster has been posted already but I like the author's theory about the hint in the movie anniversary poster.

With Meloetta out of the way, Genesect to appear in next year's movie? And 6th gen to come out in the fall of 2013? Yes please!

Escavalier is kind of a fusion.
I don't know if you heard, but it's for DS.
A fusion would be two Pokemon becoming one. Escavalier is a trade evolution. I hate trade evolutions since you have to do trade backs.
you shouldn't be so tough at breaking the news
Yeah, but it takes part of Shelmet.

How are you supposed to play multiplayer if you don't play singleplayer?

As long at they don't plan for B/W 3 or Grey version after this Im happy. As far as Im concerned this is more than Grey version would have been and I think its good to see Pokemon out of its predictable comfort zone. Still bummed about it not being on the 3ds, though I hardly expected it would be.
So anyways, Genesect.. Please let it have an alternate form that looks less like a transformer. I really cringe when I see that abomination.

You have no idea how much I would love that. That or they retcon his design.

Don't get the Genesect hate. Awesome design. Like a robot bug, just as it should be. My only complaint is that it's purple.
