    None for Hoenn, huh.


    That's because Hoenn is made of fail.

    The first two titles were apparently shown in a Japanese TV magazine and are,

    BW001 - To the Isshu Region! Zekrom's Shadow!!
    BW002 - Iris and Kibago!

    Apparently in the first episode Pikachu is unable to use its electric moves because of Zekrom's shadow, so Ash goes to Professor Araragi's lab. I'm not 100% sure about these, but Newtype leaks should happen today or tomorrow to confirm



    Zekrom already!?


    Sounds rather like any given region that Ash has gone to on his own. It's getting rather dull, can't they think of some other sort of peril than something's wrong with Pikachu?

    But yeah, Zekrom's not too surprising, it follows the trend of legendaries. It's interesting though, how it's actually going to immediately impact the plot apparently. So does that mean Reshiram's shadow would depower fire types? And why?

    A though occurs; Iris doesn't look like the type to own a bike...

    Something always happens to Pikachu when in a new region except for Johto.


    Kanto: Attack by a flock of Spearow


    Hoenn: Overloaded with electricity by Team Rocket


    Sinnoh: Caught by Team Rocket and almost caught by Dawn


    Isshu: Electric moves don't work due to Zekrom's shadow

    Already calling it, Pikachu's gonna recover his electric attacks eventuallly (like late in the episode) give a huge Thunderbolt and that's what will fry Iris' bike. 200,000 pokedollars say so.

    I bet 999,999 Pokedollars(which is the maximum) that this will be the reason for Pikchu's level resetting in Isshu, where it gets owned by Shooti's Tsutarja.

    Am I the only one who thinks that Shooti being a photographer might hint at a new Pokemon Snap game? Or maybe its just wishful thinking.

    First episode summary is up now, Shooti debuts in BW001. Also, that man that appeared with Ash, Iris, and Team Rocket on that beta art that leaked a couple months ago is apparently the owner of the Battle Club in BW004.

    Shooti has Tsutarja. And the preview even makes him act like Paul. Oh boy.

    Nah, Dento's more like both of them.



    Dento has a dream other than being a trainer, like Brock, only instead of being the rather unheard at the time and illogical Breeder it's the unheard and illogical Wine Seller/Pokemon Companionship Rater, and he gets to leave because he has siblings who work at the gym decently enough. Kinda sorta like Misty, maybe.

    Surprised no one mentioned it, but Delia is appearing in BW001....although I guess it is expected. According so a summary, Delia might be going with Isshu for a temporary vacation.

    So they decide to take out the last original series traveling character and to make it seem like a renewed version of Kanto... fast paced, completely new traveling characters..... yet they use the same formula from Kanto....(Dento=Brock/Misty) Laaaaaaaaaaame.
