Board 8 > Lots of BW2 rumors.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Warning: May be completely false, I don't know.

Battle Subway area replaced with a Battle Frontier
Battle Frontier areas include: Battle Hall, Battle Subway, Battle Contest, Battle Factory
Battle Contest is an area focused on displaying battle skills more than fighting
Professor Ichii (species of Oak in Japanese) replaces Professor Juniper
These Pokemon will now appear in Unova: Geodude, Scyther, Machop, Hoppip, Tyrogue, Togepi, Corsola, Cacnea, Trapinch, Croagunk, Starly
New Gym Leader: Sutebia (Stevia)


* The rumored New Pokemon advertised in Movie 15 Merchandise, and the silhouette seen in the AR Reader, is named Toridii (トリディー), with its name written out as ToriD in the magazine in English. It’s a Red and Blue bird-like Pokemon composed of prism-like crystal wings, and is said to be a Dimension Pokemon. The “head” on the silhouette is actually it’s crest, which is a red-and-blue spiral pompadour basically. Electric/Flying, despite its color-scheme.
* ToriD has a cameo appearance in the Meloetta Short, and is apparently the Pokemon responsible for all the old cameo Pokemon appearing…he brings them all together. Players who bring their 3Ds to the movie not only obtain the Giveaway Pokemon Meloetta, but will also be sent a special 3D video focusing on ToriD through SpotPass, said to reveal its secrets.
* There is a special sidequest in Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 involving ToriD and featuring 3D effects, unlocked only when playing the game on a 3Ds system (think the Advanced Shop in the Zelda Oracle games) and by finding ToriD in the AR Searcher. Doing so is required to trade the Pokemon in AR Searcher to Black 2 and White 2.
————
* Homika’s Gym features a rhythm-based mini-game, and it confirms Shizui’s Gym is the one with the lillypads. Homika is confirmed to use Koffing in-game, and Shizui has a Mantine.
* New Grass-type Gym Leader revealed, name is Chisa (チサ). He’s an older guy with wicked sideburns that resemble the Libra Scales, and he’s a prosecutor apparently, involved in a case against the Six Sages from BW. Gym is a courtroom involving judging type match-ups. His main Pokemon seems to be Ferrothorn.
* Old Gym Leaders are returning alongside new ones, shows Chilli, Burgh, and Iris with updated looks. Chilli now is wearing a greaser outfit and has established his own Gym as the three brothers apparently split up. What happened to Cilan and Cress, the magazine asks. Iris is older and more mature looking, fusing her pigtails into one big pony-tail that resembles wings of a dragon. The impression is that she is the Gym Leader in both versions now. Burgh has a top-hat and cane now, Willly Wonka is one way I saw him described, and has opened up an art gallery in Nacrene. Is he now the Gym Leader there? Magazine also shows art of Houndoom, Altaria, and Vespiquen around them, so that’s probably their new Pokemon.

No it wasn't. You've got to keep some good features back for the special version. It's sound strategy, and I think that's what they've done since they've introduced gym rematches anyway - they're in Emerald, Plat and B2/W2 but not in R/S, D/P or B/W.

--
http://i.imgur.com/j5f3K.gif

Well they could've done something like allowing gym rematches in BW1 and then branching out to something even better in BW2, like previous gym leaders/E4/champions.

And, if all the unconfirmed info on Serebii right now is true, that seems to be happening anyway.

Scans are up at Serebii.

- Alder, Bianca, and Cheren are all back. Bianca gives you your starter Pokemon, and Cheren is a Normal-type gym leader. Also, looks like Cheren gave Bianca his glasses. No one has any idea where N is.

- New Professor for the AR Searcher app is called Professor Burnett.

- The Kami trio's old appearance is their Incarnation Forme. Their new looks is called their Sacred Beast Forme. They also look so much better and original.

- Pokewood (pun on Hollywood) replaces the Pokemon Musical.

- Brycen is Homika's father.

- We can battle old gym leaders / champions in the Pokemon World Tournament. They don't seem to have updated looks, which is a shame.

--

I really hope that battle screenshot with Cheren isn't the actual gym battle. Unless he's the first gym leader, using a Patrat is just sad. Even if he is the first gym leader, it's still sad.

I bet Marshal is going to be the champion. I hope he's not, but he was mentioned as being Alder's apprentice in BW, so if the champion isn't Alder or Cheren (I kind of expected it to be the latter), Marshal makes the most sense unless they bring in a new character.

Shouldn't the champion be the main dude from B/W?

It technically should, but it won't be, due to the fact that the player has the option to pick his gender.

If you could only play as one gender, like back in R/B/G/Y with Red, then it could be done.

they can just like... default to male. Or base it off the gender of the character you choose in 2.

Let's say you played White as the male character, so if you want the sequel to that game, you need White 2.

If you want the male character from White to be the champion, you have to play as the male character in White 2.
But what happens if you choose to play as the female character in W2? Then Hilda will be the champion, but if you played as Hilbert in White, she shouldn't even exist!

Something like that.

--

I fully expect the BW protagonist to show up anyways. He/She/Thon WAS the chosen dragon tamer, or whatever.

I guess, but it seems like leaving out this one would leave a big old hole in the plot. None of the other main characters have had real reasons to show up in other games.
