Pokemon Sunday revealed some new stuff today, such as a gym leader, two new characters, one seen in what appears to be the game's intro, and another, which I am assuming is the rival character until official info on said characters are released, as well as the release date, September 18th.

Pocket Monster... Awaken.
This line totally intrigued me.
I wonder if it has anything to do with the game plot (or I'm just overthinking this... )...

Again from Serebii.net.
Also, big Isshu region pic.

Ok, using this pic as reference... (1 is at the extreme top left of the pic, above the area marked 5)

Thirteen mysteries from the full map of the Isshu Region!

The new adventure is to take place in the Isshu Region. Here is the announcement of the full map!! It is not an independent island like Hoenn or Sinnoh, but it is thought to be a part of a continent somewhere. There are places here and there with clouds covering them; it appears that there are further mysteries hidden below the clouds. The details of the map are completely unknown, but let's check some points of interest based on the thus-far revealed screen shots.

1) A blast furnace? There is something like melted iron.
A building with the unique shape of a bee's nest. It looks like there is a lava-like material here and there... Also, if you look at the full map, there is a place where you can see what appears to be something like red lava! It's man-made, so maybe it's a type of blast furnace for melting iron.

2) A town at the mouth of a river with a drawbridge.
There are many bridges around the Isshu Region which is abundant with rivers. The red drawbridge in the picture also stands out pretty well on the map. At the base of the bridge is something that resembles a crane and also a lighthouse, so this place could be a port city.

3) A theme park-type facility.
There is a facility that looks to be a theme park with a Ferris Wheel?

4) A sand storm raging in a desert?
A place like a desert with blowing sand. It's hard to see far due to the sand, but there appear to be trainers here and there. If you look a little below center of the map, there is a vast desert. Maybe this could be it. There appears to be a ghost town buried in sand on the map, could this also be a place in the adventure!?

5) An airfield?
There is a runway on the left side of the map!? Could it be an airfield? Maybe you can get on an airplane and enjoy an adventure in the sky. Also, directly above that is a building that looks like a tower. The tower has a spiral staircase and gives off an old-fashioned feeling.

6) Two windmills?
Around where the land looks like a staircase, there are two buildings with　the same shape. If you look good at them, there are propeller-like things attached to them making them like windmills. A very relaxed scenery, could they be generating power?

7) Two-tone color town.
A little above the center of the map is a little strange place. Looking at it, the two-tone color town is separated into left as brown and right as light blue. You can also see a big majestic building in the center... What could this place be?

8 ) Ancient ruins?! There is a building that could be some ancient ruins on the place that looks like a rock mountain at the farthest top of the center of the map. On the staircase shaped rock mountain you can see several cave-like holes. Maybe the inside is a complicated maze.

9) What's in the center?
There is a lake at the center of the map with a big island at the center of it. If you look really closely you can see that the outsides of this island is jagged and looks like it's man-made. At the center we can see something in the shape of a spiral, but what could it be...? It's a place full of mysteries.

10) An abandoned factory?
It's hard to see it on the map, but if you look reaaally closely you can see that the walls and ceilings are broken. Last month there was a picture of an abandoned factory that was revealed, could this be it? What sort of Pokemon could be here?

11) The beginning town?
The small town that can be seen in the bottom right of the map. It's as if we've seen this blue roof and the road going around it somewhere before... That's right, it was one of the game pictures during the first announcement! Let's predict that this is the starting point of the adventure and the house with the blue roof is the main character's house!!

12) Sky Arrow Bridge?
"Sky Arrow Bridge" is no doubt the giant bridge that stretches to the city thought to be Hiun City. It seems like this picture is looking towards Hiun City from the eastern opposite bank.

13) The giant city, Hiun City
Hiun City is lined with skyscrapers. Even when looking at the full map, the city's grand appearance stands out. However, directly above this giant city is a ghost town and a vast desert. The contrast is quite interesting.

Also, a new video is included in a DVD promoting the Zoroark movie.

Well, this is definately expected; for the next couple of seasons we'll never see Dawn (and maybe Brock for SURE this time, and like that's happened before, we might see May as a quick cameo during the leauge saga, like they did previously with Misty) again.

Pokémon Black & White - Oha Suta Reveal

Japanese variety show Oha Suta has shown a new trailer for Pokémon Black & White which showed a video containing a lot of new Pokémon. We'll provide pictures shortly.
First we have Ononokusu (オノノクス), the mantis like Pokémon
Next is Doryuuzu (ドリュウズ) a mole with a giant claw on its tail
Next is Desukan (デスカーン), the sarcophagus-esque Pokémon with ghostly arms
Then Denchura (デンチュラ )is shown, which appears to be a Tarantula
Finally is Moguryu (モグリュー), the baby mole Pokémon seen in the below screenshot.

It appears that Doryuuzu may be Moguryu's evolution. It also revealed a Grass-type attack called Grass Mixer (グラスミキサー) and one called Drill Liner (ドリルライナー). We also know of a new are called White High-Link (ホワイトのハイリンク) which has your trainer transform into what may be a multiplayer avatar and the link up with the internet we mentioned earlier this month is called the Pokémon Global Link. Its functions are still unknown

It also confirms that there are now Three on Three battles. There is also a brand new option in the battle menu in what appeared to be a trainer battle. Along with Fight, Run & Pokémon and Shooter. It is unknown what Shooter is for or what use it has. These Pokémon have been added to the new Pokémon section with the little details we know.
