[DrP]

Here's the new stuff from the latest CoroCoro Scans

Here's the breakdown:

Alder shows up early in the game and wants you to follow him.

Cheren is now the Normal-type Gym Leader

As a favor to Professor Juniper, Bianca gives you your starter Pokemon.

No one knows N's location.

Professor Burnett is new to the game, researching AR Searchers.

Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus: Old Forms are called Incarnation Forme, New forms are called Sacred Beast Forme. These forms are # 198, 199, and 200 in the Pokedex, and their types remain the same.

Sacred Beast Formes are obtained by capturing the Pokemon in the Pokemon AR Searcher and sending them to Black/White 2.

Tornadus' Sacred Beast Form focuses on Defense, Speed, and Special Defense.

Thundurus' Sacred Beast Form has increased Special Attack.

Landorus' Sacred Beast Form has increased Attack.

Pokewood: New area where you can choose a scenario and make a movie, various battles appear; Replacing Musicals; Mecha Tyranitar is involved; Icirrus City Gym Leader Brycen has confrontation with Homika's father, who wants to be a movie star.

Meloetta: Special giveaway Pokemon for upcoming movie; Level 15; Form Change occurs in Castelia City; Moves are Quick Attack, Confusion, and Round; Hold item is a PP Max.

Pokemon World Tournament allows you to battle many of the old Gym Leaders and Champions, including Lance, Volkner, Blue, Misty, Steven, Janine, and Blaine.

At last, the Kanto Champion battle music makes sense

Heheheheh, that track has always, 'till now, been an enigma.

I heard the cheren is the first gym leader. There are also 2 new gym leaders: a poison type and a water type guy

[Cobraroll]

If you look closely at the Water gym leader, you'll notice a soldid design fail.



No, I'm not talking about the tan lines. Notice that his goggles are too small to cover his eyes.

Also, rumours are abound concerning the new formes of Tornadus, Landorus and Thundurus. Some fans have noted that the original formes are all male, these could be female counterparts.
Others again point to Aztec mythology, where there are gods who could change from their human forms into a snake, a tiger and a green hummingbird (you might know the snake as Quetzalcoatl).

Maybe they're not meant to be used. Maybe they were given to him by his childhood swimming teacher who died and he wears it to honour them. Who are we to judge?

The epicness!  I can't handle it!

[Funktastic~!]

Everything about these games just seem amazing.  I can't wait to use the Pokemon World Tournament.  It seems like it'll be crazy fun.

How in the world will Game Freak top these games?

[Nebbles]

Good question! These games are loaded to the brim with awesome things.

Ruby and Sapphire remakes.  Please.

An enigma? Not really. The theme was used in the 2011 Pokémon Worlds Championships finals. Apparently they made it just for that, but it'd be awesome if we could hear it in the next games.

[DonValentino]

Ruby and Sapphire remakes.  Please.

Now for 3DS and battle style and gameplay like Colosseum. Imagine, all cities and characters in 3d models. That'd be so awesome.

[fingerz]

Agreed! Looking forward to these games and hopefully a remake of RSE for the 3DS.
