    The changing of seasons is a great idea. Should be a cool little feature.

    Speaking of seasons, it was elaborated on today.

    http://pokebeach.com/2010/08/august-corocoro-scans-leaking-several-new-pokemon

    In the game, the season changes every real-life month. I like that, it'd be a long time to wait for different seasons if it were real-time season changing. That Normal/Grass deer Pokemon changes colors depending on the season, I wonder if any other Pokemon will do this?

    Also, we finally have solid confirmation that there are gyms in this game. Odd that it look so long :p


    And, of course, new Pokemon -

    http://pokebeach.com/2010/08/new-pokemon-revealed-in-bw-demo-buses

    I love the design of the flying squirell, but of course, it's the electric rodent of this gen ;p

    Also, there's a clearer picture of that rock monster thing shown in a battle weeks ago. It, as well as others, should be fully revealed when the rest of the scans leak either today or tomorrow.

    Oh and there's a screen of what's presumably the fire gorrila-daruma doll Pokemon's prevo. And some weird plant thing.

    Every month seems sort of odd. The month the game comes out is the month I'll be playing it. I doubt I'll even see half of the seasons.

    I love the idea of changing seasons - I just hope it's more than a gimmick, you know? I really hope more than one pokemon uses that ability - maybe Castform? That'd be pretty bad ass.

    And I just know there's going to be some kind of "you can only enter this dungeon if it's winter so the water freezes over" area, and I'm cool with it.

    Pretty neat feature. Has there been any news on a pedometer type thingy if it is going to be used on Black and White?
    I'll find you...I promise.

    I'll be pissed if there are specific Pokemon or areas that can only be accessed during certain seasons.
    I have no intention to wait a few months just to explore a single cave or finish my Isshu dex.

    I had no clue about the seasons. This game is shaping up as possibly one of the best games on a Nintendo handheld.

    Confirmation that some areas are exclusive to seasons -

    http://pokebeach.com/2010/08/basurao-revealed-from-black-and-white-demos

    That last screenshot shows the girl walking up a climb via a snowback that's not there in the other seasons. Personally, I love the idea, and if you don't want to wait a month for the change, you can always change your internal DS clock you know.

    Also at that link, a fuzzy picture was taken of a battle screen that reveals a new fish Pokemon. It's hard to make out any features, but it seems good.


    Anyhow -

    http://pokebeach.com/2010/08/august-corocoro-magazine

    Unfortunately, this month's scans didn't reveal any new Pokemon because they were all leaked out beforehand, but it does give some other info.

    First there's specifics on the recently revealed Pokemon, like typing and abilities and such.

    Then, the green-haired waiter (who's also going to be a main character in the 5th gen anime) is the first gym leader. Then the black girl is the second gym leader.

    And there's also info on a few game mechanics, like a special triple battle mode and such.

    A season in game is a month out of game. If anything, you can set the clock on your DS back - it's not that big of a deal.

    Whoo, clear and new scans have finally leaked -

    http://pokebeach.com/2010/08/clear-scans-of-august-corocoro-leaking

    Lots of new info revealed, including specifics on several Pokemon. We FINALLY get official art of the rock behemoth. Now that I see it clear and drawn like that, I think it's a pretty awesome Pokemon. Same thing for the chipmunk's evo.

    The thing that caught me off guard was that there are no berries in Isshu! That's crazy, but I'm glad they had the courage to do that :> Oh, but you can still get berries from the Dream World thing (connecting to the Internet). You just can't find them in the region.

    Also about the Dream World thing; it says that a lot of the Pokemon you get there will have non-standard abilities! That's pretty awesome. They really are vamping up the Internet thing this time. Like, you can also download new things for your Pokedex and C-Gear thing, as well as stuff like new songs to dance to in Pokemon Musical

    Anyhow, there's more there, but I don't have time to give the synopsis, so if you want to see the scans and read it, just go there instead. Also, there are a couple scans that haven't come up yet, so expect a little more soon.

    Meh, I'm not that excited. Pokemon should have stopped after Diamond and Pearl, imo. It feels like I've been buying the same fricken game since Leaf Green.

    The best announcement so far is that TM's don't disappear after usage.
    Why this hadn't been implemented in Gold and Silver baffles me.

    I love the fact that the wild pokemon change depending on the season. I wonder how many pokemon will be in this pokedex, but if it's more than 150, that'd be kick ass. I also like the fact that some pokemon will be receiving new abilities - Vaporeon with hydration isn't anything special (as I Water Absorb is still far more useful, imo), but it's still awesome.

    So there's 8 badges after all. Not to say that I'm disappointed, but I'm glad that they aren't sticking to the same story formula.
