An All-New World Filled with All-New Pokémon
--------------------------------------------
Pokémon Black Version features the same handheld RPG and
Adventure gameplay that has consistently thrilled Nintendo DS
players, both young and more experienced, but it also introduces
players to the all-new Unova region. Brought to life with
improved graphics, Unova is a mix of urban and natural landscapes
in which players are just as likely to encounter skyscrapers and
bridges, as they are to walk alongside ains and seascapes.
It is of course also filled with a potent blend of all-new
Pokémon, including the Legendary Vast White Pokémon Reshiram and
the Deep Black Pokémon Zekrom. Stepping into the role of either a
male or female Trainer, players further have their choice of
their first Pokémon, who will serve as the first of many Pokémon
companions in their travels through Unova, as they attempt to
capture every wild Pokémon variety available and test their
skills against other Trainers in turn-based battles.
Experience Legendary Pokémon
----------------------------
Both of the Legendary Pokémon Reshiram and Zekrom appear in
Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version, but each can
only be caught in their respective versions. The Legendary
Pokémon Reshiram appears on the cover of Pokémon Black Version
and the Legendary Pokémon Zekrom is seen on the cover of Pokémon
White Version. See their types, abilities and profiles below.

Your Choice of Starter Pokémon
------------------------------
Pokémon Black Version starts you off on your new Pokémon
adventure with a trusty Pokémon companion. Choose the Pokémon you
like the most - it will be with you through thick and thin as you
explore the Unova region. The three starter Pokémon all have
different types. Your knowledge of the strengths and weaknesses
of these types will be put to the test early and often.

Snivy is a Grass-type Pokémon, which means it has an advantage
in battles against Water-type and Ground-type Pokémon. As a
Fire-type Pokémon, Tepig is strong in battles against Grass-type
and Ice-type Pokémon. Oshawatt is a Water-type Pokémon, so it is
super effective against Fire-type Pokémon in battle.
