More clearer scans from the recently leaked CoroCoro have been revealed on the 2ch boards. Along with this, a wealth of information is now made available on the upcoming Pokémon Black and White Versions including new characters, Pokémon evolutions and game features.

The first two pages of the scans reveal information on the beginning of the game:

  • Professor Araragi apparently gives the player the Isshu starter Pokémon to begin their Pokémon journey and asks to share them with the player's two childhood friends Belle and Cheren.
  • Belle is described as a spontaneous person who goes on Pokémon journey against the wishes of her father. She is known to be unreliable at times.
  • Cheren is described as being intelligent and trustworthy, and he wishes to become the Isshu champion. He tends to give advice to the player on their journey.

The 4th and 5th pages talk about another character, N:

  • The routes seem to have been reset, as the game begins on Route 1.
  • N, is seen as an antagonist. He continuously challenges the player in order to confirm his ideas of justice. He calls Pokémon "Friends", but one of the screen shots shows him saying that he wants to split humans and Pokémon and divide them so it's black and white world. He has the unique idea to set Pokémon free from people. He's looking for the power to bring his idea to reality.

The 6th and 7th pages have details on triple battling:

  • The triple battles are set up so that the middle Pokémon is able to target all 3 Pokémon, while the ones on the sides can only target their opposite sides. Pokémon positions are able to be switched on the bottom screen with a button. It is said that if a Pokémon in the middle attacks, there will be some kind of attack boost.
  • There is a new ability called Telepathy (テレパシー), which prevents damage to team-mates (with the ability) when an attack that would normally hit them is used.
  • A currently unnamed attack similar in function to the ability, which prevents damage to all team-mates.

The 8th and 9th pages details on the differences in the versions of the games:

  • Rankurusu and Gochiruzeru are said to be Version exclusives, though it isn't clear which game each is in.
  • Black City is exclusive to Pokémon White, while White Forest is exclusive to Pokémon Black
  • The same cities vary in appearance in each game.

The 10th and 11th pages have more details on the new Pokémon:

The 12th and 13th pages talk about some game features:

  • Musharna is the evolution of Munna. Both Munna and Musharna give off some kind of Dream Smoke, which is described to hold the dreams of Pokémon.
  • By obtaining Dream Smoke, the player is able to use Game Sync to upload their Black and White save file to the Internet.
  • Professor Araragi's friend Makomo gives the player the C Gear, after the player does something for her.
  • High Link is a building location in Isshu in which the player is able to connect with other players and is able to play together with them.

The 14th and 15th pages continues on about more game features:

  • The DS's infrared is now being utilized for quick battles (up to 4 players) and trades from the player's party or PC Box. Along with this, friend codes can also be sent this way.
  • A new feature called Passing By (which is apart of the C gear) allows players to instantaneously connect with nearby players.
  • Another new feature called Feeling Check checks the compatibility between players. A game is shown where players must keep the same rhythm.
  • Live Caster is a feature where players are able to video chat which includes a pen and stamp to allow editing. This feature is also used by in-game characters from time to time.

The 16th and 17th and 18th pages:

  • Pokémon Global Link is the service that allows the uploading of Black and White save files and has 2 different modes. One mode allows the player's Pokémon to play in a dream, while the other is to battle online. Access to the Global Link is gained by obtaining Musharna, the evolution of Munna.
  • There is some kind of 'Dream World' where Pokémon have their own rooms to play in, and are able to play mini-games with other Pokémon. If a Pokémon is befriended in the dream world, it is able to be taken back to the player's game. Hence, this allows Pokémon not native to the Isshu region to be obtained. To send a Pokémon (the Pokémon must be placed in in the PC box) to the world of dreams, the Game Sync feature that is apart of the C gear, is used.
  • An event that will be held from August 7 to August 31st on the Pokémon Daisuki Club site for an Eeveelution that will be encountered in a dream. It is assumed that this Eeveelution can be sent to Black and White, once they are released.
