A trailer for the next Pokémon movie attached to the latest episode of the Diamond & Pearl anime has revealed the title for the next season. Pocket Monsters: Best Wishes is the confirmed title for the next generation of Pokémon anime.
Character silhouettes were also shown. These were leaked onto the internet on the 27 July, 2010. They confirm that there is a new female protagonist joining Ash. Her name is posted below the art, but it is not printed clearly and although it appears to read Iris (Japanese: アイリス), this cannot be confirmed yet. Team Rocket is also shown, as are some new Pokémon and a man with a mustache whose role is not yet known. Brock and Dawn are not pictured; this supports a blog entry made by an anime staff member earlier.
The two version mascots of Pokémon Black and White are shown in promotional material for the anime, suggesting that like Dialga and Palkia before them, the legendary Pokémon Reshiram and Zekrom will have a role in the overarching plot of the anime.
