Black Kyurem and White Kyurem

The first two pages reveal information about the changes to Unova and Black and White Kyurem:


The next two pages reveal information about the new player characters, rival, and Gym Leaders:

  • There are two new player characters; the male is the characters revealed yesterday on the cover, while the female has not been seen before.
  • The character wearing red that was seen yesterday is the new rival; he is said to be a childhood friend of the player.
    • The rival is quoted as saying "From now, I'm going to rage!"
  • The girl with the guitar is Homika; a new Poison-type Gym Leader. Her Gym is said to be a "Live House" (a Japanese term for a music club where live bands play). She will appear in the anime in an episode on June 14.
  • The tanned male in the swimming costume is Shizui; he's a new Water-type Gym Leader.
  • The man in the lab coat is Akuroma. He is researching Pokémon strength. A cut-off portion of the photo mentions he is doing something regarding the latent abilities of Pokémon.


The next two pages reveal information about the new starting city:

  • The new starting city is Hiougi City, located in the south-west of the map.
    • Its main point of interest is its lookout. There is a Pokemon Center and Trainers' School; this is the first time your starting city has included either, as well as the first time the starting location is a city and not a town.
