But if you're choosing a female because your name is unisex then why do you need to come up with a new name for her?

I would assume for similar reasons to what I have. It's a direct sequel to the first Black & White so having a protagonist with the same name as the kid who saved the world two years ago would be odd.

... or maybe I'm the only one who cares about stuff like that. |D;

I myself never cared so much about picking different names. I used my name from Gen II Crystal up to current Gen and I'll still do it regardless. XP

The only exceptions were Pre-Crystal Gen I-II where I used Ash as a name.
And Cartridges where I'm goofing off/not following a norm. E.G.s I erased my R or B version and did a game where I relied solely on glitches, or my Nuzlocke where, etc.

"It's strange really, all these heroes over the the span of X years are all the same/similar name!"

I dunno, maybe I should care!

Between generations I never mind having the same name. Every hero of every gen I've played has had my name. Except for my very first game, Gold, where I just went with 'GOLD'. I just wanted to get into it so I rushed in with the default. xD

But with something like this where it's supposed to be linked I just go "Eh, maybe I should for the sake of continuity that isn't really there." Same reason I'm getting Black 2. I played Black, so I might as well continue it. |P

And I swear, when the next piece of news comes up, I'm going to try and beat FE/EoTM/TB to it.
Guess what, you failed. ^_^

Japanese variety show, Pokemon Smash, is currently airing and is showing some new footage from Black 2 & White 2 which showcases various uses of the Pokemon Keldeo within it. First it revealed that Keldeo is #298 in the Unova Pokedex, with the Pokemon summary screen having slight aesthetic changes to Black & White, and shows Sewaddle in an early route as well as Growlithe in a new route surrounded by various towers with bridges connecting between the raised platforms. A battle is shown against two Sunkern. Magby, Koffing and Magnemite were also showcased and ended with a wireless battle against a Ho-Oh. A video will be uploaded by our friends at Filb shortly.

I actually wonder what Pokemon Special will call these two :I

I will lol if they just name them Black 2 and White 2.

Anyway, names... Since I can no longer get the idea of "Tristan" out of my head, I suppose I'll use that. (thanks Mira :T ) As for the girl...

I wanna name her Molly for some reason. .-. She just looks like a Molly to me.

Yes, this is what I shall name her.

The first view of the Global Link for Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 has been revealed. This view showcases that the Dream World makes a return within these games as well as a rebrand of the Battle Union. It announces that new Pokémon and areas will be in the Dream World, with a reduction on the time cut-off from 24 hours to 20 hours. One of the new areas is called the Cool Hole. It also showcases a whole new promotion saying there is a special feature if you have a Black or White game and a Black 2 or White 2 game registered. This promotion is currently unknown. It also shows that the C-Gear makes a new look return in Black 2 & White 2, with promotions starting as it opens, one of which being related to a Black 2 & White 2 tournament.
Finally, it announced that the Global Trade Station feature of the Global Link, long hinted at last year, finally will appear in this version. You'll be able to check your own history on the GTS and check various statistics. A Report feature is used for the GTS and GBU records
The Global Link will go down on June 5th and will be re-opened with this look on June 21st.
Edit: Downtime also running in all other areas with the aesthetic changes coming at the same time and some of the new features, just without the Black 2 & White 2 compatibility until launch

You're welcome! 8D

The girl looks like a Sissy to me. But I've never been too fond of that name. I named the one in Black Milagro, which is not only a Hispanic female name, but also Spanish for, well, "Miracle." Only game character I've ever named based on one of my Internet aliases.

I suppose I could name this one Delmira. I remember reading a novel with a girl that had that name and the way she acted makes me visualize her similarly to how this chick looks. On top of that, the protagonist of the novel actually nicknamed Delmira "Mira," so I guess taking that into consideration it would be like essentially declaring her the predecessor to the old character.

For whatever reason, I normally put a whole lot of thought into naming. *shrugs* I guess it's mainly because a name is the first thing you get towards an identity of your own, so I try to be careful in choosing them. Even if they're just flat, robotic, silent videogame protagonists. :3

I give all the PC's kinda random names, tho' still fairly common.

Then I named the Gen III male "Ramundo" (pronounced ruh-MUHN-doh), but that was only because "Raimundo" is one character too many for Pokeymanz.

And yeah, I will never get the name Molly out of my head now. I don't even like the name that much, but then again, I don't really like this girl that much. |D

Some new forms announced plus the possible return of some old friends.

The first image from CoroCoro has leaked out and showcases the first new Pokemon forms revealed. This issue's cover showcases that the Pokemon; Tornadus, Thundurus and Landorus each have new forms. It is currently unknown if these forms feature any new types but they do match the silhouettes from Pokemon AR Searcher shown last month. We'll bring more on this as and when it comes
Edit @ 07:58: The original leaker of the magazine states that the magazine showcases Cheren, Bianca, Brock and Giovanni. This information is yet to be confirmed but we'll provide evidence either way as soon as possible

There's another edit:

Serebii
 
Edit @ 08:52: More information is coming from the leaker of the magazine. As before, this is currently unconfirmed while we await scans. First, Pokéwood replaces the musicals and is the movie theatre seen in the trailer. Next, Cheren is said to be a gym leader and finally, the forms of Tornadus, Thundurus and Landorus are exclusively captured in the 3DS game; Pokémon AR Searcher, and then sent to the Black 2 and White 2 games from there


EDIT: And another:

Serebii
 
Edit @ 10:30: Pokémon Smash's episode on May 20th is due to have new Black 2 & White 2 information. Presumably it's the same information coming from CoroCoro, but there should be footage within it

And yet more news, still unconfirmed but this one is the most interesting of all.

The leaker also mentioned that there's a facility where various other leaders from the past games appear including Lance, Volkner, Blue, Misty & Steven.


Rematch with every single gym leader from the past?
Hellz yeah I want this in the game!
