As always, I've uploaded episode pictures of the newest anime episode that aired in Japan.
Click the images above to check out the entry for DP190: Pokémon Doctor Brock!

After the episode finished, a new Pocket Monsters: Best Wishes!  preview was shown. It displayed the starters in action.

• We see that Ash has caught Mijumaru, the water starter, and has faced against the first gym leader in Isshu - Dento! Dento uses Yanappu which sends a Bullet Seed attack at Mijumaru. After protecting itself with the shell in it's hand, Mijumaru attacks with Shell Blade.

• After we're presented Tsutarja, the grass starter, we see it using Vine Whip on Mijumaru and Charm on Ash's Pikachu, which shows that the wild pokémon is a female.

• After we're presented with Pokabu, the fire starter, we see it using two fire attacks.

A few new Black & White images were recently released on the internet.

As you can see, they do not reveal anything new, but we like to keep you updated with every new detail! We expect more information by the end of this week so keep checking back for more!

The Nintendo Channel in Japan has revealed three new commercials. The commercials show loads of new areas in the games, new features, but they don't however include much new information about the games. Features from previous games have been drastically enhanced in Black & White like, when you surf in the games, the speed appears to be enhanced and there are ramps that you jump off of while surfing. The evolution animation has been drastically enhanced and looks amazing. There appears to be "quicksand" in the desert and it seems to drop you somewhere, not much is known about it as of yet.

We also see the protagonist entering Dento's gym, which in my opinion, looks like a restaurant/bar. This is not yet confirmed but the Gym seems to include three different types; Fire, Water and Grass according to the colorful patterns on the ground and also Dento's gym badge being all three of those colors. In addition to that there are two people standing behind Dento with red and blue colored hair. High Link also appears to have a mission where the protagonist turns into a Machop, but no other information was provided about it.

Iris, from the new Anime series; Best Wishes was also shown in the video, but we don't know what her role in the games is. She could probably be a Gym Leader? She appears next to a Team Plasma grunt next to a white building. There was also a scene from the story line where a person was holding a crown and it seemed like he was about to put it on someone. Followed by that scene was a photo of the character "N" while he was a child, he appeared to be next to the fire type Pokémon; Hihidaruma.

Nothing else was shown in the video other than various battle clips of Pokemon we've already seen, amazing battles between Reshiram and Zekrom. Also, it is confirmed in the video that there will be over 100 new Pokémon.

As always, you can find the videos in the "Show more" spoiler below.

As the release date (September 18th) of the upcoming Black & White games nears more and more a low-quality scan of the recently announced Special CoroCoro magazine edition has been leaked on the internet and it reveals a pretty interesting new fact for the battle system.

The new feature that was revealed with this scan, says that you can now combine two or three attacks. This means that you can use two (or three) completely different from each other attacks to form an interesting combo between them, which will vary depending on the used attacks.

An example has been given in the scan with the known attacks used by the starters of the Isshu region: Grass Oath, Fire Oath and Water Oath.

• Using Grass Oath together with Fire Oath will outcome a new attack which covers the field with fire (obviously damaging the opponent pokémon).
• Using Fire Oath together with Water Oath will outcome a status boosting attack (which boosts the secondary effects of your team members), looking like a rainbow.
• Using Water Oath together with Grass Oath will outcome a wet field area which will lower your opponent's speed stats.

The full list of combined attacks and their amount is not yet known, but expect it covered on PokeStation once the games are out and we're able to get our hands on them!
