Black & White starter Pokemon revealed
New region also named
A Japanese kids magazine has revealed the three starter Pokemon for the upcoming Black and White games.
Shown in the image below on the right-hand page, it's clear Nintendo are sticking to the Water/Grass/Fire formula.
The three Pokemon look as strange as you'd expect - some sort of grass dragon, a water beaver and a fire pig with rabbit-like ears.
Their Japanese names are Tsutaaja, Pokabu, and Mijumaru, although these will be changed for the US/UK release.
The name of the region Pokemon fanatics will be traversing has been announced too - it will be called Isshu.
Look out for more Pokemon news as we get it.
