Pokémon Black Version — About this game
Your first Pokémon arrives in a gift box, and a friendly battle in your bedroom soon becomes a journey across Unova. With Cheren and Bianca setting out alongside you, you explore quiet towns, busy cities, bridges and caves while building a team through captures and turn-based battles. Each Gym tests how well you understand move types, switching and the strengths of the partners you have raised. Beyond the Badge challenge, encounters with N and Team Plasma question the relationship between people and Pokémon and lead the story toward Unova’s legendary dragons. Changing seasons alter the look of the region and affect parts of its exploration. Animated battle sprites give your growing team character, while Pokémon Centers and the Pokédex provide familiar places to recover and record your discoveries. Black features Reshiram as its story dragon and Black City as a distinctive area reached later in the adventure. Version-specific encounters give its Pokédex and team-building options a different selection from White.
