Pokémon Black and White announced.

I know that, but I love a good (or even lame) joke.

I for one love the names. Each past generation has tried to one up the previous generation and try to be the ultimate Pokémon games. We had Gold and Silver with not one, but two super-powerful legendaries. Then we had Ruby and Sapphire with three and they controlled the land, sea, and sky. Then came Diamond and Pearl, which had pokemon that controlled time and space as well as one that's pretty much the God of the Pokemon world. It's been stated several times that the legendaries need to go back to basics. Where we were in Generation 2 was ideal, with the legendaries just being based on local legends. With the titles finally going back to colors, we might see just that.

I really liked , and ! They weren't impossible to capture. Anyone could catch them on their own terms when they wanted to. And they weren't the best Pokemon in the game--you could raise several other Pokemon to be better, especially since you could catch them at much lower levels. was pretty cheap though.
