August’s English Set: ‘Dragons Exalted’
Just in time for my B-Day !! My B-Day is Augest 15th !!!!!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
August's English set will be named Dragons Exalted and will feature Giratina, Rayquaza, Gyarados, and Terrakion on its booster packs. This will be the first English set to feature the new Dragon-type, which was first introduced in Japan this past January in the Dragon Selection mini-set. Along with the aforementioned mini-set, Dragons Exalted will be comprised of cards from BW5 Dragon Blade / Dragon Blast. The set will be released in America on Augest 15th, with prereleases taking place the weekends of August 4th and 11th. Thanks goes to PokeCollection for the news!
Starting June 16th, McDonalds Happy Meals will come with a Pokemon toy and a reprinted TCG card. The six toys are Pikachu, Servine, Pignite, Dewott, Woobat, and Axew while the confirmed cards thus far are Servine, Pignite, Dewott, Scraggy, Axew, and Dwebble. There could be up to 12 cards, but only nine are confirmed so far - the others will probably be Pokemon from Ash and crew's team. Like the first U.S. McDonalds promotion, which took place last June, the cards will probably be printed on special holofoil paper. Will this be a new yearly trend at McDonalds?
Fall Tins to Feature Mewtwo-EX, Darkrai-EX, and Rayquaza-EX
The fall 2012 tins will feature promos of Mewtwo-EX, Darkrai-EX, and the upcoming Rayquaza-EX, all with new artwork. Considering that all three of these cards are (or will be) extremely popular, this will make it much easier to obtain them for deck use and should also lower their secondary market prices. The tins will be released in mid-September.

What’s Coming in ‘Best Wishes Season 2′
Famitsu.com has revealed a new synopsis for Best Wishes Season 2 which Gin has translated as follows. Ash, Iris, and Cilan will head with Champion Cynthia to Eastern Unova where Pokemon from past generations are present. They encounter Ash's past traveling companion Dawn and her Piplup and even the Legendary Pokemon Meloetta, who becomes Ash's friend and begins to journey with him. Giovanni will lead Team Rocket in their biggest plot in history, which as we already know involves Meloetta (and possibly the Sacred Beast Formes of Thundurus, Landorus, and Tornadus, or they at least somehow get involved, going by their presence in the show's poster). Ash is also going to have a new rival.
Caitlin from Platinum's Battle Frontier and Black and White's Elite Four will make an appearance, joining Cynthia in the "World Tournament Junior Cup," which seems to be inspired by the new "World Tournament" feature in Black 2 and White 2. The winner of the tournament gets to battle Alder. Are we going to see some epic Elite Four battles here? Let's hope so!
As posted in CoroCoro, the mecha Tyranitar from PokeWood will make an appearance in the show on June 7th battling a Golurk, as you can see in the screenshots below. Homika, the new Poison-type Gym Leader, is set to make an appearance in June as well.

The official Pokemon YouTube channel has also uploaded a new trailer for what appears to be an anime special, but it is set to private right now; however, thanks to known YouTube hacks, we were able to grab its preview thumbnails! The first one shows three new Team Plasma members who own a Klinklang, Seviper, and Metagross, the second one shows the new B2W2 male character, his rival, and their Pokemon the back of Bianca with her new clothing and hairstyle, and the third shows a Lucario (Cynthia's?) standing on some sort of spikes. Will these new Team Plasma members make an appearance in the games?
Clear ‘Black 2′ and ‘White 2′ Screenshots
The official Japanese Pokemon website has released clear images of the screenshots and artwork that were in CoroCoro magazine. Translations of the dialogue and information are below thanks to Gin!
Meeting Bianca, Cheren, Alder, and a Plasma Sage
Bianca says that she's here on behalf of Professor Juniper and that she remembers her first time on a route. Cheren says to Bianca, "It's been two years." To the player, he says, "This is my first Pokemon battle as a Gym Leader!" Alder asks you to come with him - he wants to share his message of walking step-in-step with Pokemon. The Sage says, "N is a person who's gone beyond just understanding the hearts of Pokemon." We can see the two Team Plasma females from the opening of Black and White, Anthea and Concordia, watching from afar in the same screenshot.
PokeWood
PokeWood (Pokemon+Hollywood) is a new feature to create movies - you pick a scenario (such as battling a mecha Tyranitar) and then record those battles to make the movie (including one step where you're on a green screen stage). You get to pick from an assortment of pre-programmed lines for your film. You are even encouraged to choose lines that don't match up with your movie to create gag films. The better your movie, the more points you'll get and the more popular it will be in-game.
Brycen, the Ice-type Gym Leader from Black and White, stars in PokeWood films. The father of Homika, the new Poison-type Gym Leader with the guitar, wants to be in movies too and battles Brycen in one of the screenshots.
World Tournament
You get to battle previous Gym Leaders and Elite Four members, whom you download through Wi-Fi (apparently the characters themselves and their teams). You can participate in either single or double battles against them.

The English box art for Black 2 and White 2 was also revealed, as you can see below. The press release revealed that Hiougi City, the city where the games start, will be localized to Aspertia City

CoroCoro Scans !!! New Kami Forms , New Gym Leader , New Anime and more !!!
Images from the newest Corocoro have started surfacing. This issue seems to be jam packed and loaded with new Pokemon information. The biggest news seems to be that the Kami Trio have new formes in Black 2 and White 2. The formes that we've already seen are known as their Incarnation Formes. The new formes that have been revealed are their Sacred Beast Formes. Apparently, they all have the same types no matter the forme they are in. I'll go over a list of release from each pages of the scans.
1st Scan
Cheren is now a Normal-type Gym Leader, replacing Lenora and giving out the Basic Badge. He is the first Gym Leader while Homika, the Poison-type Gym Leader with the guitar, is the second. (Some of this info comes from the 6th scan.)
Bianca gives you your Starter Pokemon on behalf of Professor Juniper. She is now Juniper's assistant.
N has disappeared and nobody knows where he is, including Team Plasma. Team Plasma and the Sages will still be in the game, though in what capacity we do not know yet.
Alder appears at the beginning of the game and asks you to come with him.
2nd Scan
PokeWood (Pokemon+Hollywood) will apparently involve filming a movie: you pick a scenario, then fight in several Pokemon battles. Perhaps battling against the mecha Tyranitar is how you film part of your movie.
Brycen, the Ice-type Gym Leader, has starred in PokeWood movies before.
PokeWood will also be featured in the anime on June 7th - we see a screenshot of the mecha Tyranitar battling a Golurk. I bet this will be Luke's evolved Golett since we've seen him making movies in various episodes of the show. Guess they were foreshadowing this for a while without us knowing!
3rd Scan
The old designs of the Cloud Trio will now be referred to as their "Incarnation Formes" while the new designs will be called their "Sacred Beast Formes."
All three of the Pokemon keep their same types in their new formes, but their stats are different. Tornadus' new forme focuses on Defense, Special Defense, and Speed, Thundurus' focuses on Special Attack, and Landorus' focuses on Attack.
(This isn't stated in the magazine.) Fan speculation on our forums is that the three new formes are inspired by Aztec legend. Tornadus is Huitzilopochtli, who after it died became a green and purple hummingbird, Thundurus is Quetzalcoatl, who after it died became a serpent, and Landorus is Tezcatlipoca / Tepeyollotl, a jaguar. In the Pokemon AR Searcher screenshot on the left side of the 3rd scan and in the anime poster on the right side of the 7th scan, you can see each of them resembling those animals (a bird, a snake, and a jaguar).
Professor Burnett will be the name of the professor in the Pokemon AR Searcher game.
4th Scan
As stated yesterday, the "World Tournament" feature allows you to battle past Gym Leaders and Elite Four Champions.
So far, Cynthia, Green (Gary), Brock, Misty, Lt. Surge, Erika, Janine, Blaine, Giovanni, Volkner, Steven Stone, and Lance are confirmed participants.
5th / 6th Scan
As we knew already, Meloetta will be the Pokemon you can download at the movie theaters when you go to see Kyurem vs. the Sacred Swordsman - Keldeo. It is at Level 15, knows Quick Attack, Confusion, and Round, and comes holding a PP Max.
7th Scan
The anime will be renamed Best Wishes Season 2 starting June 21st. There will be an arc featuring the new Sacred Beast formes as well as the return of Dawn, Cynthia, and Pokemon from past generations! Giovanni will return as well and Team Rocket will have a new plan involving Meloetta.
