Pokémon Black & White 2 land later this year with all the gotta-catch-'em-all action you could want, but if you fancy taking a break from animal slavery you can always try your hand at animal acting with the game's new "Pokéwood" mode.
The addition lets you create miniature movies using your Pokémon, picking dialogue and scenarios before hitting record. Hopefully you'll be able to share these movies with friends somehow, but no word on that just yet.
New screenshots also reveal you'll be able to face off against famous trainers including Team Rocket mastermind Giovanni in the World Tournament mode, with other characters made available through Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.
Pokémon Black and White 2 reach Japan in five weeks, with western releases on the cards for later this year.

This is a little of a weird idea, if i had to guess this feature will be 3ds only. dsi just can't record videos as far as i know so it pretty has to be 3ds only(ds lite and ds phat don't even have camera so they won't work either)
@Travis1984 I think it refers to recording video in-game, like the replays in other Pokémon games
I think I read that it was more of a replacement of the Pokemon Musical from Black and White. Maybe wrong though!
What a terribly cheap gimmick. Seriously Pokemon if you're ganna innovate dont make it through features like this.
well that's... something.
The stuff about fighting the old gym leaders is cool though.
@Geonjaha Pokemon doesn't innovate though
Pretty useless.
This looks sick
I just got into Pokemon (yes I know, took me long enough...) and bought Diamond the other day. I LOVE IT...so far lol My only beef with Black 2 and White 2 is the fact that it's, for whatever reason, NOT on 3DS. Come on! DS is old, make a 3DS Pokemon game!!!! (and not rumble....)
"famous trainers" better not include that cow from Goldenrod City. Or her Miltank.
BA-ZING!
@RevolverLink Aw, I <3 Whitney.
That said, the list of the old Gym Leaders to appear has already been revealed (I won't post it for spoilery reasons) and you don't have anything to worry about.
Sounds exciting to me. I can't wait to get these games.
...Go ahead and flame me, I don't care. I love Pokemon, I will NEVER stop playing, but I'm going to say it anyway.
This is stupid. It may just be safe to say that Black and White will remain the best, unsurpassed by Black 2 and White 2.
You get to face a lot more than Giovanni at the World Tournament. Other articles have mentioned Brock, Misty, and Blue (aka Gary).
@Geonjaha
The video thing sounds like something with potential that Nintendo is just going to lazily slap in for extra features.
The World Tournament trainers sound great... for all of five minutes. I mean, I'd love to battle those trainers again, but after that, then what? Seems like
Pokéwood. AHAHAHA
Looking foward to battling those gym leaders!
Some people seem to misunderstand the concept, you won't be "recording movies" in the "lol I can record moviez and edits them" sense, it will just be the new "poke contest" of this game mixed with some "choose your own adventure" thing.
To be honest it's a nice idea, and it will be an interesting activity to do.
Awesome! Record your Pokemon, the trainer is a SPY!
I can't wait to make a Black and White video just like Michael Jackson!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H81OlYWr9do It sounds awesome, extracted from the game trailer without the Japanese voices on it.
@NTELLIGENTMAN I see what you did there. very clever sir.
