‘Black’ and ‘White’ Release Date Revealed on ‘Pokemon Sunday’

Reporting live from Japan! Pokemon Sunday just revealed two seconds ago that Black and White‘s release date is set for September 18th in Japan! Twelve more weeks until the fifth generation!

Update (5:15 PM): Our friends at Filb.de have posted a video of the announcement. I have taken four screenshots and posted them below. We apparently see three new characters: a blond guy in the first and third screenshots, a possible villain in the second screenshot, and a woman named Cheren in the fourth screenshot. Click the thumbnails below for larger images. Could the woman be a Gym Leader? Could the second guy be a villain disguising himself as the character in the first and third screenshots? We’ll find out soon!

Update #2 (5:30 PM): The character in the third screenshot says “I will be better than the champion.” Could he be the rival?
