Well, Now You Know What the Pokémon Black and White Starters Look Like

Recommended Videos

A Japanese gaming magazine called CoroCoro has published the first official pictures of the starter Pokémans in Pokémon Black and White. Named (from left to right) Tsutaja, Pokabu, and Mijumaru in Japanese, their names are likely to change as they transition to English, as most Pokémon’s have in the past. It’s also pretty much confirmed at this point that they obey the standard grass/fire/water starter trichotomy that’s existed for time immemorial, though it’ll be interesting to see if any have cool secondary types.

Also from CoroCoro, this is what their vaguely hipsterish trainers will look like:

As for the starters themselves: Meh. Much preferred the starters from this epically fake Black/White lineup that made its way around the ‘Nets in the past. (And a Grass/Dragon starter would be pretty sweet). Thoughts?
