Next is Pokedex 3D Pro set for release in Japan on July 14. A European release date has been confirmed for later in the year. This game will also be available for release on the 3DS eShop and will have Unova and Non-Unova Pokemon and have an Augmented Reality feature. In addition, it also has the new Kyruem Forms. It will be for 1500 Yen and replace the current version of Pokedex 3D.

Augmented Reality: Black Kyruem

Augmented Reality: White Kyruem

Finally, a new BW2 trailer has been released and features gameplay.

Possible Japan Release Date for Black 2 and White 2

A Japanese retailer recently updated their listings for BW2 so it now includes a release date. We have known the games are set to be released in Japan in the summer. The games' potential release date for Japan is June 23, 2012. Unlike the western retailers, the Japanese ones that rarely put a suspected release date out, so the chances are that the date is correct. Also, the Japanese Keldeo distribution starts on the same date. This could mean further confirmation of this date. Details and confirmation coming soon.

Pokemon + Nobunaga's Ambition: Coverage Day 2

Thanks to Serebii.net

• Once you have defeated the Pointy Rock, Poison Fang and Shadow Nations, three more nations are unlocked. The Matama Nation (Matama マタマ), the Fukushi Nation (Fukushi フクシ) and the Blizzard Nation (Fubuki フブキ)
• In addition to this, the password to obtain Audino has been revealed to be セ６ゼチ８６ヤヒ and to obtain Pikachu: メキト７ア８オト
• Small interesting note. The Ranse region is shaped like the Pokémon Arceus
• Once you have beaten the Matama Nation, Fukushi Nation and Blizzard nation, the final 17th nation appears, the Ryu Nation, led by Nobunaga
• After you have defeated Nobunaga, a new area opens up in Dragon Nation which contains the legendary Pokémon: Arceus
•  Once Arceus has been befriended, you need to defeat Nobunaga again, but this time he uses his Rayquaza. Defeat him and you end the first part of the narrative. Next comes the post-game content
• In the post-game, you are restricted to the Episodes focusing on the other characters. All your stats for Pokémon collected remain but the main overworld is no longer accessible
•  When you start off the post game, there are 8 episodes to play. When you play an episode and finish it, multiple episodes will be unlocked. Your Collection gets added to in each episode so you can still get all the Pokémon and leaders, however as the storyline is done, these episodes are all that's left. There appear to be 33 in total, each showcasing a special Bushou, many of whom you didn't use in the main narrative.
• In the episodes, you follow the adventures of the Bushou and have to battle in a certain amount of nations. There are five stars for difficulty and this shows how long they are.

Pokemon + Nobunaga's Ambition: Coverage Day 1

There are around 199 Pokémon and 200 different Bushous (essentially trainers) to encounter and befriend within the game
There is a Pokédex style system which registers each of these Pokémon and Bushou.
Once you claim the city, the areas within it open up for you to find the Pokémon and Bushou
Passwords are locked until you have defeated the area
Each city has the ability of having up to six Bushou assigned to it. These can be changed at will
The amount of Bushou and Pokémon you can befriend depends upon how many cities of which you are in control
Each Pokémon can only have one possible move rather than a selection. Abilities make a return within the game with similar effects to the main games
Edit: We also have a list of the first 10 area names and will be creating Area pages shortly
Hajime Nation - (Hajime Nation) - ハジメ
Flame Nation - (Kaen Nation) - カエン
Fist Nation - (Kobushi Nation) - コブシ
Earth Nation - (Daichi Nation) - ダイチ
Plant Nation - (Aoba Nation) - アオバ
Spring Nation - (Izumi Nation) - イズミ
Pupa Nation - (Sanagi Nation) - サナギ
Tram Nation - (Shiden Nation) - シデン
Wing Nation - (Tsubasa Nation) - ツバサ
Dragon Nation - (Ryu Nation) - リュウ
Gem Nation - (Gem Nation) - ゲンム
Pointy Rock Nation - (Kigan Nation) - キガン
Poison Fang Nation - (Dokuga Nation) - ドクガ
Shadow Nation - (Yasha Nation) - ヤシャ
As you get into the game, you first get attacked by Hideyoshi's squad in the Hajime nation. Defeat them and you gain access to the nation areas where you can raise your Pokémon in battle against wild Pokémon. After that, you have the opportunity to go to the Flame Nation to bring the battle to Hideyoshi. Once beaten, Keiji will appear.
Each of the various areas within each nation can increase in level as time goes on allowing for stronger opponents to arrive. 
After obtaining the Spring, Flame & Plant nations, three more nations open up, the Fist, Tram and Pupa nations. You also learn about Nobunaga's role in leading the region
Once you have defeated the Fist, Tram and Pupa nations, you unlock the Earth Nation and the Gem Nation
Created a preliminary Area Listing which will be continually updated over the next few days
Defeating either Gem Nation or Earth Nation will get you both nations and both trainers Kenshin and Shingen. This then unlocks four new areas; Wing Nation, PointyRock Nation, Poison Fang Nation and Shadow Nation. There is a tree in some areas that boosts up the power of your Bushou

We have received yet another password for Pokémon + Nobunaga's Ambition. This password from the official site gives you the Pokémon Panpour to befriend. The password for this Pokémon is: ズヂメ7メボオ6. We'll bring more passwords as and when they come so be sure to keep checking back
Edit: The official strategy guide has revealed the password for the Pokémon Gyarados: レルル６カミルフ

CoroCoro Images Reveal Box Art & Japanese Keldeo Event + Japanese Meloetta Event

(Thanks to Serebii)

The latest scans from CoroCoro revealed the box art for the upcoming games, Pokemon Black 2 and White 2. Also in the images revealed a Keldeo that will be distributed in Japan once you prebook tickets for the movie, Kyruem and The Sacred Swordsman Keldeo. Finally, the Japanese Official Site accidentally revealed an event for Meloetta.

This image shows that the Pokemon will be on the box according to the color of their body, unlike the previous games. White 2 will have White Kyruem with a white background with fire shooting out from the back. Black 2 has Black Kyruem on a black background with lightning shooting from the behind.

This shows an event involving Keldeo. This doesn't tell much as you cannot see the moveset, but it is confirmed that it is Level 15. This Pokemon is available when you preorder the movie tickets for Kyruem and The Sacred Swordsman Keldeo. Tickets will be available for order on April 14 and Keldeo will be up for download on June 23. It will be available for Black, White, Black 2 and White 2
