Summary
Pokemon Black and WhiteRemakes have been at the forefront of thePokemoncommunity’s minds for a long, long time now.
Conversations about The Pokemon Company redoing the fifth-generation titleshave been ongoing for years, and over recent times, more and more “leaks” have arisen.
But strangely, as the biggest leak of all, thePokemon gigaleak, passes its tenth day in the public eye, news about these supposed remakes has been inconspicuously absent.
Are The Pokemon Black And White Remakes Real?
Black and White remake rumors have been happening for a while now, but have really kicked into a new gear as of this year.
In February,fans started to believe Nintendo was teasing the remakes. After that, the rumor mill began to turn faster and faster, culminating early last month when trademarked Pokemon TCG set namesseemingly pointed toward Black and White content, but nothing came.
Fast-forward a month, and the Pokemon gigaleak started. We gotlore on how Pokemon and humans had children together, details onthe full creation myth, thepotential setting of the next mainline games,plans for scrapped content, and even news on how the Pokemon creatorswere worried about arson attacksfollowing Ash leaving the anime. But again, no news on the supposed Pokemon Black and White remakes.
In fact, Black and White have been arguably the most neglected games from these leaks, with minimal information coming out at all. We did find out thatBlack and White 2 had no new Pokemon due to the first game’s backlash, and that theyremade Yoshi’s Egg in the game’s engine, but that’s about it.
So what exactly does it mean?Probably, that these remakes never existed in the first place, or at least they were nowhere near as close as suggested. Take this with a pinch of salt, but you’d have assumed that if the Black and White remakes were real, given the sheer amount of data about upcoming Pokemon games that has been revealed, they’d have been one of the first things shared.
Alas, they were not, and the wait goes on.
