'''Pokémon Black Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター ブラック''' ''Pocket Monsters Black'') and '''Pokémon White Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター ホワイト''' ''Pocket Monsters White'') are the primary [[paired version]]s of [[Generation V]]. They are, like [[Generation IV]]'s games, on the [[Nintendo DS]].

Black and White, at this stage, appear to follow the trends set up by previous games in the series. Two [[player character]]s (one male and one female) travel a new region, [[Isshu]], on their [[Pokémon journey]]s. This region is inhabited by various {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, some of which have not appeared prior to Black and White. The first of the new Pokémon to feature in these games, {{p|Zorua}} and {{p|Zoroark}}, were revealed on February 10, 2010 in [[CoroCoro]] magazine, and the [[starter Pokémon]] were revealed in May.
Black and White follow the trends set up by previous games in the series. Two [[player character]]s (one male and one female) travel a new region, [[Isshu]], on their [[Pokémon journey]]s. This region is inhabited by various {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, almost all of which have not appeared prior to Black and White. The first of the new Pokémon to feature in these games, {{p|Zorua}} and {{p|Zoroark}}, were revealed on February 10, 2010 in [[CoroCoro]] magazine, and the [[starter Pokémon]] were revealed in May.


The games' names were revealed on the official Japanese Pokémon website on April 9, and scans from the subsequent issue of the magazine were leaked on April 10. These scans revealed some of the graphical enhancements that will be featured in these games. There is a higher level of 3D graphics than in previous games, as shown in some shots of the overworld. Initial sprites can be seen for Zorua, Zoroark, and the as-yet unnamed [[player character]]s. Higher-quality versions of these images were released on the official Japanese site on April 15.

In addition to the improved graphics, a number of aesthetic changes have been made from previous generations, including an altered battle scene containing fully animated Pokémon battle sprites as well as a dynamic camera that changes focus to highlight specific parts of the battle. Also, when talking to people, {{wp|speech balloon}}s for dialog will appear over people's heads, rather than as simply a dialog box.
