The '''fifth generation''' of Pokémon, known by fans due to its version names as the '''monochrome generation''', is the fifth installment of the Pokémon series. Like previous generations, the first installments, {{game|Black and White|s}}, were released as a pair. However, unlike previous generations, the games were followed by two sequels, {{game|Black and White|s|4=2}} instead of a third version. For the first time since [[Generation I|Generations I]] and [[Generation II|II]], the games were released on the same platform as all five of [[Generation IV|the previous generation]]'s main series titles, in this case the [[Nintendo DS]].
