 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.
-Black and White are compatible with all five [[Generation IV]] games through use of the [[PokéShifter]] - unlike [[Pal Park]], however, [[item]]s cannot be held by Pokémon being sent over. Pokémon can be sent from Generation III games, as well, by transfer through Generation IV. The games also have the capacity to connect to the {{wp|Internet}}; players can upload their save file and play online.

 <!--==Blurb==
 "Welcome to the new [[Generation V|generation]] of Pokémon!" As a rookie [[Pokémon Trainer]], you will need to catch, train and battle Pokémon on your journey to become the [[Pokémon League]] Champion. You will face many challenges along the way. Discover more than 150 new Pokémon in the [[Isshu]] region. Meet goals and earn the ability to import Pokémon from your [[Generation IV]] games.-->
-==Connectivity==
-Much like its predecessors, Black and White allows players to connect to the previous generation of main series games. The [[PokéShifter]] feature, which is unlocked after defeating the Elite Four and [[Team Plasma]], allows players to send over their Pokémon through DS Download Play. Transferred Pokémon are captured through a mini-game different from the one present in Generation IV's [[Pal Park]].
 ==Features==
-Black and White returns features present in previous generations, such as day, time, abilities and the split between [[Physical move|Physical]] and [[Special move]]s. Certain ones, however, such as [[walking Pokémon|Pokémon following their Trainers]], have been left out.

-The C-Gear is the [[Pokétch]] of these games, with the only exception being it doesn't use applications. The C-Gear allows players to use certain multiplayer functions while anywhere in the game world.

The C-Gear is similar to the [[Pokétch]] in that it fills the bottom screen, but its applications are much different.

 Black and White bring a total of 156 new Pokémon, bringing the overall total to 649 from the 493 present in Generation IV. While some new Pokémon may have similarities to previously introduced Pokémon, none of the new Pokémon are related to any of the 493.
-The first Pokémon to be revealed are {{p|Zorua}} and {{p|Zoroark}}, who were both featured in the [[M13|thirteenth Pokémon movie]]. Unlike previous generations, no other new Pokémon were featured in the anime.

 ==Compatibility==
-Black and White are able to connect with all [[Generation IV|fourth generation]] main series games. Pokémon from Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver are able to be traded forward to these games; like the transfer available in [[Pal Park]], Pokémon sent to Black and White cannot be returned to their original games. Some event Pokémon released in Generation IV have the ability to unlock more events in Generation V: specific {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}} and {{p|Celebi}} unlock {{p|Zorua}} and {{p|Zoroark}}. Likewise, the [[Lock Capsule]] transferred from Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver yields {{tm|95|Bark Out}}, but this event has yet to take place.

-Black and White also have the ability to connect to the Internet, accessing the [[Pokémon Dream World]]; Pokémon acquired in this manner are obtained in the [[High Link|High Link forest]]. Moreover, the [[C-Gear]] allows for a certain form of wireless, Wi-Fi and infrared play regardless of the player's location in the games.
-Although the game cartridges contain infrared technology similar to that used in HeartGold and SoulSilver, Black and White are unable to connect with the [[Pokéwalker]].
