'''Generation V''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|世代|いちせだい}}V}}''' ''Generation V'') is the fifth generation of Pokémon games. 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 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}—instead of a third version. For the first time since [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}} (following the internal identification of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} rather than the advertised console), the games were released on the same platform as [[Generation IV|the previous generation]]'s core series titles, in this case the [[Nintendo DS]]. It was not given an official name until after the release of the cast commentary for the ''[[Detective Pikachu (movie)|Detective Pikachu]]'' film where the Roman-numeral form was officially given by the subtitles.

[[Unova]], the new [[region]] introduced in this generation, is known to be far away from the regions of previous generations. Unlike the past four, Unova is based on an area outside of {{wp|Japan}}, drawing inspiration from the {{wp|New York City metropolitan area}}.
