'''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 [[Nintendo DS]] games that are the first [[core series]] Pokémon games of [[Generation V]]. The games were released in Japan on September 18, 2010, in North America on March 6, 2011, in Europe on March 4, 2011, and in Australia on March 10, 2011. They take place in the [[Unova]] region. These games are enhanced on the [[Nintendo DSi]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]] families.


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, [[Unova]], on their [[Pokémon journey]]s. This region is inhabited by various {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, and unlike before, none of those available prior to [[Generation V]] can be obtained before completing the main story by defeating [[Team Plasma]].
