New Pokemon Black and White Information and a Video!
New Pokemon Black and White Information and a Video!
The Global Link information has been released internationally. Heres the press release:
Sadly, the Dream World will not be available when the Global Link is first launched, to stop the servers from being clogged like what happened in the Japanese release.BELLEVUE, WA - January 27th, 2011 - Players of Pok�mon� video games have always enjoyed communicating with others, and the newest Pok�mon titles launching March 6th-Pok�mon Black Version and Pok�mon White Version- will make it even easier to interact with fellow Pok�mon Trainers from all over the world! The Pok�mon Global Link web site, launching this spring after the new Pok�mon video games hit shelves, will give players the ability to sync their game play from their Nintendo DS� systems to PCs via the Internet, and access customizable web-only content, befriend additional Pok�mon, communicate with fellow Pok�mon Trainers, earn and view Worldwide Battle Ratings, and more. Pok�mon Global Link offers a seamless play experience across both platforms-activities players do online will be reflected in their Nintendo DS games. Players will log onto Pok�mon Global Link using their Pok�mon Trainer Club accounts, which can be easily obtained for free at www.pokemon.com.
Pok�mon Global Link features three main components that enhance the Pok�mon video game experience online. The Pok�mon Dream World features all-new ways to interact with Pok�mon in a customizable web-only setting, featuring mini games and scenarios that enable Pok�mon and items to be transferred back into the Pok�mon Black Version or Pok�mon White Version video game. The Global Battle Union allows players to keep track of their battle record against other players around the world and provides players a Worldwide Rating and an opportunity to compete in live events. Pok�mon Global Link will also house the Pok�mon Global Trade Station, launching later this year, giving players the ability to track Pok�mon trades all over the world.
For the first time, video game players will enjoy the world of Pok�mon online in the Pok�mon Dream World. This new area in the Pok�mon Global Link web site comes alive after you tuck a Pok�mon into bed using the Game Sync feature of Pok�mon Black Version or Pok�mon White Version. You can then enter that Pok�mons dream online. Inside the Pok�mon Dream World, players can customize their Pok�mons home, grow Berries, and befriend other Pok�mon by playing various mini games. Players can bring Pok�mon theyve befriended and items theyve found back into their copy of Pok�mon Black Version or Pok�mon White Version. Pok�mon transferred from the Pok�mon Dream World can even be trained for battle! Pok�mon Trainers will also be able to communicate and share items with other players exploring the Pok�mon Dream World.
After registering with Pok�mon Global Link, players will also gain access to the Rating Mode in the Global Battle Union. Players will be able to earn a Worldwide Rating, which is calculated based on a players battle score, and see where they stack up against Pok�mon Trainers from all over the world. Aside from bragging rights within the Global Battle Union, top-performing players may qualify for invitations to live regional and national tournaments in the Pok�mon Video Game Championship series for the opportunity to advance to the Pok�mon World Championships in San Diego, California, in August.
"Pok�mon Global Link will introduce brand-new ways to play Pok�mon that enhance what players love most about the games-battling, trading and collecting Pok�mon," said J.C. Smith, director of Consumer Marketing for The Pok�mon Company International. "Giving players the ability to interact with Pok�mon and other Pok�mon Trainers online deepens the games play experience and connects players from all over the world like never before."
