Brought to life with improved graphics, Unova is a mix of urban and natural landscapes in which players are just as likely to encounter skyscrapers and bridges, as they are to walk alongside mountains and seascapes. It is of course also filled with a potent blend of all-new Pokémon, including the Legendary Vast White Pokémon Reshiram and the Deep Black Pokémon Zekrom. Stepping into the role of either a male or female Trainer, players further have their choice of their first Pokémon, who will serve as the first of many Pokémon companions in their travels through Unova, as they attempt to capture every wild Pokémon variety available and test their skills against other Trainers in turn-based battles. /p h4Experience Legendary Pokémon/h4 p Both of the Legendary Pokémon Reshiram and Zekrom appear in iPokémon Black Version/i and iPokémon White Version/i, but each can only be caught in their respective versions. The Legendary Pokémon Reshiram appears on the cover of iPokémon Black Version/i and the Legendary Pokémon Zekrom is seen on the cover of iPokémon White Version/i. See their types, abilities and profiles below. /p table class="data" tr td valign="top" width="107"  /td td valign="top" width="495" div align="center" div class="centerImage" style="width: 100px;"img alt="Legendary Pokémon Reshiram from Pokémon Black and Pokémon White" title="Legendary Pokémon Reshiram from Pokémon Black and Pokémon White" src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/G/01/videogames/detail-page/pokemon.blk-wte.reshiram.100.jpg" border="0" width="100" height="100" div class="imageCaption"bReshiram/bbr/ View larger. /div /div /div /td td valign="top" width="500" div align="center" div class="centerImage" style="width: 100px;"img alt="Legendary Pokémon Zekrom from Pokémon Black and Pokémon White" title="Legendary Pokémon Zekrom from Pokémon Black and Pokémon White" src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/G/01/videogames/detail-page/pokemon.blk-wte.zekrom.100.jpg" border="0" width="100" height="100" div class="imageCaption"bZekrom/bbr/ View larger. /div /div /div /td /tr tr td valign="top" width="107" h5Appearance:/h5 /td td valign="top" width="495" div align="center" iPokémon Black Version/i /div /td td valign="top" width="500" div align="center" iPokémon White Version/i /div /td /tr tr td valign="top" width="107" h5Type:/h5 /td td valign="top" width="495" div align="center"Dragon/Fire /div /td td valign="top" width="500" div align="center"Dragon/Electric /div /td /tr tr td valign="top" width="107" h5Category:/h5 /td td valign="top" width="495" div align="center"Vast White Pokémon /div /td td valign="top" width="500" div align="center"Deep Black Pokémon /div /td /tr tr td valign="top" width="107" h5Ability:/h5 /td td valign="top" width="495" div align="center"Turboblaze /div /td td valign="top" width="500" div align="center"Teravolt/div /td /tr tr td valign="top" width="107" h5Profile:/h5 /td td valign="top" width="495" div align="center" Reshiram can engulf its surroundings in flames. /div /td td valign="top" width="500" div align="center" Zekrom can disappear inside thunderclouds and fly across the skies. /div /td /tr /table h4New Battle Modes Add a New Level of Strategy/h4 p In addition to a wealth of new Pokémon for players to catch, train and battle with, iPokémon Black Version/i also supplies players with entirely new ways to fight with its new Battle Modes: Triple Battles and Rotation Battles.
