Development
On January 29, 2010, the Pokémon Company announced that a new game was in development for the Nintendo DS to be released later that year. A silhouette of a new Pokémon was shown by Junichi Masuda on the February 7, 2010, episode of Pokémon Sunday, stated to be in the upcoming film for the summer and to be identified in a future episode on February 21. This new character would also be featured in the March 2010 issue of CoroCoro Comic available on February 15, and is the start of the fifth generation of the Pokémon Franchise. Since then, the character has been named "Zoroark" (ゾロアーク, Zoroāku), and its pre-evolution was also revealed to be named "Zorua" (ゾロア, Zoroa). Both are to be featured in Pocket Monsters Diamond & Pearl The Movie: Phantom Ruler: Zoroark. On April 9, 2010, the Japanese website updated with the titles of the versions as Pokémon Black and White, and announced a Fall 2010 release date.
