Although we know the boy as Kyouhei and the girl as Mei, their official names have been revealed to be Nate and Rosa (respectively)! Pretty good names in my opinion 😀 Behind the spoiler are two characters who are plot related. As Zowayix noted, these names play on the theme of “resonance” (kyoumei in Japanese) and their names sound like resonate.
[spoiler]
Above is Shadow of the Shadow Triad, originally Dark of the Dark Trinity. We also have Alder’s grandson’s name, Benga, which was Banjirou for the Japanese release. [/spoiler]
Not much time left before the release!

I’m actually ok with these names. I wasn’t a huge fan of the names Hilbert and Hilda for the original Black and White. I was originally gonna go with the Japanese names, but now I may stick with Nate instead of coming up with a new name. lol
You might want to note that the English names do a good job of the original pun on the Japanese names:
Kyouhei + Mei = Kyoumei (“resonance”)
Rosa + Nate ~= “Resonate”
Thanks for that cool factoid 😀
Thanks for the news, PokéJungle!
However, two corrections should be made:
1•Dark Trinity is know as Shadow Triad, not Shadow Trinity.
2•Benga is Alder’s grandson, not son.
Everything else is perfect.
🙂
Thanks xD I was updating at work and about to start my shift. So hectic @@;
I love the protagonists’ new names. Much better than Hilbert and Hilda.
thank god i was expecting kyilbert and meilda.
I love their names~Anything is better then Hilda and Hilbert (sorry you two xD) now if the 7th would get here faster >o<
I want to know guys, how can I configure my wiifii for pkmn games? I just tried to enter password or set everything manual, but nothing worked…
So when it tests the connection does it work? Is it only when you’re trying to connect to a pokemon thing that it fails?
Yes, I can connect by wiifii to internet by browser or dsi shop ect., but in pkmn game’s I just cannot do anything…
Right now the PGL is down for maintenance before Black 2 and White 2 launch, so that might be why.
No no, I had tried even pkmn heart gold and normal pkmn black [for wiifii event] and I stuck : < I've read about different acces settings but I tried that and this didn't work, maybe I need change settings in my router or something…? [I
If you’re using WEP encryption for your WiFi network that might be why. I believe PKMN games are incompatible with it. I’d suggest setting your router to use WPA which I think should work, although WPA is less secure than WEP.
Oh my god, benga… This will be such a mess in my country!
B-E-N-G-A and Benga was his name-o!
The names are better than Hilda and Hilbert. No one has been named that since… I don’t know: 1750? Does anyone think gamefreak should make 10 year old girls have less… developed bodies? It’s frickin’ weird.
