I think I like Furou more now. Her clothes are even more skimpy than Jupiter's!

I still like Winona more. Grace and modesty... But, I wouldn't be surprised if Winona's 6th-position Flying-type rival stole all the fan buzz from her.
Brace yourselves for the incoming Furou fan art. I predict it'll be coming in 24 hours. Brace yourselves.
On a non-sexual note, Furou's got a good roster. She reminds me of Winona in a way because of the Normal/Flying and Water/Flying Pokemon, but she's unique because she uses Psychic/Flying. In a contest between Xatu and that bat, though, I'm all for Xatu.

I don't really care what pokémon the Gym Leaders use before I play the game. Luckily I don't remember the Japanese names of the new pokémon, so I'll hopefully still be in for a surprise or two.
Nah!

Serebii's started to reveal the Elite 4 types and rosters. Guess what the first two are? Ghost and Dark. Better hide the psychics, guys and gals.
Very interestingly, the elites only have four Pokemon each, as far as Serebii is concerned. Disappointing. Just disappointing. Now I'll be really disappointed if this game doesn't go beyond the Isshu region.
Rosters (go to Serebii for pictures):
Ghost Master Shikimi (bespectacled female)
Level 48 Desukan the Ghost coffin Level 48 Burunkeru the Water/Ghost jellyfish Level 48 Goruggo the Ground/Ghost boxer (has Iron Fist) Level 50 Shanderaa the Fire/Ghost chandelier of doom (145 Sp. Atk.... shudder)
Dark Master Giima (a smirking male)
Level 48 Zuruzukin the Dark/Fighting reptile Level 48 Warubiaru the Ground/Dark crocodile... with sunglasses (YEAAAAAAH) Level 48 Leparudusu the Dark leopard Level 50 Kirikizan the Dark/Steel warrior
Psychic Master Katorena (big-haired, pretty woman)
Level 48 Rankurusu the Psychic cell Level 48 Musharna the Psychic dream-eater Level 48 Shinbora the Psychic/Flying "What-is-this-I-don't-even" bird Level 50 Gochirezu the Psychic feminine goth
Fighting Master Renbu (badass black man)
Level 48 Nageki the Fighting er... fighter Level 48 Dageki the Fighting counterpart to Nageki Level 48 Roopushin the Fighting concrete block-holder Level 50 Kojondo the Fighting mammal of sorts
And... the champion is apparently Belle. (WAHT A TWIST!)
Level 66 Murando the Normal big-haired dog Level 66 elemental monkey the same type as the player's starter Level 66 Musharna Level 70 starter with a type disadvantage to that of the player's starter
I think that's correct. Just four Pokemon... I wonder what's up with that.

Holy Crap that is a big jump in levels from the E4 to the Champion
I seriously doubt that's true, why in the world would they have all the E4's pokemon the same level? It doesn't make sense, things are supposed to get progressively harder, not suddenly jump in difficulty right at the end.

Cynthia's B/W team:
Spiritomb, Milotic, Garchomp, Lucario, Wargle, and Shiburudon
Wargle replaces Togekiss, and Shiburudon, a levitating Electric lamprey (yes, a levitating Electric), replaces Roserade.
Two Pokemon without weaknesses? Call her Cynthia the Cheap.

*Points to Gravity and that Knock Down move the sarcophagus(I think) knows*

The pure Rock line knows the Knock Down move. The coffin might know it, too. Gravity would work, but it's not that popular for some reason. In HGSS, though, it got some exposure through Jasmine's, Will's and Sabrina's rematch teams (really hurts when all those Blizzards and Focus Blasts are hitting), and I'll certainly use it if I can fit it onto my team, if only because of Jasmine. I'm really eager to find out the new moves, abilities and battle mechanics, so I can do some test battles between Gen I-IV characters and Gen V characters.

Wait each of the elite four members still have one pokemon left that haven't been announced, unless they are only going to give them 4 pokemon (which would make the name elite four make even more sense)

I'm pretty sure they're sticking with four. I'm sure the users on 2ch who are leaking this information have beaten the elites, and they would've mentioned any beyond-fourth Pokemon.
Initially I was disappointed, but with this "seven sages" thing, as well as it looking as if Team Plasma is a post-Championship threat, with Geec... I won't bother trying to spell his name, crowning N, and Cynthia, it looks like the games will have a long post-Championship life. All the better, I say. Makes it more interesting.

How could anybody be at the elite four already the game has only been out for one day.

Also, level 50 isn't the highest of maximum levels. Though, without cheats and leaks, I don't see it being done in one day.
Serebii talks about post-Championship trainers with pretty powerful rosters.
TRAINER 1:
Level 50 Gigigear Level 50 Zoroark Level 50 Abagoora (fossil turtle) Level 50 Aakeosu (prehistoric bird) Level 50 Baibanira (ice cream) Level 52 Zekrom (HOLY F-)
TRAINER 2:
Level 52 Desukan Level 52 Baffuron Level 52 Shibirudon Level 52 Kirkizan Level 52 Gamageroge (Water/Ground frog) Level 54 Sazandora (pseudolegendary)
If these turn out to be real trainers, I'm predicting that they'll either be from Team Plasma (most likely) or be two of the seven sages.
Zekrom, though... I'm thinking Team Plasma. Perhaps N or Geechisu (sp.) takes control over the dragon whose version isn't being played. (On the Serebii leaks, it mentioned Reshiram's stats nine minutes before Zekrom's, so I'm thinking this could be White version that was being leaked, so Zekrom would have been revealed as an opponent.) If these trainers are from Team Plasma, whoa, I'm looking forward to these games even more so than before.
EDIT:
WhoamagodElite4Rematches.
Seriously.
Ghost girl gets a Froslass. Dark guy gets a Sharpedo and a Drapion. Psychic girl gets a Bronzong and a Metagross (her strongest). Fighting dude gets a Breloom and a Toxicroak.
I hope this means gym leader rematches, though that's asking for a lot.

Some sprites, taken from YouTube videos by a Japanese boy named Samuel: Kamitsure I wasn't at all expecting her to be lying down. I'm not a fan of earphones, but she seems like a pretty, relaxed girl. It's nice to see a laid-back young leader. Still waiting to see what her personality is like. She uses two electric flying squirrels and the big zebra. Yakon So he seems to be a businessman/cowboy of sorts. Interesting. I await to discover his personality. He uses the middle crocodile stage, the middle frog stage and the mole.
