Two new Pokemon developments are expected in the autumn of 2012, Nintendo announced in an official press release. These will complement the upcoming launch of Pokemon White Version 2 and Pokemon Black Version 2.

As the names suggest, these new projects are built on the previous versions – Pokemon White and Pokemon Black. The events in the new editions take place two years after the ones in the originals. The Unova region has underwent some transformations that instantly demonstrate the fact that time has elapsed.

Anyone who owns the Nintendo 3DS console will certainly enjoy the upcoming Pokemon Dream Radar. This is one of the 3DS games developed in a way that makes use of the multiple features of the console including the Nintendo 3DS camera and the augmented reality technology.

Pokédex 3D Pro is another name in the list of upcoming Pokemon 2012 developments. The exciting development in this 3DS game is that you, as a player, will have access to information about every Pokemon in the Unova region, as well as about each Pokemon that is part of the series’ history.
