![]() For the first time since the original series, Giovanni and the Team Rocket organization take center spotlight as villains for Black & White rather than letting Jessie, James, and Meowth do their own thing.Amateur Film-Making Plot: Two of them in the Black & White era, thanks of recurring character Luke: the first one (which also marks Luke's debut) is "Movie Time! Zorua in 'The Legend of the Pokémon Knight'!", where Ash and pals join in the cast of Luke's amateur movie after he failed to do it using only his Zorua as every character in the film (since Zorua is a female and she wants to do only the female characters), and later "An Epic Defense Force!", where Ash and pals join Luke in a amateur movie contest at Pokéstar Studios, making a film that is hogged with references to the Showa Era Godzilla films.Aside from Caitlin and Champion Alder, none of the Unova Elite Four appear in this series.Lentimas Town and Black City are the only towns and cities in the Unova region not to be featured in the anime. ![]() While the Seven Sages do appear, they had their distinct, individualistic appearances and personalities removed (except Ghetsis, of course). Due to the aforementioned situation above, the Shadow Triad do not appear in the anime.Consequently, nearly all of the grey morality surrounding Team Plasma's goal has been watered down or relegated to N, who received a good dose of Adaptational Heroism thanks to the rewrite. The new Team Plasma led by Ghetsis did appear in the anime, but with no hints of an older incarnation thanks to the anime reworking the story to accommodate the new story elements from Pokémon Black 2 and White 2. The original Team Plasma ( aka the self-proclaimed liberators of Pokémon led by N) never made its proper debut thanks to the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami in 2011, which postponed the Team Rocket vs Team Plasma Arc Finale indefinitely.Though even if they did air, the announcement of sequel games as opposed to the usual Updated Re-release third version caused such a shakeup that the rest of the Plasma plotline was excised from the main story, completely separating it from the whole Badge quest and Tournament Arc. Various trailers and a synopsis based on leaked information show that it went pretty much how one would expect it to go - with Team Plasma stealing the Meteonite from Team Rocket, the two teams fighting over it, and Ash intervening and having Pikachu destroy it to end the conflict. The subplot with Team Rocket and the "Meteonite", a space rock with special destructive powers, is built up for several episodes and just as the epic two-part conclusion to this subplot is about to air, an earthquake devastates Japan and the episodes are pulled from rotation and never referenced again. Aborted Arc: In this case, an aborted conclusion to a near-finished arc.
