And it seems White Forest actually has grass. Which means wild pokémon.

That's Heart Stamp, it causes your opponent to flinch.
My bad, it may cause your opponent to flinch.
Hmm, guys, I can't tell if Rankurusu's HP here is 183 or 163.
http://www.pokemon-sp.jp/series/bw/#/pokemon/new/pk011.html
Then here it has 155, like we saw before:
http://www.pokemon-sp.jp/series/bw/#/pokemon/new/pk012.html
Either way, it could have higher stats than we anticipated, meaning it might have substantially higher base stats than we previously imagined.

That means nothing. That one can be EV trained or something. The minimum values are what gives you the better idea. If 155 is with no EV's, and a IV of 0, it has 90 base HP, if it's with 31 IV it has 80 base HP. With 80 base HP (and assuming 31 IV) it reaches a maximum of 187 at level 50 so 183 is perfectly compatible with the minimum.
Well, you can't dismiss it entirely as you say "that means nothing" because it does mean something. Technically, it means nothing to try to calculate its base stats because the range is huge for a Pokemon with 0 IVs and 0 EVs to 31 IVs and 252 EVs. This lack of reliable information gives hope for a decent Pokemon, still.
What I wanted to say is that 183 is compatible with the minimum HP possible so having that HP doesn't mean it has got better stats. And yes, you're right when you say that we have a way too big range to get reliable information but still, better than 90 base HP is impossible. 90 would be good though.
Ok, if Rankurusu has 183 HP in that pic vs. Gochiruzeru, it would have 108 base HP with 31 HP/0 EVs. To fit with the stat screen we saw earlier, that Gochiruzeru would be level 42. Recalculating its base stats based on that, we get:
108 HP/56-57 Atk/61 Def/118-119 SpA/85 SpD/25-26 Spd 453-456 BST
Repeating the same process with 0 IV/0 EVs:
123 HP/72 Atk/77 Def/134 SpA/100-101 SpD/41 Spd 547-548 BST
(If this has any merit at all I'm fairly comfortable in assuming the first one is closer to its actual stats)
Oh, and given the last few posts, I'm just going to say I know that stat screen could still be corresponding to a level 50 Rankurusu, and that stat calculating from these screens is fairly unreliable. I'm just giving out food for thought here.

He appears to be an antagonist, considering his goal is to become champion and split humans from Pokémon. ... That's all we have thus far.
AGREED. White version all the way, baby.
Where did you find information to base this claim? It's possible but doesn't seem that way to me right now... actually, I'm leaning towards pure Grass, and always have been.
That screenshot looked like a 183 HP stat to me... so it seems like Rankurusu is going to have a very beefy HP stat. Nice idea reverse-calculating it's stats at lv42, but it's hard to predict that actual base stats right now; however, your estimates seem reasonable (the first one more so, as much as I'd love the second's stats!)

Hey look, Mijumaru is smiling.
But he still looks retarded.

Do you mean Rankurusu, the one that looks like a baby in a cell? If so then yes. The Goth looking one is in Black.
The Green Blob Baby is in white according to Serebii.
Trading isn't an option anymore?
Wi-fi should make that easy to fix. You'll probably even be able to snatch a random one of GTS. (Which I'm guessing will return in some form or another in B/W)
It's already confirmed to be in the games. Except this time, they're in the Pokemon centers.
Bwahaha. If (when) he turns out to evolve into something epic, it is because he was abused as a child Pokemon, just like Magikarp.
Also, notice Pokabu in the leftmost pic. See how it's posture and appearance make it look more like a dog, than a pig? I think it's a really neat touch, and I hope it's evolutions continue that feel.
Pokemon White is definatley going to be the better of the two.
@Shroomisaur:
I've also noticed how Pokabu doesn't het anyone to play with, poor thing...
@Skylar56:
Only 2 version exclusive pairs are known at the moment, so it might be a little early to tell. And wether game is the "best" is of course a quite subjective matter anyway.

Basing it off of coil but you never know. Maybe it's just a move they're giving to all snakes :P
