Black and White Other Pages: Seasons | Salt, pepper and paprika

Black and White are the first Pokémon games ever to include a full seasonal cycle. Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter are all represented within the games, and all have their own unique differences. Each real-time month is represented by a season within the game, so you get three chances to experience each season every year. Let's have a look at all of them!

Spring

Months: January/May/September
Morning: 5am-10am Day: 10am-5pm

Evening: 5pm-8pm Night: 8pm-5am

Summer

Months: February/June/October
Morning: 4am-9am Day: 9am-7pm

Evening: 7pm-9pm Night: 9pm-4am

Autumn

Months: March/July/November
Morning: 5am-10am Day: 10am-5pm

Evening: 5pm-8pm Night: 8pm-5am

Winter

Months: April/August/December
Morning: 7am-11am Day: 11am-4pm

Evening: 4pm-7pm Night: 7pm-7am

New Areas

As previously detailed, Winter in Unova allows you access to two new areas. Heavy snowfall on Twist Mountain and just North of Icirrus City (pictured right) allows you to climb to previously inaccessible areas. This allows you to find various items, the most distinctive being TM90.

Deerling, Sawsbuck and the Seasonal Institute

Generation V's most novelty Pokémon goes to Deerling and Sawsbuck - the Deer Pokémon which decides to change its appearance, just to emphasize the fact that Black and White have introduced seasons. Take each different form to the Seasonal Institute on Route 6 (Unova) and the Scientist will reward you with a not-very-exciting Leaf Stone.

Wild Pokémon

Lastly, certain Pokémon only appear in certain seasons. Keeping track so far? Excellent. The following table only lists where Pokémon appearances differ due to seasons - some can still be found elsewhere all year round.
