Black's dream of winning the Pokemon League was so strong, Musha bit down on his head to eat his dream but the dream remained. Due to Black having so many dreams about conquering the Pokémon League, he can't think straight, so Musha uses Dream Eater to help him focus and give him a power similar to clairvoyance, allowing him to solve mysteries easily.

Black, Pokémon Adventures: Black & White Arc

Black is the main character in the Black & White arc of Pokémon Adventures.

Appearance

Black without his hat

Black's hair without his hat.

This section, or a part of it, has been transcluded from Hilbert; any changes involving it should be made there instead. / 

Black is a tall, thin boy. He has medium length, messy mud brown hair and brown eyes. He wears a black T-shirt underneath a sky blue jacket that has a sea blue neck and cuffs and a white zip with gray, slightly baggy pants tightened by a black belt with a silver metal buckle. He also wears a scarlet red cap that has a black Poké Ball logo, a scarlet red pair of shoes with black panels and white soles, and on his left wrist he wears a blue Xtransceiver. He carries a black and blue messenger bag with a large white Poké Ball in the center.

He is shown without his hat and his hair is shown to be messy without the hat. Later, as promised to White, he wears a white shirt with the BW logo agency displayed.

Personality

Black is a Pokémon Trainer aspiring to be a Master Trainer, beat the Elite Four and become Champion. He is also clever, as he uses his Pokémon in different ways to help with tasks. He is described also to be 'hot-blooded' because of his loud nature and tendency to do difficult tasks by himself. Black does not understand the meanings of show business like White, as many different aspects of show business surprise him. Black is also familiar with libraries, going there a lot as a child. Also because of Black having many dreams, he cannot exactly think straight. To prevent this from happening often he has his Munna eat them, which he refers to as 'darkening' his 'blank' (in other words, clouded) mind. This allows him to think much clearer in thought and become much smarter in tasks. When he does this, he apparently see everything in his perception in hexagons.

Because of his humongous dream of becoming the Champion of Unova, he is given the title of Dreamer.

Because of these dreams, he can't keep focus on the real world, so he has his Munna use Dream Eater on him to "blank his black mind" which causes him to sense things others can't just like finding the real culprit that in which Black was also accused of messing with White's Xtransceiver commercial, but found the real culprit: a Galvantula, he uses Tep but got most of their equipment burned but he captured it. He also joined the Pokémon BW Agency under President White because he owes White a lot of money because White payed for the equipment in which his Tep burned makes him no other choice but to join her. In Accumula Town, he get's angry at Team Plasma because some people released their Pokémon because of Team Plasma's speech, even Pokémon some people have kept for at least a very long time. He runs towards into finding Team Plasma.

As the story goes on, he starts to call White "boss" because of he being her employee. Black also encounters N and had a match against him which ended in a draw because both of their Pokémon fainted. Though Black stated that N was probably a good guy even though in Team Plasma because his Munna read N's thoughts and it was safe to say that he was a good person. He later met Bianca and Cheren in Striaton City to team up on a three-on-three battle or a Triple Battle. The battle starts out rough but finally manage to win by knocking out Chili's Pansear.

Black then leaves for his Gym battle, running through the puzzle quickly. The Gym battle is ended in a double knockout but Lenora gives her badge up anyway. White then tells him that they should head to Nimbasa to get her Musical project done. But Team Plasma steals the dragon fossil in the museum and Black sets out with Burgh to find it. They then get attacked by the fossil but are able to find the Cofagrigus controlling it and knock it down.

After the fossil is returned, Black and White are attacked by Virizion but don't know what it was. They meet Battle Company President Geoff who suggests it was Virizion. When they arrive in Castelia City, Black finds a lost boy and tells Tep to watch the boy while he gets the authorities. But the boy is a Zorua and attacks Tep. When Black returns, the Zorua escapes and he has no idea what happened. When he meets up with White, Tep goes on the verge of evolving. Black then leaves for his gym battle. In the battle, Tep evolves into Pignite and is renamed Nite. Then they hear about the Pokémon kidnappings. The discover that Team Plasma are the culprits and are defeated. Black and White come to Liberty Garden to find Victini under Team Plasma's custody. Black defeats them and frees Victini.

Black and White come to Nimbasa and start working on the Musical project after they launch the opening ceremony, Black fights his gym battle stuck on a roller coaster but wins using the vertical wheel of the coaster and meets Thundurus.

He challenges Drayden to a gym battle and enters the league last minute. He makes it all the way to the finals only to find that his opponent is his best friend but brainwashed Cheren. Black manages to defeat Cheren but a battle between N and Zekrom, and Black and Reshiram unfolds. N loses and just as all seems well, Ghetsis pushes Black onto Reshiram as Reshiram is becoming the Light Stone again. During the process, he asks White if he has payed off his debt. White says yes and Black disappears into the Light Stone, which flies away all the way to the Entralink.

Bo was given to Black by Prof. Juniper and previously named Tep. In battle, he is a powerful Pokemon who likes to search for items using its Fire-type moves. He also has quick reflexes, strong defense, and is able to keep up with its partner. He evolved into a Pignite during the Castelia City Gym Battle. After the battle, Black changed his nickname to "Nite" due to his evolution. His nickname was changed again to "Bo" after it evolved into an Emboar.

Brav was Black's second Pokémon and is his strongest Pokemon. Brav was originally a Rufflet that attacked Bianca after she stepped on it. Black caught the Rufflet and named it Brav. It evolved sometime before Black was introduced in the manga. Brav is a powerful flier that is able to lift its trainer into the sky with ease. He was in White's possession as she took part in the Battle Subway but after she developed her own Pokemon team, Brav was given back to Black.

Musha was Black's very first Pokemon. Black first met Musha when he was five years old. Black's dream of winning the Pokemon League was so strong, Musha bit down on his head to eat his dream but the dream remained. After a battle with N, Musha was revealed to have only followed Black's orders because his dreams tasted good to him and kept him fed. After the taste of Black's dreams changed over the course of his adventure to Musha's distaste, Musha decides to leave Black. He returns later.
