The subject of this article has no official name. The name currently in use is a fan designator; see below for more information.

(Japanese: ブラック Black) is the male player character in Pokémon Black and White. He is the male counterpart to White.

In the games

Black is a boy who lives in Kanoko Town, as do his childhood friends, Cheren and Bel. If chosen as the player, he will receive a starter Pokémon from his family as a gift. He will receive a Pokédex from Professor Araragi. After setting off on his Pokémon journey at the same time as Cheren and Bel, Black will at some point be asked by Makomo to do some sort of quest; in return for its completion, Black will receive a C-Gear.

As well as encountering and battling his childhood friends at various points during his journey, Black will also meet a man known as N, who wishes to create separate worlds for humans and Pokémon. In order to achieve his goals, he and Black will battle several times during the course of the game. It is assumed that Black will also battle Team Plasma at various stages of his journey.

If not chosen as the player (that is, the female character was chosen as the player), he appears as your character's partner in the Battle Subway when you choose to ride the Multi-Train. As your partner, his name is Touya (Japanese: トウヤ). The origin of this name is speculated to be a combination of the word "tou" (透, meaning transparent and with the implication of being untainted) and the male name suffix "ya" (也).
