The sixth-generation of the Pokémon franchise continue to make their presence known in the current "Pokémon Black and White" anime series.
The anime in Japan is currently 93 days ahead of the U.S. airdate. While Cartoon Network has just ended the N saga and rolling into the Decolore Islands, TV Tokyo's airings have shown "Pokémon X and Y's" Helioptile and Gogoat with their journalist trainer Alexa.

As Latinos Post reported, Alexa and her two Pokémon are accompanying Ash Ketchum, Iris, and Cilan as they travel back to the Kanto region.
In the latest Pokémon episodes in Japan, Alexa is seen tracking evolution stones. The Aug. 1 episode will feature the return of the Johto region's gym leader, Clair. She is seen trying to control a shiny Druddigon, a Dragon-type Pokémon, which Clair and Iris specialize in.
Perhaps another anticipated episode will be the Aug. 15 airing featuring Noivern, a sixth-generation Flying-and-Dragon-type Pokémon. Although details of the Noivern-based episode are unclear, it may appear to be under the control of Alexa.
The Aug. 22 episode will also prominently feature the sixth-generation Pokémon Gogoat.
In regards to the U.S. airdate of these episodes, it is expected to appear on Cartoon Network between 93 to 100 days after the Japanese airing.
The "Pokémon X and Y" video games are set for a worldwide release on Oct. 12, exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS.
