Will Best Wishes take the "Black/Black 2" or the" "White/White 2" direction?

(This thread isn't anything like "B2/W2 - How will it affect the anime thread")

Since Black/White doesn't really have a 3rd version, I was wondering...

Will Best Wishes go slowly (and loosly) adapt the Black/Black 2 story or the White/White 2 story?
 
Considering Unova is almost over with the 7th Gym leader already appearing in the 80th episode they have to.

There's nothing left to do.
 
Unless they pull a "Celebi" and go two years into the future, I don't think so. I think M15 will be the best thing we'll get to an anime-based B2/W2 storyline.
 
I think it'll stay mostly neutral
If they'll have to pick one, they'll probably go with White - based on both the fact the Zekrom version of the movie was apparently the "main" one + the fact Ash met Zekrom when he arrived in Unova and we also learned more about Zekrom in that Juniper's father ep... while Reshiram was ignored so far
 
My guess is that they'll try and balance the two, which is pretty much what they've done in the past (not that RS and DP had differences as huge as BW, but still), taking elements of both. I've seen speculation, for example, that Opelucid will be the advanced Black version version (... yeah), and Village of Dragons will stand in for White version's, uh, version. I'm pretty sure at this point that if Ash only allies with one of the dragons it'll be Zekrom (i.e. White version), but even that doesn't put the anime firmly on one version or the other, since the fact that it's already shown up at all puts them closer to Black version for now.
 
Yeah, it'll only become apparent for what they choose to do with Opelucid, unless something causes them to show White Forest/Black City first. With the others, there was a clear middle road they could take. The evidence seems to indicate they insisted on the separate iterations existing. Then again, the movie Kyurem can evidently become either of it's two forms if I've read that correctly. (but evidently this world doesn't have the problem of the two dragons being kept by separate people either) I cannot say if Black or White is what they're following with full certainty, and by extension, their sequels.
 
I feel like we'll need to know what'll be different between Black 2 and White 2 (other than the mascots, of course) before we can start speculating on anything like this.
