Are the new forms of Kyurem (Black and White) new Pokemon?

Question

Are they just forms of Kyurem (like Deoxys-A is a form of Deoxys), or are they completely separate pokemon, with different move pools, abilities, stats, etc...? (Are they separate Pokemon according to the pokedex?)

Answer 1

They are just Forms for Kyurem. Black Kyurem learns Freeze Shock, and White Kyurem knows Ice Burn. Also yes, they are Serperate Pokemon in the Pokedex.

@heracross: Think of it like Deoxys. He is one Pokemon with many forms.
