With the new Pok?mon Challenge, players can test their Pok?mon knowledge in a variety of quizzes. To ensure that players have access to the Pok?dex that will aid them the most while playing Pok?mon Black Version 2 andPok?mon White Version 2, the original Pok?dex 3D will no longer be available from the Nintendo eShop after Oct. 1.
Join Avenue: In Pok?mon Black Version 2 and Pok?mon White Version 2, players will also have the ability to explore a new area called Join Avenue. Join Avenue is populated by anyone with whom a player has interacted through wireless tag mode, trading or battling. These players will open shops in Join Avenue that sell rare items not found elsewhere in the game. There are several different types of shops that can be opened on Join Avenue, including ones that offer supplies or the ability to power up Pok?mon. The rarity of items that can be purchased from these shops is determined by how populated a player’s Join Avenue is.
Memory Link: By connecting Pok?mon Black Version 2 or Pok?mon White Version 2 with a previously played Pok?mon Black Version or Pok?mon White Version game, players will be able to see what happened to some of the characters from Pok?mon Black Version and Pok?mon White Version during the past two years. They’ll also be able to capture special Pok?mon. The scenes players encounter in Pok?mon Black Version 2 and Pok?mon White Version 2 will depend on how far they have progressed through Pok?mon Black Version or Pok?mon White Version. To use Memory Link, players must have either two systems from the Nintendo DS or Nintendo 3DS family, or broadband Internet access and a Pok?mon Black Version game or Pok?mon White Version game that has been synced to the Pok?mon Global Link website.
Pok?mon Dream Radar: Launching Oct. 7 exclusively on the Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, Pok?mon Dream Radar is an entirely 2D experience that lets players catch Pok?mon and items using augmented-reality technology by moving the Nintendo 3DS to aim and shoot Dream Clouds. Caught Pok?mon and items from Pok?mon Dream Radar can be transferred into Pok?mon Black Version 2 and Pok?mon White Version 2. The game lets players take on the role of an assistant to Professor Burnet, a scientist studying the Interdream Zone. The Pok?mon that players catch in Pok?mon Dream Radar may have hidden abilities that aren’t available in Pok?mon Black Version 2 and Pok?mon White Version 2, and many of the items in the game cannot be found in Pok?mon Black Version 2 and Pok?mon White Version 2.
