Official Black 2 & White 2 Help thread

I believe that one was an after E4 event.

Oh, if you're right, I have to wait then...
I will continue to play then (with the Eevee I caught in the park).
Thanks for your answer ^^ !

Cause there is one on route 3

Actually, there are two Grottos in Route 3.

So then...just how soon/where is the first available hidden grotto pre-elite four?

Route 5 and Lostlorn Forest, but the one in Floccesy Ranch is accessible as soon as you get there if you have a Pokemon that knows Surf.

Funnily enough, we can visit the one in Lostlorn Forest or Floccesy Ranch before we visit the one in Route 5, yet the "tutorial" given by Bianca about the Grotto will always happen only in the one on Route 5.

Quick question, if I get White 2 and do the key thing where I change White Forest to Black City and do the Tower challenge and beat Benga(Banjirou) will I recieve the shiny Gible or will it still be the shiny Dratini?

Banjirou will appear only on the original facility, since you have White 2, that means Banjirou will appear only in White Forest's Treehollow.

He won't appear if you change the area, he will be replaced by a Veteran instead. If you beat the Veteran instead of Banjirou, that counts as beating a Veteran, not beating Banjirou, so you won't get a shiny, until you swap the City back into the Forest and challenge Banjirou.

That sucks, I really wanted the shiny Gible instead of the Dratini

When exactly can you access memory link? I wanted to hook the games up as soon as possible.

I believe it's as soon as you start the game.

Thank you very much ^-^. Even if my team isn't that high lvl at that point I still want to try to catch a grotto pokemon as soon as I can

It's cool that we can trade between BW & B2W2. I obtained my Washibon on B2 with this.
Just about the heylink missions, the missions where you have to find 5 objets in the clouds: which advices do you have?
Because I only found 4 objets because of the Onix and other Pokémon that battle with me.

Does the wi-fi method of connecting your old B/W file to your new B/W 2 file work by searching for your accomplishments from your last game sync?

I want to connect my Black file to Black 2 with my latest Musical Prop and Battle Subway accomplishments, but does it only do that for the last game sync you made by tucking in a Pokemon?

I have a question about Memory Link. I have White1, but I preordered Black2. Will Memory Link not work as it is suppose to because I didn't get White's squeal? Should I call GameStop to ask if they can switch my preorder? I don't want to be penalized in my game, just because I wanted the other version. :x

There is no penalty for doing so. It doesn't matter if Black links with Black 2 or if White links with Black 2. The only restriction, at least as far as I know, is that they have to be of the same language.

That is great news! :'D Thank you! The people at the cashier were making me nervous "you sure you want Black 2 and not White 2" ><;

I have a question I'm trying to collect all pokemon for the shining charm but it's says

"capture all the Pokémon in the National Pokédex (not counting event legends) "

does it count the event legends from old gens or does it mean Victini, Keldeo, Meloetta, Genesect

and I should have Mew and Celebi and all old events to get the shining charm

Event legends counts all of them. Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys, Phione (I think), Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Keldeo, Meloetta, & Genesect

I guess I will make a check of things regarding memory link?

Do you need to put in the Black (White) 2 Gamesync ID into Global Link?

How many times can you actually transfer the memory link from your old game to your new game?

Does your latest Game Sync (i.e. tucking in a Pokemon) allow you to transfer your music props, subway trophies, etc.?

[de_darkrai]

You just need one time on that memory link's stuff

[R_N]

It's more he's asking: If you have an update in BW1 (more props, further into the storyline, things like that), can you redo Memory Link so you're up to date

Hey how do you upload/put a picture in your text?

[Wulava]

General questions about the forum should be asked at the SPPf Help & Newbie Lounge.

Be sure to read the General Forum FAQ as well.
But anyway, this should help you: Forum FAQ - Signatures and Pictures

I have a few questions actually... 3 In total...

1- I want a Cubchoo pre-E4 to use on my main team but I heard you can only get one in winter on a specific route, I also heard about them appearing in the grotto but I believe it is very rare. I was planning to trade over a Cubchoo egg WITH the avalance/Ice Punch move, I had a look at the site but found it very confusing on how to breed one, can someone simplify it for me please

2- There was something said about getting you Subway trophies from Black and White to the new Black and White 2 games, are these sent over automatically once we hit memory link for the flashbacks, and would this also automatically send over the musical props?

3- Is it just me encountering this problem or does the Pokemon Global Link website still pop up as 'under maintenance' for anyone else aswell?

Thanks

I'm pretty sure that you can get a Cubchoo normally in BW2 at Route 7.

Sorry for not being able to answer your other questions, though.
