Official Black 2 & White 2 Help thread

So, I'm at that Hoenn-ey room in Clay Road during the day. What do I do?

Has it been confirmed whether you can get both the shiny Dratini and shiny Gible on one game by switching to White Forest/Black City using Unova Link? And if not (or as well), is it possible to switch the city/forest before beating Banjirou, and therefore receive the opposite dragon to your game (Dratini in B2, Gible in W2)? Does he even show up in the one that you didn't start with?

You can only get the dragon from your game, since you can't switch Keys until you've beaten the Tower or Treehollow.

Read what's on the statues. You should be able to figure it out from there.

"Chamber of the one that joins the sun in protecting this place."

"The world is split into two: day and night...black and white..."

"The protectors were born out of rock, ice, and magma..."

"Two answers are needed to find the true path. Courageous one, let me tell you the answer I know. Check the ground six steps down and [circle] steps right of the eyeball. The other answer can only be found when the moon is in the sky."

What does that mean?

[TotalPotato]

Well, you know whatever you're looking for is six steps down and a number of steps right from "the eyeball", so you just have to check some tiles until you find it. You just have to find the eyeball now.

I could tell you outright what to do, but I'm assuming that the reason you're asking here rather than looking it up is so you don't get explicit instructions. If not, just let me know and I'll tell you.

Hi, I'm new to pokemon BW2 I used the method of Gen 5 to rng to generate iv for BW2 according to guide but however the result keep on varying. Is it that BW2 do not have a definite method yet? If there is can anyone post the link or guide me? Thanks in advance. =D

Not sure if this is where I should post this but...

I talked to Bianca to find out the hapiness level of my Eevee so I could know when to evolve it. I looked up what she says for 220 happiness here on Serebii but none of them matched what she said in the game.

What I read here: 'It is quite friendly to you! You must be a kind person!'
What Bianca said in my game: 'You seem really close! You look so happy, it's enough to make me happy too!'

So if I may ask, if anyone knows of course, what level of happiness does that mean?

I don't recall exactly what was said when I was checking my Budew's happiness, but I believe she mentions something about being jealous when a pokemon is happy enough to evolve. I think that would be the next level after where you are at.

There are up to something like a dozen timer0s in BW2 from what I've read, so it may just be those trolling you. You would prolly want to check this thread for more advice though.

I'm curious, is the Tournament Data permanent when downloaded or will it go away after the distribution period?

[MallorylovesVulpix]

How common are N's Pokemon? I've been searching for Sandile for hours. I know I never saw or killed it, if that thought came to mind.

I was wondering if there was a way to watch pokemon cutscenes again in White 2? Does anyone know?

[Birds of Paradise]

Is it just me or is PWT really hard? I was excited to do PWT since you'd only have to win 3 (?) battles instead of the 7 from the battle subway but outside of the driftveil one I have not been able to ko even one pokemon of my opponents. Even with type advantage (rentals) it seems like the opponents pokemon are much stronger. Anyone else having trouble or is it just me?

It should stay.

No.

The PWT Pokemon are all EV-trained. If you're not using EV-trained 'mons yourself, you're gonna have a bad time.

Ok, so I am in a wild pokemon fight in Mistraltion Cave with a female Axew, I only have 5 badges, should I catch and train this Axew? The rest of my team is: Dewott, Growlithe, & Scraggy. Please help!

[Rakurai]

I've found this to be untrue for the early tournaments.

This was especially evident in the Mix tournament, where an inspection of my opponent's Pokemon revealed them to all have zero EVs and an IV of 10 in every stat.

They definitely start using EV trained Pokemon after the Unova Leaders tournament, though, as while I breezed through that one, I rarely last even a single round in any of the others, and Pokemon that have even a slightly higher base speed stat then mine are ALWAYS faster, whereas I could still frequently outrun them in the Unova Leaders.

Sure! Leveling up Axew to Haxorus will help you a lot! Great Pokemon! Maybe check out the team building thread for more help! But I say why not!?

I just got waterfall and was wondering where all the waterfalls in pre-elite 4 Unova are! I want to explore everywhere before going into victory road!

I just got waterfall and was wondering where all the waterfalls in pre-elite 4 Unova are! I want to explore everywhere before going into victory road!

Let me see if I can remember them all. There aren't a huge amount of waterfall areas, but if I miss one, I'm sorry. Route 20, Lostlorn Forest, Route 14, Route 11, and Victory Road should be the areas with Waterfall pre-Elite 4. I believe that's all of them. Route 20 is the least important one, being the one with access to Cave of Being, which gives access to the Sinnoh pixie trio, post-game.

I need help on that as well. I have no clue what the eyeball is

When can you see a Wailord in the Marine Tube?
