Pokémon Black 2 and White 2

Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 are 2012 role-playing video games developed by Game Freak, published by The Pokémon Company and Nintendo for the Nintendo DS. Part of the fifth generation of the Pokémon video game series, the games are direct sequels to Pokémon Black and Pokémon White, being the first sequels in the series. They were first released in Japan in June 2012, with a worldwide release following in October 2012, as the last first-party games for the system. The games feature the legendary Pokémon identified by Junichi Masuda as Black Kyurem and White Kyurem. The games were first revealed on February 26, 2012 in the episode of the Japanese television program Pokémon Smash!, followed by an international confirmation on the Pokémon official website.
Black 2 and White 2 follow a Pokémon trainer's journey to become the Pokémon Champion of Unova, two years after the events of Black and White. Following the events of its predecessors, the criminal organization Team Plasma have come back as Neo Team Plasma, and the player must thwart their plans throughout the story, stopping them from ruling the world. The games also include new features such as the Key System, Hidden Grottoes, new cities, and newly available Pokémon. Like other core series Pokémon games, players must trade between versions in order to complete the Pokédex.
A “Pokémon Grey” game was not released due to the title clashing with the theme of opposites found in Black and White, and to surprise players expecting the developers to follow the same naming pattern as previous titles. It received generally positive reviews from critics and was praised for its new features and changes over the original, but was criticized for its lack of innovation.
