Appendix:Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Walkthrough/Part 6

## Nimbasa City

Nimbasa City is a huge city of leisure, with various facilities such as the Battle Subway, the Pokémon Musical, and an amusement park. The east of the city leads to Route 16, and the west leads to Route 5.

When you enter the city, Subway Bosses Ingo and Emmet will be standing at the entry to the Battle Subway. Talk to the Trainer in front of them. and you'll be asked if you'd like to battle together. This is the opposite-gendered player character to the one you chose at the beginning of the game. So if you are a boy character, you'll be paired up with Rosa, and if you are a girl character, you'll be paired up with Nate. Do as requested and get ready for a Multi Battle against the two Subway Bosses.

* If the player character is female

* If you chose Snivy
* If you chose Tepig
* If you chose Oshawott

* If you chose Snivy
* If you chose Tepig
* If you chose Oshawott

After the battle, Ingo and Emmet go back to the Battle Subway. Rosa/Nate will give you a Vs. Recorder. This enables you to record a video of a battle in the Battle Subway or a Link Battle with a friend.

### Battle Subway

Inside the Battle Subway, you can get on a real winning streak. For every seven Trainers you defeat, you'll get Battle Points, or BP. These can be used to exchange for different items on the lower floor.

* Left attendant
* Right attendant

From the Battle Subway's Gear Station, you can also take the brown train to Anville Town.

## Anville Town

Anville Town is a small town that is reached by riding the brown line in Gear Station. A turntable for changing the direction of trains sits in the center of town. On weekends, the town is bustling with tourists who have come to watch the trains that come through on those days.

A girl will be standing right in front of you on the platform when you get off the train. When you talk to her, you'll find out that her Pansage got lost somewhere in Nimbasa City. Remember this for a bit later.

You can get an item in a house on the eastern side of town, but what you get depends on the number of times you've battled in the Battle Subway. Each seven-win streak you have will increase the variety of items it's possible to receive.

On weekends, trains come to the turntable, and many people who trade items also visit the town. You can trade the following items:

When you trade an item with a Backpacker, the Funfest Mission "Exciting Trading"**B2**/"Exhilirating Trading"**W2** will be added for you to play.

Return back to Nimbasa City once you're ready.

## Nimbasa City

Head to the Pokémon Center to heal your Pokémon if you need, then check out the Poké Mart.

* Upper cashier
* Lower cashier

Be sure to talk to the station attendant with the Pansage outside of the Musical Theater. He'll go back to Anville Town to give Pansage back to the little girl there. If you go back to Anville Town and talk to the little girl again, she'll thank you for getting Pansage back to her by giving you a BrightPowder.

Talk to the Gentleman inside the Pokémon Center to receive ten Red Shards. Go outside and use your Dowsing MCHN on the left side of the Pokémon Center's exterior to find a hidden Thunderstone.

The house just west of the Pokémon Center is the Battle Institute, which hosts the Battle Test. However, you can't actually participate until after the main story.

In the house just north of the Pokémon Center, there are some Ace Trainers inside talking about Shiny Pokémon. Head up the stairs and talk to the young man with blue hair. He will give you a Sun Stone. Go to the house next door to this one and on the second floor is a woman who will give you a Soothe Bell.

### Big Stadium and Small Court

*Main article: Big Stadium and Small Court → Pokémon Black 2 and White 2*
Head north and you'll get access to the Big Stadium and Small Court. These arenas double as battlegrounds where you can defeat the sports players to train your Pokémon. After defeating certain Trainers, they'll give you various items. The sports and Trainers will change daily and their Pokémon's levels will increase the more Badges you've earned.

### Musical Theater

East of these is the Musical Theater. Inside, the owner of the theater will give the player a Prop Case. This lets you store the Props your Pokémon will use as you participate in the musicals. You start off with a selection. Choose a Pokémon and dress it up, then feel free to do a Musical. Afterwards, talk to the girl on the right and she'll give you TM49 (Echoed Voice).

Go through the gate to Route 16 on the east side of the city and speak to an Infielder waiting at the gate. He'll give you a Macho Brace. This will boost the EV growth of the Pokémon holding it, though it will temporarily lower its Speed.

## Route 16

There are several Trainers here so you can train up your Pokémon before your Gym battle.

Use Cut west of him and go north to pick up a Heal Ball. Go back to the road to battle some more Trainers.

Go back a bit and use Strength to push the boulder in the hole, then go northeast to battle a Backpacker.

Use the Dowsing MCHN north of her for a hidden TinyMushroom. East of her in the narrow passageway is TM66 (Payback). Go back to where the male Backpacker is and go northeast into the Lostlorn Forest.

## Lostlorn Forest

Two years ago, Lostlorn Forest was a grove thick with trees. But this was only an illusion created by Zoroark, and it actually looked like the fantastic scene it is now.

Straight north of the entrance is a Pokémon Breeder. Like all Pokémon Breeders, he will rebattle you every time you exit and re-enter the area.

Right inside the tree stump near him is an Ultra Ball. North of this is a Pokémon Ranger.

She will give you a Pecha Berry for defeating her. Use the Dowsing MCHN northwest of her for a hidden Leaf Stone. Go east of this to battle another Pokémon Ranger.

He'll give you a Cheri Berry for defeating him. East of him is a Net Ball. Go west of him and talk to the Backpacker. He will tell you about Zoroark's visit two years ago, and after the story he will give you TM95 (Snarl). As he departs, he transforms into Zoroark and departs.

In order to fully explore this area, you'll need Surf and Waterfall. It won't be for a while though.

If you go back to Route 16 and try to go east, you will enter the gate that connects to the Marvelous Bridge; however, the elevator inside the gate isn't moving, so you can't go there yet. It will start working again after you enter the Hall of Fame. For now, head back to Nimbasa City.

## Nimbasa City

Go to the east side of the city and you'll be at the amusement park. Just past the entrance toward the south end, you can pick up the Dropped Item, a lost Xtransceiver.

The identity of the person who lost the Dropped Item depends on the gender of your player character. If your player is a boy, the owner of the Dropped Item will be Yancy. If your player is a girl, the item belongs to Curtis. You'll receive a call from Yancy/Curtis, and you'll end up holding on to it for now.

There are a few vending machines here as well.

The building on the east side is the Nimbasa Gym, which is in a new building than it was two years ago. Clyde will be out front, saying the Gym Leader isn't there at the moment, and that she's in the building where you can ride the roller coaster. East of the Gym is a large Audino figure. In the corner to the northeast of it is a Parlyz Heal.

There's a Trainer in front of the ferris wheel next to the roller coaster who will battle you. The Trainer you battle depends on your character's gender and the current season.

* If the player character is male
* If the player character is female

* Spring
* Summer
* Autumn
* Winter

Go to the Shining Roller Coaster west of the Gym. Right outside the building in the trash can is a hidden Revive. Two years ago, this building used to be the Nimbasa Gym. You can still ride the train cars inside and battle a few Trainers.

In order to get to the back of the building, you have to get off and press the switches to redirect the path of the cars. Once you're at the back, the girl there will tell you that Elesa just left and you just missed her, but she'll give you a Parlyz Heal for making it all the way there.

Now you can challenge the Gym. Don't forget to go heal your Pokémon at the Pokémon Center before you do. You might want to stock up on some healing items and probably Parlyz Heals, especially since this Gym specializes in Electric-type Pokémon. You can also use a Ground-type Pokémon you caught at Route 4 or the Desert Resort.

### Nimbasa Gym

As usual, Clyde will be there to give you a Fresh Water. Elesa, the supermodel Gym Leader, has designed this Gym with a long catwalk. You'll have to defeat all the Trainers on the catwalk before you can proceed to the Gym Leader.

Once you defeat Elesa, she'll reward you with the  Bolt Badge! With this, Pokémon up to Lv. 50 will obey you. She'll also give you TM72 (Volt Switch).

Start heading toward Route 5. As you're walking toward the gate, you'll run into Hugh along with Team Plasma in front of the Big Stadium. Hugh doesn't try to hide how angry he is with Team Plasma. The Grunts are also itching for a fight. You'll have to battle two Grunts in consecutive battles.

The Grunts will leave when you win. Afterwards, Hugh tells you a story, and the reason for Hugh's rage becomes clear: Team Plasma stole his sister's Purrloin five years ago. All of his frustration for not being able to protect his sister's Purrloin has turned to anger, and since then he has been confronting Team Plasma. He decides he needs to get stronger to get Purrloin back, so he'll keep fighting until he does just that. After his story, he heals your Pokémon and then chases after Team Plasma.

Continue on to the next Gym, which is in Driftveil City, which is just past Route 5 to the west.
