Appendix:Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Walkthrough/Part 8

## Pokémon World Tournament

The Pokémon World Tournament, or PWT for short, is a facility where famous Pokémon Trainers from every region gather to compete against one another tournament-style. You will find an entrance to the Relic Passage in the far western corner. Southeast of this is a hidden Ether.

Just east of the entrance to the Relic Passage is a booth hosted by the reminder girl. She will help your Pokémon remember a move that it has forgotten in exchange for a Heart Scale. Next to her is the Move Deleter. He will make your Pokémon forget moves that they have learned, even HM moves. This is the only way to remove HM moves, so remember him if you need to do that. Talk to the man in the booth north of them, and he will be able to tell you what type of Hidden Power your Pokémon will learn.

Just east of them is Hugh and Clay. As you approach them, Clay will proudly guide you into the elaborate tournament hall. For some reason, Cheren is waiting inside. Called by Clay, he has apparently come to take part in the tournament with you. Hugh and Cheren both head north to register as participants.

Before registering yourself, there are a few more things to check out. To the left and right of Clay is the Exchange Service Corner, where you can buy items with any BP you have from here or the Battle Subway in Nimbasa City.

Back outside, go straight south across the pier and then west to find a PP Up. East of the tournament building, speak to the old man at the ultimate Move Tutor booth, and he can teach the final form of the first partner Pokémon (from any region) the ultimate move—but only if you have max friendship with your Pokémon. And the man at the battle-combo booth will teach battle-combo moves to your partner Pokémon as well. This move can be taught regardless of what evolution stage they are in.

Go to the north side of the area near the vending machines and check the trash can for a hidden Zinc. The vending machines will sell you some drinks as well.

Now you've done everything outside. Head back into the building and go north to speak with the woman with the green hat on the left to register for the tournament. Be aware that you won't be able to use items once the tournament begins. It is wise to give your Pokémon items to hold before registering.

After selecting "Participate," select "Driftveil," and pick the Pokémon you will be battling with. Finally, select "Confirm." Now you're ready to take part in the tournament.

You'll need three consecutive wins to win the tournament. Normally, your opponents in the second and third rounds are not decided ahead of time—but for your first tournament, you'll face Hugh in the first round, Cheren in the second round, and Colress in the final round.

If you end up losing or quitting the tournament, as a consolation prize, you will receive a random Shard of any color. This can be done as much as you want, so if you want to stock up on Shards, continue quitting the battle repeatedly until you're ready to proceed.

* If you chose Tepig
* If you chose Oshawott

You'll receive 1 BP for winning. Afterwards, Roxie will come in and say she's going to enter the tournament. Clay will thank you for popularizing Driftveil City, and then depart.

After this, head outside. Soon after talking with Hugh and Cheren, you'll see Team Plasma members passing nearby. When Hugh moves to run after them, Colress tries to stop him, but he does not listen and runs after them, followed soon after by Cheren. Colress talks to you about the bonds between Pokémon and their Trainers.

After he's done speaking, heal up your Pokémon, then head south after Hugh.

## Plasma Frigate

You will find a huge ship moored at the pier. Enter it together with Hugh and Cheren. It turns out to be Team Plasma's base of operations. The three of you will immediately be surrounded by a crowd of Team Plasma Grunts. Hugh tells you he's about to unleash his rage. You'll then have to battle two of the Grunts.

After they have been defeated, you can team up with Cheren and then Hugh to defeat pairs of Team Plasma Grunts in some Multi Battles.

Now go help out Hugh.

* If you chose Tepig
* If you chose Oshawott

After defeating the Grunts, Zinzolin will appear from within the Frigate. Zinzolin is one of the Seven Sages who was part of Team Plasma two years ago. Team Plasma was thought to have disbanded then, yet now they seem to be operating again for some purpose. Zinzolin declares that Team Plasma will rule Unova with the Legendary Dragon-type Pokémon. At Zinzolin's order, the Shadow Triad appear and whisk you and your allies away from the ship.

You, along with Hugh and Cheren, will be left standing on the dock, and the ship will no longer be there. Infuriated by this outcome, Hugh runs off in a huff. Cheren also leaves to continue onward to Route 6. Before following him there, feel free to go west of the PWT and check out the rest of the Relic Passage.

## Relic Passage

Be sure to have your Dowsing MCHN on while traveling through here. Speak to the Worker just past the exit to Driftveil City. The Funfest Mission "Find Treasures!" will be added for you to play. Go south and then west to battle a Backpacker.

Go east and down the steps, taking the northern passageway and down to battle a Hiker.

Go west of him and use Strength to push the boulder west into the hole. Now you can get through the area freely. Go all the way to the north and you can battle a Backpacker.

Just east of him is a Protein. Go back down to where the Hiker is and go southeast of him to the next chamber. Go down to battle another Hiker.

Go southwest of him and check the rock for a hidden Blue Shard. Go east of the rock to find a hidden Max Repel. Go east of the Hiker and down to battle the Psychic.

South of him is another rock. This one has a hidden Green Shard in it. Go southeast to battle another Backpacker.

The rock next to her has a hidden Yellow Shard inside it. Go back counterclockwise and to the north. On the east side of the dungeon is another Psychic.

In the rock near her is a hidden Red Shard. Push the boulder north of her straight up into the hole. If you go north, you'll enter the Relic Castle. Before going inside, however, go back down and then east. Enter the cave door and you'll be on the side next to the Castelia Sewers.

Go south and push the boulder to the east into the hole. Go north of the hole you pushed the boulder into and then go west. In this small chamber, you'll find (from top to bottom) a Rocky Helmet, a Rare Candy, and an Ultra Ball. You can also use the Dowsing MCHN to locate a hidden Rock Gem.

Go back to the middle chamber and past the female Psychic to enter the Relic Castle.

## Relic Castle

Most of the Relic Castle is now buried in sand. You can only visit the top floor and second floor you visited in the Desert Resort, or the basement floor where you are now. Go east through two rooms. In the third room, use the Dowsing MCHN in the center of the room to find a hidden Sun Stone. Go east two more rooms and you'll find an Ultra Ball on the pile of sand in the northeast corner.

Go back two rooms and enter the north room. At the top of this room is Volcarona.

♀**Volcarona**Lv. 35SilverPowderFlame Body

If you end up knocking Volcarona out here, you will have another chance to catch it after you enter the Hall of Fame. If you catch it then, it will have stronger moves and will be Lv. 65. So you might consider knocking it out now and then catching it later.

## Relic Passage

Go back to the Relic Passage and go all the way south, then take the east door to the Castelia side. Go down to where you pushed the boulder and to the ledges to the west. Jump down just one of them to get a Max Repel. Once you're done here, use an Escape Rope or use Dig to exit the cave and return to the PWT. Go back to Driftveil City and go west to get to Route 6.
