oBJeCt of the gAme

whAt Are Pokémon?

Set out for Adventure in the unovA region!

In this world live creatures called Pokémon. Pokémon come in all shapes and sizes and

live in a variety of locations. Humans and Pokémon have lived together in harmony for

ages. Nevertheless, there are still numerous mysteries surrounding them. In order to find

out more about these creatures, many scientists—such as Professor Juniper of Nuvema

Town—have dedicated their lives to Pokémon research.

In the massive Unova region, you will find everything

from a sprawling metropolis, lined with skyscrapers, to a

vast wilderness, full of greenery. The ultimate goal of your

adventure is to cross paths with many people and cooperate

with Pokémon to shine as a Pokémon Trainer.

Beginning Your Adventure

One day, you and your friends, Cheren

and Bianca, each receive a Pokémon

from Professor Juniper, who asks you

to travel throughout the Unova region

in order to encounter every kind of

Pokémon there is and to complete

the Pokédex. After choosing your first

Pokémon, who will also be your partner

on this journey, your adventure begins.

meet And CAtCh mAnY different Pokémon!

Something to work toward in the game is to complete your

Unova Pokédex by meeting and catching as many different

kinds of Pokémon as you can.

Note: In order to catch all the Pokémon in the Unova region and

complete your Pokédex, you must connect with other Pokémon

versions, such as Pokémon White Version.

BeCome the BeSt trAiner ever!

Also, you’ll want to improve your skills as a Pokémon Trainer. During your adventures,

you’ll battle wild Pokémon, as well as battling other Trainers. Both types of battle will

help you and your Pokémon become better and stronger. In the Unova region, there are

places called Pokémon Gyms, where you can test your skills. Defeat the powerful Gym

Leaders to move toward becoming the best Pokémon Trainer ever.

ChAnging SeASonS

The Unova region has four distinct

seasons. Enjoy the differences between

spring, summer, autumn, and winter

as the seasons change throughout

your adventure. Seasons change once

per month of real time using the clock

feature of the Nintendo DS™ system.

Tips on Raising Low-Level Pokémon



Place the Pokémon whose level you want to raise in the first slot (the top left) of your

Pokémon party. Immediately switch to another Pokémon as soon as you enter battle.

The higher the opponent Pokémon’s level is in comparison to your Pokémon, the

more Experience Points your Pokémon will receive when the opponent Pokémon is

defeated. Pokémon that you received by trading with other players will also receive more

Experience Points than Pokémon that you obtain normally.

where to find Pokémon

Pokémon inhabit caves and areas with tall grass. Pokémon might appear when you are

crossing a lake or ocean using the HM Surf. You may also encounter Pokémon inside

rustling patches of tall grass or where clouds of dust rise inside caves.

Pokémon evolution

Some Pokémon evolve and change form as they grow. A

Pokémon can evolve when its level increases, through the

use of certain items, if it is traded (see page 26), and so on.

tiPS for CAtChing Pokémon

Pokémon eggS

If you use a Poké Ball on a wild Pokémon that has taken very little damage, it is highly

likely to break free of the Poké Ball. You must first weaken the Pokémon by attacking it

until its HP is low. It will also be easier to catch the Pokémon if you inflict Paralysis, make

it Sleep, and so on.

At a certain point in the game, if you leave two of your Pokémon at the Pokémon Day

Care that you find along your journey, you may return to find an Egg. Eggs will hatch if

you keep them in your party long enough.

some useful information.

Battle Box



The Battle Box can be accessed using Someone’s PC. You can

assign a group of one to six Pokémon, separate from your

party Pokémon, to be used in Link Battles. If you have no

Pokémon assigned to your Battle Box, you will use your party

Pokémon in Link Battles.

You can also use the PC here. A Pokémon Center is the most

useful place a Pokémon Trainer can visit!

Note: Communication play can be done on 2F (see page 26) of a

Poison, and so on.

There are some Pokémon that try to run away as soon as a

battle begins. In such cases, try using a Pokémon that has

moves or Abilities that prevent the opponent from running

away. Searching for Pokémon that have such moves and

Abilities is another way to enjoy your adventure.
