Pass Powers

Like Black & White, Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 have various Pass Powers which you can use. These powers can be purchased or received by passing players by or by unlocking them by raising your Entree Level and purchasing them using Pass Orbs. These are stored on your C-Gear and can be used at any time. Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 introduce three new powers types, dealing with Hidden Grottos, shaking grass and more.

The Pass Powers all have beneficial features which allow for you to hone your game. These can be augmented with stronger Support Powers which can be given through passing by Black & White games. Support Powers have similar functions to the Pass Powers but last significantly longer.
