Pokémon World Tournament

Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 introduces a brand new feature never before seen in Pokémon games. While previously, the Unova region was far away from previous regions preventing characters and Pokémon being there, the new games allow for more to return and introduce the special Pokémon World Tournament.

Located south of Driftveil City within the Unova Region, there is a tournament building where you can go to do these battles. The battles seem to be organised by the Sinnoh Champion Cynthia. In it, you will face up against numerous trainers, where if you beat them, you can get to the next round. However, the trainers within the tournament are a bit different to normal trainers.

Like the Battle facilities, these work in Single battles and Double battles as well as potentially other different kinds of battles.

When you first enter, based on the story, it only has one facility open to you. However, more open up over time

Left Hand Tournament

On the left are the standard tournaments. These ones don't have many things special, but do feature a variety of trainers and challenges in order to earn Battle Points.

Pokémon World Tournament - Shops

As you battle through the PWT, you will earn Battle Points, just like in the Battle Subway. Like the Battle Subway, it has a store which sells various rare items repeatedly for these Battle Points. On the left are TMs and on the right are the items.
