REDMOND, Wash., May 15, in the year of our Lord 2012
- Two new downloadable Pokémon titles are coming soon to the
Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS. Pokémon Dream Radar and Pokédex
3D Pro will both release in fall 2012, giving players new ways
to catch and learn about their favorite Pokémon, while expanding
the overall experience for those that choose to play the
upcoming Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2
games on the Nintendo 3DS.
"2012 is shaping up to be a great year for fans of Pokémon video
games," said Scott Moffitt, Nintendo of America's executive vice
president of Sales & Marketing. "Not only can players look
forward to a successor to one of the biggest Pokémon adventures
ever, they can also enjoy two other titles that add to the
Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 experience,
helping to expand their enjoyment when playing on Nintendo 3DS."
Pokémon Dream Radar lets players use several different features
of the Nintendo 3DS system, including the Nintendo 3DS camera,
motion control and augmented-reality technology, to catch
Pokémon by moving the Nintendo 3DS to discover hidden Pokémon.
Players can catch the Pokémon by moving the Nintendo 3DS to aim
and shoot beams at them. Caught Pokémon from Pokémon Dream Radar
can be transferred into Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon
White Version 2, helping players build their roster of Pokémon.
Pokémon Dream Radar also includes some hard-to-get Pokémon,
giving players even more incentive to catch them for their game.
Pokémon Dream Radar will be available exclusively for purchase
via download from the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS.
Pokédex 3D Pro is a fully enhanced and upgraded version of the
original Pokédex 3D application. It includes detailed
information about the more than 600 Pokémon featured in the
history of the Pokémon video game series. Pokédex 3D Pro also
includes in-depth sorting, comparison and ranking tools, as well
as comprehensive details on what abilities each Pokémon can
learn and how it evolves. Additionally, the application includes
extensive augmented-reality capabilities, including the ability
to take photos of Pokémon in the real world. With Pokédex 3D
Pro, all known Pokémon are unlocked from the start, allowing
players to access a wealth of information that will be useful as
they play through Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White
Version 2. Pokémon Dream Radar will be available exclusively for
purchase via download from the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS.
Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 bring
players back to the Unova region two years after the events of
Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version. Players who are
familiar with Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version
will immediately notice that the Unova region has transformed
significantly in the new games. Embark on a new adventure
starting in the new Aspertia City and discover what strange
events are occurring and why the Unova region has changed two
years after Team Plasma's defeat.
Players can also look forward to two new Legendary Pokémon,
Black Kyurem and White Kyurem, which are featured on the games'
packaging. Each of these powerful Legendary Pokémon boasts new
devastating Ice-type signature moves; Black Kyurem knows Freeze
Shock and White Kyurem comes ready for battle with Ice Burn.
Black Kyurem will be available exclusively in Pokémon Black
Version 2, while White Kyurem will only be found in Pokémon
White Version 2. Developed for the Nintendo DS family of
systems, the games can also be played on the Nintendo 3DS system
in 2D mode.
