BELLEVUE, WA-June 25th, 2012 - The Pokémon
Company International relaunched the Pokémon
Global Link website (www.pokemon.com/pgl),
delivering a fresh look and exciting new
features for
Pokémon Black Version and
Pokémon White Version video game
players to explore this summer. The updated
website includes new player data in its Reports
and My Page sections, plus a brand-new area to
visit in the Pokémon Dream World. The Global
Trade Station has also launched at the site,
allowing players to observe Pokémon trades
happening around the world.
On the Pokémon Global Link's new Reports page,
players can view and analyze previously
unavailable Global Battle Union and Wi-Fi
Competition information such as the most popular
Pokémon used by top players. The Reports page
will also track Ratings and Rankings for players
all over the world who battle via Nintendo Wi-Fi
Connection. And, in the page's Game Sync World
Records section, players can view how countries
around the world rank in different game stats,
including top cycling locations, top healing
locations, top battling locations, and more. The
new My Page section will make it easier to track
your own game's progress and statistics,
including personal reports like Global Battle
Union results, Global Trade Station trades, and
more.
A brand-new area in the Pokémon Dream World has
also arrived.
Pokémon Black Version and
Pokémon White Version video game
players can now tuck in their favorite Pokémon
and explore the new Icy Cave area. In the Icy
Cave, players can meet Ice-type Pokémon such as
Sneasel, Spheal, and Swinub, and bring them back
into their copy of
Pokémon Black Version or
Pokémon White Version. Also new to
the Pokémon Dream World, players have more
control over which Island of Dreams area they
visit, based on the type of Pokémon they have
tucked in. For instance, players can give
themselves a better chance at arriving in the
new Icy Cave area by tucking in an Ice-type
Pokémon.
When the
Pokémon Black Version 2 and
Pokémon White Version 2 video games
launch this fall, only players of the new titles
will be able to meet Unova region Pokémon in the
Pokémon Dream World and bring them back into
their copy of the game. More Pokémon Global Link
features for the Pokémon Black Version 2 and
Pokémon White Version 2 games will be announced
later this year.
To celebrate the relaunch of the Pokémon Global
Link,
Pokémon Black Version and
Pokémon White Version players can
receive a Porygon for their game and other
special Porygon-themed items via the Pokémon
Global Link beginning July 12th! Specific
details on how to participate will be announced
on www.pokemon.com
when this special promotion kicks off.
To participate in the promotion, players must
have a free Pokémon Trainer Club account, a
Nintendo 3DS or a Nintendo DS system, and a copy

Pokémon White Version video game
