Two new features of Black 2 & White 2 have been revealed by a promotional pamphlet posted on a Japanese Blog. First is the Fes Mission, which has you partake in missions with friends, in a similar manner to the EntraLink Missions in Black & White and get prizes based upon your score. This is done via the wireless features. Second is Join Avenue, which is part of a shopping centre which you can build with various friends via connecting with them. It's currently unknown to what extent but there is an image of putting a stand in the shop. Other players will be able to visit your shop while you can visit theirs.

In addition to this, a 2000 yen Point Card for the 3DS is being released with a Pokémon design. This card will cover the costs of the 3DS download software Pokémon Dream Radar and Pokédex 3D Pro.

We have learned that a bit of merchandise has listed Keldeo as being in its "Usual Forme". This indicates that Keldeo is to receive a new form within Black 2 & White 2. This factors in with hints from CoroCoro about Keldeo being engulfed in light during battle in the movie and its special power being revealed next month.

Following Sunday's reveal of the 2000 Yen Pre-paid card, we have details that Japan is also going to receive a pre-paid card for 1,000 yen. This card features artwork of Black Kyurem and White Kyurem. These cards can be used for the Nintendo 3DS eShop as well as the Wii Shop Channel and the DSi Shop and can be used to pay for any downloads including the Pokémon Dream Radar and Pokédex 3D Pro games. The 1,000 Yen card is due out on June 23rd in Japan, with limited supply, while the 2,000 Yen one is due out on July 14th.
