Pokémon Global Link Offers More Ways To Train In Black And White Versions
As we slowly inch closer to the March release of Pokémon's Black and White versions, The Pokémon Company continues to roll out new details to further excite fans about the releases. In Pokémon Black and White, players will be able to access the Pokémon Global Link website that will launch after the games hit retail. This service will allow you to sync your DS game save to PCs in order to access exclusive content, collect more critters, communicate with other trainers, view Worldwide Battle Ratings, and more.
The Pokémon Company reports three components of Global Link:
Dream World: Interact with Pokémon and engage in minigames for new items and creatures that can be transferred back to your game.
Global Battle Union: Keep track of your battle records and earn a Worldwide Rating that may earn top performers an invite to participate in live regional tournaments in the Pokémon Video Game Championship series. Might even make your way to the world championships in San Diego!
Global Trade Station: Launching later this year, the trade station will allow you to track worldwide trades.
These online features present just some of the fun diversions you'll find when exploring the expansive Unova region once the games finally get their North American release on March 6.
For all the latest details, check out the Black and White official site.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
