Battle against Pokemon World Champions' finalists
Before the launch of Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 it was revealed that select winners from this year's Pokémon Video Game World Championships (which ended back in August) would have their characters and teams put into the game via Wi-Fi where players would be able to go up against them in the Pokémon World Tournament arena. Well, beginning today, Black 2 and White 2 players will be able to do just that, with 4 players from the Masters, Seniors and Juniors divisions being digitized. We also know their Pokemon teams, listed below. Is anyone planning on taking these guys on? 2012 MASTERS DIVISION CHALLENGE World Champ Ray - Tyranitar, Garchomp, Cresselia, Hydreigon, Rotom, Metagross World Runner-Up Wolfe - Hitmontop, Cresselia, Thundurus, Terrakion, Heatran, Exeggutor World Finalist Abel - Thundurus, Hitmontop, Latios, Cresselia, Metagross, Tyranitar World Finalist Joe - Excadrill, Tyranitar, Gastrodon, Salamence, Rotom, Cresselia
