Pokémon: Black & White: Rival Destinies

Synopsis

Continues the story of Pokémon: Black & White

Like the Advanced Generation and Diamond & Pearl series before it, the Best Wishes! series starts with Ash Ketchum heading to the Unova region, a far-off land distinct from Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh, accompanied only by his Pikachu. After meeting the new trainer and rival Trip along with the region's Professor Juniper, Ash gains two traveling companions: Iris, a girl from a town known for its Dragon Pokémon, and Cilan, a Pokémon Connoisseur and the Grass Pokémon specialist among the three Straition City Gym Leaders.

In this installment

Satoshi, Iris, and Dent press on with their travels across the Isshu region. Having secured his eighth and last Gym Badge by defeating Homika in Tachiwaki City, Shirona proposes that everyone lodge at her villa in East Isshu, where their longtime acquaintance Hikari is also present. While there, they enter the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup, and following that event, Satoshi takes part in the Isshu League. In the background, Team Rocket launches their final scheme for the Isshu region—what drives their obsession with the legendary Pokémon Meloetta?
