Black 2 & White 2 Victory Road

Unova's new gauntlet climbs straight through the bones of N's old castle. Hugh finds you partway up for one last, furious rematch. Fitting that the road to the League runs through everyone's unfinished business.

Victory Road is in Unova. In the story you arrive from Route 23 to the north and continue north to Pokémon League.

Zweilous prowls the caverns at 20%, the midpoint of Unova's Hydreigon line and this road's real trophy. Druddigon, Golurk, and Banette crowd the floors around it, and Excadrill breaks out of the dust clouds.
