And nothing of value was lost.

How many cards you have there? Tool Scrapper only affects the new Tools but doesn't touch PlusPower which is all Kyurem need to to OHKO said Garchomp.

@Xous: I think they did that to avoid problems with BW1. If you use the Reflective Mirror on the Sacred Beast Formes caught in the Dream Radar, they change to Incarnation forme but the item must be held. If you use the Reflective Mirror on the Incarnation ones from BW1, they change to Sacred Beast but the item must be held too. So, if you want the Sacred Beast Formes without having to use an item, you must still catch them in Dream Radar (and also to get the Mirror). I'm sure Reflective Mirror can't be traded to BW1 since it doesn't exist in those games' code. And they must have definitely put some restriction on the Sacred Beasts from the Dream Radar so they can't be traded to BW1 too. This way, you can change formes while still avoiding problems with BW1 since there's no placeholder data in those games.

That's not what I had an issue with. At first it looked like their abilities were changed based on their original game, but it seems I was thrown off by the wording of the news post. The news post says:

"The Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus you catch in Pokemon Dream Radar will come with the Regenerator, Volt Absorb, and Intimidate abilities (respectively), but if you change them to their Sacred Beast Formes using the Reflecting Mirror item, they will have their hidden abilities: Defiant for Tornadus and Thundurus and Sheer Force for Landorus."

So instead of being the way you outlined above (which is the way I thought it should be), the news post makes it sound like the Sacred Beasts get the Dream World abilities if they originated from the Dream Radar. I see now it's just a typo that needs to be changed to avoid confusion.
 
Wow this news is awesome. I like the new form for Keldao. Also can't wait for the new features of B/W 2. I also like the new cards posted. I might be getting a Victini in a trade soon. It is the Nobel Victories one I think. The one with V- Blast. Anyway. the news is awesome XD.:)
 
There will be a Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, and Pikachu egg distribution for B2W2 at some point. All three of the Kanto Starters will come with False Swipe and Block as well as Frenzy Plant and Weather Ball for Bulbasaur, Blast Burn and Acrobatics for Charmander, and Hydro Cannon and Follow Me for Squirtle. Pikachu's moves are unknown at this time.

inb4 Volt Tackle Pika.
Anyway, it's nice to see Pokemon with more moves; I can see Fire type Weather Ball being prominent on Venusaur in Sun. I wonder whether they'll have their usual abilities or their Dream World ones. DW would be nice on Bulbasaur, I have to say.
 
There is only one problem with Weather Ball XD. It only works at it's best in weather conditions and you only get 5 shots. 5 shots is not enough to do massive damage unless your Pokemon is very strong. I don't get why it is not at least 10 shots like most grass moves are and only grass Pokemon can get the move LOLz.:)
 
I'm actually really happy with this. Weather ball is a great replacement for HP fire on Venusaur. I hope these 4 come with their Dream World abilities, so I can get a Chlorophyll Venusaur without having to use the dream world.

Is it weird to think that I was thinking of the exact same thing?

Weather Ball has 10 PP.

Oh it does? I thought it was 5. I will have to check once I have another DS. Was it 5 in 4th gen? Seems to me it was. I can't remember XD.:)
 
It's never been 5. It's always been 10. You must be thinking of some other move.
 
So Castform and most grass types can get it? I don't use the move much but I have seen Roserade's with that move and that was the only Pokemon that I knew that could get it for sure. I forgot Castform was the first to have that move though.:) I have never raised one yet XD.:)
 
http://www.psypokes.com/dex/techdex/311/all

Here's a full list. Granted, most of the time it's used by either Victreebel or Roserade for coverage, but other Pokemon do get it.
 
Awesome. Thanks man. So only 15 Pokemon can get it 5 of them by leveling up and the other 10 by egg moves? That is so weird XD.:)
 
16, actually. Apparently they left out Raikou, who gets it as a special event (Crown Beast).
 
This is the artwork that is seen in the background of the first three CoroCoro scans. Pretty sweet.

Maybe they were only counting the regular Pokemon and not the event Pokemon so technically Raikou can't learn the move XD.:)
 
The Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus you catch in Pokemon Dream Radar will come with the Regenerator, Volt Absorb, and Intimidate abilities (respectively), but if you change them to their Sacred Beast Formes using the Reflecting Mirror item, they will have their hidden abilities: Defiant for Tornadus and Thundurus and Sheer Force for Landorus.

Are you sure you don't mean their Incarnation/Regular/whatever formes?
 
These ACE SPEC cards are one of the stupidest things I've ever seen. Only one being allowed in your deck isn't enough to justify +120 HP/+50 damage.

Oh... I didn't notice that typo because I had already seen the news on Serebii and it's the way I described it.

Unfortunaly, from what I saw on an event database, they come with their regular abilities (Overgrow, Blaze, Torrent).
