Our 1st Smogon Community Playthrough is for Pokémon Black 2 and White 2.

General Rules & Info

To join, send a message in #1397773187575451749 with which version you'll be playing and (if any) your challenge/theme run. This can be changed at any time.

Send a playthrough update in the respective channel each week. The information provided should be as follows:

  • Current Team (Full sets are not needed, just the pokemon are needed!)
  • Total Play Time
  • Number of Pokémon SEEN.

If you unable to complete the current checkpoint, send a message in #1397775192323002388. You are still expected to update your progress upon reaching that checkpoint.

If you don't update us before the weekly deadline, you will be dropped from future checkpoints. To re-join, you must submit data for all missed checkpoints.

Hacking is prohibited. However, almost all in-game choices, including glitches, are permitted.

Do not progress further in the story until the next checkpoint has started. This is a community playthrough, and the idea is for members to go through the game together.

Event Organizer Info

Community Playthrough Administrators will keep an eye on #1397773187575451749 and update everyone's progress. Please be patient!

Registration formally ends after August 5th. Join before/on that date for guaranteed entry!

Even if you join after Checkpoint 1 has been finished, send a progression message in the Checkpoint 1 channel when you complete it.

If you need to reach out to a community playthrough administrator, feel free to DM one of us:

@dense fable
@solemn lynx
@muted fog
@languid pivot
@crisp pumice

Do NOT message us for team updates. Post them in the respective channels.

Checkpoint Info:

Once you complete a checkpoint, you may keep playing, but do NOT progress further than the checkpoint boundary.

CHP 1: Defeat Burgh and obtain the Insect Badge (July 30th - August 5th) [Don't encounter Colress on Route 4]
CHP 2: Defeat Skyla and obtain the Jet Badge (August 6th - August 12th) [Don't take the plane to Lentimas Town]
CHP 3: Defeat Zinzolin on the Plasma Frigate (August 13th - August 19th) [Don't confront Team Plasma at the Giant Chasm]

We aren't super strict on time if your timezone changes things. We trust you to be honest enough to continue the next checkpoint in the right time.
