Pokemon Adventures: Black 2 & White 2, Vol. 1

Description

Awesome Pokemon adventures inspired by the best-selling Pokemon Black 2 & White 2 video games! Two years have passed since Team Plasma was defeated and Trainer Black was sucked into the Light Stone along with Legendary Pokemon Reshiram... Now Team Plasma is back to its wicked ways, controlling other people's Pokemon and even wild Pokemon with technology. Luckily, a new young hero and Looker of the International Police are on their trail... Colress, the new leader of Team Plasma, is attacking the Unova region. His machines control Pokemon, wielding their powers for evil instead of good. Fortunately, a way to jam the signals is stored on a memory card. But who has the card...? A girl at the Pokemon Trainers' School! Maybe that's why our hero is such a flirt-he's just doing his job gathering intel. But he'd better stop playing the field and find that card fast before someone beats him to it!
