Two New Pokemon Games Coming to eShop

Nintendo has finally confirmed that two downloadable Pokemon games first teased during last month’s Nintendo Direct Japanese broadcast will be coming to North America this fall. The first is Pokemon Dream Radar, an AR shooting game that allows players to use the system’s gyroscope and Augmented Reality capabilities along with its internal camera to find and catch monsters in the real world. Pokemon you catch this way can then be transferred over to Pokemon Black 2 or Pokemon White 2, which are also set to release this Fall.

The second download coming our way is an updated version of the Pokedex 3D application. Called Pokedex 3D Pro, it will include detailed information on all 649 monsters from all generations, which will all be unlocked from the start. It will also feature in-depth sorting, comparison and ranking tools, as well as extensive AR capabilities, including the ability to take pictures of Pokemon in the real world and save them to your system’s SD card. Both of these games will be available exclusively on the 3DS eShop.

Nintendo has also released new information on Pokemon Black 2 and White 2’s legendary monsters. White Kyurem (available in Pokemon White 2) will know the move Ice Burn, while Black Kyurem (available in Pokemon Black 2) will know the move Freeze Shock.
