Genesect

In Black and White, upon entering the P2 Laboratory with Genesect in the party, a Scientist named Dudley will appear and become surprised that the player has the Pokémon of the canceled project that he was working on.

In Black 2 and White 2, the Genesect event remains the same. However, a Team Plasma Grunt now lingers outside the building, and following the downfall of Team Plasma, Colress parks the Plasma Frigate at the island for the rest of the game.
