The '''Relocator''' (Japanese: '''てんそうマシン''' ''Transfer Machine'') is a feature available in {{game|Black and White|s}}.
The '''Relocator''' (Japanese: '''てんそうマシン''' ''Transfer Machine'') is a feature exclusive to the original {{game|Black and White|s}} that allows the transfer of specific event [[item]]s and {{pkmn2|event|Pokémon}} from the [[Generation IV]] games.


The Relocator is used to transfer any of the four Pokémon distributed to commemorate the [[M13|thirteenth Pokémon movie]]{{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Celebi}} and the Shiny [[legendary beasts]], {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Raikou}}, {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Entei}} and {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Suicune}}. The machine allows players to transfer over these Pokémon before they can access the [[Poké Transfer]], which is only available after first beating the game, allowing players to obtain {{p|Zorua}} or {{p|Zoroark}} at an earlier time.
==Usage==
This feature is used to transfer any of the four {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} distributed to commemorate the [[M13|thirteenth Pokémon movie]]—{{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Celebi}} and the {{Shiny}} [[Legendary beasts]] ({{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Raikou}}, {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Entei}}, and {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Suicune}}). It allows {{player}}s to transfer over these Pokémon before they can access the [[Poké Transfer]], which is only available after obtaining the [[National Pokédex]], thus permitting the obtainment of {{p|Zorua}} and/or {{p|Zoroark}} at an earlier time. The unused event [[item]] [[Lock Capsule]] is also transferred to {{game|Black and White|s}} using the Relocator.


The Relocator is unlocked the same way as the [[Mystery Gift]] feature is unlocked in previous [[generation]]s—by inputting certain phrases. In this case, the phrases are used when talking to a scientist in [[Castelia City]], which can be done as soon as players arrive in the city for the first time. After unlocking the Relocator, it may be accessed in the same screen as the options for Continue and New Game. The scientist is located on 11F of the only building on the west side of the road connecting Castelia's fountain area with the gate to {{rt|4|Unova}}.
The Relocator has screens and options similar to those of Poké Transfer. Because of this, transferring requires two [[Nintendo DS]] systems as well as [[Generation IV]] and {{gen|V}} games of the same region, meaning that, for example, a Japanese version of either Black or White is not compatible with an English {{game|Platinum}}. In addition, players are also prohibited from sending over Pokémon that know [[HM]] [[move]]s or that are [[Held item|holding items]]. This means that the {{Berries}} held by the [[event Pokémon]] must be removed.


When choosing the Relocator option, players encounter screens and options similar to when transferring a Pokémon over via Poké Transfer. Because of this, transferring requires two [[Nintendo DS]] consoles (of any type, may they be varying) and [[Generation IV]] and {{gen|V}} games of the same region, meaning a Japanese Black or White game may not transfer with, for example, an American {{game|Platinum}} game. In addition, players are also prohibited from sending over Pokémon that know [[HM]] moves or that are holding items. This means that the [[Berries]] held by the event Pokémon must be removed. Lastly, the Pokémon must be transferred using this method to activate their respective events; the Poké Transfer will not work.
==Activation==
The Relocator is unlocked in the same way as the [[Mystery Gift]] system in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}—by inputting certain keywords to answer questions. In this case, the keywords are used when talking to a {{tc|Scientist}} in [[Castelia City]], which can be done as soon as {{player}}s arrive in the city for the first time. He is found in the eleventh floor of the only building on the west side of the road connecting Castelia's fountain area with the [[gate]] to {{rt|4|Unova}}.

The Relocator (Japanese: てんそうマシン Transfer Machine) is a feature exclusive to the original Pokémon Black and White that allows the transfer of specific event items and Pokémon from the Generation IV games.

Usage

This feature is used to transfer any of the four Pokémon distributed to commemorate the thirteenth Pokémon movieCelebi and the Shiny Legendary beasts (Raikou, Entei, and Suicune). It allows players to transfer over these Pokémon before they can access the Poké Transfer, which is only available after obtaining the National Pokédex, thus permitting the obtainment of Zorua and/or Zoroark at an earlier time. The unused event item Lock Capsule is also transferred to Pokémon Black and White using the Relocator.

The Relocator has screens and options similar to those of Poké Transfer. Because of this, transferring requires two Nintendo DS systems as well as Generation IV and V games of the same region, meaning that, for example, a Japanese version of either Black or White is not compatible with an English Pokémon Platinum. In addition, players are also prohibited from sending over Pokémon that know HM moves or that are holding items. This means that the Berries held by the event Pokémon must be removed.

Activation

The Relocator is unlocked in the same way as the Mystery Gift system in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum—by inputting certain keywords to answer questions. In this case, the keywords are used when talking to a Scientist in Castelia City, which can be done as soon as players arrive in the city for the first time. He is found in the eleventh floor of the only building on the west side of the road connecting Castelia's fountain area with the gate to Route 4.

After unlocking the Relocator, it may be accessed from the main menu.
