The World Championships Tournaments were a set of tournaments downloadable for Black 2 and White 2. The set of tournaments feature the top four contestants from each the Junior, Senior, and Masters Divisions respectively from the 2012 World Championships that were held in Hawaii in August 2012.

The tournaments are conducted under Double Battle rules; therefore, the opponents will pick four of their six Pokémon to battle with. All Pokémon will be set to level 50. No duplicate Pokémon or held items are allowed, and no moves are banned. The Soul Dew is the only held item banned.
