Where to catch Reshiram in Pokemon Black and White 2

(NOTE: This will only work in Pokemon White 2. If you own Pokemon Black 2 you'll have to trade for Reshiram.)

The white twin of jet black Zekrom, Reshiram is a potent dragon-type pokemon that can make mincemeat of most run-of-the-mill beasts. Though the star of Pokemon Black originally, it makes a return appearance in Pokemon White 2 - and you can catch the thing, with some work.

Go to Victory Road after defeating Ghetsis (which is more or less mandatory) and climb to the top. On the final hill, if you stick to the left side of the screen, you'll see a Zoroark standing in front of a cave. Follow it in and tag the creature until it leads you down to Team Plasma's old castle. Inside you'll find N, who will bring out Reshiram for you to challenge. Beat the beast - but don't try to catch it just yet. Defeat Reshiram and N will reduce it to a stone, one of the key items from Pokemon Black and White, and give you the stone.

Once you have access to Icirrus City, climb to the top of Dragonspiral Tower. At the top the stone will revert back to Reshiram. Now you can fight and capture it as you would any legendary.

Where to catch Zekrom in Pokemon Black and White 2

(NOTE: Zekrom is only available in Pokemon Black 2. If you have White 2 you'll have to trade for it.)

The legendary pokemon of Pokemon White, Zekrom is back for another round in Pokemon Black and White 2. In fact, it's somewhat integral to the plot, though the part it plays is admittedly small and comes right at the end. Nevertheless, you can catch this pokemon as before - though it's a bit trickier to do this time around.

You can't catch Zekrom for your team until after you've defeated Ghetsis and made your way to Victory Road. On your way up Victory Road, towards the Pokemon League, you'll have to climb a mountain face. If you watch the left side of the mountain you'll see a Zoroark standing in front of a cave. Chase the Zoroark into the cave and follow it down into the ruins of Team Plasma's old castle. Inside, in his throne room, you'll find N waiting. He'll present Zekrom. Fight and beat it. Don't bother trying to capture it, that won't work.

Once you've trounced Zekrom, N will reduce it to a stone that will look familiar to players of the old games. Take this stone to Dragonspiral Tower, north of Icirrus City, and climb to the town of the tower. Once there the stone will come to life and return Zekrom to its original form. Now you can battle and capture the pokemon.
