A complete walkthrough for Virbank Complex in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, detailing trainer battles, item locations, and Pokémon encounters.
Walkthrough
- 1Head south from the start. Pick up the X Accuracy in the grass to your left.
- 2At the T-junction, take the path to the right. Continue to the end and go down the steps north of the crane to a path along the water.
- 3Speak to the man here. If you choose the top option ('Yes'), he will take a Poke Ball and give you a Great Ball (one-time offer).
- 4Follow the path north, then west behind the buildings, and up the steps.
- 5Follow the path south and east until you reach the end. Grab the Silk Scarf by pressing 'A' facing right.
- 6Backtrack to the T-junction and take the path south to enter the complex.
- 7To the left, between the warehouse and wall, a plant blocks the path south. You need HM01 (Cut) to pass, which requires defeating Gym Leader Roxie first.
- 8Head back to the main path and south to the bald man. Talk to him to accept his request to defeat trainers in the area for a reward.
- 9Continue south under an orange pipe to battle the Youngster with a Lv.13 Pokemon.
- 10After defeating the Youngster, continue south to the Lass by the sea and battle her.
- 11Go north from the Lass and take the steps to your left leading up to the platforms.
- 12Go north then east along the platforms, walking on orange pipes.
- 13Reach the platform east, then south, and take the steps down to battle the Worker with a Lv.12 Magby and Lv.12 Koffing.
- 14After the Worker battle, go down the second set of stairs and collect TM46 (Thief).
- 15Go back up both sets of stairs. Take the pipe north to the northern-most platform. Battle the Worker with a Lv.12 Patrat and Lv.12 Elekid.
- 16Take the pipe west to the next platform, then the pipe north-west to the platform with the Youngster. Battle the Youngster with a Lv.13 Patrat.
- 17Hop back onto the pipe and intentionally drop off. Talk to the Worker on the ground to battle him with a Lv.12 Riolu and Lv.12 Lillipup.
- 18Jump down the ledge to your south and continue south until you are out of the grass. Move east to return to the main area.
- 19Return to the bald man near the beginning of the area to receive TM94 (Rock Smash) for defeating the trainers.
Tips
- The Silk Scarf boosts the power of Normal-type moves.
- Early on, Rock Smash is a decent move for weakening opponents while dealing damage.
- Magnemite is notable as Poison-type Pokemon are weak against it.
