Conquer Lacunosa Town's Gym in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2! Learn strategies for the Double Battle against Zinzolin and a Grunt, and prepare for your next steps.

Alright, you've made it to Lacunosa Town, and it's time to tackle the next Gym! Before you can do that, though, you'll have to deal with a couple of Team Plasma grunts who are trying to cause trouble. Get ready for a Double Battle!

The Battle:

  1. You'll be up against Zinzolin and a Team Plasma Grunt. This is a Double Battle, so both your Pokémon and your opponent's Pokémon will be on the field at the same time.
  2. Zinzolin's Pokémon are:
    • Cryogonal (Level 42, Ice-type)
    • Sneasel (Level 44, Dark/Ice-type)
  3. The Grunt's Pokémon are:
    • Golbat (Level 39, Poison/Flying-type)
    • Garbodor (Level 39, Poison-type)
  4. Your rival, Hugh, will also be fighting alongside you, and his party will depend on your starter Pokémon:
    • If you chose Snivy: Emboar (Fire/Fighting), Simipour (Water), Unfezant (Normal/Flying)
    • If you chose Tepig: Samurott (Water), Simisage (Grass), Unfezant (Normal/Flying)
    • If you chose Oshawott: Serperior (Grass), Simisear (Fire), Unfezant (Normal/Flying)

After the Battle:

  1. Once you've defeated Zinzolin and the Grunt, they'll leave. Hugh will chase after them.
  2. It's a good idea to head back to a Pokémon Center to heal your team before you continue.
  3. After healing, follow Hugh and head into Route 12.
Tips
  • Since it's a Double Battle, think about moves that hit multiple opponents. Ground-type moves are great against Zinzolin's Ice-types, but be careful not to hit Hugh's Pokémon!
  • Golbat and Garbodor are weak to Electric and Psychic-type moves.
  • Cryogonal is weak to Fire, Fighting, Rock, and Steel-type moves.
  • Sneasel is weak to Fighting, Bug, Steel, and Fire-type moves.
