There are eight different types of avenue shops, which are Raffle Shops, Beauty Salons, Dojos, Markets, Flower Shops, Antique Shops, Cafés, and Nurseries. All of these provide different services, but some variation in terms of services provided is also found within most shop types, depending on the shop owner. These are referred to as variations A, B, C, and D in this article.

In order to open a shop, the player must invite a visitor to do so, which will make him or her a resident running a shop of his or her preferred type and personal variation, if applicable. The avenue can contain a maximum of eight shops at a time. After this limit is reached, inviting visitors will require replacing an existing shop.

As the avenue's rank increases, NPCs will start residing in the players office and on the avenue. These will ask the player multiple-choice questions concerning personal information and preferences. The answers given will be used to determine various outcomes when players interact on each others avenues. One of these NPCs, namely the man residing in the player's office wearing a black suit and shades, does not follow this pattern, and will instead provide some information about the current shop owners in the player's avenue - this applies only to the multiplayer representations owning a shop, as the man will have no information about regular NPC fans. He will not have as much information about players of [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Black and White]] as of players of [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Black 2 and White 2]].

Upon reaching Rank 20, the owner of the avenue will appear in the player's office, after which a sequence follows, where the player and his or her four assistants celebratingly walk down the avenue, greeting all of the shop owners, displaying various information about the avenue's current status. This feature has its own background music, ジョインアベニューであいさつ! ''[[Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 Super Music Complete|Join Avenue Salutation!]]''

The owner of the avenue will reward the player with one {{DL|Valuable item|Stardust}} for every rank increase after Rank 20, except for every tenth rank, where he will give a {{DL|Vitamin|Rare Candy}} instead.

The rank of a shop determines the services it provides. The maximum rank a shop can reach is Rank 10, after which it will stop receiving popularity points, although it can still be recommended to visitors, contributing with popularity points to the avenue rank. Any service provided by a shop can only be provided once per day, unless the shop's rank goes up, in which case it will refresh.

When all eight shops on a player's avenue have reached Rank 10, the shop owners decide to run a special promotion, which lasts for seven days. During a promotion, all services are discounted beyond the usual avenue rank-based discount, making it possible to break the 40% discount cap during such a period. Raffle Shops, which are free and thus cannot be discounted, give the player two chances instead of one during promotions.
