The '''Key System''' (Japanese: '''キーシステム''' ''Key System'') is a feature of the [[Unova Link]] in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}. It allows players to change the difficulty level of the game, switch between [[Black City]] and [[White Forest]], and change the Mystery Door in the [[Underground Ruins]]. They can be shared between players using the Unova Link, but players can only share the keys that are exclusive to their version.

For the first time in a Pokémon game, there are different difficulty levels. There are three different modes: '''Easy Mode''' (Japanese: アシストモード ''Assist Mode''), '''Normal Mode''' (Japanese: ノーマルモード ''Normal Mode''), and '''Challenge Mode''' (Japanese: チャレンジモード ''Challenge Mode''). Only Normal Mode is unlocked by default; Easy Mode and Challenge Mode must be unlocked through the course of the games.

Easy Mode decreases the opponents' {{wp|artificial intelligence}} and the [[level]] of their Pokémon. As such, battles become easier. This mode is unlocked after defeating the Champion in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon White 2]].

Challenge Mode increases some opponents' artificial intelligence and the level of their Pokémon, starting from 1 level and reaching 5 levels by the end of the game. [[Gym Leader]]s and [[Elite Four]] members will also have an extra Pokémon on their team, as well as different [[move]]sets and [[held item]]s. Their [[IV]]s are also increased to 30. This mode is unlocked after defeating the Champion in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2]].

==Mystery Door==
==Mystery Door==
A mysterious door in [[Clay Tunnel]] gives access to the [[Underground Ruins]], where the [[legendary titans]] can be found, though only one titan will appear at a time, depending on which key is active. {{p|Regirock}} is the default Pokémon in both Black 2 and White 2, under the '''Rock Peak Key'''. Upon catching Regirock, and not just defeating it or obtaining it from another game, Black 2 players are rewarded with the '''Iron Key''' and White 2 players with the '''Iceberg Key'''; these allow access to {{p|Registeel}} and {{p|Regice}}, respectively.
