* Japanese versions of Pokémon Black and White are region-locked, so can only be played on Japanese-region [[Nintendo DSi]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]] systems; however, because the [[Nintendo DS]] and [[Nintendo DS Lite|DS Lite]] do not support region-locking, they can be played on these systems regardless of region. The Korean and Western language releases are not region-locked, so can be played on any Nintendo DS or 3DS system regardless of region, but can't be play on iQue DSi and iQue 3DS XL systems .

==Localization changes==
* The Online Battle name differs between regions.
* The chance that {{a|Poison Touch}} will poison the target was changed from 20% to 30% in international versions.
* The symbol used in the move {{m|Imprison}} was changed in the international versions.
* The amount of C-Gear skins distributed differed between regions; Japanese versions had 31 skins, North American versions had 22 skins, and European versions had 25 skins.
* As {{p|Victini}} is a Shiny Locked Pokémon, its shiny form can never be obtained. In Japanese versions if the game generated a value that would cause Victini to be shiny, the battle would never begin, this was fixed in international versions.
===Localization changes shared by Pokémon Black, White, Black 2, and White 2===
* In all Generation V core games, Pokémon such as {{p|Cofagrigus}}, {{p|Froslass}}, {{p|Nosepass}}, and {{p|Probopass}} that originate from English-language games cannot be traded through the [[GTS]] unless they are given a nickname due to the word filter in the games. This was fixed from Generation VI onwards so that they did not need a name change to be traded.
