 To fix the site for the international release of Black and White, planned to be released March 30, 2011, the previously Japanese-only Global Link was disabled of certain features on certain dates. From March 18 to 22, no Pokémon could be obtained from [[Pokémon Dream World]]. From March 22 to March 30, Global Link, as well as Game Sync, was made unavailable. This however was extended due to the {{wp|2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami|Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami}}. Despite delays, {{DL|Pokémon.com online games|Play to Befriend a Pokémon!}}, a game that allows players to obtain one of the [[Eeveelutions]] with their respective Hidden Abilities, was made available on March 28. On the other hand, Global Link itself again became available on April 12, 2011, which was also the premiere of the international versions of the Global Link.
+In June 2012, the website underwent another revamp in both appearance and to accommodate compatibility with {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}; it was down between June 5 and June 20. During this time, the [[Global Battle Union]] was inaccessible and the [[Game Sync]] function was inoperable.

 * Japan and Korea: Tuesdays 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. JST/KST

 Occasionally, the amount of time for the maintenance may change. In addition, players who use Pokémon Trainer Club accounts may not be able to access Global Link if the Trainer Club is under maintenance (i.e. if Trainer Club is under maintenance, players may not access the English-language Global Link, but they may access the Japanese-language Global Link).
-In June 2012, the website was impossible to be accessed in any way, including with the [[Global Battle Union]] and with [[Game Sync]], because of a major maintenance of two weeks, from which it came out with a very different look. Altough [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Versions]] were about to be launched at that time, the code necessary to introduce the game sync ID for those versions was still not introduced at that time.
