'''Team Plasma's Tornadus''' (Japanese: '''プラズマ団のトルネロス''' ''Plasma-dan's Tornelos'') was the second of the Forces of Nature to appear and was later caught by [[Team Plasma]].  

===={{chap|Black & White}}====

Tornadus first appeared in ''[[PS490|A Stormy Time in the Battle Subway]]'', where he encounters {{p|Thundurus}} near the [[Battle Subway]] train and begins to engage the Bolt Strike {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in battle. As the train stops due to the rough weather, {{adv|White}} and [[Shauntal]] try to drive the two away. White has {{p|Deerling|Darlene}} attack the two with {{m|Leech Seed}}, which the two paid no attention to. Shauntal then has her {{p|Jellicent}} attack Tornadus with {{m|Energy Ball}} and Thundurus with {{m|Shadow Ball}}. This only further enrages the two Pokémon and the two clash, forming a twister of wind and lightning. Soon after, {{p|Landorus}} appears to stop the two, as they are destroying crops in their battle, and easily restrains them. While departing into the sky, Tornadus was caught alongside Thundurus and Landorus by [[Giallo]].

Tornadus was [[PS496|later]] given to the [[Shadow Triad]] alongside Thundurus and Landorus to use in their battle against the [[Unova]] [[Gym Leaders]] at the [[Nacrene Museum]] to try to get the [[Dragon Stones|Dark Stone]]. The trio immediately gains an upper hand, creating a tornado of wind, lightning, and rocks. The Shadow Triad [[PS497|then]] have the trio attempt to destroy the entrance to the museum's basement where the [[Tao trio (Adventures)|Dark Stone]] is located, but they are unable to break through. The Forces of Nature then depart to [[N's Castle]] with the Shadow Triad, carrying the defeated Gym Leaders in a sphere of wind and lightning.

Tornadus was [[PS519|later]] given to [[Colress]] in order to figure out how to change Tornadus between his {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Forces of Nature|Incarnate and Therian Formes}}. In ''[[PS520|Cold Hard Truth]]'', Colress, disguised as Hood Man, sends out Tornadus to fight against the [[Elite Four]] alongside Thundurus and Landorus to further collect data about his Therian Forme. The trio eventually flee in the middle of their battle, forcing the Elite Four to track them down. The Elite Four [[PS523|soon]] find the Forces of Nature and [[Marshal]] has [[Caitlin]] assist him with her {{p|Gothitelle}}'s {{m|Telekinesis}}, allowing Marshal and his {{p|Sawk}} to fight their airborne opponents. Shauntal quickly has her {{p|Golurk}} attack Tornadus with {{m|Heavy Slam}}, causing major damage to the Cyclone Pokémon. While watching the battle Hood Man discovers that mirrors are the key to changing Tornadus to his Therian Forme and that he still needs to find the correct [[Reveal Glass|mirror]]. Hood Man then notices that [[Ghetsis]] is in trouble and recalls the trio while going to assist him.

===={{chap|Black 2 & White 2}}====

Two [[PS532|years]] later, Tornadus appears before {{adv|Blake}} and {{adv|Whitley}} on {{rt|20|Unova}}, attacking the two [[Trainers]]. Tornadus changes into his Therian Forme with the help of the Reveal Glass, which had been obtained by [[Team Plasma]]. Blake has his {{TP|Blake|Dewott}} attack Tornadus with {{m|Razor Shell}}, which Tornadus easily dodges. Dewott then tries a combination attack of Razor Shell and {{m|Aqua Jet}}, which Tornadus evades before quickly retaliating with multiple Air Slashes. Recognizing the Cyclone Pokémon's strength, Blake sends out [[Keldemaru]] to help assist Dewott in the battle. Tornadus is quickly overwhelmed by the two Pokémon and their combination attacks of {{m|Sacred Sword}} and Razor Shell. Tornadus then notices Giallo, who was the Cyclone Pokémon's original target when coming to route 20. Tornadus quickly takes out Giallo's {{p|Krookodile}} and begins to escape with the [[Seven Sages|sage]]. To prevent Tornadus from escaping, Blake has Keldemaru attack with {{m|Ice Beam}}, followed by Dewott's Razor Shell, {{status|freeze|freezing}} Tornadus solid. With Tornadus frozen, the {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s retreat, returning Tornadus to his [[Poké Ball]].

Tornadus is a powerful {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, holding his own against other [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]] and [[Mythical Pokémon]] like {{p|Thundurus}} and [[Keldemaru]]. Tornadus is incredibly fast, using his speed to outmaneuver opponents and was mention by {{adv|Blake}} that his {{p|Genesect}}'s {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Genesect|High-Speed Flight Form}} was inferior to the Cyclone Pokémon's speed. Rough weather typically accompanies Tornadus and he is said to never stay in the same place for more than five minutes. He has a strong rivalry with Thundurus, as the two battle so often it is common knowledge that {{p|Landorus}} is constantly restraining them from fighting. Tornadus seems to have no allegiance, as he had no problem attacking [[Giallo]].

'''Team Plasma's Thundurus''' (Japanese: '''プラズマ団のボルトロス''' ''Plasma-dan's Voltolos'') was the first of the Forces of Nature to appear and was later caught by [[Team Plasma]].  

Prior to the start of the {{chap|Black & White}}, [[Elesa]] encountered Thundurus on her way to her grandmother's house on {{rt|7|Unova}}. Sometime after the encounter Elesa tried and failed to catch the Bolt Strike Pokémon.

Thundurus first appeared in ''[[PS484|Battle on a Roller Coaster]]'', where {{adv|Black}} encountered him in [[Nimbasa City]] outside the [[Nimbasa Gym|Gym]]. Black was taken outside the gym on a roller coaster car that was malfunctioning due to [[N's Zorua]] tampering with the controls. When Black noticed the Bolt Strike Pokémon, Thundurus struck Black with lightning and disappeared.

In ''[[PS490|A Stormy Time in the Battle Subway]]'', Thundurus encounters {{p|Tornadus}} near the [[Battle Subway]] train and begins to engage the Cyclone {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in battle. His lightning quickly stops the train's automatic stop mechanism, which causes {{adv|White}} and [[Shauntal]] to try to drive the two away. White has {{p|Deerling|Darlene}} attack the two with {{m|Leech Seed}}, which the two paid no attention to. Shauntal then has her {{p|Jellicent}} attack Thundurus with {{m|Shadow Ball}} and Tornadus with {{m|Energy Ball}}. This only further enrages the two Pokémon and the two clash, forming a twister of lightning and wind. Soon after, {{p|Landorus}} appears to stop the two, as they are destroying crops in their battle, and easily restrains them. While departing into the sky, Thundurus was caught alongside Tornadus and Landorus by [[Giallo]].

Thundurus was [[PS496|later]] given to the [[Shadow Triad]] alongside Tornadus and Landorus to use in their battle against the [[Unova[[ [[Gym Leaders]] at the [[Nacrene Museum]] to try to get the [[Dragon Stones|Dark Stone]]. The trio immediately gains an upper hand, creating a tornado of lightning, wind, and rocks. The Shadow Triad [[PS497|then]] have the trio attempt to destroy the entrance to the museum's basement where the [[Tao trio (Adventures)|Dark Stone]] is located, but they are unable to break through. The Forces of Nature then depart to [[N's Castle]] with the Shadow Triad, carrying the defeated Gym Leaders in a sphere of wind and lightning.

Thundurus was [[PS519|later]] given to [[Colress]] in order to figure out how to change Thundurus between his {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Forces of Nature|Incarnate and Therian Formes}}. In ''[[PS520|Cold Hard Truth]]'', Colress, disguised as Hood Man, sends out Thundurus to fight against the [[Elite Four]] alongside Tornadus and Landorus to further collect data about his Therian Forme. The trio eventually flee in the middle of their battle, forcing the Elite Four to track them down. The Elite Four [[PS523|soon]] find the Forces of Nature and [[Marshal]] has [[Caitlin]] assist him with her {{p|Gothitelle}}'s {{m|Telekinesis}}, allowing Marshal and his {{p|Sawk}} to fight their airborne opponents. Caitlin then decides to focus on Thundurus and has Gothitelle attack with {{m|Psyshock}}, dealing major damage to the Bolt Strike Pokémon. While watching the battle Hood Man discovers that mirrors are the key to changing Thundurus to his Therian Forme and that he still needs to find the correct [[Reveal Glass|mirror]]. Hood Man then notices that [[Ghetsis]] is in trouble and recalls the trio while going to assist him.

Thundurus is a powerful {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, holding his own against other [[Legendary Pokémon]] like {{p|Tornadus}}. Thundurus is incredibly fast, said to be able to fly from corner to corner of [[Unova]] in just one day. Rough weather typically accompanies Thundurus and he is said to never stay in the same place for more than five minutes. Thundurus is also very aggressive, attacking {{adv|Black}} without cause in his debut.

'''Team Plasma's Landorus''' (Japanese: '''プラズマ団のランドロス''' ''Plasma-dan's Landlos'') was the third of the Forces of Nature to appear and was later caught by [[Team Plasma]].  

Landorus first appeared in ''[[PS490|A Stormy Time in the Battle Subway]]'', stopping the fight between {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}} near the [[Battle Subway]] train, as the two are destroying crops in their battle. Landorus quickly restrains the two and begins to take them away. While departing into the sky, Landorus was caught alongside Tornadus and Thundurus by [[Giallo]].

Landorus was [[PS496|later]] given to the [[Shadow Triad]] alongside Tornadus and Thundurus to use in their battle against the [[Unova]] [[Gym Leaders]] at the [[Nacrene Museum]] to try to get the [[Dragon Stones|Dark Stone]]. The trio immediately gains an upper hand, creating a tornado of rocks, wind, and lightning. {{adv|Black}} attempts to stop them and [[Nite]] attacks Landorus from behind, kicking him in the back of the head. Landorus shows no signs of damage and begins to choke Nite while continuing his attack on the Gym Leaders. Nite then [[evolves]] into {{p|Emboar}} and breaks free from Landorus's grip. Despite Nite's new power, Landorus effortlessly flicks the Mega Fire Pig {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} aside with a swing from his tail. The Shadow Triad [[PS497|then]] have the trio attempt to destroy the entrance to the museum's basement where the [[Tao trio (Adventures)|Dark Stone]] is located, but they are unable to break through. The Forces of Nature then depart to [[N's Castle]] with the Shadow Triad, carrying the defeated Gym Leaders in a sphere of wind and lightning.

Landorus was [[PS519|later]] given to [[Colress]] in order to figure out how to change Landorus between his {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Forces of Nature|Incarnate and Therian Formes}}. In ''[[PS520|Cold Hard Truth]]'', Colress, disguised as Hood Man, sends out Landorus to fight against the [[Elite Four]] alongside Tornadus and Thundurus to further collect data about his Therian Forme. The trio eventually flee in the middle of their battle, forcing the Elite Four to track them down. The Elite Four [[PS523|soon]] find the Forces of Nature and [[Marshal]] has [[Caitlin]] assist him with her {{p|Gothitelle}}'s {{m|Telekinesis}}, allowing Marshal and his {{p|Sawk}} to fight their airborne opponents. Sawk then strikes Landorus with a powerful {{m|Karate Chop}}, followed by multiple kicks. While watching the battle Hood Man discovers that mirrors are the key to changing Landorus to his Therian Forme and that he still needs to find the correct [[Reveal Glass|mirror]]. Hood Man then notices that [[Ghetsis]] is in trouble and recalls the trio while going to assist him.

Landorus is a very powerful and serious {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, easily winning against other [[Legendary Pokémon]] like {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}}. He cares for the environment and is know for breaking up fights between Tornadus and Thundurus, often showing up to stop them from destroying crops. Landorus is also incredibly sturdy, easily taking [[Nite]]'s attack from behind, showing no signs of damage. Landorus is often seen as serious and annoyed when fighting weaker opponents and typically tries to end things quickly when battling.
