Damon plans to trap Victini and harness its power, and as that plan gets under way, the entire town of Eindoak faces disaster! Can Ash use the courage of truth to convince the Legendary Pokémon Reshiram to to help stop Damon? Can they rescue Victini? The greatest adventure in Pokémon history approaches!</i>

The movie begins with the world of Pokémon opening, showing the [[Unova]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} populating the land, seas and skies. The screen moves towards [[Ash's Pikachu]], who starts running, powers up an {{m|Electro Ball}}, and then fires it—at a {{p|Throh}} in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', or a {{p|Sawk}} in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''. Pikachu then runs to Ash. The trio reaches a fork in the road; {{an|Cilan}} looks at his map and tells the group to go left in Black—Victini and Reshiram, or right in White—Victini and Zekrom.

At that moment, a dust storm appears in the desert, and heads towards the village. A herd of {{p|Bouffalant}} are startled by this, and they begin to stampede towards the village. Damon goes to check out the disaster and holds up his hand, cueing the appearance of {{mov|Reshiram|Reshiram|14}}. Damon then climbs on Reshiram's back and orders it to destroy the dust storm, which it does with power and ease. Damon then asks the townspeople, who are shocked by the [[legendary Pokémon]]'s appearance, to give him another chance.

In ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', the scene instead shows Damon and his {{p|Gothitelle}} visiting a town on a frozen tundra. He discusses the matter of the [[Kingdom of the Vale]]'s revival with a resident there, but is again dismissed. He refuses to leave, asking to see [[Glacine]], the village's chief. She and her son [[Luis]] are on a cliff working to find herbs with his {{p|Lillipup}}'s help. Below, on an ice shelf, a group of {{p|Beartic}} become agitated when a giant iceberg collides with the ice. The cliff fractures, causing Luis to fall; then, as his mother and the first resident are trying to rescue him, the ice they are standing upon breaks off, stranding all of them in the path of the iceberg. Damon's Gothitelle saves Luis's Lillipup from falling into the water, and then Damon himself appears with {{mov|Zekrom|Zekrom|14}} to destroy the iceberg. Damon and Zekrom reiterate their proposal, and, awed by the display, Glacine and her village reconsider.

Cilan explains that the castle is known as the "[[Sword of the Vale]]", and is said in legend to have flown to its current location from a valley far away. While exploring the castle, Ash, Iris and Cilan share some macarons among themselves, but an invisible Victini keeps stealing Ash's macarons, much to his disbelief. The group hears fireworks outside, which causes Victini to choke on a macaron as the group realizes they must hurry to the town's battle tournament. In the ruckus, Ash runs into the invisible Victini—this confuses him for a moment, but he brushes it off. The group encounters a relatively plain-clothed Damon, who introduces himself as the castle's caretaker and offers to escort them to the town, which they accept.

In the town square, the group meets a woman named [[Juanita]], who runs a Victini-themed souvenir stand with her {{p|Golurk}} (which is {{Shiny}} in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''). The town's mayor, [[Mannes]], gives a speech to the townspeople congratulating them for the bountiful harvest they have collected. Mannes sends his {{p|Klink}}, {{p|Klang}} and {{p|Klinklang}} into a large music machine, starting the festival. He explains the tournament's rules: each competitor has been given a necklace and must challenge other competitors throughout the town, with losing Trainers surrendering their necklaces until the winner emerges.  

Suspicious that Victini was the one who stole the macarons, Ash uses one to bait it out. It appears, and Ash excitedly tries to befriend it. Victini is initially receptive and playful, but becomes alarmed as Ash swings it around enthusiastically, leaving the Pokémon of the group to coax Victini back to them. As the party travels through town, Victini hesitates in the shadow of giant pillars. Ash tries to force Victini forward, but Victini gets clobbered by a magical barrier around the castle area, delineated by the pillars and preventing Victini's escape. Upset, Victini flees back towards the castle. Later, while looking for Victini with Juanita and Carlita, they run into Mannes and Damon. It is revealed that Damon is Juanita's son and Carlita's older brother. He has been traveling and has not contacted Juanita in some time, which she reprimands him for. Carlita attempts to cheer him by telling him about Victini's appearance, but he says he already knew.

At Mannes's home, Victini is found leading a group of other Pokémon. Inside, Mannes relays the legend of the tribe now known as the People of the Vale: one thousand years ago, they were a prosperous people who lived in a place called the Kingdom of the Vale, in a valley where the Sword of the Vale originally resided. They used a power in the earth called the [[Dragon Force]] to enrich their land, and all was well. However, one day, the twin sons of the [[King of the People of the Vale|king]]—the Hero of Truth, who controlled Reshiram, and the Hero of Ideals, who controlled Zekrom—began a war over their beliefs. Reshiram and Zekrom battled and drained each other's strength, and then turned into orbs called [[Dragon Stones]]. The kingdom was devastated, and the Dragon Force corrupted and chaotic, ravaging the earth instead of healing it. Desperate, the king asked Victini to lend him its power, and he created the Pillars of Protection and their barrier to control the flow of that power. Using this system, the king flew the Sword of the Vale, with all of the townspeople inside, out of the Kingdom of the Vale to a nearby mountaintop. There, the castle calmed the flow of the Dragon Force. However, soon after the castle landed, the king died, while the Pillars of Protection remained. The two regretful princes hid the Dragon Stones deep within the caverns of the Sword of the Vale.

While watching Ash and his friends play with Victini, Damon informs his mother that her dream—that the People of the Vale could one day live again in the Kingdom of the Vale, as relayed in a flashback—can now come true. He intends to borrow Victini's power just as the king did, and return the Sword of the Vale to its rightful place. Inside, without Ash and his friends, Damon relays his journeys over the past three years. Damon visited the scattered tribal settlements of the People of the Vale to try to find support for his dream to reclaim the land that was the Kingdom of the Vale. He was always rebuffed, until one day he heard a voice emanating from the chambers under the Sword of the Vale. He and Mannes investigated, walking on a crystal path when, inexplicably, the two found themselves separated onto different paths. Damon went on alone to find his [[Legendary Pokémon|legendary]] {{t|dragon}}, and with it as his ally, he demonstrated the truth of the legend and his dragon's power by helping the leaders of the settlements. (Here, each version of the movie briefly shows Damon's dragon in the area from the opening of the other version—Zekrom assisting in the desert in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', and Reshiram in the tundra in ''White—Victini and Zekrom''.) The leaders agreed to help him—and as if on cue, they appear in Mannes's study in support of Damon's goal: the resurrection of the Kingdom of the Vale.

Victini dreams about its millennium trapped in the Pillars of Protection, witnessing the establishment and growth of Eindoak Town. The dream ends with the spirit of the king returning to apologize for the trap, then saying goodbye and fading away; Ash inexplicably experiences the dream as well, and is awoken. Victini takes Ash, Iris, and Cilan to a balcony, where it shows them the sunrise over an ocean shore; Ash comes to understand that Victini wishes to go to the shore, and promises to take it.

Mannes arrives, and meets Juanita, Carlita, Iris, and Cilan, having flown to the castle in a helicopter powered by his Klink, Klang, and Klinklang. He warns the group of the disaster on the surface, but by now they already know. Golurk returns to again fight Reshiram or Zekrom, but fails; however, the dragon's finishing blow is deflected by its opposite, which arrives with Ash riding on it. Ash jumps off at the courtyard of the castle, and then Zekrom and Reshiram engage in an epic battle in the sky. Inside the castle, Pikachu engages Reuniclus or Gothitelle.

During the credits, Damon and Juanita lead the People of the Vale in their reconstruction efforts. A single sprout is seen on the once-dead land in the Kingdom of the Vale, implying that the area can indeed be revived. While traveling, Ash, Iris, and Cilan get caught in a windstorm created by {{p|Tornadus}} (in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'') or a thunderstorm caused by {{p|Thundurus}} (in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''). They later travel through a town where the [[Team Rocket trio]] watches them from a café, with [[Peg]] passing by as well. Reshiram and Zekrom continue flying throughout the world, appearing in the skies in a variety of places.

==Differences between the films==

* The major difference between the films is that the main featured Pokémon in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'' is {{p|Zekrom}}, while {{p|Reshiram}} is the main Pokémon of ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''. Ash befriends the said Pokémon in those movies, with Damon using the other Pokémon.

* The World of Pokémon intro, while stylistically the same in both films, feature different Pokémon depending on the version.

* {{Ash}}, {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} come to a fork in the road at the beginning of both films. In ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', they take the left path, while in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', they take the right path.

* [[Damon]]'s appearance differs between the two films.

* Damon travels through the desert in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'' (with {{p|Bouffalant}} and the {{p|Blitzle}} evolutionary family appearing in the area), and an icy plain in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'' (where {{p|Beartic}} and {{p|Stoutland}} are in the area, the latter of which are used by the natives).

* Numerous scenes are altered in various ways between the two films. For example, the scene of Damon and Mannes talking at the ruins of the Kingdom of the Vale takes place during the day in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'' but at night in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''. Other scenes throughout the films are mirrored.

* In the credits, in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', {{p|Tornadus}} creates a windstorm that is encountered by Ash and friends; in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', {{p|Thundurus}} creates a thunderstorm that is encountered by Ash and friends.

A [[List of local Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation V#Eind Victini|special Victini]] was available to people who pre-ordered tickets to the film in Japan. This Victini knew the previously-unobtainable move {{m|V-create}}, as well as its other [[signature move]], {{m|Searing Shot}}, and the signature moves of {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}, {{m|Fusion Flare}} and {{m|Fusion Bolt}}.

[[List of local Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation V#Satoshi Zekrom|Zekrom]] was made available for players of Black and [[List of local Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation V#Satoshi Reshiram|Reshiram]] for players of White. Both will have the [[original Trainer]] サトシ ''[[Ash Ketchum|Satoshi]]''. Both dragons are at [[level]] 100 and know their [[signature move]]s, {{m|Blue Flare}} and {{m|Fusion Flare}}, and {{m|Bolt Strike}} and {{m|Fusion Bolt}}, respectively. Also, Reshiram knows {{m|Mist}} and Zekrom knows {{m|Haze}}, due to the Japanese names for these moves being しろいきり ''White Mist'' and くろいきり ''Black Mist'', respectively.

Players of Japanese or Korean Black games could obtain a [[List of Wi-Fi Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation V#Carlita's Hydreigon|Shiny Hydreigon]], based on [[Carlita]]'s, while players of Japanese or Korean White games could obtain a [[List of Wi-Fi Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation V#Juanita's Golurk|Shiny Golurk]], based on [[Juanita]]'s.

* Director Yuyama Kunihiko scouted locations in {{wp|France}} (including {{wp|Nice}}, {{wp|Gourdon, Alpes-Maritimes|Gourdon}}, {{wp|Tourrettes-sur-Loup}} and {{wp|Mont Saint-Michel}}) as part of pre-production for this movie.

* These are the first movies in which {{an|Brock}} does not appear; he made a cameo appearance in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.

* If both versions are counted together, these films debut 34 new Pokémon, more than any other film in the series.

* This is the second time when two Pokémon movies debuted within the same year in the US.

* This is the first movie in which no Generation II Pokémon appear.  

* Several short scenes were removed from the Cartoon Network airing of ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'' on December 10, 2011 to reduce the film's total running time. These included the appearance of {{p|Gothita}}, {{p|Gothorita}} and their Trainer, the entrances of several of the Pokémon in Mannes's garden such as {{p|Cottonee}}, a shot of Damon's face as he explains his plans for the People of the Vale, and Mannes's {{p|Klink}} and {{p|Klang}} installing themselves in the music machine.

* This is the first Pokémon movie to be available in its original Japanese version on Blu-ray, released in December 2011. It was beaten by the double film release of the English dubs of ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes]]'' and ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''.

* This is the only {{series|Best Wishes}} movie to feature a human antagonist.

 

* The opening song is ''[[Black and White (song)|Black and White Theme]]'', a full-length version of the dub's opening song. ''[[The Sky]]'' and ''[[The Voice]]'' are replaced as the ending songs by ''[[Follow Your Star|Follow Your Star (Ideals Mix)]]'' in ''White-Victini and Zekrom'', and ''Follow Your Star (Truth Mix)'' in ''Black-Victini and Reshiram''.

* The cut of ''White—Victini and Zekrom'' that aired on Cartoon Network on February 11, 2012 featured several edits to the credits at the beginning and end of the film: the opening credits were moved to the World of Pokémon segment, the ''Black and White Theme'' sequence was therefore textless, and the closing credits were played over a black screen without any of the clips normally featured.

*The trailer of this movie is seen in the preview after ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.
