It just says the file is unusable.. idk how to get it to open
Hey Cory, please note that we are not sharing rom files. After downloading this file, you have to patch it to Black 2 rom. You can check this guide on How to Patch NDS ROMS With XDelta to Play DS ROM Hacks.
Is there any advice on how to play it as every emulator Iโve used doesnโt seem to recognise it as a file?
Please know that this is not DS file, but rather patch file. After downloading you have to patch it to Pokemon Black 2 rom. Sorry, we donโt share rom files here.
Hey guys, did anyone ever sold the Team Shadow guys blocking the route to Nโs Castle after you get into the Hall of fame?
Literally cannot figure out whatโs going on with them and they wonโt move or respond. Blocking route through the 2nd cave to the ruined castle
My pokemon canโt gain exp
Hey Marcus, Moon Black 2 is outdated and hasnโt been updated since 2020. I recommend checking Pokemon rom hacks, and I recommend checking our recommendations of best Pokemon rom hacks for 2024.
Game running great but not recieving any exp! is there a fix for this?
I caught a sandile in the route where the relic castle is and my game froze
Did you use cheats? Or if not, then most likely it is a bug in the game.

Discord: drogonlord305

To anyone who downloads this in the futureโฆ you need a clean black 2 rom to patch this onto. Use xdelta file patcher.

Please respond to this idk what to do
Does anyone have a patched rom link? I cant patch it..
Sorry Choom, but we donโt share patched roms here, and we do not allow anyone to share these kinds of files.

Hi Zen, we donโt have yet but weโll try to find them as best as we could, stay tuned.
Hi, just after beating league 4 and all region champion, the game screen went black, I can hear the game music fine but canโt see anything, and despite save/save status, the result is the same, I beat the champion, he takes me to the Hall of Fame, puts my pokemon in the scanner and then itโs black
Hi Azuriel, did you enter the Hall of Fame having a Fairy-type Pokemon in your party? That could be the reason why it went black.
Yeah no this doesnt work at all, defeated elite 4 and ash 3 times with no fairy types still glitches and ends up with a blackscreen, please find a solution soon, I really wanna experience the post game of this rom
yeah same tho
it doesnt show up on my ds when i load it in the r4 card

Hi Oersted, thanks for being here. Iโm not sure what you mean by taking down the rom link, we are already linking our download button to your official download link since before. Additionally, we do not give rom files here. Thanks for giving us your Discord server link, just finished joining. You can also find ours here https://discord.com/invite/RHEZVCWvzb

2.i tried to play the ROM hack in deSmuME and it says rom header is invalid??
how to fix
Make sure the file format is in .nds after patching it and try again.

Hello Pokรฉmon coders I wonder if there are cheat codes for this game if yes then please send me the link of it, I use desmume pc or can I use black 2 cheats on this
Hi Bitwarden, thanks for coming here and leaving a comment. We donโt have an official cheat page at the moment, but you could try using our cheats for Pokemon Black 2 as this game is based on Black 2. I would love to hear your feedback after trying the cheat and hope my answer helps.
Hello, I have downloaded the given file, but when I want to patch it says that the file I want to patch must be in .ips format, but the file I downloaded is in .7z format, what should I do? Sorry if this question shouldnโt need to be asked
Extract the file using Rar or 7Zip
I just want to know if I can play it on my phone and if so what the steps are, I really wanna play this and see how it works, but I canโt as of now
This is a DS rom hack, so yes, you can play this on your phone. See this guide we created on the Best Nintendo DS Emulators for Android. You need a Pokemon Black 2 rom since this game is based on Black 2. Patch that Black 2 ROM with the downloaded file (The downloaded file comes with patching instructions). Hope this helps.

Yes you can, use Joiplay to play this game on Android.

Hey James, just want you to know that Joiplay is for RPG Maker XP games only and not for DS. You need Drastic or Free DS Emulator โ For Android to run the game.

Hey, ive seen some comments about this and im confused about something. is the game finished? (by finished i mean is the elite four accessible in this game) because I dont want to randomly be stopped while playing. thanks!
Hey tsukr, the game is considered completed and the team behind Moon Black 2 continuously pushing updates and it is now in Beta 4. So you can expect updates on this game. You canโt go wrong playing this game.

You can use cheats if you use a DS emulator such as desmume.
how to randomize this
We donโt have information about it yet.
Really good game, as a recommendation and critic, the new pokemon have stats that donยดt really match with their original ones. I had a Lycanroc with Kricketot stats, so naturally I must let him in the box, because at some point he just became too weak for the adventure.
well the game always crash when i recieve the xtransceiver call after beating the first gym, i already tried โdisable 3D edge markingโ code and i play in nds lite.
Anybody got solution for this?
I have this same bug too. but what I did was disable the sound and enelabled fast foward option before the call and it worked. I can now contine playing
Is this game completed? Because it looks like something I could spend countless hours on. Just wanna make sure I donโt have a repeat of Red Rocket
No, itโs not yet completed.
In what way is it not completed? Do you mean as in there are still many post game content yet to be added or can you not challenge the Elite 4 and become Champion as of now? Because Iโm cool with games where you can become champion already.
I spoke to soon sorry. The game great. Im getting the hang of it. ๐คฃ

As far as I know, you need a Black 2 rom for patching.
I am an android user. So which app should I use to patch it?
You need a computer to patch this game. There are Android apps that proclaim they can do the job but I donโt recommend using them.
On Android you can use the app called uni patcher
Cool, I will look at this app for sure. Hope this works for everyone.
Iโve tried to use uni patcher with a black 2 Rom but it says itโs not compatible so do I need a new Rom if so which one is suggested
what is a good patcher for PC
ANDROID User
