Note: This requires a second DS and copy of Pokemon Blask or White. Using the C-Gear's Infrared trade function combined with a second DS and game, you can pull out various Pokemon from your team between each battle with the Elite Four. As you can trade from your boxes, you can switch your teams up and simultaneously heal them if you are having trouble with the Elite Four. With this same method, you can train more than six Pokemon with each visit as well. -Zeron
You gain experience at the Day Care based on the amount of steps you take, one step for each point of experience. (It averages about 2 EXP per second, 120 EXP per minute, 7200 EXP per hour etc.). Bring a lot of cash when you pick up your Pokemon! Note: The moves that a Pokemon learns whilst in the Day-Care Centre will be taught to them, replacing random moves as the Day-Care Lady sees fit.
1.Drop two of your Pokemon off at the Day Care on Route 3.
2.Go to the Battle Subway in Nimbasa City.
3.Position your character in the middle of the round path that encircles the column in the Subway.

5.Leave your DS On for a long time (Leave your DS Charger plugged in) while your character technically takes many steps.
6.Return to the Day-Care Lady for your Pokemon.

To unlock the relocator on the Main Menu, head to the second floor of the building with the scientist requesting a password in Castelia City. Talking to him lets you say a phrase. Input Everyone Happy and then Simple Connection and you will be allowed to use the Relocator at the main menu after you save your game. Use this to transfer the Legendary Trio (Raikou, Suicune and Entei) and Celebi to Black or White.
Note from Jose: The Relocator is compeltely different from the Pokemon Transfer which you obtain after the first encounter with the Elite Four. The Relocator only works with the Pokemon given out during the special (Gamestop) promotion.

In previous games, when you obtain a Nugget, you can take it to the PokeMart and sell it for $5000. The same is true in Pokemon Black and White, however there is a Gentleman in Icirrus City who will pay twice as much for it. He's an Ore collector who hangs out to the right of the Nurse's station in the Pokemon Center there. He also takes Stardust, Star Pieces, and Evolution Stones. So if you come across any of these high-priced sellables, save them for the crazy Ore collector and double your money!

You must first have the National Dex. You must also have Thundurus and Tornadus in your party. Thundurus is from Pokemon Black and Tornadus from White so expect to trade for one of them.
Once you have both Tornadus and Thundurus in your party, head to the Abundant Shrine off of Route 14 and click on the shrine. Landorus will fly down to fight you. It is level 70 and has a low catch rate so be prepared with plenty of high level pokemon, pokeballs and medicines.
There are some TM's that you might want to consider teaching your Pokemon before you transfer them over into the next generation. These are the 4th Generation TMs that will be replaced with a different move in the 5th generation. Therefore you should think about teaching a Pokemon that move before you transfer it. Probably one of the most notable TM changes is the replacement of Stealth Rock, so if you want a good Stealth Rocking Pokemon you better teach it in HeartGold, Soulsilver, Pearl, Diamond, or Platinum before you transfer it to Black or White.

Note: This only works for the few Pokemon that you have a choice to battle, in other words, Pokemon that you have to interact with to battle them. An example would be fighting Victini.
Go up to the Pokemon, save the game, battle it and capture it. Look at the nature of the Pokemon to see if it's the nature you want. If it is, great, but if it isn't you can turn the game off, turn it back on, and resume at the last save point, which would be before you battled the Pokemon. Once you battle the Pokemon again it will have a different nature. Doing this will allow you to battle and capture it over and over until you get the right nature.

Look for shaking patches of tall grass! The Pokemon Audino is hiding there and if you walk over the spot you'll enter a battle with it. This is the only way to find this particular Pokemon. Audino is a Normal type Pokemon that learns many healing moves (like Chansey). Defeating Audino also gives a lot of Experience Points, making it worth your time to find and battle them.
Try using Repel in the grass to make finding the shaking patches much easier to find -- no random battles will prevent you from finding Audino.

Hydreigon is a Dark/Dragon pokemon with high special attack. The only way to have it learn Dark Pulse for the S.T.A.B. bonus is to teach Dark Pulse via TM to a male Ekans, Arbok, or Seviper in Pokemon D/P/Pl/HG/SS and breed it with a female Deino, Zweilous, or Hydeigon. This is because TM79 which was formerly Dark Pulse was changed to Frost Breath in Black and White.
