The DNA Splicers (Japanese: いでんしのくさび Gene Wedge) is a Key Item introduced in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2. It can be used on Kyurem to fuse it with Reshiram or Zekrom into White Kyurem or Black Kyurem or to separate White Kyurem or Black Kyurem into its constituent Pokémon.

The process of fusing Kyurem and Reshiram or Zekrom is known as Absofusion (Japanese: 吸収合体 Absorb Union).

In the games

In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, the DNA Splicers are a key point in Team Plasma's plans. Originally in Drayden's possession, they were stolen by the Shadow Triad after Team Plasma froze Opelucid City. They were then used by Ghetsis to transform Kyurem into Black Kyurem^B2/White Kyurem^W2.

In the anime

The DNA Splicers in Pokémon Generations

In the Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Animated Trailer

Though the DNA Splicers were never explicitly shown in the Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 Animated Trailer, it was implied to be the item the Shadow Triad had successfully stolen at the end of the trailer.

In Pokémon Generations

The DNA Splicers was featured in two Pokémon Generations episodes.

It first appeared in The Frozen World, in which it was revealed to be in Drayden's possession. Team Plasma needed the item to further their plans, and so several Team Plasma Grunts attacked Opelucid while Colress used the Plasma Frigate to freeze the entire city to allow Zinzolin to steal the DNA Splicers.

The item was seen again in The King Returns, in which Ghetsis was seen using it to fuse Kyurem with N's Reshiram.
