Pokémon world locations

Twist Mountain (Japanese: ネジ山 Spiral Mountain) is a location in Pokémon Black and White and Pokémon Black 2 and White 2. It is in the Unova region to the north of Route 7 and its eastern terminus is in Icirrus City. In Black 2 and White 2, this location is unaccessible before the Elite Four is defeated, due to the entrance at Route 7 being blocked by Marshal.

Geography

Twist Mountain bears a resemblance to a mine and has a complex network of caves. The mountain becomes filled with snow in winter, providing easier travel to different areas but also blocking off some tunnels. There is also a vending machine.

The Ice Rock is located in the lowest floor of the mountain, accessible from the central construction site. If an Eevee is leveled up on this floor, it will evolve into Glaceon. Located in the tunnel immediately before the Ice Rock is a Worker who will give the player a random Fossil of the Kanto, Hoenn, or Sinnoh regions once a day after receiving the National Pokédex. The type of Fossil can be changed by soft resetting, similar to a Pokémon outbreak.

In Black 2 and White 2, Regigigas can be found here in the room to the north of the Ice Rock. Just like in the Snowpoint Temple in Sinnoh, Regigigas will not awaken unless the legendary golemsRegice, Regirock and Registeel—are in the player's party.

Truck Quiz (TruQ)

In Black 2 and White 2, a miner near the entrance to Icirrus City will quiz the player, asking one question each day. Five questions must be answered correctly to get a medal. If the player gets a question wrong, they must wait until the next day to try again.

Questions asked:

Question Answer
Which place is famous for an old rusty crane truck? Virbank City
Trucks on Route 4 come in three different colors: red, blue, and...what? Yellow
Which question is this? Third question
Which Gym has a yellow drill car? Driftveil City Gym
How many bulldozers are there in Twist Mountain? Two


Twist Mountain ahead.
Watch out for wild Pokémon.
