Keldeo in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2: locations, stats and moves

Generation V identity and base stats

Keldeo is Unova #298 and National #647. Its Black 2/White 2 typing is Water / Fighting. These figures describe its standard Generation V form on the original Nintendo DS cartridges. Later Fairy typing and later stat increases are excluded.

The picture shows the standard Generation V form; gender, seasonal or alternate battle forms may look different.

Where to obtain it in Black 2 and White 2

Historical distribution or a compatible trade is required. There is no ordinary wild Keldeo in the sequels. Resolute Form changes appearance after the Secret Sword event and does not change these base stats.

No direct Black 2/White 2 encounter is recorded in this dataset. Use its family below to plan evolution or breeding, or obtain a compatible external specimen where required. An absent row is not proof that every possible acquisition route is unavailable.

Evolution family and Generation V requirements

Keldeo has no evolution within the Black 2/White 2 regional roster. Form changes are separate from evolution; evolutions added in later generations do not occur on these cartridges.

Forms and collection requirements

Abilities, breeding and training reference

A Hidden Ability slot does not guarantee an ordinary wild specimen. Hidden Grottos, specific sequel gifts, historical Dream World / Dream Radar access and external specimens have different requirements. Some Generation V slots, including the Unova starter Hidden Abilities and Litwick-line Shadow Tag, were never officially released in that generation.

The Route 3 Day Care is reached after the Hall of Fame in the sequels. Undiscovered species cannot produce Eggs. Baby forms that require an incense need the correct held item on a parent; breeding an evolved parent does not always yield its earliest Pokédex stage.

Black 2 and White 2 level-up moves

Every row is filtered to the Black 2/White 2 version group. Level 1 entries include starting or reminder moves; a later caught specimen need not know every listed move. Evolution timing changes which form learns a move. The Move Reminder charges a Heart Scale.

Compatible TMs and HMs

Compatibility uses Black 2/White 2 learnset records. Machine numbers and move data match Generation V, while acquisition locations must come from the sequel guide. Sequel TM95 is obtainable; the original BW Lock Capsule restriction does not apply. HMs need the Move Deleter to be removed.

Egg moves and sequel Move Tutors

No Black 2/White 2 Egg moves are recorded for this form.

Recorded Black 2/White 2 tutor compatibility: Aqua Tail, Bounce, Covet, Endeavor, Helping Hand, Icy Wind, Last Resort, Secret Sword, Sleep Talk, Snore, Superpower.

Tutor compatibility does not mean every move is taught by a shard tutor. Starter ultimate moves, pledge moves and species-specific services have their own conditions.
