Black City

If you are playing Pokémon Black, you can access Black City after beating the game. The amount of time that it took you to reach Black City affects how many people there are in the city. The number of people in Black City will affect what items are available for sale in the market. More people in the city will cause rare items to show up for sale. Up to 12 of the people in the city will be trainers that you can fight once a day.

Residents of Black City

To add residents to Black City, you must visit White Forest in another player's game via the Entralink.

The NPCs of Black City will only stick around if you visit and battle them. They each have a secret point value, and if that value reaches 0, that NPC will leave. Each time you go into Black City, you increase all the NPCs' points by 3. Each time you battle an NPC, his/her points go up by 10.

Black City Market

The items available in the market depend on how many NPCs there are in town. You can get 10,000 Pokédollars for every 10 trainers you defeat in the city.
