Near the end of the game, the neo Team Plasma's plan is revealed. They want to freeze Unova using their technology and the power of the legendary Pokemon, [[Kyurem]]. At the Giant Chasm, Gheetis orders Kyurem to freeze the player! Thankfully, N and his dragon ([[Zekrom]] in Black 2 and [[Reshiram]] in White 2) save the player in time. Ghetsis then uses the DNA Splicers that were stolen earlier on Kyurem, whose frozen wings shatter, revealing a set of energy asorbing node-like appendages! Kyurem then blasts N's dragon, sealing it back up in the Dark/Light Stone! Then under Gheetis' orders, Kyurem absorbs the stone, fusing the two dragons together to make an even stronger dragon, Black/White Kyurem! The player then defeats the dragon, seperating it back into two, N's dragon is given back to him, while Kyurem flees to re-gain it's strength. After a battle with Gheetis, he suffers a mental breakdown, and is taken away by the Shadow Traid.
