Pokédex 3D Pro and Pokémon Dream Radar dated outside Japan
Pokemon fans rejoice, Nintendo has confirmed that the two downloadable Pokemon eShop titles that they announced for Japan earlier in the year will be coming to North America, Europe and no doubt Australia. Not that we wouldn’t think Nintendo would skip releasing something Pokemon.
Nintendo says that Pokémon Dream Radar and Pokédex 3D Pro will be out later this year before the release of Pokemon Black and White 2 on the Nintendo DS.
Pokemon Dream Radar is much like Face Raiders but with Pokemon. Once you’ve caught them in the augmented reality you can transfer them to Pokemon Black and White 2. Pokedex 3D Pro, well, it’s the pro version of the free Pokedex 3D. It comes with all 600+ Pokemon unlocked with their stats able to be viewed easily.
So no certain date yet, but at least they’re coming.

Pokémon Dream Radar lets players use several different features of the Nintendo 3DS system, including the Nintendo 3DS camera, motion control and augmented-reality technology, to catch Pokémon by moving the Nintendo 3DS to discover hidden Pokémon. Players can catch the Pokémon by moving the Nintendo 3DS to aim and shoot beams at them.
