Is it impossible to receive the challenge key this way?

Question

Basically, I have the challenge key in my White 2 version, and I used the unova link system with my Black 2 game, which I restarted.

However, I only received the Easy mode key, Iceberg Key and the White Treehollow key, and challenge mode remains locked. Is there anyway I can send my Challenge key from White 2 to Black 2?

Answer 1

Heres a reason:

After the transfer of keys, you lose the Key the key that you had in one game, hence the term 'transfer' of Keys.

So, if at first, you transferred the Challenge Key from White 2 to Black 2, you lose that particular key in White 2. So when you utilized that key to start the Challenge Mode in Black 2, you use up the Key in that game. So now, after you have done that with the game, you have the Easy Mode Key and White Treehollow Key from White 2. But you don't have the Challenge Mode Key.

The reason is that the game Black 2 is designed to get the Key only when you defeat the Champion again.

EDIT: OK, as per your process then, the last line should be what you need to know. You can't transfer the Challenge Key to Black 2, because the only method if getting it is by re-defeating Iris.

Sorry for going round it so much, just thought it was important.

Hope I helped!

I never even managed to transfer the Challenge Key from W2 to B2? I never started Challenge mode in B2 before either.

Basically:
1. I beat B2 once and got the Challenge Key
2. I did a key swap between B2 and W2, and my W2 version unlocked Challenge Mode
3. I restarted B2 and did the key swap again, but the Challenge key did not transfer.
