Like you do in Gen 4. I haven't heard of anyone doing this. I assume it's possible.

I can try this. Which consoles?
It's only possible on a 3ds or it's variations
I assume you mean altering the dns so you can receive old event Pokemon from mystery gift?
Yeah..
It's possible to do for Gen 5 I've done it myself to get some event mons and items
Through the title screen of B2W2 or the 3ds menu?
In your internet settings on your 3ds change your current dns to your desired one then simply search for a mystery gift
Im talking about doing it through the title screen

The only way to perform the DNS glitch in Gen V games is to select the Mystery Gift option via the title screen instead of selecting "Continue Game". The DNS needs to be changed through the 3DS's System Settings, but the actual exploit is performed through the game itself.

Not sure if you mean to imply this is only possible on 3DS, but Gen 5 will let you info the wifi config page via its main menu if it runs on an original DS or DS Lite.
I was addressing the comment that asked about the "3DS or its variations", but that may not have been entirely clear. Thanks for the clarification.
I think we should be explicit:
DS: yes
DSi: no (game asks you to use system settings)
3DS: no (ditto)
