    I found this while browsing earlier and had to share it. All credit goes to the person who found out about this trick. Hope this helps!

    "Hey, I had to share this! In the Nimbasa City sports arenas every day, you can fight a few random trainers that vary and that give you random prizes. I met a male Pokémon Breeder (they wear a red bandana), and after our battle he gave me a Rare Candy. Good enough. Then I remembered that in Black 2 / White 2, the Breeders will fight you every time you go past them . . .

    Sure enough, if you leave the field, but NOT the building, just jump right back in, the Breeder will fight you again, and give you another Rare Candy. And another, and another! I wasn't ready for this, I fought until all my Pokémon had used up all their attacks, and got about 45 Rare Candy the first time.

    It happened again with a female Pokémon Breeder (they are the ones that wear a green visor hat). This time I'm ready; using all the tricks in my bag, I am keeping my Pokémon fighting by using Ethers, Elixers, PP up and PP Max, even swapping out non-attack moves using TMs. Then when they are exhausted, they will keep fighting with Struggle, and you can keep them going with Revives and Potions and Lemonade and Moo Moo Milk and Berries and Herbs . . .

    My latest record is 125 Rare Candy before I ran out of moves and Pokémon! It may sound boring and repetitive fighting the same trainer over and over, but there is an element of creativity and fun in getting the most out of your team.

    Good luck finding a Pokémon Breeder in the arena, and if they are giving out Rare Candy, its like a free candy machine."

    As confirmed by Doima, you no longer need to worry about leaving the sport's arena building as the breeders seem to stay in the arena until the end of the day.

    This is awesome, great idea without hacking/cheating. Nice work.

    Huh. Now I knew that there were sometimes breeders that had rare candies in there, but I always figured they acted as a one-time battle like all the rest, that the typical breeder behavior didn't apply to the ones in there. That's cool. I'll remember it if I ever play my Black 2 again.

    This is interesting! I try to make it a point to never use rare candies, but I will most definitely have to let my cousin know, about this.

    All my B2 Pokémon are at level 84 or above (and they can not take another EV), so I doubt it will take very long to get them to level 100.

    Even though the first post says you have to leave the field and not the building, going on about how you need to use Ethers and whatnot to keep going, I actually found that leaving the building doesn't matter. Just today I did the Nimbasa battles, left, healed at a Pokémon center, went to my Join Avanue, and then was still able to battle the breeder that is there today as many times as I want. So basically, as long as there is a breeder in there, you can get unlimited Rare Candies that day for as long as you can put up with tedious 6 on 6 easy battles.

    Thanks for letting me know about that! I'll be sure to edit it into the first post.
