The downtime is due to a period of scheduled maintenance, in which a new Dream World area will be made available. The area, Cold Hole, will be accessible starting June 23, which is the same day that Pokémon Black 2 and Pokémon White 2 are released in Japan.

While the service is unavailable, any tucked-in Pokémon cannot be woken up. Players are also unable to access the Dream World, use Game Sync, or use any other Pokémon Global Link features.
