The second game in the first Layton trilogy, and the one with the best puzzles, but the most nonsensical plot. It was the first game in the series to get multi-language voice acting in Europe, where it was tremendously successful.
Like the first game, the game later got a re-release in Japan called the "Friendly Version" (which has furigana over kanji for little kids) with all of the 52 Wi-Fi puzzles unlocked by default.

Unused Puzzles
Unused Wifi-Puzzle
There are only 34 puzzles localized out of the 52 Wi-Fi puzzles from the JP version. One of the translated puzzles is never triggered normally, and thus remains unused: it is “Different Cats”, which has B as an answer and consists of a black model and five inverted-color mirrored patterns we must choose from. The rest of the puzzles have been mostly completely removed.
Puzzles with Unused Alternate Translation
Two puzzles from the JP version were replaced with different puzzles in the US version. However, the original puzzles still exist in the US version, fully translated but unused. They're called Bird in a Hole (JP Puzzle 56) and Boxes of Treats (JP Puzzle 75).
Unused Graphics
NPCs
Placeholder NPC graphics.
Puzzle Graphics
Graphics from unused puzzle types.
The Japanese text reads "Touch the cup you want to move!"
Subscreens
Unfinished drawings of subscreen graphics.
Maps
Unfinished/early versions of map sections. The top image could possibly be a prototype for the Folsense Plaza map.
Backgrounds
A crudely drawn entrance.
Flora Face
An unused face sprite of Flora giving a rather sinister smile. It's likely this would have been used in Chapter 6 when the 'Flora' that Layton and Luke are traveling with is revealed to actually be Don Paolo in disguise. This graphic is also present in the EXHD for Mobile version.
Separate Flora Audio
During Don Paolo's aforementioned big reveal in Chapter 6, there are two lines spoken with both his and Flora's voices overlapping. There is another file, though, which is only Flora's voice. The lines are kept in the same audio file unlike the ones used for the actual reveal.
Flora Only | Flora & Don Paolo |

The single only purpose for this audio is for the 'Voices' bonus feature.
