Old Pokemon General(RIP)

[May]

I hope I will be able to complete my Pokedex this time. I came very close on Pokemon white but was unable to obtain Shaymin, Darkrai, Meloetta, Keldeo and Genesect and had no one to trade evolve Pokemon with...
Maybe there will be people on this forum who can help me (I only hope to Pokedex those event Pokemon, not keep them... as I can use the GTS for that... I can offer pokedexing for any not on the list in return) I would still be interested right now if someone could help me get them on Pokemon White.

When I found I about the changing of the clothes and hair, I almost had a heart attack.

That would 100% break and would be even worse than just having the 2DS itself.

I agree with this, but the cost may be that you can't play it anymore.

Still worth it.

Well, that Pokemon announcement was a waste of time for anyone outside the US...
http://www.officialnintendomagazine...uncement-is-a-gotta-catch-em-all-competition/
^It's basically a competition for US citizens, in which you have to find secret codes and input them on this website: https://pokemon.promo.eprize.com/hunt/:b=chrome/
From these codes you get special digital prizes.
The entry code is:

Spoiler

XY1012

I'm going to see what happens if a non-US citizen attempts to enter.

EDIT: I managed to enter even though I'm outside the US, I can access the digital prizes and it seems with each correct code you also get entered into a sweepstake. If I somehow win a sweepstake I may need the help of an American TBT user to get my prize
The sweepstake prizes are shown on the main screen.

Spoiler: The Prizes

A 3DS XL, a copy of Y, a copy of X, Chespin plushie, Froakie Plushie, Fennekin Plushie, Pikachu Plushie, A strategy guide (This one isn't very clear) and some TCG packs!

Where do you even find the other codes?

 

[Colour Bandit]

Where do you even find the other codes?

Someone has made a list on PokeJungle with some of them- apparently the codes are easy to guess so people have managed to unlock prizes which shouldn't have been unlocked yet... Other people have released the digital prize URLs so you don't even have to find the code, but going that way means you aren't entered into the sweepstakes.

I just used all the discovered/guessed codes- since I'm outside the US the sweepstakes don't really matter to me, I just wanted the manga downloads. I'm missing one code (Xerneas) which apparently no-one has got yet...

(I seem to be missing volume 4 of the manga, I've got volumes 1, 2, 3 and 5...)

Well I have an US VPN, so as long as they don?t send you anything I can use it.
Well I hope that I can get an American to send me the prize if I win one lol.

This is the first pokemon game where I?m gonna try and complete the pokedex

This is the first pokemon game where I?m gonna try and complete the pokedex

The closest I got to 'completing' the Pokedex was in D/P when I saw all the Pokemon in the regional dex... I've never caught every Pokemon So I'm hoping I'll at least get all the regional pokemon!

I'm also hoping I'll finally catch a shiny Pokemon... Red Gyarados from S/G/C/HG/SS doesn't count... All my shinies I've got from trades...

 

[ForgottenT]

Found these codes here.

X5H8 for Fennekin

Hit the code limit somehow so my last three Pokeballs will never open up.

I?ve gotten 2 shinies through the years.
I got a shiny Lickytung in pokemon silver, and a shiny Smeargle, in pokemon Emerald, my friend got a shiny Zubat, and Cresselia.
what are the chances that a legendary are shiny? lol.

 

[Colour Bandit]

If anyone wants the TCG codes I have two I will never use, PM me if you want them (First come first serve basis)

From the Pokejungle list it appears that you can't get the fourth manga volume... Though after reading the first part I am debating buying the volumes... (I might try and follow the pokemon manga now!)

One of my friends has lent me her shiny Serperior so that I can breed a Snivy from it- it was her first shiny on her first pokemon game... I just have a feeling that if I ever catch a shiny it will be a Bidoof or something just as bad!

 

[Jinglefruit]

Is the code thing for like a whole magazine of manga? May have to try this. O:

On other topics, Black 2 I completed the pokedex for the first time ever. Habitat list motivated me to complete the regional dex, and then I imported as much as I could from past games and was only left with a few things to breed, 3 events to trade for and Illumise and Rhyhorn line. XP
I've also been pretty lucky with shinies on GTS and trading, got about 20 I think now (will have to check when home). Only one I found myself though was a shiny Lillipup in Black.

It's just a series of random chapters. They give you two chapters from volume 1, and one chapter from volumes 3 and 5.

Damn, oh ell, may enter for the sweepstakes anyway as I have places I could send prizes.

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

I entered, although I have low chances of the win. My mom doesn't know, so if I win, it will play out like this:

*mails arrives and all my stuff comes*
Mom: Why is all this stuff here?
Me: Oh, that's mine.
Mom: Did you order it?
Me: No. I entered a Pokemon sweepstakes.
*Mom flies into a rage*

So, yeah.

Whaaaaaat? Why would your mom get mad? If you win, you win. It's not like she had to spend anything.

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

No, because I didn't tell her. I'll probably ask then move the email out of the trash in her Inbox if she agrees.

 

[Officer Berri]

If you're at an age where you still need a parents' permission to take part in a sweepstakes where you'll need to give out personal information, you really shouldn't be going behind their back taking part in a sweepstakes where you'll need to give out personal information.

Just saying.

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

Yes, and I'll probably say "yeah actually send this stuff to ____". I didn't know it was a sweepstakes until after I entered the code so I'll just un-sub from it.
