Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Trying to avoid too many spoilers, but I suspect that it may be something to do with the encounter rate of shiny Pokemon. Anything is better then just a pixeled certificate though, so I'm all for whatever Gamefreak has planned. I thought that was for completing the entire Pokedex? Just completing the Unova dex gives you something different, I think. Not sure, though. And I agree. :I A pixel certificate is not worth over 600 pokemons.

Posted September 1, 2012 I think back in the GB days you could print it out with that official Nintendo printer thing, but that thing never sold too well. (paper for it was expensive.) I just hope something different is handed out when we reach over 1000 Mons. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 2, 2012 I was happy with the certificate, it's not like I wanted a real one to frame on my wall or anything. Mostly just the satisfaction of having completed the 'dex was good enough for me. Buuuuuut. The item rewards for completing the unovadex and the nationaldex in B/W2 look like they will be fun to use. (Especially the nationaldex one) October is coming fast, I need to get in a preorder for black 2 before too long. I'm kind of hoping they come out with some cool preorder bonus though. I still adore my giratina figure from preordering platinum Share this post Link to post
Posted September 4, 2012 Got Keldeo earlier than I expected I could. Yay! Now for Genesect, and I'm happy. Meloetta does not appeal to me. I'll still take her if she comes, but I prefer the bug. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) Completed my game again today after the data wiped. Miss my lvl 100 Giratina, Ho-oh and Serperior... Edited September 4, 2012 by rampaging wyvern Share this post Link to post
Posted September 4, 2012 I was so sad last summer I completely replayed pokemon silver (the gameboy/color version) and I went to look at my team (so I could recreate it exactly on soul silver) and my game had died D: Getting data wiped is like the worst feeling ever. So I was watching my brother play battle revolution and he's got this entire lv 100 legendaries ~ Mewtwo, Ho-Oh, Groudon, Kyogre, Dialga, Giratina. Not sure on the movesets other than awesome (balanced perfectly). I mostly see him annihilating opponents. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) I've never had my Pokemon games die. I'm absolutely terrified of it happening, though, mostly because I'm a gigantic derp with horrible luck and a knack for messing things up. :c Most of my important Pokemon have been moved to my White game, starting back from Emerald... I always move my important Pokemon to the newest Pokemon game I own at the first chance I get. Edited September 4, 2012 by Switch Share this post Link to post
Posted September 4, 2012 So far it's only my silver that has died and my crystal keeps resetting the save data (essentially dead). The internal battery for keeping the time is what really drains those cartridges and why my red version which is older still plays fine (or at least fine via N64 Stadium games) I'm mostly just keeping them for nostalgia. Otherwise they're total space wasters (I keep the boxes for them). My ruby version has had problems with the time settings but otherwise it saves fine and plays fine. I'm hoping they make a R/S/E remake soon though, then I don't have to worry about cartridges dieing. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) Well, it's September 6th, we should be learning what that 'digital prize pack' for the power bracket is before too long! -crosses fingers that there actually will be a Mew distribution- Edited September 6, 2012 by Dr. Paine Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) Well, it's September 6th, we should be learning what that 'digital prize pack' for the power bracket is before too long! -crosses fingers that there actually will be a Mew distribution- It's not quite the 6th yet where I live. D: I'm pretty excited for the prize pack, anyway. Hoping they'll release a Mew too. ;w; edit: It is now the 6th. Edited September 6, 2012 by Switch Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2012 everyone tries to take my celebi!!! they all try to steal it Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2012 Well, it's September 6th, we should be learning what that 'digital prize pack' for the power bracket is before too long! -crosses fingers that there actually will be a Mew distribution- For the power bracket when it ran they seemed to update a day later on everything. So I don't expect to see anything until at least tomorrow *bad advertisers * Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) Aaaand it seems to be out now. One wallpaper. One little animated gif. ... Couldn't even do a C-gear skin? I admit, while it was kind of silly to hope for a distribution since it never actually specified that, I didn't think it'd be that little. Ah well, here's hoping the shirt turns out nicely. Also, is there anyone interested in a shiny Golduck, shiny Ditto, shiny event Entei or lv 100 Kyogre? I'm looking for a shiny Pichu or Pikachu. I'm also willing to trade a couple of Celebi (and I will be very eager to trade if someone has an event Celebi that hasn't activated the Zorua bit in Castelia City). I'd also be willing to trade other pokes for a Ferrothorn and Zweilous, they're the only things I need to complete the Unova dex. Edited September 6, 2012 by Dr. Paine Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2012 ... Was it really worth it for Pokemon.com to go through ALL that effort for THAT? Someone should be fired. Nao. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2012 ... Was it really worth it for Pokemon.com to go through ALL that effort for THAT? Someone should be fired. Nao. I guess it was mostly for the t-shirt. Which I REALLY hope has a good design, because the wallpaper and gif are generic as hell, I've seen fan graphics significantly better than either of these. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2012 Yah totally lame D: They could have spruced up the background a little.... Disappointing because it seems whenever they have a poll like that in Japan it always follows with a distribution. *sigh* I think I'll just have to learn Japanese and go live in Japan so I can have cool pokemon stuff.

Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) Whaaaaat. I am just. So disappoint. :c Seriously? One gif and a wallpaper. After all that? ... I'm with Lady Nightfox. I'm moving to Japan. :I @Egould44: If you mean Black2 and White2, no. It's still taking place in Unova, but Unova will have changed a bit.

Posted September 7, 2012 Well, thanks to Daydreamer09, I'm only one pokemon away from completing the Unovadex! ... Then it's on to trying to see every other pokemon. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 7, 2012 Or level like crazy. I had an entire summer of doing nothing last year, got some pokemon time in, evolved lots. Bred lots (I have a very traumatized ditto somewhere) Still playing with the idea that I should cave in and accept a jirachi & deoxys from someone or at least trade and trade back just so I can have as complete of a pokedex as I can get without the last two.

Posted September 7, 2012 I still have that (probably hacked but non-screwy) shiny Jirachi you can borrow if you want, I'm not doing anything with it I don't like how shiny Jirachi looks... Share this post Link to post
Posted September 7, 2012 Welp, that contest was a bust. Already have a Mew from the GBA days, but I'm pretty sure people were hoping for an actual creature, and not some...lame pictures. Also, judging by that little blurb about the shirt, I guess we get to design our shirt or something. Yay? Share this post Link to post
Posted September 7, 2012 They don't even make a mew event? I can't believe that. They went through SO much trouble for a few pictures and a t-shirt? I thought it would be more. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 10, 2012 Guess what? I got a shiny starter, no cheats, on this game. Share this post Link to post
