ever wonder if these "removed" pokemon were ever going to be announced as a gamestop "distro" event? or did the discovery kill it?
Well, for Diancie, it's only a matter of time. It's not even out in Japan yet. Usually major movie promo distro's lag behind Japan and are related to the either the movie release in the US/Europe or are just release up to 6 months or more after the fact.
AZ Floette is different. Nobody really even knows exactly where it fits in yet as far as story outside of the game. It could be a very long time before we find out how it fits in Nintendo's plan and a possible release date. It could also be that we will never see it officially released. It would not be the first time that something was included in a Pokemon game and was scrapped later (like the Hall of Origin.)
For the mega stones, my guess would be that they will be related to the Gen 3 remakes. For all we know, it could be the next worldwide Wi-Fi release at the launch of the games this fall.
were future unannounced last gen DS distro events cancelled because celebi was discovered in a Legendary distro cart hidden away to be activated a few months later?
[and all the distro carts kept being dumped? (Deoxys, legendary cart etc) or am I wrong?
Yeah, the Celebi distribution was pushed back.
But it still got released, just under different OT/ID
[
Yeah distro carts got dumped.
Waiting for it to happen.
you could be right...but if my memory serves correctly, were future unannounced last gen DS distro events cancelled because celebi was discovered in a Legendary distro cart hidden away to be activated a few months later? and all the distro carts kept being dumped? (Deoxoy, legendary cart etc) or am I wrong?
I just hope that this discovery didn't stunt or kill the official unveiling of these hidden and secret pokemon
I do know that the Hall of Origin was scrapped because they felt that it was too complicated for people to figure out how to use the flute (which really doesn't make sense to me, but that was the reason given.)
To my knowledge, the distro carts only come with the data for that specific event and nothing else. A Celebi was most likely never planned for gen 5 because an event Celebi (Win2011) was widely distributed during HG/SS.
Historically, Nintendo tends not to do extremely close overlapping event giveaways and mostly suspect that people will migrate them up the chain of games. What we don't get to see is the master long term plans of Nintendo/Game Freak which tends to dictate things like in game content and event giveaways.
For example, there were practically no gen 3 pokemon in X/Y most likely because they had already decided that there was going to be a set of remakes a year or more earlier. We don't really appreciate it, but when dealing with massive franchises, most companies plan years ahead on to handle the brand and where to go next. We see the after effects and then begin to see patterns (like for the remakes.)
I agree that in regards to the flute it was a rather odd excuse for sure. However, that was the official after the fact reason from one of the developers (Masuda himself). http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/interview/35513/pokemon-x-and-y-interview-with-game-freak[/quote]
Yeah, I found it a shame that they cancelled it out.
Kids who can use youtube will be able to find it immediately!
I wanted my legit shiny Arceus
I'm not just talking about events though. If you look at the game as a whole, gen 3 Pokemon were highly underrepresented when compared to other gen Pokemon in this game. Most likely, it was due to the fact that they already knew that they were doing a remake. It is very similar to how the initial gen 3 games pretty much completely ignored gen 1/2 pokemon more than likely because they already knew far in advance that they were remaking the gen 1 games.
No I get it, I actually agree that gen III has been very under presented.
Just stating that there were a few minor events.
If only they're remake FRLG (crazy cycle repeats)
I hear you on that one.
It's not like they haven't released other events that required traveling to other areas to catch a Pokemon. I thought that the whole scenario was kind of cool and actually didn't seem like an afterthought like some of their other in game legendary captures. It's sad that they axed it. They eliminated a cool part of the game in my opinion.
You might want to try a different forum. This is the hacking forum so trades and cloning don't normally go down here.hello can any one clone for me please
Only smealum and projectpokemon(I think) have managed to do thatas far as i know, you can get volcanon and hoopa via hacking the rom to modify the wild pokemon on safari, just like you did with az floette and diancie
So anyone with a JPN game want to add hoopa, volcanion, and the "hidden" items and type gems to the community save?
