[B2/W2] Genesect!

[Suicune™]

Pokémon - Genesect Reveal
My Mistake - there is currently a thread regarding this topic.

The first image of CoroCoro's cover has come thanks to papico028 and has revealed the Pokémon Genesect. Currently no further information has been given but we'll provide the information as soon as possible so keep checking back. The magazine states that there is a special 3DS Scoop regarding Genesect but it's not yet known. The rest of the images give the history about how it's #300 in the Unova Pokédex, lived 300 million years ago and was awakened by Team Plasma, referencing the P2 Lab event in Black/White and Black 2 & White 2

Genesect to be distributed from August 11th to September 14th over WiFi.

Courtousy of Serebii. Genesect is only for Black & White 2, So Will you be downloading this event? Do you think it's the right time or are they rushing these legendaries? Discuss!

[pokehearts]

It definitely looks cool. I like it, to bad I don't Pokemon Black and White 2. I'm waiting for the American release.

[Haseyo]

Sweet, I'll definitely pick it up. I'm sure it'll be banned from PWT but he'll fit nice in the box with the rest of my legendaries. At least he'll be legal for WiFi battles soon.

[XanderO]

Ok so totally called it being number 300 and its release close to the new Pokedex Book's release~

Surprised its gunna be a Wifi Distribution so early honestly. Now I'm wondering if that supposed movie trailer was just a commercial for the distribution.

......

We better get all three Events when the games come out in America. >=T

Presumably you would be able to transfer it to Black and White? I'm not sure if you can with Black & White 2 but I'd say it's because it's the most current game and it's kind of on par with the release.

They want to sell these new games. Giving away cool new Legendary Pokémon (who are always quite popular) only for the new games is a great way to get people who want the 'new' Pokémon to buy the newer games.

Why were darkrai and shaymin's event items for platinum only?

[Zayphora]

So in America is it going to be like Victini, with an event immediatly available when you get the games?

[Livewire]

I want it pretty bad, it's an awesome Pokemon and one fo the legends from B&W I actually liked off the bat. Me want.

Seeing as how this event takes place almost 2 months after b2w2's release I'd say the USA will have it by end November or early December.

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

Or they could give it to Americans, Australians, and Europeans around Christmas as a holiday gift...
I wonder why the rush of event Legends...it seems like they want to wrap up this gen: first was B2W2 coming out earlier than usual games, Keldeo followed by Meloetta being officially released. And now Genesect...

[Lt. Col. Fantastic]

No, I wont be getting Genesect. I dont like him, and even if I did, I don't actually own a DS with wifi. (My ds wont connect for some reason, probably from dropping it or something)

And they really are rushing the legendaries, I mean the game wont even be out in every region by then...

[PlatinumDude]

I really want Genesect even more now that its event will be released soon. If I have B2/W2 and a working Wi-Fi signal, then I'd probably try and download it.

[Magmaruby and Aquasapphire]

I will get it when the event comes to the US. I want to raise an ancient killer bug legendary Pokémon

[Destiny Demon]

Wish it was for BW. How else are we supposed to get the entry for our Pokedex?
Jay kay, we can just trade it to BW. Although its's not like you need it to fill complete the Unova Dex anyway.

Although yes, I will get it once released in the U.S.

Their on the money train of course. "Buy new game, get new exclusive pokemon for new game yeah yeah!".

My question is more why now. Usually the don't release these pokemon until movie come about. Maybe this is an indicator the gen is coming to a close around next year, and the Genesect will be in that movie. But if that is the case why not next year... Regardless I am just glad to get my dex completed sooner then later. Especially considering it took forever for Arceus to be released.

[Bluerang1]

Good point about the really early release. Meloetta, and Keldeo itself, weren't released too far off in the past.

So how are we meant to get Genesect in Black and White? Is trade backward-compati- oh right it is :)

[dragonomega]

I think the legends are being a bit rushed tbh. Usually we get 2 events in the span of a year, or something along the lines. But in the past few months we've had 3 events revealed . And in the following 2 or so months we get them distributed. I wonder if they're doing it so we can get all 649 Pokemon legitimately because we need them for the Shiny Charm.

Because PB&W Version based on the first season of the anime, and PB2&W2 based on the second season.
and he will shows up on the second season.
(NOTE: First season has ended)

[Jeremy]

Cool, it's finally "officially" confirmed, sweeties. I'll be downloading the event, as soon as I get my imported copy of Black 2.

I honestly don't feel like the legionaries are rushed, considering we have so many.

It's actually the other way around. I think it's to give people even more reason to buy the games thus more revenue for them.
I like the artwork, it looks much better than I expected.

[vaporeon7]

I'm glad the legendaries are being released so quickly, it means I can have a complete 649 Pokédex rather than 646. And Genesect's artwork makes it look a lot better.

[Keyaki]

Its about time. Finally we get to see what this one can do.
