  • Confirmed. Got my email at 4:17pm PST, and I'm getting the same "coupon" error for my code image. I wonder what went wrong.

    I know there's no way for anyone to know right now, but I just played through it and got the Glalie, is there any way to delete the data (after you transfer the glalie to the full game, obviously) and play again to get another glalie? You know, so you can trade it with someone who has the Steelix and get both?

    According to Pokemon Support:
    [Last updated: 10/21/14 4:19 PM PST]
    It has come to our attention that some users have not yet received their copy of the newsletter, and that some who have are reporting that the code for the Alpha Ruby/Omega Sapphire Demo is not appearing properly in the message.
    Because of the large volume of newsletters sent, there could be some delays as they make their way through the various internet providers and networks, leading to some users receiving their newsletters before other users.
    We're working closely with our service partner to resolve the issue of non-displaying codes and hope to see the issue resolved shortly. This should not require us to re-send the message as once the error is corrected users will then see the code appear in their original newsletter email.
    We will update this article as we receive information, and we encourage you to click the subscribe link so that you are notified as we update this issue.
    Thank you,
    Pokémon Support

    So all we gotta do is keep refreshing til it stops saying coupon, or we can go to sleep, let the servers chill and over the next few hours we'll get our code properly

    Thanks reddit.

  • I got the coupon email too.
    Anyway, I've already got a code thanks to a kind user on here, so I plan on giving this one away anyway.
    My question is, I thought this was only for NA/CAN demos, but the email says it's from "pokemon international" so will it work on any 3ds or just NA/CAN ones?

    Just keep refreshing your email. I kept hitting refresh on the email for half an hour til i just got it and now i'm downloading it as i type this.

    see my above message from nintendo. in case you dont wanna scroll up let me summarize for you: if you got an email and it says nothing just chill. the servers are backlogged right now. either keep refreshing or wait a couple hours or til morning. the code is not going anywhere. also if you signed up for newsletter and still havent received the code, nintendo says they are being sent in batches and could take up to a week to get. Don't worry!!!

    It will only work for NA/CAN, Pal regions cannot redeem on theirs and we can't redeem their codes.

  • Shoot. I forgot to opt into emails when I made the account a few months back... Would anyone have a spare North America code I could have?

  • For those off you who get the "Coupon" code make sure you are opening your email from a computer or laptop. It won't display the code on your phone's sometimes.

    They may have not gotten around to it yet as they said they are sending them in batches, and sending out mass emails to a lot of people across your country would take time I bet. Never mind the server issues due to everyone looking on the webpage (resulting in people unable to see the images containing the codes - kinda dumb by whoever thought up that idea, really).

    I have 2 accounts associated with the Pokemon Trainer Club (I restarted Y so I needed a new account; stupid pokemon.com and their dumb restriction rules.) so if you want a code, PM me.
