not exactly i already had a dusclosp with a reaper cloth and i evolved it thanks to him he just sent it back to me after it evolved i needed dusknoir for pokedex :D
Yeah, it didn't open because it was temporarily unavailable. It's up now probably. But anyways, yeah, I've heard of the news. The new Pokémon is still blanked out so don't know what it'll look like yet.
Yup, just because it's April Fools. If you check the Battle Server too, the Pokémon sprites are replaced with wacky drawings. Have you went to the server yet?
