It's understandable that the young kids don't know how it works, but the employees should, at the very least, walk them through the steps that ARE ON THE BIG SIGN for crying out loud.

Young kid: How do I get teh Arceus thingy?
Employee: Uh.....just start your game and....uh....hit "download".
Me: *snicker*

I probably should've helped, but I was trying to keep on the down-low, and besides, it was too funny!

Haha, I've had the same experience too. :D If the TRU employees are positioned in the electronics section, you would think that they know how to work a DS.. However, no one wants help from me, seeing as a girl helping a boy at a video game would crush his ego. :<

Unless you have hacked the Azure Flute, you can still get the item from a possible WiFi event.

I got 2 Arceus yesterday, as my third game has 3 wondercards (Shaymin, Deoxys, Dragonite) to soft reset for.. Sigh. I do not think Arceus can be trained but I want to SR for a good one. XD

Well, it was slightly embarrasing to be the only 20 year old in the store, surrounded by 5-10 year olds. So I was trying not to be.....you know....nerdy.....

Hence "on the down-low."

Good thing I don't hack then :D


Besides if I hacked I wouldn't be playing these games anymore, because I would have everything and it would get boring. I'm pretty sure this is why you see all those used pokemon games at Gamestops, because people got bored of them from using AR's.

When you learn to get over that, you'll have much more fun with your life. I did, hell I even found out a few of my friends like pokemon. They don't have any of the new versions because they don't want to waste money on them, but one of them plays one of the gameboy versions every night for fun and to help him get to sleep. :D



Besides, it's not like you would most likely see any of those people again......



Okay lol i'm kind of going off in a rant, so just do what you want dude :D




Woah, double posts automatically get merged, that's dope! They need this feature on all forums......

Lol, I'm not like that (but I know some guys that are). Actually it's a bit of fresh air to see a girl playing pokemon. The ratio of boys to girls always seems to be like 9000 to 1, at least in my experience.

Same. I'm going to try to soft reset for an Adamant one and EV train it anyway, because I'm just that hard-headed.:P If it doesn't work, here's hoping they release the Azure Flute.

I'm usually not embarrassed (I have pretty thick skin, for the most part) but for some reason, I couldn't help it this time. Heh, the other day I was telling people not to be embarrassed to go, and look what happened to me! I'll try taking both of our adivce. :P

BTW, I admire your confidence. We could all use a little more of that.

MechaTrickster November 8th, 2009 2:32 PM

I just scored me an awesome poster and arceus :D

thegeneticway November 8th, 2009 2:51 PM

I went to Tru and got me 2 Arceus. And then an employee walked upto me and gave me some Stickers and a poster about Pokemon Rumble.

I sticked the stickers on my DS ^^

Haha gaaaaaawd this is going to be me. ONLY 20 YR OLD IN THE STORE TRYING TO DOWNLOAD A POKEMON. :(

But it's k. I did it for the last Pokemon at TRU, don't even remember what it was. Darkrai?

Sooo.... no one in MN that wants to meet up? D:

Crystal-Heart November 11th, 2009 5:23 PM

I need help with the [Oak's Letter] event from a little while ago. I got [Oak's Letter] from it, but I got it shortly before Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days was released, so I never got around to it. Now that I have, I went through that portion of the Victory Road for the first time and when I got to the White Rock, Marley approached but Oak was nowhere to be seen. I tried again several more times, but he never appeared.

BlueShuckle November 11th, 2009 5:28 PM

I wish I could get the Arceus, but the closest TRU is about 45 minutes away. I hope there will be another release of Arceus for Wi-Fi people.

Oh, gee, I'm sorry.... I really do hope that they will have a second chance Arceus.... I know that they did for Darkrai in D/P, though, so who's to say that they won't do it for the ultra rare Arceus?

I got the event Arceus today on my way back from my haircut (since my haircut-person's building is practically right next to a Toys R Us) and it pwns big time. :D

Alternative November 13th, 2009 4:34 PM

Okay, so either today or tomorrow, I'm going to EB games to get the Arceus.

What is the Arceus event called, like if you were advertising it.
Would it be TRU Arceus?

TheAppleFreak November 13th, 2009 5:17 PM

I got 2 Arceuses yesterday; first try, without SRing, I got an Adamant Arceus ^u^

And yes, Haley, it's the TRU Arceus.

Agent Cobalt November 14th, 2009 9:43 PM

I got two Arceus a few hours ago. I didn't realize I could reset to get different natures. So I'm stuck with a quiet one on Platinum. However I luckily found out I could keep refreshing the game to change the stats. I see a lot of people talking about an adamant one. Is that the most desirable nature for its movepool? It's got Judgment, which is normal. The other moves are from the three dragon mascots. What nature is best to optimize/utilize its potential? I'm going to keep resetting for something desirable.

pokejungle November 14th, 2009 11:01 PM

ergh wtf.

I went to TRU (EMBARRASSING) and there was no sign up about any sort of downloads or anything. So I left :<

Ick.

Agent Cobalt November 14th, 2009 11:12 PM

Forget the signs. I got mine all the way at the end of the section. You just need to be in proximity of the signal. Should have tried anyway.

Diet coke. Mind you.

I went to a TRU and they didnt have the sign either. But I asked the manager or who ever it was i was talking to (was too anxious to get Arceus) and he said that they were giving out Arceus and i got it :D It was funny..my first time

Question ABOUT TRU arceus
 
what are his stats... cause i think the one i have may possibly be hacked... but im not sure

the stats are strangely high...

what about the japanese movie event 09 arceus

Ryu-kun November 20th, 2009 9:36 AM

Check bulbapedia...
And Arceus has the highest stats in the whole series.

Prince_of_Light November 20th, 2009 9:42 AM

Another question.

Does TRU Arceus come with EV's or does he lack EV's since he's level 100?

Pokémon Ranger ✩ Moriarty November 20th, 2009 9:42 AM

The TRU Arceus is at Level 100, so it's pretty much guaranteed that his stats would be high. o.0

All Pokémon start with 0 EVs when you get them, including this one. It's possible to increase them through the use of vitamins, though. However, this limits it to up to 100 EVs in each stat rather than 255.

Ochigi November 21st, 2009 6:45 AM

The arcues' stats are usually basic like wen u catch it (like 270 atk or so) with the azure flute.Plus nintendo wants it to be fair the event so they just make their stats for the arcues' mostly the same only the natures are random.
