The GS Ball
 
You think they will keep the GS ball in the game and make it a event or Wifi event?

AJ™ May 11th, 2009 3:56 PM

I think it'd be nice if over Wifi, an event was triggered for a Team Rocket subquest. You'd have to take it back from Team Rocket, or something. XD!

bamak93 May 11th, 2009 3:57 PM

Wifi event.

It would just be too awesome if it shipped with a GS Ball quest.

Ooka May 11th, 2009 3:58 PM

I think the event should be given to people that pre-order, because not everyone can get online. But yeah, it would be nice.

Jran Sakarra May 11th, 2009 4:03 PM

Ya I agree about the Pre-order thing, but Wifi will be most likely or Toys R Us and Gamestop might happen.

xxChazxx May 11th, 2009 4:14 PM

I hope it's not an event at all. The GS Ball wasn't an event the first time around, and it could create a plot hole with Kurt. Balls are hs juristiction.

I really hope it's not over DSiWare. I'd cry.

BlueShadow May 11th, 2009 4:35 PM

It will be a wifi event, like the secret key, member card, Oak's letter and Azure Flute...:)

fenyx4 May 11th, 2009 4:43 PM

I guess Wi-Fi...but I'd really like it in-game :D! I am sick of tired of losing out Pokemon to store/Wi-Fi events! ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :cer_pissed:

Mr. bell May 11th, 2009 4:49 PM

Sadly, it'll probably be WIFI event that involves kurt in some way.

The management of something like that would throw it all into obscurity. You'd need to know exactly how many people pre-ordered the game, if its only for Pre-Orders.

Wi-Fi Event of the GS Ball seems much more likely and like they did (I think) with the Secret Key Event for Platinum, they will probably have stations at local Toys R US stores for people to download it, when they visit.

It wouldn't create a plot hole; (seriously, what kind of plot hole could there be, if the Generation II Event never got over here and people are actively aware it exists?) it would fill in a gap that English players of G/S/C never had; the chance to catch Celebi.

Tyrantrum May 11th, 2009 5:02 PM

I think Nintendo is actually smart enough to make it a Toys R' Us event/Wi-Fi event, now.

Like mention before some WiFi or Special Event. Taking the GS Ball from TR, whom stole it from Kurt and giving it to Kurt who in return tells you to take it to Ilex Forest.

Well, they could have an in game person(s) (Such as a news crew) that allows you to enter a certain phrase and receive the Pokemon. Although I would prefer it over Wi-Fi myself.

Lukar May 11th, 2009 5:36 PM

Hopefully, they'll have it available outside of events. Like, if you beat Red and have either FireRed or LeafGreen inserted, then you get the GS Ball from him as a reward.

"Shadow Lugia" May 11th, 2009 5:39 PM

The event will probably be the same as it was in Crystal, with the change of the GS Ball being given over Wi-Fi.

Virtual Chatot May 11th, 2009 5:56 PM

Event of course, I'd bet money that it wouldn't be shipped with the GS ball.

Well if it was free, it might as well be. Nintendo would definitely want give owners of their shiny new system some sort of gimmick, so it's probable that something like that would be offered, if not for the GS ball.

Besides, I think it would be cool if the event wasn't actually in the game but you actually downloaded the data for it. It could open the doors to many year's worth of continued play for HGSS. I've always thought that Pokemon games would eventually end up like this (being able to download expansion packs for the game without actually buying a new version).

Of course, I don't own a DSi... yet...

Ooka May 11th, 2009 6:04 PM

It might possibly be a code for the news crew again, depending on how much involvement it has with the story (If any).

BHwolfgang May 11th, 2009 7:31 PM

I could only see the GS Ball given out in an event, Wi-Fi or not.

doeboy9 May 11th, 2009 8:47 PM

It wouldnt be a bad Idea to give over wifi and at toys r us. but they really need to branch away from events only available at toys r us

Sweet Smoochum May 11th, 2009 9:09 PM

I don't even live by a Toys R Us. It's an hour long drive. I'd rather get it off wifi, so I don't have to leave the house. I liked getting the secret key for Rotom on wifi and I will like getting the GS Ball on Wifi. If people can't get it off wifi, maybe they can just trade with someone for a Celebi. Anyway, Americans have until 2010 to get wifi before the game is released, so you can try getting it now. It would be better if it was in-game, just to make everyone happy.

Zelda May 12th, 2009 5:33 AM

I think they're probably going to do both like the secret key. Or maybe just an event.

elratauru May 12th, 2009 6:00 AM

well, I hope its just an ingame event, I dont like events or wifi things .w.

Ivysaur May 12th, 2009 6:22 AM
