Genesect!
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! http://www.serebii.net/genesect2.jpg |
It definitely looks cool. I like it, to bad I don't Pokemon Black and White 2. I'm waiting for the American release.
|
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.
|
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 |
Why is it only for Black 2 and White 2? What are GameFreak on?

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

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

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. |
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 :) |
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.

and he will shows up on the second season. (NOTE: First season has ended) |
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. |
Quote:
I like the artwork, it looks much better than I expected. |
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.
|
Its about time. Finally we get to see what this one can do.
|
Quote:
And I agree Suicune the artwork does add a bit of appeal to Genesect. |
This pokemon is so strange...looks like a car or a transformer...whatever...
¬¬' |
The only thing I personally don't like about genesect is it's typing. Bug/Steel types are far too common - would've preferred a bug/psychic or bug/dark type for some more variety. Apart from that, I'm quite exited about it's reveal.
Also, the sugomori art make it look even better. |
I think Bug/Steel is perfectly suited for Genesect judging by it's appearance, also remember than it can hold specific drives to change its typing.
|
I think it's just to change the type of his signature move, not his actual type. I don't think they'd pair it with Arceus 100%.
|
Ya the drives change the type of Techno Blast only, not Genesect's type.
|
Oh right, my mistake.. but with Genesect being Bug/Steel it only makes him have one weakness regardless of it being a x4.
|
The Techno Blast type change thing is waaaay too lame.
They really should have done something better with those drives. Like WTF, it can leanr Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, Flamethrower. All of them better than the respective Techno Blast, without having to give up the hold item slot. And they cause status effects! And it has just 5 PP? *facepalm* Its the one single thing that makes no sense in the whole fifth generation. Which is why I was curious to see what kind of thing they would do to Genesect in BW2 (idk, something similar to the concept of formes..), that would fix this. But with Genesect now revealed, nothing is different than we already knew .-. EDIT: Before anyone goes "oh well at least the Water one is useful then?" No. Not even that is. Because a life-orb Water type Hidden Power is better. For real... LOL Not to mention the other moves benefit from the item too... |
Well you'd either have to hack or get very lucky for its Hidden Power to come out Water type.
|
Slightly updated and clearer image(s) of Genesect:
http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/314819_331656673587293_131187930_n.jpg |
A trailer featuring him was leaked basically just now, but I can't provide a link. Looks intriguing.
|
Trailer taken from the theaters. Looks really cool.l |
Genesect is a legendary pokemon. personally i dont like legendary pokemon because I think that they are very cheap i think that genesect will go uber because it has really good typing and an amazin movepool also nothing counters it besides maybe heatran but there is hp ground for that
|
I am all for this, finally a bug legendary. About time. They may be rushing it a little bit but you can't really complain about being given free pokemon. Especially legendaries.
|
I'm excited to get Genesect. Even though it will just collect dust in my box, I'm going to pick it up and RNG it for the sake of RNG. x3
|
Good thing they revealed it, now the National Pokedex is complete until the 6th Generation.
|
Yay, it's finally revealed. I won't be getting it though. A bit too much like an Unovan Mewtwo to me.
okay i'm finished here now back to homestuck |
I think it's funny.
People used to complain about events taking way too long to be released, but once they start being released in quick succession, people complain that they're being released "too fast." |

Genesect definetely isn't an uber. Everyone in the tier can rip it to pieces, especially Reshiram, Fire Arceus, Groudon, V-Create Rayquaza, Shadow Tag Chandelure, and Ho-oh. It'll be chillin' with Scizor and Forretress in OU.

Genesect Event

Quote:
So we already have the Genesect Download event. Pokejungle listed the downloaded attacks, or at least what may be its downloaded attacks. Those of you with Japanese games are so lucky XD |
I wouldn't say they're lucky, considering English games will most likely get the exact same one, just with a different OT/ID combination, a few months later.
|
The people with the Japanese games are lucky cause they'll be able to get 2 XD official Japanese ones and the English ones when they come out.
|
What do you mean, "lucky"?
I'm gonna trade for one!! mwhahaha |
I'm happy Japan is getting the event now, it just means I'll be able to get one through trade and fully complete my White's Pokédex.
|
I thought this one was the same one as the download...shows how informed I am...
It seems cool, I want this one to be the one we get here in the US. |
How do I get the event Genesect into my party? I downloaded it and all but it's not even registered on my Pokédex.
|
You have to have a free slot open on your team and then talk to the man in green that appears in the Pokemon Center. He gives you Genesect.
|
Downloaded this bad boy a few days ago. Love his cry. I'm going to RNG a Timid natured Genesect, seeing as Gonzo has already grabbed a Naive one :P
|
I got this guy just earlier. Actually, I didn't even know Genesect is currently distributed at this very moment until I skimmed through this thread.
|
Genesect was kind of...ruined for me by this web comic called Black Adventures(he was portrayed as being...erm...Mecha Hitler) but because it's an event I will probably get it. If it does come out in the US.
|
I simply saved near the Pokémon Center guy and then I think I might have reset once or twice for it.
I don't mind the nature as long as it's not a bad one, so when I get events, if the nature hinders its battle ability, then I'll reset and settle with whatever one has a non-hindering nature. (I'm a big fan of neutral natures.) |
Genesect event is coming back to the states starting Oct 7 date of the B2/W2 release right?
|
Yes. The discussion for the Genesect Event is on the B/W forum since Genesect's in game event is also in those games.
