Is anyone else having trouble with GameSync?
 
I bought 20 Rare Candies last night from the PokeMiles club and have been trying to Game Sync ever since to get them but I keep constantly getting "You can't connect to the Pokemon Global Link due to ongoing maintenance. Please wait, and then try again. Error Code: 090-0210" messages. Now I just want to make sure I'm not the only one getting this message because the Pokemon GL website news section only states that Rating Battles has been disabled for the time being, it doesn't mention anything about the Game Sync service and I can't find any mention of it on Google so I just want to know if other people are having the same issue. Thanks!

Might wanna hit up this thread next time buddy (Quick Q&A):

That said, maintenance is just that: maintenance. It's not a glitch; it seems that Nintendo frequently does some kind of routine work on the servers. I find it happens a lot at night (EST/GMT -5:00). Just try again at some other time.

Maybe they're getting ready for the PokeBank? It is just around the corner...

out of the 100 pages of that thread, where does it say why I haven't been able to access game sync for the last 17 hours? If I'm the only one, I want to know because then the problem may be my 3DS or my game or something if no one else is mentioning it, but if other people ARE having the problem then obviously it is actual maintenance, which was my reason for this post.

No no, I didn't say those "100 pages" had the answer (did you use the Search function?), I meant for you to go ask the question yourself there. One question usually doesn't warrant a new thread.

Anyway like I said, you are not the only one. This happens to me, my brothers, and everyone on my Friends list who plays these games. If it were a problem with your 3DS, you wouldn't be able to connect to the internet at all on it.

It's not a 'problem' since it is legit maintenance. Hope that answers your question, bud.

Umm, do you not get a message about the maintenance when you visit http://3ds.pokemon-gl.com/ ?

I remember there was an announcement about there going to be maintenance a few days ago.

I too often get that error message, but you just retry multiple times and it goes away and will eventually sync up.

since when I play I'm constantly online, when I save to get off, it links to global link automatically. It sends whatever miles I have on my game, whenever I save.
