Japan to get kyrouge and groudon event
So I just heard that b4 our pokemon bank issues are resolved, the Japanese are once again being spoiled by game freak and Nintendo and having a kyrouge and groudon event. So once again japan receives events and special priveledges before everyone else. Anyone getting suck of game freaks biased treatment towards to japan?
|
How dare Japan (which is where the games originated by the way) have more special event distributions!
|
Well, they ARE Japanese companies with HQs in Japan after all. Normally I would be a little irked, but after them getting special treatment with the events for years now, I don't care so much anymore.
I just hope they're working on the Bank too... |
Japan still doesn't have Playstation 4, if that makes you feel better.
|
I was a little hopeful that with gen 6 embracing the internet age with the "always connected" PSS, that more future events would be supplied via Internet for all. This doesn't seem to be the case... I'm not upset as much as I'm disappointed with Game Freak.
Maybe things will be different when everyone has access to Bank. We'll just have to wait and see. |
Do you think it's their way to apologize about pokemon Bank crashing?
|
As long as the Pokemon don't have like exclusive moves or something wickedly awesome, I honestly don't mind.
|
Where did you hear this because I googled it and the ONLY one I found was a giveaway from the Marriland website which is just their own thing. Do you have links?
|
would be nice to make a petition on Change.org, and claim for events worldwide
Edit: I just noticed that when the new pokemon movie comes out they will make a giveaway, in CoroCoro are making a Poll to see wich poke will be the chosen for the giveaway, these are the options: Darkrai, Victini, Manaphy and Jirachi, i hope it goes worldwide T.T |
I don't particularly care for the legendaries, but I was thinking that with the worldwide reason and whatnot, that events outside Japan would only be a few days apart from those in Japan. So long as they don't plan to make these events Japan (or any country) exclusive, then I won't mind being patient. But meh.
|
As someone who lives in a country that never gets anything first, I don't really care. Pokemon was made in Japan, so them getting special treatment isn't surprising.
|
I personally would love to have a Groudon or Kyogre! If they do it in Japan only i wouldnt be that surprised.. but still a little upset because i would want those pokemon too):

The next two distribution events are known through actual media and so far nothing has shown Kyogre and Groudon. I think you just fell prey to a rumor. Next event is the Coupon distribution which is a global one along side the release of the PokeMile Attractions on the Pokemon Global Link. After that, there is currently a poll going on through CoroCoro as to what the next distribution will be: Jirachi, Manaphi, Darkrai, and Victini. This is to go along with the next movie release in Japan (something that does not happen outside since its more popular over there than anywhere else.) Other than those two, there is the O-Power distribution at the Hobby Fair which is an annual thing I believe. Japan doesn't get better treatment for nothing. Pokemon is a major thing over there while its minor everywhere else. They have more fans that give avid support than anywhere else. Really fan ratings are the only thing to blame. Why would they want to waste money doing world wide distributions when the majority of the fan base comes from home? Similar to sports memorabilia. You find a majority of specific sports team merchandise in their home state than you will outside because majority of the fans are in that state. I would like more distributions, but its a cause that isn't going to win unless more fans suddenly appear. You also have international trading to think about. It costs money to do this sorta thing overseas. More money depending on your home country (I think America is one of the more expensively taxed ones.) Even software like this gets hit with it for distribution. |
I'm guessing he just got confused with the Kyogre/Groudon event they got for B2/W2 from last year.

if you think about it, the American region had a promotion event that allowed US players to get Dialga, Palkia and Giratina from gamestop shops (all of which are shinies). If you compare that with Japan's events in pokemon X/Y which is an inkay with the happy hour move. You'd think twice before actually complain about who's being spoiled. But on the otherhand, we are all currently feeling sore from the lack of news with the pokebank release date, it can't be helped that some of us (admittedly including me) is feeling quite jealous about this rumor.
|
This is the first I hear about this event...
I hope that we get the event Pokémon chosen in Corocoro...but sadly it'll proably end up like the Gen V favorite mascot contest...where Rayquaza won... |

Well.. Japan always receive everything. lol Moderny!

Does anyone have a link to prove this?

I don't care if Japan gets special treatment. Like Khrysta said, that's where the games originated and have the most active fan base. I can get a Kyogre or Groudon from my Gen IV or III games and transfer them up the generations. Nothing I'm gonna cry over and call unfair.
Also, I don't see word of this on Serebii, so where exactly is this news coming from? |
Quote:
No, wait. Those were only distributed in New York. So no, it isn't just Japan that gets (very) special priveledges. Japan didn't even get the shiny Dialga/Palkia/Giratina event everyone else did get. |

Except when Japan are the only ones *not* getting something, in which case everyone conveniently forgets about those, right? Quote:
Seismic Toss move tutor in FR/LG. Granted, the Wish Chansey one isn't available anymore, but there's absolutely nothing preventing non-Japanese players from getting Seismic Toss on Kangaskhan. |
