EagleVision1999 October 15th, 2014 9:39 AM

Since we can talk about different countries in this thread...today is the day gamestop was supposed to get the shiny Gengar codes in Germany, but for some reason they didn't get the codes yet, and we supposedly have to wait another week. Didn't have any more info.
If they just distributed it via Wifi we wouldn't have this problem, the codes are an unnecessary hassle in the best of times but this time they didn't even manage to deliver them to the stores in time. Really dissapointing.

pyrexpyramids October 15th, 2014 2:19 PM

Just got back from another EB games(Canada) expecting to get another Shiny Gengar Code, but instead ended up walking out with the Diancie code!

This time since this location only had Diancie code they tried hastling me and saying ohhh well you need to preorder. I promptly told them thats incorrect, but nonetheless did pre-order and they actually checked my number to make sure I did. They then gave me the Diancie code. I think they are being stiffs about the Diancie code because it says on the code that you can transfer it to ORAS and encourages people to preorder ORAS, thus since the paper says this, employees are trying to hustle people into preordering even though they are supposed to give them out for free. I didn't have this problem when I picked up the Gengar code yesterday but that was at a different location.

I just entered the code and got Diancie! Upon receiving it from the girl at the pokemon center, a cut scene will play.

DeltaElite121 October 16th, 2014 3:57 PM

I have one spare code left.

Teravolt October 16th, 2014 4:06 PM

If anyone wants/needs a code, I have an extra one I do not need :).

That WonderCard isn't supposed to work until the 27th, though. How did it work before the servers even recognize the serial code numbers?

Mapleseruhp October 17th, 2014 1:41 AM

Got both from EB games

No idea, but pretty much everyone who's been lucky enough to get the Diancie code early has been able to redeem it.

I'm pretty damn sure the servers were already set to recognize the code, but retailers were not supposed to hand them out until the 27th just for the sake of having some time between the Gengar distribution. Just a whole lot of jazz to make the distribution seem more special.

Nonetheless, go on reddit or any other pokemon forum and tons of people already have the Diancie code and have redeemed it.

ilias_ October 17th, 2014 6:20 AM

I got my shiny Gengar today! It's beautiful! Too bad its stats (and nature) are not good :(

Hikamaru October 18th, 2014 12:46 AM

Thanks to Limerent's blog here it has now been revealed there is a shiny Gengar event going on in Australia that's similar to this one. For this variant, the codes can be picked up at EB Games, Big W, Target and JB Hi-Fi stores.

This is pretty much how I feel. I wish I could PokeGen it so it could be Timid and 5IVs because Shiny Mega Gengar is so badass.

But I'll take what I have since it's at least... decent.

Manga Otaku October 19th, 2014 5:36 PM

5 Extra shiny gengar codes ^^
 
Anyways I'm new here, don't know where to post this really, but I just found out my Gengar codes won't work on my JPN versions of the games so I have 5 extra, anyone want ? Guess it's better than wasting them. Just post on thread and I'll pm one to you or something, but I've only got 5 so.. first 5 get if they want.

Death October 19th, 2014 5:46 PM

Hi, I'd like a code, please.

Manga Otaku October 19th, 2014 5:50 PM

Sent it to you ^^ Enjoy :P

PumpJack October 19th, 2014 6:02 PM

Well, well, well- What's all this, then?

Manga Otaku October 19th, 2014 6:06 PM

Sent chuu one too, enjoy.

Bibliophibian October 19th, 2014 6:06 PM

I'd like one, if you still have some.
It's super nice of you to give them away. ^^

Manga Otaku October 19th, 2014 6:10 PM

Sent you one, Figured it'd be a waste to not use them ;P

JesteR October 19th, 2014 6:13 PM

You wouldn't happen to have any more, please?

Manga Otaku October 19th, 2014 6:18 PM

Sent you one too, only 1 left.

ThatChickWithNoLife October 19th, 2014 6:51 PM

Do you have any more? If so, I'll take one.

Manga Otaku October 19th, 2014 7:09 PM

Send you one! That's the last code, enjoy ^^

PumpJack October 19th, 2014 8:25 PM

After a few resets, got a Modest nature with perfect IVs in HP and Speed.

Not gonna complain about that.


I'd like to thank you for such generosity. Given lack of people to trade with, this is actually the first Gengar I've ever owned.

J9794 October 19th, 2014 9:06 PM

So close, well, congrats to the people with the gengars ^^, and cheers to you for being so generous.

I don't mean to hijack the thread, but I have one spare code left if anyone would like it. I'm in Australia so I dunno if it'd be compatible with America, but it's just going to go to waste if no one takes it. :)

I merged your thread with this one about the Shiny Gengar and Diancie codes. Figured people can just post in here if they wanna give away spare codes.

I think codes are region-locked, but I'm not sure about that, soooooooooo if someone else knows for sure....

Manga Otaku October 20th, 2014 6:44 AM

They're region locked for USA 3DS, wouldn't work on my Japanese 3DS Pokemon games.

I'd love one if you think it'd work on a UK DS. Not sure if they are locked by region or not?

VeranithasVI October 21st, 2014 3:30 AM

Sorry guys, forgot to check this place since I'm hardly ever over this section of PC, but I gave my code away to a user last night! So sorry guys. I'll report back if I get more from my local EB Games when I go in tomorrow, though.

Jinprix October 22nd, 2014 5:45 PM

Hi! do you guys have an extra gengar code? you see I'm from the Philippines and we don't get many events here.

Thank you!

sylveonbleu October 22nd, 2014 10:56 PM

Hey guys! Was wondering if anyone had an extra Gengar code! The nearest city to me is about an hour away so I won't be able to go in and get one on time :(

oshimas October 23rd, 2014 10:36 AM

diancie codes are already getting given out? UUUUUGHHHHHH.

i really want to get one. D:

gnmmarechal October 24th, 2014 10:33 AM

Looking for help from NTSC players!- Pokémon X/Y
 
So, I have one Shiny Gengar code. Problem is - I am PAL, and the code is for NTSC. I was wondering, is there anyone here who would redeem the US code and trade me the Pokémon, I would be grateful.

BrandoSheriff October 24th, 2014 3:23 PM

I got both the Shiny Gengar card and the Diancie card for being so patient with the Gamestop clerk who slowly processed my pickup of Bayonetta 2 and Omega Ruby pre-order today. So essentially, I got Diancie early. xD

It IS in Europe. You get it at Game which is the UK version of Gamestop. I got it just yesterday but you better motor if you want Gengar because tomorrow is the last day.

Also why do people keep saying about places running out of codes? Our local store just prints them on a receipt, it isn't something that they can run out of. Do you guys have them on cards or something?

Creator Limbs October 25th, 2014 12:18 PM

Still have one blank code left and looking to make a new friend. Who wants it? :)

Belldandy October 26th, 2014 10:06 AM

I just received Diancie today one day early. Got a map of Hoenn with my ORAS preorders (two maps and two Diancies for the two copies).

Pretty sure I can't redeem Diancie today, though :) so I'll wait till a few days after the 27th, just so if I ever want to trade it it won't share the same date as a PowerSAV'd one.

You actually can. I got a Diancie card last Friday, and redeemed it the very same day. Not sure what it'll do to PokeBank's hack check, but I just wanted to see it in-game and gloat to my friends that I got Diancie before them. xD

Hikamaru October 27th, 2014 3:45 AM

Note to any Australians reading this, we actually are getting a Diancie event after all (phew) and here's the details on how the Australian leg of the events will be distributed:

Quote:

At select retail stores in Australia and New Zealand, serial codes for Diancie will be distributed between Nov. 10 and Nov. 28. It is unknown which retail stores will be distributing the codes at this time.

As mentioned previously, Pokémon the Movie: Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction will be at select Hoyts Cinemas in Australia and New Zealand starting Nov. 8. Serial codes for Diancie will also be distributed at these cinemas on Nov. 8 and Nov. 9. After receiving Diancie in the Pokémon X and Y games, it can be transferred to Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire when they are released, which will allow the player to eventually obtain Diancie's Mega Stone.
Having to go see the Diancie movie to get a code is quite awkward, because if I were to ever see it my mother would think I'm still a kid (she wanted me to grow up too quickly) so that's out of the question. But as for the retail stores I could likely see EB Games as a certainty, maybe even Target but we'll see.

skyburial October 27th, 2014 6:08 AM

Oh yeah guys, guess what day it is.

I've got a job interview after work today, but I think I'm gonna grab my first promo card tonight.

If anyone gets a spare code i'd love to get one. Don't have access to one where i'm at. :(

Howmander October 27th, 2014 1:50 PM

Okay, so I got a Diancie code and have been resetting since yesterday to get one with the right nature, well today I FINALLY got the right nature, however, it has no perfect IVs! Does anyone else have this same issue?

All the legendaries in Kalos (INCLUDING the Pokebank Celebi) have all had 3 perfect IVs (as do all the wild caught baby pokemon) however, this Diancie has 11/11/19/21/29/3 so is the calculator I am using just off, or does Diancie not have any perfect IVs??

I'm gonna be picking up as many cards as I can over the course of the event, so let me know if you still need one in a week or so.

YukiSnowmew October 27th, 2014 2:08 PM

I'm not gonna be able to get a code, sadly. If anybody could grab one for me, I'd really appreciate it. The Gengar event wasn't a big deal for me, but I really don't want to miss out on this one.

Diancie, being a Pokemon in the undiscovered egg group, always has 3 perfect IVs. Your calculations are off. What IV calculator did you use?

Speak to the judge in Kiloude to determine where the perfect IVs are and use Serebii's or Metalkid's IV calculator to verify.

Don't have access to the IV judge yet, and I am using the Serebii calculator, which has been correct on all the other pokemon I've been using. You can check for yourself, the latest one I got was Quirky and has the stats:
HP: 121
Att: 114
Def: 164
Sp Att: 116
Sp Def: 169
Speed: 55

Check the stats on your Diancie too, just in case. There's message board threads on other sites that are saying the same thing:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/792673-pokemon-omega-ruby/70385957?page=2
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/696959-pokemon-x/70376749

Edit: but if you have a correct IV calculator I could REALLY use it because I am currently soft resetting to get the correct nature

I punched in those stats into the Psypoke IV calculator, and none of the IVs were perfect ones either. I got a different IV spread though: 23/19/19/23/29/1

It's rather strange that a) it's appearing to not have ANY perfect IVs and b) that we got different numbers.

Btw, the Diancie is at level 50, correct?

Yep, that is correct. I am currently in the process of soft resetting and currently have a Brave one (also at level 50) with the stats 120/132/168/109/170/54 so it could have 31IVs in ATt and SP Def, but it only has an IV of 8 or 9 in Sp Att, so I don't know if I should soft reset again or not until I get a definitive confirmation about it's stats because that might be the best I can get if it's not guaranteed to have 3 perfect IVs, whereas if the calculator is simply wrong, as soon as I find one that is correct I'll use that calculator instead to keep soft resetting.

Anyway, I think the big thing is that Gamefreak decided to make the undiscovered egg group have 3 IVs, so they can just as easily change the programming rules for an event if they want to. After all, not everything int he undiscovered egg group has 3 perfect IVs, only wild caught ones do. Pokemon you breed that are born in the undiscovered egg group do not automatically have 3 perfect IVs so Diancie could be int he same boat as those where all the stats could be random, rather than just 3 of them. (just presuming)

Yeah, I'm starting to think that's the case, especially if there's other people saying that they're not getting Diancie's with 3+ perfect IVs. Since you technically aren't catching the Diancie in the wild, it's not programmed to have 3 perfect IVs I guess.

I've been soft-resetting for Diancie multiple times since downloading it from Mystery Gift, and it turned up with 3 perfect IVs each time.

I used both. I also have a knack of determining whether a level 50 Pokemon's IVs are perfect or not (30-31).

Just add 20 to a Pokemon's base stat (75 for HP), and you can tell that this particular stat is perfect (or semi-perfect).

In this case, a neutral-natured Diancie should have at least 3 of the following perfect IVs (four or more if you're lucky); in order of HP/Attack/Defense/Special Attack/Special Defense/Speed:
125/120/170/120/170/70. Of course, if a nature should affect one of the perfect IVs, just multiply that stat by 1.1 if it benefits, or by 0.9 if it hinders.

Perfect IVs in HP, Defense and Speed.

Alright, so now we've determined that the serebii calculator IS in fact correct, as I got the same perfect IVs as you did, however, the statement that that egg group is always 3 perfect IVs is now no longer true, as my Diancie proves:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/u0t5dfja05vkz6m/photo.JPG?dl=0

and that is the first Diancie I got that had ANY perfect IVs (this one only has two, but I kept it thinking that it might be the best one I get) however, at least we can rule out that the Serebii calculator was wrong because it's apparently not.

My guess is that some game cartridges don't register that Diancie is in the Undiscovered egg group, making any ones that are received at each reset not have the 3 perfect IVs. This is a weird case; I read a couple Tumblr posts about someone having the same problem:

Out of curiosity is it possible to reset for shinyness? The Japanese ones to my knowledge have the same stats and nature, but the event we got generates a random Pokemon each soft reset.

It's impossible to reset for shinies from the looks of things; Diancie may be shiny-locked. I think that whoever had that Diancie cloned it and distributed it.

Anyone have any answers for this?

DeltaElite121 October 27th, 2014 9:26 PM

I'll be picking up mine sometime this week. If you need one and can't get one then feel free to PM me; I'll be getting 2-3 extra codes again for people on here. First come, first serve. :)

PlatinumDude October 27th, 2014 10:26 PM

After spending the next half hour or so of soft-resetting, I finally netted myself a 5-IV Hasty Diancie for OR/AS:

Pic for proof:


Serebii IV calculator results:

#719 Diancie [Hasty]
IVs: 26, 27 / 30, 31 / 30, 31 / 30, 31 / 30, 31 / 31
Stats at Lv.50: 123 / 120 / 153 / 120 / 170 / 77

Sure, it's going to take a bit more from Talonflame, but at least the 5 perfect IVs are there in the right places, plus the HP IV isn't too shabby.

Chalifoux October 27th, 2014 10:50 PM

I went to my local Gameplanet and they had run out of codes. Heard they were also handing them online so I decided to give that a go, but the codes there had also run out. I just wish that events would be given away via Wi-Fi like they used to instead of me wishing I lived in the US because in Mexico there are like four Gameplanet stores in the entire country :l

If you could get me one, that'd be great. I'd love you 5ever. I never can get these events smh.

Diancie event - Help a boy of 2nd world!
 
I live in Brazil and here it is not possible to obtain the code from the Diancie event, I wonder if someone could give me a code for me to get it because I really want to, Brazil is the 4th largest consumer of games in the world and yet happens here anything about pokemon :( if anyone can help me I would be eternally grateful.

(Written by Google translator sorry if something is wrong written)

skyburial October 28th, 2014 6:40 AM

I'm getting quite a few requests for extra codes, so should supply run out in my town, I'll be dishing these out on a first come, first serve basis.

Shadowche October 28th, 2014 7:24 AM

I'd like code for Gengar or Diancie. There is no way to get it in my country.

Shiny Gardevoir October 28th, 2014 7:53 AM

Me too, I'd like a Diancie code (and maybe Gengar too?) since events never happen in our country >_<
The only ones I could ever get are wifi events TAT

oshimas October 28th, 2014 8:40 AM

Is anyone from the US experiencing problems with the code server? I can't seem to get the diancie since yesterday and I've getting error codes since then. :/

Psywing October 28th, 2014 10:07 AM

If someone can pick me up a Diancie code I would very much appreciate it. No way to get one in my country.

A lot of other trainers are having this problem. Some are saying it should be up by 11PM tonight or tomorrow.

I have a spare code I need to find a home for but it's a US code so I have no idea if it'll work.

kas491 October 28th, 2014 3:48 PM

I'd line to get a Diancie code too, because I cannot get one here where I live.

Thanks, for your generosity. Just came home and saw that I managed to get a code on Reddit. Yes, it would work, since my 3DS is NA. Thanks, anyway! Maybe, someone here can benefit from that code :D

Garrabutártulo October 29th, 2014 12:57 AM

Wait, Diancie is available in Europe now? I thought we only got the gengar!

Could I have the code instead? It's impossible to get one here ;_;.

If anyone has a spare US code for Diancie, I appreciate it if you could give me one :D

Cyclone October 29th, 2014 9:12 AM

Thank you yet again, Nintendo, for creating crap like this with exclusive code giveaways. Made even worse by the fact that we currently cannot trade them.

Well alright, I'll PM the code to you. I had two, used one already, and the second one needs an owner.

And it's quite alright Psywing. I'm glad you got one. :)

there's a new update that came out yesterday and you can't go online without it, does the update allow trading of Diancie now though?

That's what I'm talking about. RNC attempted to trade me two separate Diancie (as tests, not to keep). Both claimed they could not be traded.

Huh.... Glitch maybe? Or maybe there's more to them than that tiny little cutscene?

I know that's what you're talking about, but the Diancie was untradeable BEFORE the update came available, what I'm asking is is it STILL untradeable AFTER the update is installed? (Cause tge update came out AFTER RNC gave people their codes)

It could also be intentional, I mean what would be the point of rushing to your nearest game store to get this special legendary if you can just sit at home and keep asking for someone to trade you one? (Yes I know people can still do that with the codes, but game freak has not control over that but they do over trade) or even more sinister, since there is known exploits to clone Pokemon both over the GTS and during a trade, perhaps this is to stop cloners until the event is over or until ORAS comes out?

That's what I was saying.

I haven't tried to redeem mine yet as something untradeable is useless. I have other Diancie already.

skyburial October 29th, 2014 3:47 PM

Well, after only 5 tries, I scored a Naive Diancie with 3 perfect IV's and a 29 ^_^




destinedjagold October 29th, 2014 4:45 PM

I settled with a neutral nature 'cause I forgot which nature Diancie would suit best. -,-

But oh well, I'm still proud of the Diancie that I got! ^^

Diancie
Nature: Serious
Stats: 125/120/170/119/168/70
IVs: 30/31/31/29/27/31
HP: Dragon

^^

gameguy11 October 29th, 2014 5:04 PM

I have an extra shiny gengar code I can't redeem, if someone wants to please PM me

Joexv October 29th, 2014 5:43 PM

So happy I got both today.:) My local gamestop ran out of the gengars really fast.
So far Im dissapointed in the gengar.:( So it will be used for breeding!!

SnowpointQuincy October 29th, 2014 7:41 PM

Got My code now problem!

Now to Soft-Reset for a decent nature. :15:

Isn't that just like Paul from the anime. "Yeah, I caught a Mythical Pokemon, but the IVs were bad so I released it."

JeanCG October 29th, 2014 9:51 PM

Someone would have some code of Diancie for gifting me please? I can not get it in my country, if someone can help me I would be very grateful!

But it's Shiny.

Stock response. "So?"

You should have seen my disapproval of Heracross.
