Unova Starters with Hidden Abilities to be distributed in Japan next month

Still not totally a negative, between breeding and wondertrading they will hit us soon enough, and we can breed english ones
|
Finally Contrary Serperior will be legal to use for competitive battles. While Wonder Trade already fulfills this, will this event eventually hit worldwide?
|
Kinda sad that we couldn't get one with our preferred balls. :/
Aw well... It's great to hear that their HAs are going to be released finally! ^^ I've been wanting an HA Snivy for a long time now. ^_^ |

But aside from that, this is definitely welcome news especially given Contrary Serperior will now become a thing. Seriously, OR/AS seems to have been blessing us with HA's that we all wanted, first Adaptability Dragalge is legal and now Contrary Serperior. Kinda sucks the Oshawott line's HA isn't all that great, but whatever. |

Y'know, I just noticed the trend in GF on giving the move Hold Back to event Pokemon.

I'm so glad we finally get Contrary Serperior. HA Emboar and Samurott aren't too shabby either.
However, it's kinda disappointing that they only get released in Japan. Let's hope that Game Freak changes their mind and releases them worldwide, or that the Japanese breed them and Wonder Trade them to us. P.S.: I hope the Johto starters get their HA as soon as possible. |

Well, this explains why I got the Contrary Snivy from the GTS the other day then! But besides the Johto starters, There's Heatran, the legendary bird trio, the legendary beast trio, the Regi trio, and kind of Mewtwo, the Kami Trio, Ho-Oh and Lugia, Dialga, Palkia and Giaratina if you don't have the ones caught from Dream Radar who can't have their hidden abilities either. (I mention the "kind of" ones as well because even if you transfer them, you can't use them in gen 6 only types of battles and competitions) |

And you forgot the Kalos fossils. Snow Warning Amaura would be amazing. |
It's about ****in' time Game Freak. Not that the Unova starters are ones I like a lot, but I don't see why they waited so long to give them their HAs. I kinda wanted to play around with a Contrary Serperior anyway cuz Serperior's ok.
And even though it's currently a Japan only thing, I'm sure it won't be long before the rest of the world gets them too, since the Japanese are usually pretty good about sharing nice pokes with other people via WT/GTS. Now hurry up and release the HAs for the Kalos fossils Game Freak. I need my Rock Head Tyrantrum NOW. |
*Sits patiently waiting for an Archeops without defeatist* Le sigh.
But seriously, I need that snivy hehe. I hope Japan is generous with breeding and WTing them. |
This is nice news, but I hope that either this event comes to America someday or we can get our hands on some from the Japanese when they get these starters. As i've mentioned several times, Contrary Serperior is one long overdue, and Reckless Emboar is a welcome addition.

Cant wait, contrary for contrary serperior! <3

I'm pretty excited! Leaf Storm Serperior will be my new best friend. Can't wait to get to breeding and perhaps even try my luck for a contrary shiny (and maybe HA Tepig if I feel up to it).
Poor Samurott though.. hidden ability but certainly nothing special. |
They should've done this a generation ago, IMO. Since Hidden/Dream World abilities debuted in Gen V, it felt so wrong not to give the Unova starters their Hidden/Dream World abilities right off the bat.

One thing to know about this event is that it's another silly "one-use code" distribution which has been plaguing so many events this generation, but I've got a feeling that Japanese players will likely be breeding the starters and releasing them onto Wonder Trade just in case if the event never goes international. The fact the codes can be redeemed until November 30th means that there's plenty of time to redeem the codes, which is much longer than most other code events so far. |

I'm not fussy about the ball, I actually try to catch everything in Poké Balls. Paralysis, sleep, etc. I did the entire X/Y Friend Safari that way. It can be done. The exception I make is legendaries, which are unique situations. If I wind up with a Shiny, I might be Master Balling it if it gets to dire circumstances. I'll bring in the ApriBalls periodically, but that's about it. |
Guys, I learned something new and I think pretty cool about this event. According to Serebii, the codes for this event are shared and can be used by multiple people, which is a nice change from the one-use codes we've had with other recent events.
Speaking of the starters, the Contrary Serperior distribution is now underway in Japan. The Reckless Emboar and Shell Armor Samurott will be out in coming weeks. |
Wow I am so excited for the Contrary Serperior, I've been waiting for this since DW OU at the beginning of the fifth generation :D Maybe I'll try my hands at breeding a 5IV one~
