One day I was looking on serebii.net and it said in Japan there giving two pokemon to go with the 12th movie. Lv.30 pikachu color Pichu and a lv.100 Arceus that knows Judgement,Roar of Time, Spacial Rend, and Shadow Force. I don't mind the pichu but the Arceus? Soon,were all going to have Arceus and then there wont be any fun because will we fighting each other with same pokemon. Whats your take on this?

More than likely, the larger number of people still don't have Arceus, so it doesn't seem like too much of a problem. I personally think it's sort of awesome. xD

i know this might have nothing to do with this subject but i hate the trade rule to evolve kadabra, gravler, haunter its a waste of an idea in the games
I personally thinkn the trade rule is genious. XD I mean, sure, it can be annoying sometimes but if you have the right stuff (link cable and 2 game boy colours/advance for generation 3 and below, 2 DS' for gen 4) then it's not that bad. Besides, it influences people to trade ;).

Anyway, on subject, didn't they give away a Darkrai not to long ago with Roar of Time and Spacial Rend :\? I personally think it is kind of stupid to give an already powerful pokemon the two newest, strongest and what made the mascots special move. It is kinda cheap, really. :\ The Pichu is kinda like the Zigzagoon ages ago. :P

You may think it's awesome but when you go online and everyone has a cheap Arceus then you will go "I hate Nintendo"

Quite a lot of people dont use ubers anyway, so I guess it wont be that much of an problem, but I do think the Arceus is cheap, with Dialga and Palkias special moves. :(

0_o the trade rule is awful i mean you help other people pokedex in the game grow which is okay but 2 for 1 is wrong because its classed as giving an haunter for example for a vulpix then getting a gengar straght back i mean my haunter is level 80 on pokemon blue and i'm not evolving him yet
I only like the trade rule because its different to the old give them a item or level them up way of evolving. Besides, I hated it as first, but it's kinda grew on me. On the older version I guess its more of a problem since you have to get the right link cable and 2 Gameboy Advance SP's, Gameboy Advances, Gameboy Colours or Gameboys. Though in generation IV, its no so bad since you hve WiFi (though you have to watch out for scammers) and dont need a link cable.

I actually think the way they're doing Arceus kinda works, since it's Level 100 and can't be raised any further, and anybody good should be able to work their way around it in battle. Anybody who's going to use that thing over Wi-Fi probably won't be that good anyway. Especially if they keep those moves.

Trade evolutions are really dumb, though, since what happens to people who don't have any friends who play the games and don't have the money to buy a second game and system?

NINTENDO's actions can be surprising at times: they make a giveaway event for a pokemon that CANNOT be used in Battle Revolution, Battle Frontier etc. etc. and yet they have the arrogant thought of making it divinely uber, tutoring it 4 massive-damage moves and raising it to Lv100.
I can make a quick prediction: by the time the event takes place in the U.S., the NINTENDO staff will make sure that it takes place in a central state and only for a very short period of time. In doing so, a large variety of pokemon fans will - once again - be unable even to reach the location in time, just like it happened with all the other events since Deoxys............................
Let's PRAY that it takes place in Eastern Honolulu and only for 2 seconds, so that noone gets this four-legged cheating machine!

The thing regarding the Arceus is, it's given out at level 100, meaning it will be totally void of EV's.

But does this mean Arceus is tournament legal in Ubers?

most people aren't even going to care anyway since Arceus is banned in OU.


Fun fact of the week: Did you know that with 252 SpD EVs, Bold Cloyster's SpD increases by 50%?

Okaaaay, so how else are we going to get it then?
Ash releases strong pokemon and Paul releases weak pokemon.Ash=stupid,Paul=smart.
Congratulations! Your Super Smash Bros. Melee has evolved into Super Smash Bros. Brawl!
Super Smash Bros. Brawl wants to learn the character Lucario.
However, Super Smash Bros. Brawl already knows four pokemon characters.
Should a character be deleted and replaced with Lucario?
Which character should be forgotten?
1,2, and... ... ... Poof!
Super Smash Bros. Brawl forgot Mewtwo.
And...
Super Smash Bros. Brawl learned Lucario!

What is so wrong about having Arceus as an event. It was only a matter of time before they did one anyway, and I don't think it is a bad idea at all. I mean they had other events with Uber strong Pokémon, it makes no difference at all. I think it is fine and is pretty exciting to have a Pokémon such as Arceus in your game...If you want to use it in batte, the Uber tier is the way to go, but other than that...it goes by the two trainer's set of rules...

I think Arceus in general is the worst Pokémon idea ever...I mean, this guy is apparently the god of the Pokémon universe, yet you can stick him in a tiny handheld ball and he will obey your every command? WTF?

Anyway, like other people said, this Arceus isn't actually that bad since it won't have any EVs. I mean, it'll still have massive stats, but no more massive than most other Ubers that you CAN EV train.

Where is the event taking place? In all countries?

That aside, I think people will still use other Pokemon, for the challenge and the fun... Heck I use almost all dragon Pokemon, and I refuse to use a legendary. But to have Arceus among other things would be cool.

I just looked online, the Japanese release date of the movie will start the event, in Japan only it seems. (July 19th)
However no American, etc. event was mentioned or announced.

I had originally thought the event was being released June 18th, and ironically I would have been in the US at the time.

I think we'll have to be trading with our Japanese counterparts for now ;D

Yeah I don't think its that a big deal anyways, I mean 90% of the people who have Arceus cheated for him so at least less people will need to cheat, anyways if your a serious competitor online you usually wont stoop to using Ubers unless its an uber match, and if it is an uber match does it realy matter considering your whole team is full of legends and such?
