I think I traded my Magmar away straight away.
Wow that is so disappointing. What's the point of an event Pokemon if it doesn't have anything special going for it? Given how often Europe and Australia get the short end of the stick event-wise, I'd be reeling for them.

You go to the store and straight up ask: "yo I want my code for Magmar and Electabuzz"?

Is there anything special about these Magmars and Electabuzzes? If not, I'm not missing out on anything since I already have both of them and their evolutions on Y.

Doesn't really look like it. Both have Vital Spirit which I think is HA, Static and Flamebody are somewhat better. Sleep prevention is ok, but I don't think its OMG amazing. Electivire loses out on Motor Drive which is better IMO.

They're not set to have perfect IVs, but it is possible to SR for them to have good IVs. When I picked up my WalMart Garchomp, I SR'd and ended up with one that had 2 perfect 31 IVs. So it's possible. Not sure if this will be allowed here since it's not in TC, but if anyone is interested in trading these, I'll trade you a Kalos bred flawless shiny for each of them. VM me if you want :P

So they come with their hidden abilities... that's at least pretty decent, and nice starting movesets as well although I do agree with you that Electivire's normal ability is usually the better one. And as Dylan stated last post, they can apparently be soft reset for IVs. And I assume both have Naughty nature because their stat screen shows Attack highlighted in red (raised) and Sp. Defense in blue (lowered).

I guess it is a pretty boring event if you don't care for HA Pokémon in Cherish Balls. :P At least it's better than Walmart Scizor/Garchomp (the only XY event we've had in the US apart from Torchic/Celebi and you'd have to pay $40 for them).

They can be any nature, thankfully. I guess whomever Khrysta got their screenshots from just likes Naughty Pokémon. :p

So, Magamar and Electabuzz. Pokémon X and Y. Icephycinizer for Jynx in Pokémon Z! Why are we not funding this?

Anyway, back to making a post of relevance. This isn't Pokémon distribution at its finest, but it's something for us in the UK. I have a Magmar friend safari and I'm on X. hurr durr my life is meaningless. Rather than having their regular abilities, prevention from sleep is cool. To my knowledge and experience, sleep isn't used very much competitively. But maybe I'm just an oblivious douchebag. Most likely the latter. But still, like others have mentioned, having a Magmar in a Cherish Ball is just novel.

Will get, but want to know if GAME get a certain amount to stock or they keep getting ships coming in. Don't want to waste my time going somewhere to then be disappointed. :(
