Well, yah I've preordered Alpha Sapphire. I'm not too sure I think the Shiny Metang with the Mega Stone is a preorder bonus.
Shiny Beldum w/ mega stone is a wifi event like Torchic w/ mega stone was in X&Y - not a pre order bonus.

idk about pre order bonuses but I think in the US, gamestop gives you a poster, walmart gives you a figure, and if you pre order both at Toys R Us you get either a mega charizard X or Y plush. UK i think you get the steelbook + figure if you pre order from the nintendo store.
Ok thanks i got mine from Amazon uk there wasn't a bonus I think :)
If you don't mind paying a teensy bit extra, go with GAME if you want a pre-order bonus: they come with very nice Primal Kyogre/Primal Groudon figurines. If you've got money to throw away, they do expensive steelbook editions without the figurines too. Or, if you don't want to pay extra and want a pre-order bonus, ShopTo offer a Torchic keyring with either version...not as awesome as figurines, but still. xD

I've gone with the standard editions at GAME, because the figurines are nice. I'm hovering over preordering the guide as well, if only because mother and I have bought guidebooks for every other Pokemon game to date...not that I ever saw the X/Y one, because she's kept it in her room. Don't really need them, but they're good quality, so why not?

I preordered Pokemon Alpha Sapphire at GameStop months ago. Course I will be getting a double sided preorder bonus. Now I have to wait until next Friday for it to come out.

I have pre-ordered both the steelbooks from the Nintendo shop, hopefully they will arrive on the 28th since they are coming straight from Nintendo. I'm also downloading both from the Japanese e-shop on my Japanese N3DS, maybe not directly on release since I'm working but probably on the 22nd.

I will be playing both Sword and Shield (Mainly Sword) so can trade for exclusives from both!

At first I wanted to get it on the e-shop but I recently got an SD card corruption by just turning on my 3DS in the morning after everything was fine the night before, I ended up losing 100+ hours of Bravely Default and the ORAS demo saved gamebut I still managed to save Fantasy Life save file. Also since pokemon cannot backup save files it's better that it save on cartridge instead of an SD card.

I was originally going to wait until the 22nd, but I decided to cut that and pre-order them. I have both versions on my money, so i'll have them ready.

North America really got the short end of the stick this time around for preorder bonuses... That being said I do have Alpha Sapphire preordered and also have money just sitting on my eshop account to get Omega Ruby digitally.
