    next week, they are distributing an event Dragonite.

    https://xy6.pokemontcgxy.com/distro.php?lang=en_US

    So. . . . What's so special about it?

    Can't we just breed and raise our own Dragonite with near perfect IV's? This Dragonite doesn't seem shiny nor does it hold a rare and special dragonite only item like I heard rumors about. . I don't know, what does the forum think?
     
    Hm, hopefully it'll have a pretty sweet event move rather than just egg move(s). Dragonite is also one of the few Pokemon I prefer not-shiny, it just looks odd to me otherwise.
    And thanks for the heads up on this. :D I'll likely be heading to Gamestop next week anyway to pre-order Battlefront 3.
     
    to quote Serebii from last month:

    A new event has been announced for the US. From June 22nd to July 12th you can go to Gamestop to get a serial code to receive a special Dragonite. It knows the move Dragon Dance, Outrage, Hurricane and Extremespeed, which is a difficult move to get on Dragonite, and has its Hidden Ability of Multiscale and holds a Lum Berry, all to coincide with today's release of the Roaring Skies TCG set. We'll bring more as it comes.

    Nothing special, but I'm picking it up anyhow, it's a freaking dragon, man!
     
    most of the people I know outside of PC don't breed, so I can see them getting pretty hyped for this "special" Dragonite. I will go just so I can get it in a cherish ball :P
     
    While it may not look special on paper, the fact it has the hidden ability + Extreme Speed (which is usually only obtainable from the Dratini obtained in HG/SS, a time when hidden abilities were still not a thing) might be what makes it worth obtaining, especially if you're a competitive player.

    To build on to what Hikamaru said, not everyone who has OR/AS has access to X/Y. The Dratini line can only be found in the latter games; they're unavailable in OR/AS. This even applies to the OR/AS players who haven't had luck getting Dratini or its evolved forms over at Wonder Trade or the GTS.
     
    Granted i am new to the dorums but ill be mass producing 4/5 iv dratini's. Doing deinos and goomys as we speak to get a perfect iv. Working the next four days so wont be able to trade anything til monday.
     
    They have a lot of events of normal Pokemon and I guess they're special BECAUSE of that haha. I'll still be picking up the Dragonite because I love Dragons, but it's not really that unusual to see a "normal" Pokemon.

    I thought Extreme Speed was now an egg move this gen?


    I'll see if I'm able to go to my local Gamestop to download Dragonite, because I barely play with my 3DS no thanks to Splatoon's addictiveness.
     
    Adding on to RNC, just remember the codes are one-use only so if you want more you need to get more codes. It's a painful process but it's basically how event distributions are being set up this generation.

    I have 8 codes already, I will be giving to those that don't have a GS or what not.

    Just a question, when I downloaded this it said "battle ready" how can it be if the 1st one I got only had IVs in HP?

    It looks nice but it would really help if it wasn't only for ORAS... even though it advertises an XY set of trading cards. That makes a lot of sense, guys. :\
