Slight error on WiFi events page, the new Pikachu is downloadable only to Japanese HG/SS games, not Japanese D/P/Pt.

I've just tried to download the Pikachu, and only HG/SS were able to download the Pikachu.

Official site says it's all games. Are you sure you dont just have no spare wonder card slots?

Hmm, just had other reports. Must be a glitch in their system

I've got two empty wondercard slots on my JP Diamond and one empty slot on my JP Platinum, so no issues there.

Filb.de did mention the same as you, in that the Official Site basically says across all DS games, but Filb also said, that as of right now they couldn't download anything with their JP Copies of D/P/Pt.

In the new Suicune Pokémon of the Week, it says that Bold nature reduces Speed on the first set, when it reduces Attack. On the second set, it says that Timid reduces Special Attack when it reduces Attack. Strangely, on the other two sets, these natures are described correctly.

Several attack names are incorrect on this game mechanics page and many also have broken links.

Also, I have noticed possible misspellings in many of the Pokemon of the Week pages (including the most recent update - Suicune). I am assuming this is a website based in America (if I'm wrong, just ignore this part), therefore offense is spelled as I have just spelled it, not "offence".

That page hasn't been updated...I'll get to it when I have time

As for the offense/offence issue. That's due to the Proper English/American English divide. I try to keep this site an Earthican site, but as both the Pokémon of the Week writer and I are English, we tend to lean towards the true English spelling as you can see through the site with words such as "centre" "colour" "apologise" etc.
