• Hi all
    Just a notice, we recently discovered that someone got into a moderator account and started hard deleting a load of key and legacy threads...around 150 threads have been lost dating back to 2007 and some weeks ago so we can't roll the forums back.
    Luckily no personal data could be accessed by this moderator, and we've altered the permissions so hard deleting isn't possible in the future
    Sorry for any inconvenience with this and sorry for any lost posts.

Really? I'm surprised about this. In what way? I'm new to Nintendo DS and everything so I honestly don't know that much when it comes to this stuff. I always thought R4's were like what i-Pods were to CD's, in the sense you could store all the games you bourght onto one cartridge to make it more convenient.

The thing is, you can also store games you haven't bought on them.

Who had all these event Pokemon? Some of the people who were at the event or were they being distributed at the event too?

Anyway, although I didn't go, a friend traded me his Oxford Arceus and sent me some interesting pictures. Did anyone here cosplay?

Not going myself as there's no events in the area. Instead, I gave a mate my games and he's going to one today

They weren't legit events anyway, because you cannot get japanese wondercard events on english games. It was just some person with an R4 distributing them.

I see, that can be quite annoying. I thought there were people there just showing them off, I never would've thought there were people their using such methods just to excite people/give them hacked Pokemon. That's just wrong. Hope we don't see more of this at other Arceus distributions, it's pathetic.

Got my Arceus today! He's awesome! Thank god I didn't run into any of those 'events'. Took an hour when I got Shaymin, today I got him immediately - good that I didn't have to wait.
Originally I wasn't planning to try out HeartGold and SoulSilver, but in the end I did. I caught a Rattata for the next person to name. Then my parents pried me away because I should wait for when I get my copy. You just can't win!
Overall a nice day. Hope you enjoyed your day too!

I went to the Meadowhall event yesterday, but i wouldn't even call it an event, some woman was walking around with the wifi thing in her bumbag and we had to ask her to put our DS'S really close to it. What happened to the machines where you can just pick it up with out problems?. All in all this is the worst event i have ever been too.

DON'T SAY THINGS LIKE THAT ABOUT MEADOWHALL.

Obviously you haven't been to the Saturday Regigigas Event in Nottingham (Village Fete). Thanks to Kyogre and its torrential downpour, it was a complete washout. Miserable.

But if you DID go to Meadowhall, you'd have seen me, the Zangoose cosplayer!

And who had the Pikachu Hat? She heard there'd be a Zangoose cosplayer from Serebii, and said so!

I went to the meadowhall event, although I didn't see a Zangoose cosplayer :D. Although I didn't have the same troubles as Kaasuti, I just stood in a random spot and downloaded the mystery gift. I got a totodile painted on my face (hehe), played a little bit of HGSS (wierdly, the only pokémon was a pidgey..) AND got an Arceus figure, which I didn't think was going to be available, without pre-ordering :D.

Overall quite a good day, but I was only there for about half an hour, talked to some of my fellow Pokémon players :D.

I went to the Belfast one and it was amazing. Met some really nice people; I'm always my most social at pokémon events. Can't wait for more!

Well, you turn up; download an Arceus (or 13 if you're me) and then if you want, socialise with the other pokénerds there.​

Reading is just a short train journey for me... but I've never done these 'events' before, how do they work?

Well in a nutshell:

Well, you turn up; download an Arceus (or 13 if you're me) and then if you want, socialise with the other pokénerds there.​

But there are other factors. You have to search for the Wonder Card first, which can be a hassle if you aren't within range. You have to select Mystery Gift, go to obtain gift via Wireless, then you have to search for a gift.
