The official website for the Pokémon World Championships has revealed the special distribution for the 2010 Worlds Championships, which begins August 13th and runs through the 15th. A Crobat holding a Life Orb will be distributed to any attendees that use the Mystery Gift option on their main series Generation IV games.

Dat Crobat.

Not my choice but I'm sure some will like it.

Oh Lord, please don't tell me it's going to be an ExtremeKiller...

I think it's also over wifi... but isn't the enigma event still going on?

No, it's going on in HAWAII over Wifi. No where else. Which means the Enigma Stone will stay up.

Only in Hawaii!? I feel that's favoritism. Florida is too far from Hawaii. Although, I love their punch.

I don't see how it's favouritism. It's a World Championship exclusive event, and the World Championships this year are in Hawaii. Just as it was in San Diego last year, Florida the year before, and Hawaii again back in 2007.

I wish I could go and download one... hopefully I'll be able to trade for one; I've got some good stuff.

Well, I know that, but why not as a promotion in all 50 states?

Why not Canada, too? We always get ripped off. This isn't a retail event, though. If it were distributed everywhere in North America, it would hardly be very unique. This is a special giveaway for those who attend the World Championship. Why should it be given out elsewhere? That's what the shiny Eevee given out at American VGC competitions was for.

Also, it's not limited to just US players (people from all over the world compete at this one). There'll be Wondercard distributions for all 6 languages that Pokemon games are sold in.

 

[Mijumaru]

Is the distribution in the entire state?

Is the distribution in the entire state?

No, just at whatever location the World Championships are being held.

 

[Mijumaru]

In the city or location?

 

[TM2-Megatron]

In the city or location?

Just the location. I'm not sure whether it's a local wireless or slot-2 distribution, but either way you can only get it at the actual location the World Championships are being held.

But I thought the event was only from the 13th to the 15th? Is the place a hotel or something?

It's only on the 15th; and only for 2 hours per language. You can see it on the schedule:

Special Character Distribution – English, Italian, French
11:00 A.M. – 1:00 P.M.

Special Character Distribution – Japanese, German, Spanish
2:00 P.M. – 4:00 P.M.

I'm not sure if it'll be at a hotel or some kind of convention centre. But I added this Crobat to the event thread in the Video Game section yesterday evening:

It's good that the Crobat comes with a Life Orb (a pretty rare item). But all I want to know is the level, gender and moves the Crobat will have.

It's male, Timid, level 30. The moves aren't known yet.

 

[PlatinumDude]

Didn't see those. I'm thinking the moves would be:
-Nasty Plot
-Air Slash (yes, I know it doesn't have that until level 51)
-Sludge Bomb
-(filler move, possibly Dark Pulse/Shadow Ball/Heat Wave)

 

[Mijumaru]

But it's strange how it's being given away until the 25th, not the 15th.
