I don't know how you managed that O_o

I beat Platinum in 30 hours taking my time.

Question:
Does anybody know when and if there's a event for the Enigma Stone?
Or if they are EVER going to release the Platinum update for Ranch?

July 31 and by Wi-Fi for the Stone, and probably never on the Ranch update.

The Ranch update was confirmed to never be happening outside of Japan.

It only took me 25 hours to finish Diamond...and Platinum doesn't have much more content than D/P...and I was taking my time... o_0

[Mr. Joker]

WPM stepped in it this time.

[Indragon]

Hm...didn't know Japanese laws were that rough. Seems a bit unfair to WPM, to be honest.

That's hilarious. I think the stance he's taking on this is all wrong.

The major difference here is that Bulbagarden and Serebii aren't breaking the law themselves. The worst they could get is a C&D or be told to remove some images or what have you. He broke the law, knowingly.

Looks like the article's been removed, but still...At a time like this, you have to be tough...

When is the pikach wii game coming out in the USA?

Holiday 2010.

[Pingouin7]

Posting to say Ash's Pikachu is now up on Wi-Fi.
Seems like Serebii forgot about time zones differences.
It's actually up since half an hour earlier from now.

Pre order bonuses announced. If serebii's going to post them he probably will when he wakes up, if not he probably isn't going to post them.
Anyways, keychains that play sound effects of the legend for the version, +screencleaner if you get both. Kinda lame compared to the awesome pre order bonuses 4th gen had (though what was the bonus for both diamond and pearl? I know the stiluses, which were cool, and all the other versions had those good figures. Not a whole lot, but better than the pre order bonuses most games have. And the styluses were just as awesome as the one the dsixl comes with)

[Shdwlugia122]

Hey, I have a weird post...
Umm.. I'm a platinum, diamond and soul silver hacker. And I hacked a level 100 shiny arceus, and I did the arceus factor for platinum! Without the special arceus!

The FR/LG pre-orders only came with a small unhelpful book and a keychain.

This isn't the worst pre-order we've ever had. What are you expecting? Stiluses and figurines are pretty much the limit...

Well, a screencleaner is pretty lame, for BOTH of the games.
You got a special stylus for D/P? That's pretty cool.
In the shop where I bought my Diamond (in the Netherlands), we got just a keychain with Dialga or Palkia's Sugimori art on the keychain.
We got the figures of Ho-Oh or Lugia, but Í couldn't get a Arceus figure.

[Serebii]

Those pre-order bonuses are only pre-order bonuses if you pre-order at the Pokémon Centres in Japan. This is why I haven't reported on them
