Luckily I didn't buy White 2 yet, I might resort to buying a copy and getting the Sinnoh Starter choice of mine after all.

Deoxys event

Something about Life Orb and It's in a Dusk Ball?

Deoxys event

Awesome! Most likely the US will get it too...it's annoying when they have LV100 event Pokemon though. Although Join Avenue can fix this after alot of ranking up

[Moonlight_Tails]

Cool, Hope it does come to US. I need a Legit Deoxys. The one I have I hacked from Platinum

[BGMaxie]

Deoxys is boss, I want him '-'

Deoxys event

Finally, been ages since a proper Deoxys event iirc
Looks like this one gets Nasty Plot, which is new to it


Guessing this is to coincide with the new TCG set

edit: It never got Dark Pulse before now?!

edit: It never got Dark Pulse before now?!

The only Psychic-types to learn Dark Pulse are Elgyem/Beheeyem (via tutor), Gothita (via Egg - no tutor), Sigilyph (via tutor), and Mew (via past TM and tutor, but Mew gets all of those anyway). It's not well distributed amongst Psychic-types, especially pre-Gen V.

I did get three of the ones from Guardian Signs, two of which know Meteor Mash. It's a good thing I had a friend willing to do the co-op mission with me.

However, Deoxys is always a cool Pokemon, so I would like to get this one as well.

Maybe the Nasty Plot/Dark Pulse/Dusk Ball is making a "dark" reference.

I guess I always just assumed Psychic types got it since so many got Shadow Ball

Well this is interesting. First time an event Pokemon is inside a Dusk Ball instead of a Poke Ball or a Cherish Ball.

I wonder what's with all the dark stuffs, though. Dusk Ball, Nasty Plot, Dark Pulse....

And I hope the event becomes an international Wi-Fi event. I already have two Deoxys (one of them is a legit shiny, in fact ) but I won't mind another one, especially if it has special moves on it.



EDIT : nevermind, according to google translate apparently the dark stuffs has something to do with Team Plasma

[YourPermanentRecord631]

This is sweet, I can imagine the calcs after a Nasty Plot from Psycho Shift from Deoxys-A.

That just makes it more interesting. Now I have to know about it.

[Street Comedy]

Nasty Plot on Deoxys?

Sorry, I need to change my pants.

Deoxys (And Thundurus-T) are the "leads" in the latest TCG

Oh duh >-< my bad. I remember hearing about those a while ago and figured Deoxys would get the Mewtwo and Darkrai treatment too

[Street Comedy]

I'm so making this Deoxys a Speed, it's my favorite of his formes.

[Excitable Boy]

Eh, I'm not so sure about NP Deoxys. Normal and Attack are so frail that I can't imagine anyone being stupid enough to let them set up. Speed and Defense I could see tripping up people who were expecting a Spiker, but even after the boost I'm not sure how hard they'd hit. Calcs, someone?

I, for one, am disappointed.

Focus Sash, maybe Substitute? So I guess a few months until we hear if anyone else gets it? I think that's how it usually is

[Excitable Boy]

Focus Sash,

Broken by entry hazards and sandstorm. Not reliable.

maybe Substitute?

On Deo-N/A? They're so fragile, what's the point? No one's going to status them, and a single hit will destroy the Sub anyway.

I guess, but Substitute also works in the "oh no he's faster and will KO me...I'm gonna switch". Although they'd know that it would be Nasty Plot or a Sub

[Codface]

Dout it will go international. The Kyogue/Grouden a while back didnt and they were a shop/mall event. Same with the elite glodal link battlers.

Sure they'd do something legendary event wise internationally for christmas right?....right?

This is different. Event only Pokémon like Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, Deoxys, Darkrai, Shaymin, etc usually go international. Plus we got Mewtwo and Darkrai just like Japan

...not necessarily, no...
