How likely is it that we get information about Movie 16 (poster/trailer/plot details along those lines) on Pokemon Smash tonight?

I wouldn't get too excited since Smash usually airs nothing interesting 91% of the time but yeah a trailer of M16 featuring the legendaries would be nice to see.

I thought today's Smash was the one about the movie that we learned about a few weeks ago? I might be wrong.

Just came up on site saying the UK Meloetta Event has been announced. Finally.

[mitchman_93]

The first issue goes on sale on 20 March and costs £3.99 but if you subscribe now you can get the first three issues for £5. So not only will you be getting the first magazine with four free Pokemon gifts but you'll also receive two further issues in April and May for little more than the price of a single magazine.

Four free gifts? For starters, there's a massive double-sided poster featuring the final evolutions of Pokemon Black and White Starters Tepig, Oshawott and Snivy. Who wouldn't want Emboar, Serperior and Samurott on their wall?

We've also got a Pokemon sticker sheet featuring Pokemon Black and White 2 cover star Kyurem, plus Reshiram, Zekrom and many more.

Then there are some Pokemon door hangers with Pikachu on one side and Meowth on the other.

Finally, you'll also get four Pokemon badges featuring Tepig, Snivy, Oshawott and Pikachu.

Also, each issue will come with a free gift, so there will be further Pokemon goodies to look forward to in April and May.

13 issues of the Official Pokemon Magazine will be released a year, all edited by ONM Editor-in-Chief Chandra Nair.

Like the sound of that? Subscribe now for £5!

Official Pokemon Magazine starting next month in the UK. Said this on BMGF as well, its absolute bull to have a magazine for the franchise, an official one no less, except for a quick buck.

Yeah I can't say I'll be picking it up. I can't see it having much thats worth reading that we won't already know elsewhere. Plus anything noteworthy Serebii will post, so yeah, I'm gonna pass.

New (Sugimori by the looks of it) art of Red and Blue! I wonder if a clean version will become available?

Not new, we've had that for a couple of years

[SprSncConzor]

Ah OK. Since Blue's in his HG/SS attire, I believe this is the only art of Red from the Gold/Silver era! It's cool to see him drawn in Sugimori's updated style (The eyes are slightly different but overall haven't changed much since FR/LG).

Sorry for posting old news!

Is there any way to see which EB Games stores will be hosting the Meloetta event? I don't wanna have to go to a store only to find out that they're not doing it. (would be nice if they actually have a list of participating stores).

Which EB Games stores? Those located in Australia or in Canada? There's a list for Australia here.

Ah, I should've specified...Canada.

[The Eleventh]

The reduced price for Pokédex iOS in euro is €0.89, if you're wondering. I'm not sure of the prices for the additional regions, since they've chosen not to include those in the description, nor am I willing to pay for such an app.

Ah, I should've specified...Canada.

I don't believe there's a list of stores for Canada, unfortunately. You could try calling them.

[Hydrohs]

Ah, I should've specified...Canada.

It should be all of them. But as mentioned, might as well just call your local store to make sure.

[BurningWhiteKyurem]

I'll give a couple of stores a shot (the mall near me should be popular enough to warrant a meloetta event). If not, I'll contact some stores to see if they're doing it. Fingers Crossed.

Official Pokemon Magazine starting next month in the UK. Said this on BMGF as well, its absolute bull to have a magazine for the franchise, an official one no less, except for a quick buck.

I think the Magazine is solely for collectors in mind.
UK sales for pokemon B2/W2 were horrible, so it only makes sense for pokemon to try and hype up there advertiseing in the UK especially if they are spending big bucks to launch a game World Wide, were global sales will actually affect the franchise...

Personally I'm actually planning on buying a years subsription, I don't see wynaut,
Just for shits and giggles I guess.<3

[Ledyba]

Any news on Meloetta coming to the Netherlands? Would be a shame if we didn't get her.

UK sales for Pokémon Black and White 2 weren't "horrible" as they reached number 1 and 2 in the DS sales chart and 3 and 5 in the all format charts. Furthermore why would they create an entire magazine just to advertise Pokémon when they can easily and cheaply do it in the Nintendo Magazine.

Pokémon is doing fine in the UK.

Official Japanese Youtube posted two new trailers: "Mewtwo" Confirmed to appear in the Genesect Movie. Sylveon is Confirmed for the short, with all other the Eevelutions and Eevee. Trailers are 1:30 and 0:30 long and use the same clips.

Give the what Serebii said on the main site, you'll know why I've deliberately chosen to use Quotes for Mewtwo. Well, Mew did not appear in The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon, but something that is like Mew did.

[TheEliteEmpoleon]

That trailer is nice! I must admit, that shiny Genesect is awesome, and Mewtwo is as cool as ever. I hope this movie is better than Keldeo's...

[halloweenghost]

yeah but we'll just have to see what it means with We don't know the real Mewtwo...
