Pokémon X & Y - Charizard Event

For those of you in the UK, a new event has been announced. If you go to GAME, you will have the ability to download a Charizard, either via Nintendo Zone or through a Serial Code if asked for at the till. This event mimics the event that was in Japan earlier this year and offers a Charizard that will come with the Charizardite Y if you connect with Pokémon X or Charizardite X if you connect with Pokémon Y. It will run from July 11th to August 10th

As part of the annual Tanabata Festival in Japan, a new distribution will take place at the Pokémon Center in Tohoku. This event will give you a Level 10 Shiny Jirachi. This Jirachi has the moves Wish, Swift, Healing Wish & Moonblast while holding a Star Piece, and will be given from August 1st to August 31st. We'll bring more details as it comes. Our Event Database has been updated with details of this event

Pokémon X & Y

It has been confirmed through an advert in Nat Geo magazine that two special events are coming to North America. These events are based on Mega Evolutions. First, from August 13th to September 17th, you will be able to download Heracross or Pinsir to your X & Y games over the Internet. In addition to that, if you go to Gamestop stores from August 18th to August 31st, you'll be able to receive a special serial code to download the Heracronite or Pinsirite Mega Stones. We'll provide full details on this event as it comes, including if it is in other regions.
Edit @ 16:02: Heracross comes at Level 50 with the moves Bullet Seed, Pin Missile, Close Combat, and Megahorn and will download to Pokémon X while Pinsir also comes at Level 50 with the moves X-Scissor, Earthquake, Stone Edge, and Return and will download to Pokémon Y. Their abilities are random and they both have a set nature of Adamant. The Mega Stone event sends Heracronite to Pokémon X and Pinsirite to Pokémon Y.

This event is running in conjunction with an event running in Gamestop from Monday next week where you can download their specific Mega Stone. Be sure to download today

Hey guys, maybe you can help me with this problem:

years ago i finished playing pokemon channel and got a jirachi for that. since that day it sits on my
pokemon ruby version. yesterday, i downloaded the poke-mover and tried to transfer it from black 2 to my pokemon x edition
and it didnt work because something was wrong with the pokemon. this is the only "event", well cant even say event-pokemon i have and i researched
this problem on the internet and most of the people said that only cheated pokemon cant be transferred? well my jirachi is not cheated, its the original jirachi from pokemon channel,.. do you guys know any solution to this problem? i'd be glad to hear some
Jindujun93
Is your Jirachi by any chance a shiny one? I've researched a bit on that, and apparently any Shiny Jirachi won't go through no matter whether it's legit or not (you could reset the one you got from Channel to get a shiny one), so that might be the reason for your problems.

No its not even a shiny one, its a regular jirachi, i didnt do anything with it!
Azure_Kite
This may be silly, but by any chance is your gamecube and pokemon channel NTSC?
Katze
No, both are PAL.
NaomiMinette
WISHMKR Jirachi (Pokémon Colosseum Bonus Disc) can go through fine...
Azure_Kite
From brief research on the matter, Pokemon Channel Jirachi should be fine, too.

Is there another pokemon in your party that could be causing the error? What happens if you catch a magikarp or something generic in Black 2, then only have that and Jirachi in your party?
Katze
sorry for replying so late! i tried what you said and i can't transfer it. from what i've googled it should be fine too, but it won't let me transfer it. i've tried multiple legendaries now and they all work, just my jirachi can't move.
Stefan
Maybe the moves are the issue? This can if the pokemon has something that the Pokemover doesn't accept it for whatever reasons cause this Problem. (Would wonder what moves Blaze's WISHMKR Jirachi has to compare it with Katze's one)
Azure_Kite
By the looks of it, unlikely.

The ones (yes, multiple) I transferred had Psychic, Shadow Ball, Signal Beam, & Water Pulse, and they all checked out fine. Dunno what's Katze's Jirachi's problem =/

(And I doubt this has any relevancy, but all the Jirachi I transferred had Pokérus.)
Jindujun93
After doing some research on it, >>this here<< seems to be the most likely issue. Now while this guide talks about it appearing while generating Pokemon, it actually applies to some Pokemon you caught normally in Gen 3 as well. I don't know the exact mechanics behind it, nor will I do further research on it to try to understand it, but apparently when you transfer Pokemon from Generation 3 to Generation 4, sometimes a portion of the bytes gets converted into those 'trash bytes'. From what I gather it seems to come from combinations in terms of OT name, name of the Pokemon and a few internal values you won't see anyways.
Now I don't know how close this actually is to the real reason why that Jirachi won't get transferred over, but it does seem to be at least a possible solution.
Azure_Kite
It's no solution, really. It involves using PokeEdit/equivalent to forcibly change the Jirachi. That would (in their case), involve either an R4'd DS and some technical shenaniganry, or a USB dongle that extracts the .sav file from the nds cartridge for use on the PC.

At that point it would be easier to forge your own pokemon than it would be to try and fix this one.
Jindujun93
My bad, wrong choice of words. Didn't mean to say possible solution, but rather possible cause.
Just wanted to point out it's a possibility anyways - might be that this one won't be able to get over at all.
Katze
I didn't mean to cause any problems guys! If I can't trade it, then it's perfectly fine for me. The whole point of my first post was to ask you if you had any solutions for this because I didn't get why it wouldn't transfer. A Jirachi is, as far as I know not even needed to complete the Pokedex? If so, I can live with it being on my Black 2, if it is needed, I'm sure I can find someone on here who is willing to trade it with me (just for the Pokedex entry)! I'm happy about all the help I got and I'm just posting this to let you guys know that suggestions are welcome but you don't really need to get out of your way to help me and solve this completely!
Jindujun93
Luckily, to get the completition reward of the Pokedex Jirachi (as well as any other event Pokemon) isn't required. If you want it to be truly completed, you can of course always ask somebody to trade it to you, naturally.
NaomiMinette
Well... considering event Pokémon can't even be Wonder Traded, I've been stuck with like 70 (originally 100) extra WISHMKR Jirachi ever since February. If you really want one, you'll have to PM me a time that works for you. (Yes, this also applies to everyone else here.)
Azure_Kite
I would really love to get one, myself. It is the only Legendary I actually need to complete my dex apart from Mew.
Jindujun93
Same here, if you could spare one. Right now I don't really have the time to trade, though since Jirachi is one of the only two entries I'm missing that offer would actually be rather nice. Will probably contact you later.

Also, I could provide that Mew for you, Azure_Kite. Just send me a message at some point and I'll see what we can do about that.

Could've sworn I gave you a Jirachi already... but if I didn't, I'm really sorry x.x

Also, though I do have a spare Mew, I can't transfer it at the moment (it's stuck on my White 2, and I didn't renew my Pokémon Bank pass).

Try to get ahold of me when it's like the afternoon or nighttime for you. Trade complete!

Get on altwfc and I'll take that Mew off your hands. :P
NaomiMinette
For those who haven't gotten the Pokémon Bank Celebi yet, you'd better grab it while you can--the distribution ends after the end of this month.

Pumpkaboo is one of the cutest (newer) Pokémon, I'll sure get one.
And yeah, it's never too early for Halloween!

For some reasons Pumpkaboo reminds me of Pyro Jack from Persona.

Pokémon X & Y - Mega Gengar Event

For those of you in North America, the Shiny Mega Gengar distribution event has begun. This event runs until October 26th 2014 and gives you a special shiny Gengar which knows the special move Sludge Wave and holds a Gengarite. This event is a Serial Code event and requires going to a store in order to receive the code, which is then redeemed in Mystery Gift. If you are in the United States, you can get this code in Gamestop. If you are in Canada, you can get it from participating EB Games stores. If you are in Mexico, it can be received from GamePlanet and in Chile it can be obtained from Microplay.
EDIT: The Diancie distribution even has gone live in Canada, United States, and Mexico. Please remember that Diancie canNOT Mega Evolve in X/Y; you'll need to transfer it to Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire and get its Mega Stone there.
