Reminder: Grab a Mythical Diancie in Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire This Weekend

I haven't gotten mine yet, thanks for the heads up.

you can 'rock' up--- yknow, diancie, rock yeahhhh

ingenius ^_^

Didn't even know Diancie was out yet, nor have I touched ORAS since launched. Thanks for the heads up, that would have probably been the 30th event I missed and probably the 5th one for ORAS I miss (even though I still got the Eon Ticket when I got it, my New 3DS screwed me over by deleting my save file).

Just Diancie... Pull out your red ball and use it now...

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz....huh? Wait? A wi-fi event? I don't have to go to the store I can't get to?! About time. And for a legendary too. Been a few years since that's happened, last I checked.

I think I'm still missing a Gen V Legend or two. Still need Meloetta.

Thanks for telling us, I didn't know!

Got promotional code for Diancie and shiny Mega Gengar, when I bought Pokemon Omega Ruby day one. Having another Diancie is tempting to me.

X/Y users are not included? Bleh!

Why don't you have ORAS?

Got mine already. I hope they announce another mystery gift soon. I love getting them. I hate that Japan gets tons and we only get a few here and there. It's like Game Freak could care less about Westerners. Sorry just had to rant a little lol

Thanks for reminding me about ORAS. Having only 3 gym badges is somewhat humiliating.

Thanks for the reminder!

It's very nice that we got Diancie again, my EB Games ran out of codes the first time Diancie was being distributed.

Great! I had no idea, thanks for the heads up!

Diancie number 2? Maybe I can trade it for the one legendary I don't have, couldn't for the life of me find a Shaymin.

Thanks for posting an article about this. I missed out on her last time she was available and I'd have missed her again if I didn't see this

I guess Diancie is supposed to be Kalos mythical Pokemon? (and it looks like indeed it was originally released in Japan last year through local wireless for X/Y)
So it's ridiculous you can't get one with a Kalos game (I suppose Nintnedo didn't want players doubling up. Still a shame that once ORAS was released XY was basically thrown under the bus.)
Then again, I think Nintendo Network uses some kind of lockout that prevents you from getting more than one on the same console? (it does warn you that if lose connection during the gift transmission, you lose that gift forever)

Already got mine! It's nice that we didn't have to go anywhere to get a code this time. But I'm pretty certain it won't be the same way for Hoopa though.

How do I get it so that my Diance has Perfect IV's?

Wow, thanks.

@KingMike
It didn't do that for the DS games, not sure about 3DS. I don't think it does at least.

Never had it happen myself, but it might be because of how the system downloads the cards that tells you and the network you got the gift Pokemon. The system must download the card separately before it downloads the Pokemon, so if you disconnect you'll end up with the card but not the Pokemon or something. That's just my guess anyway.

I still had Diancie from X/Y in the pokebank

Will do!

@KingMike
I have AlphaRuby and OmegaSapphire, and only one 3DS and I was able download Diance in both games, and also, I have X & Y, and the same.

And that I know, there is not problem when fail the connection; on one occasion, I could not download a Pokemon in an attempt because the Wi-Fi signal was lost in that moment, but when it returns, I could already downloaded it; The "only" risk is when is by "code download", there, yes, you receive a message that once given the code to the Wi-Fi, if it fails to download, you can not use it again.

I have 2 in x anyway, although it would be cool to have 3.

@KingMike they already had an event in the US for Diancie in XY before ORAS came out. Now they're having an event for it in ORAS. And yes, it may be one of the three Kalos event Pokemon but ORAS's special Pokemon is Mega Diancie, which does not exist in XY.

I still think they should have doubled up on the previous gen legendaries like Darkrai, Meloetta, Keldeo, Shaymin, Jirachi, Mew, and many more seeing as they haven't been available for the last two games. Diancie was already given away fairly recently.

Had a feeling it was a good idea. It's so weird to do it for 4 days out of nowhere without like, announcing it anywhere.

Just got Diancie, and sent an email to alert my friend.

Can you get it if you already have one? from the GS event?

finally.
I missed out on the last one because Dutch toy stores only gave out codes for pre-orders of the physical copies.

I stopped playing ORAS a long time ago. This is why they should make it a thing that you can grind for in the months following release; because no one cares now. Only the very most engaged players will ever even notice this distribution.

@Robo-Knight I believe every one will have at least three perfect IVs. I soft reseted a couple dozen times to get one with the nature I wanted and IVs I was satisfied with. Not sure you can get it with perfect IVs though. Good luck if you are going to try for that.

I would have missed this, thanks for the article.

@Haru17
The fact that they're still having events alone proves you wrong, they wouldn't bother if not enough people were still playing. Game Freak would easily know how many people are based off of server access, and how many event downloads there have been in this case.

im guessing this didn't work for X&Y didn't think to try lol.

@Zombie_Barioth That's some well-good circular logic, there.

@Haru17
Maybe the way you're reading it it is.

Its no different than figuring out if there are enough players still playing to keep servers up. They know exactly how many players are battling and trading online.

@noctowl aww, let the little kid have his dreams
