Ohhh that's what you mean. Didn't know that they distributed Hoopa that way in the US. Pretty neat trick you used there then :)

yup it was a mcdonalds distribution which I learned about while eating a happy meal and getting pokemon toys :p
Haha, sweet^^ I'm glad I don't have to go to McDonalds to get event Pokemon as I'd have to use the trick you described above. Getting to a McDonalds is even more difficult than getting to a GameStop

Actually there was one time you could use that trick to get a British charmander in Germany via changing your Wi-Fi name to that of the Nintendo network. I can look that up for you as soon as I get home.
Sorry for my bad english~.. ! I'm from germany! :)

Another neat trick I've never heard of before^^
Also were you looking for the Darkrai to own one or just for Dex purpose?

our mcdonalds is closer than gamestop is. there are a few different mcdonalds closer than gamestop xD
I always feel so out of the loop with event Pokemon, and I've missed a ton of them. Thankfully I'm managing to stay somewhat more on top of them now.
I really wish I had known about that Hoopa McDonald's event, haha! I have one like a five minute walk from my house.
I only found out about it because of the happy meal I ordered. You know about the shiny xerneas and yveltal coming up this month?
Makes sense they'd distribute event Pokemon through them too then.
Speaking of event Pokemon, I notice that I'm still missing the Fancy patterned Vivillon for my collection. So, if any of you has a spare one or one they want to trade please let me know.

actually i've already got two, but one of them is definitely hacked and the other one must be modified.
I just wanted a legal one in my collection (although i dont mind hacked or illegal pokes like some other do, what i certainly understand!)
& sorry for the somewhat late reply
here's a brief explanation which i found
SPOILER (click to toggle)
Create a hotspot with your smartphone and name it "NintendoSpotPass5" (iPhone: rename your phone to that SSID).
Your encryption should be WPA-2.
Enter the Wi-Fi data into your 3DS.
Start your European Pokemon X/Y.
Go to Mystery Gift.
Download your special Charizard over the Internet.
Have fun.
EDIT: Some of you in the comments noticed that it also works with Australian and New Zealand copies of the game. You can use a PC/Mac as a HotSpot, too, if you don't have a smartphone. Of course you have to use the same SSID and encryption.
EDIT 2: I will explain why this works, because there are some people out there, who may think that this Charizard is not "legit". With the change of the SSID you tell the games that they have to search on another Nintendo server for an event download when selecting "Get via Internet". The Wonder Card and the Pokémon itself is unique and exactly the same like the one you would get when going to a GAME UK store. Technically there is NO difference because you will receive the Wonder Card directly from an official Nintendo server. That's all I wanted to point out.

That's at least something^^ For collecting purposes I don't mind non legit Pokes that much, I just prefer legal ones^^
What sort of Charizard was that?

Hi, sorry if this is abrupt or weird but does anyone have those Hidden Ability legendary birds from the newsletter to trade? I don't mind clones of them!
I've got a bunch of old legendary pokemon, some newer events in case you missed them, and shinies from when I used to trade a lot. Acquired new ones since I used to run a giveaway thread on the forums here to help people with their pokedex.
I just really want those birbs! I realized I wasn't getting the newsletter even though I've had an trainer club account for years and never turned off my email prefs. The newsletter email isn't in my junk folder or anything either so I never got the codes for them. :( If you have some you're willing to part with or can get them for me from someone who is please let me know.
(Also if you're unable to get the wifi events that're coming out in North America soon and need a copy of upcoming pokemon let me know and we can work something out. Might start up some kind of board again even though I'm in college now and working retail so I don't have as much time as I used to. I don't know if anyone even remembers me lol.)
Anyone interested?
I also missed out, turns out they turned them off or changed how they was made at some point. So don't feel to bad!
@blackwolf_2009 Ah that makes sense! I haven't figured out how to turn it back on again so hopefully going in to look at it worked and I don't miss out if they decide to release events that way again. Why do they have to be so difficult all the time? I'm glad the shiny Xerneas and Yveltal will be over wifi.
Shiny Xerneas is available right now - don't forget to grab one for each of your Pokemon X, Y, Omega Ruby, or Alpha Sapphire versions if you own more than one :)
I have no idea. Irritates the crap out of me. You have to search around in your settings to find the option for the newsletter.
11th - 17th Shiny Xerneas 20th - 26th Shiny Yveltal
Both are over Mystery Gift! So pick'em up as soon as you can! Can be obtained on XYORAS.
Kushiel I think it was not special apart from carrying an megastone (like, if you play Y it had an X-megastone) and are you still looking for the hoopa?

Oh that one, that's the one I luckily got anyway. As for Hoopa I might be able to get one, providing I hatch the right Fennekin for epic^^

So, I pretty much have all 720 Pokemon and enough patience to wait for a Volcanion Download in Germany, but there is still some Pokemon I would like to have if anyone can provide them:
Vivillon: Sandstorm Ocean Jungle
Unown: Too many
As I have a living dex (ready for transfer to Sun), I can breed pretty much anything you want in return, so long as my Ditto can make it.
