Special ‘Fancy Pattern’ Vivillon Download Coming + PGL Events

It has been revealed that once the Global Trade Station, or GTS, reaches 100 million trades a Vivillon with a special wing pattern will be distributed!

There are also a variety of new events coming to the PGL, via the official site:

June 6-8: Think Fast Competition: Single Battle
This newly announced Single Battle competition will be the shortest and the fastest yet. For those who have a tough time setting aside time for battling, this competition is perfect for you. Use this chance to quickly and easily experience battling other Pokémon players from around the world.

Late June: International Challenge June
In the international arena, we will continue to run preliminaries for the Pokémon World Championships to help determine who will get to represent their country at Worlds! Master Trainers of the world, take part!

July: Eevee Friendly Match (tentative title)
This Rotation Battle competition will be limited to Eevee and its evolutions only!

July: All Star ☆ Battle (tentative title)
This all-star Double Battle competition will allow you to use any Pokémon you wish, including Legendary and Mythical Pokémon! Plus, for this competition only, you will also be able to use Pokémon that you have brought from past games in the series using the Poké Transporter!
Note: You will only be able to include a maximum of two of certain Legendary Pokémon and Mythical Pokémon in your Battle Box.
Note: Diancie will not be eligible for entry in this competition.

August: Think Fast Competition: Double Battle
In this competition, you will not get to see your opponent’s team before the battle begins. And with only one backup Pokémon allowed on your team, each contestant will be limited to three Pokémon total! This will be the fastest and shortest Double Battles from the time you send out your Pokémon until the battle is over.

Autumn: Fairy Type Cup (tentative title)
Look forward to a competition where entry will be limited to Fairy-type Pokémon. The battle format is to be determined.

Autumn: Halloween Party (tentative title)
In a special competition for the Halloween season, we will have a special Single Battle competition for Ghost-type Pokémon only. And that’s not all—every contestant must include Gourgeist in their Battle Box, as well!

PS- Yes, sorry I wrote GTS instead of PGL. Fixed now 😉

  1. I reckon the pokeball vivillon will be when a certain amount of battles have been made on the battle spot considering it has a pokeball as it’s pattern and it will probably be one that is correctly natured and such for competitive players

    • Idk. I think 4 should show a bunch of main characters getting nvited to smash and shows a fighting scene then all characters that you have together.

      • The new season began this April. The new season so far has a mixed reception for me, useless comedy, too much comedy, and less mature battles, etc. I recommend you watch it but don’t expect to get blown away.

        • Stopped watching a long time ago. Only read the manga now. But even it is sometimes full of unnecessary interactions and just extra useless scenes

  3. I got the Animal Crossing posters :3 I’m trying to give representation to all major Nintendo franchises (for me personally) in my room, and this covers Animal Crossing. I hope I’ll be able to reach Platinum status next year…oh, who am I kidding: Mario Kart 8, Wii Party U, maybe Tomodachi Life, Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Smash Bros. Wii U and 3DS, Hyrule Warriors, and other E3 surprises. Nothing to worry about XD

  4. My garrulous hobnobs about Pokemon with friends was what drove me into the world of Pokemon. Initially, I’ve never even known about such a thing until one of my best friends talked to me about it and played it in front of me. He was playing Heartgold, the newest game to have come out at the time. Odd enough, when I went to the store, I didn’t pick Heartgold or Soulsilver… I picked Platinum. Somehow, the game drew me in more than HG and SS. My love for Sinnoh began that fateful day when I picked the “older game” instead of the “newer game.”

    PS: I later bought DPP and HGSS, lol.

    • My first Sinnoh game was Diamond, but it showed me more than what Hoenn did, it wsas entirely new, and my brother hadn’t played it first since he quit. I love Sinnoh because of it, and it’s why it’s my favorite region. And generation as a whole.

  5. Predictions for ORAS:
    – Will become the fastest selling 3DS games to date
    – Will become the best selling Pokemon games to date
    – Uneducated people will hate… a lot
    – People will love it
    – The story will be amazing
    – Critics will pan it for being over the top and it will receive a 39/40, like X and Y
    – It will pass the 15 million copies mark in it’s first year of release
    – It sell more than 35 million copies worldwide
    – It will be AMAZING

  6. X and Y feats:
    1. Fastest selling games in 3DS history, so far
    2. Best selling games in 3DS history, so far
    3. Pokemon game with the best critical reception
    4. Most pre-ordered game in the first week

  7. since ORAS will probably again have a lot of surfing, it would be neat if you could actually see the pokemon your riding, like lapras from x and y, but for all.

  8. I just realized… In 2013, after the release of Pokemon X and Y, Wikipedia stated that Ruby and Sapphire remakes were to be released sometime soon and Satoshi was to direct the game…

      • I also remember I made some Generation 3 posts to continue our Generation weeks from last year. I totally knew the announcements were coming. Right?
