A new Nintendo Network wi-fi download event has started worldwide and this is your chance to (re-)capture the Legendary Pokémon Zygarde! It can be downloaded on any Generation VI game (Pokémon X/Y/OR/AS), but does not know any special moves. For some countries the OT (original trainer) displays as XYZ, a cute homage to the current anime season. It’s level 100, so make sure you don’t miss your chance to grab this beast if you haven’t already caught it.
This is the “50% Forme” (as it is known now), so hang on to it for Pokémon Sun & Moon’s release so you might be able to power it up to its “Complete Forme”!
UPD: The European distribution of Zygarde’s 50% Forme has been announced to end on May 26th. For North America, however, the event will cease on May 8th, giving way for two more distributions in May: From May 11th to May 17th, you can finally download the shiny Xerneas via Nintendo Network, and from May 20th to May 26th you’ll be able to download a shiny Yveltal!
And remember that throughout the month of May you can pickup a serial code from your local game stores to download Darkrai as part of the #Pokemon20 celebration! Full list of where and when you can pick up a code below:

My PS4 gets here in almost 1 week! I already have a few games to play in addition to Uncharted 4 so I will be entertained for a while. Don’t even bother mentioning the PS4K, because I’m just fine pretending that it won’t exist 🙂
It’s marginal difference that you’ll be fine with the regular PS4. It’s already a good system and there’s no shame in having a regular one lol
I would not have another opportunity to get an expensive console for a long time, so I’m very thankful for what I have coming. I also want to leap on the PSVR later this year, and the NX is also releasing in March, so it’s all just a bunch of crazy tech stuff at once 😛
Yay 🙂 I’m happy for you. By that time we might have news though, fingers crossed.
Exactly, next week is just going to be great. Let’s see what “huge scoop” means this time around. We can be sure that at least one new Pokemon will be involved, but WHICH? Starters, legendaries, or both? My anticipation is growing…
Let’s learn from last month shall we? :p I’m sure we’ll see the boxarts, and most likely the legendaries, but I’m going to assume that’s it.
But what I meant was we could get news earlier. Firstly, Corocoro said that we would get an announcement in May, NOT May’s issue. Plus, as Serebii has said several times, it wouldn’t make sense for the first images of the games to come from magazine leaks.
Having said that, there’s no evidence that pokenchi this Sunday will reveal anything, so don’t count on that. If we do get anything before Corocoro, it’ll either be via direct or random site update.
I was about to talk about the PS4K. lol. I’m glad your getting your PS4! It’s an amazing system. I recently finished playing Ratchet & Clank and I absolutely loved the game.
