Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween, everybody!

Don’t know how to spend the day? You can take advantage of the candy bonuses in the final days of the Pokémon GO Halloween event, or you can head over to the official Pokémon site to grab some jack-o lantern stencils and participate in other Halloween fun! Or perhaps watch the brand new 7 Themes Japanese trailer for Sun & Moon that was released yesterday? Although there’s no groundbreaking new info, it does show little bits of new footage!

And be sure to spend any Miles you may have left and stock up on some rare items in the Global Link before it shuts down today at 4:30pm PDT!

What are you doing for this All Hallows’ Eve? Have a Pokémon costume you want to share? Whatever your plans, we hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween night!

  4. I just saw someone speculate that Kukui is the final trial captain and specializes in dragon types. I never thought about that but it kinda fits when you look at his interaction with Guzma and the fact that in the demo he gives us a mock trial with Hakamo-o as the totem. And even in the data mine we see Kommo-o as a totem Pokémon what y’all think?

  7. My plan for the night of the 17th (before I go to the midnight release) is to watch every trailer again. The news trailers, the “legendaries” trailers, even the overview trailers. I need to just inject myself with pure hype.

    • It’s the icons for the games if I’m reading this situation correctly. It’s the same ordeal that we had with the demos, we need a 128 bit key.

      • Look on the bright side, this probably proves they left the game data in the demo on purpose.

        And someone might be able to snatch the titlekey from the cartridges if the cartridges contain such things.

          • Because if they’re smart enough to know how to (and why they should) encrypt a game with two sets of 128-bit keys they should be smart enough to assume the demo would be hacked and not leave Pokedex images lying around in a demo.

            This indicates that they probably did leave them on purpose.

            And as the pastebin says, if the game is prepurchaseable, that eliminates one of the 128-bit keys (unless I’m reading that wrong, which I could be, it seems they’ve slightly dumbed this down), meaning the other is just the titlekey, which could potentially be in the game cartridges which could be released early.

            Like I say though, that’s just running on assumptions. These game hackers don’t like revealing too much and it’s just as likely (if not moreso) that it would be highly improbable that someone could break in before release day.

            Someone did manage to get a German copy of the demo early though, so almost anything’s possible.

          • Hmm. I hope you’re right, but I don’t get how knowing how to protect a game pre-launch has anything to do with knowing how to protect its files.

          • Because they fall under similar disciplines and anyone smart enough to encrypt something like that should be able to think of ways to cut out spoiler data from a demo of a full game (with the exception of stuff that’s actually crucial to gameplay).
