(1) Genesect Wi-Fi Event Starting October 7th [9/7]

When I say "parallel", the main thing that comes to my mind is not in terms of being a sequel but more about the Pokémon. Since Gen V has a lot of pokémon similar to Gen 1's, and Gen II introduced evolutions for some of those, I thought Gen VI would introduce new evolutions for Gen V pokémon.

Here's my theory on why they are being released so early. TPC/TPCi is either planning one of two things:

  • Generation 6 is coming soon (you have to remember that they still haven't released a main game for the 3DS yet)
  • Ruby/Sapphire remakes are coming soon (to keep Gen V lasting longer)

In terms of Meloetta, we should be getting her soon (I hope)...her cards are going to be in Boundaries Crossed so we need to have an official reveal before Novermber.

This, Best Wishes 2, and Pokedex 3D Pro

We've had cards taken out of sets before and put into later ones to fit in with the movie coming out. In fact, some sets were flat-out moved around; EX Deoxys was delayed for the release of the 7th movie, Destiny Deoxys. No guarantees that Meloetta is in Boundaries Crossed.

Why would they delay Meloetta to February? It's going to be in the dub anime next month, it's movie 15 short should be premiering with the Kyurem and Keldeo movie, which is without a doubt premiering this year, and in Pokedex 3D Pro, which releases in two months.

But the real question here is why Genesect was revealed before Meloetta.
I'm thinking it's TPCi's scheme to get more people to watch the anime--"Tune in to Pokemon BW: Rival Destinies this weekend to catch a glimpse of a brand-new Pokemon!" or something like that.

Genesect hasn't been officially revealed in the US yet. This is just a leaked ad. Going from what TPCi did with Keldeo, Genesect will get an official reveal soon, which TPCi has a few weeks to do before B2W2 are released. In which anytime over the course of the next three weeks, they could easily still reveal Meloetta before Genesect.
 
So, TPCi's got three weeks to reveal both Meloetta and Genesect. Two Mythical Pokemon. Let's see how this goes.
 
This was basically officially announced with that ad, but now it'd been officially officially announced: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFzogePCKf0&feature=em-uploademail
 
Genesect's release date for the UK is revealed now as well.

October 12. same end date
 
Well, Genesect is officially revealed in the US now. I still think Meloetta has a good chance of being distributed in-store for Black, White, Black 2, and White 2 starting on B2W2's launch day as well.
