BW/BW2 No Shiny Rayquaza Wi-Fi Event for U.S. and Europe?

Not to be mean, but who wants to get them cloned?
Click to expand...
People who couldn't get the events the first time around...like, say, for example, most of the 4th Gen events in regards to people in Europe. They didn't get about 90% of the events the US got, so I keep stockpiles of clones around to give to people who missed out on them.

And, cloning is NOT legit. Can't even be used in official tournaments.

Wrong. You can use cloned Pokemon in official tourneys, provided the Pokemon is legitimately possible to begin with.

Ah yes, the Year of the Dragon event. It'd be nice to get that one as well, but since the Chinese Zodiac isn't as significant in the west, I kind of doubt we'll get it.

Dude you must be mistaken because the clone is legit unless you clone a hack. The Pokemon you clone is the exact copy as the original. Those that don't know this don't know much about cloning. My advice to you is to look it up and try it for your self XD. Cloning is how most people trade for events. If no one cloned no one would have that many events XD.:)

Oh really? Because I didn't recall a cloning center in the game. If it's LEGIT, then it would be available in normal gameplay. Cloning is cheating. You use cheat codes to do that, WHICH IS NOT LEGIT. The ONLY way to get mutiple event Pokemon is to have two game cards: using one as the storage game, and the other you restart over and over until you get the Pokedex, then receive the event Pokemon, then trade it to the storage game. Repeat. Other than that cloning is NOT legit. And I don't want an Japanese event, I want the USA event. So, it doesn't make it over here, then it wasn't meant for us to have. But I'm kinda surprised Shiny Rayquaza did not get a distribution for Dragon Month.
 
Dragon Month should've been like Zoroark Month.

It explains why we didn't get the eggs. And Korea also got Goon's Scizor, Shiny Hydregion, and Shiny Golurk. It's got something to do with the different way events are distributed in Japan and Korea then in the US.

What we're referring to is how hack detectors pick up cloning - they don't. The Pokemon is perfectly identical to the original, and if the original is legit, then as far as the hack detector is concerned, so is the clone.

And I don't want an Japanese event, I want the USA event. So, it doesn't make it over here, then it wasn't meant for us to have. But I'm kinda surprised Shiny Rayquaza did not get a distribution for Dragon Month.

And what will you do if we don't get the USA event? Sucks to be you?
I'm going to poke around and see if I can get a Japanese copy. If I can then I can; if not then whatever.

If you think cloning is no legit why do most forums allow it? The only one that I know that does not allow cloning is Serebii forums. Sure they do cloning there but they do it through PM only man. No harsh feelings but there are more than just one or two ways to get the same Pokemon. WITHOUT cloning. You go to the event yourself or you go with a friend and he gives it to you restarts his a you described for the most part and gives it to me. No need to be picky on how we obtain our events man. If we want the event WE GET IT CLONED just like the rest of the universe. If you don't want it cool man. No need to punnel me because this is how most of us trade nowadays XD.:)

EDIT: Anyway. I hope we get this event as well. If we do not cool. At least for the most of us we have the Japanese one. That is better than no event at all XD.:)
 
Guys, guys, guys...

This isn't a topic to discuss the ethical issues of cloning; it has to do with what events we are or aren't getting. I don't think we need to milk the subject of cloning any more than we have already.

Yeah sure, cloning is how we can get events we don't have, but...this isn't really the place on picking cloning apart. Let's move on.
 
Thanks DNA for clearing that up. Anyway I was just saying that those that don't have this event and want the event I will be happy to get it cloned for you and trade it. That is all I am saying guys.:)

Elaborate, please.

For instance, I guess events such as Goon's Scizor that we didn't get here in the US, are more of a big deal in Japan and Korea than in English countries.

I fail to see why, everyone saw the movie in which Goon's Scizor appeared, so how would it be "more of a big deal". I was curious about what you meant by the "different way events are distributed".

I have no idea. It seems they weren't as a big deal as Ash's Pikachu was.

And what is considered a "big deal"? Because I'm not seeing how Ash's Pikachu qualifies.

The only I can think why Ash's Pikachu was the only trainer-themed Pokemon distributed in the US is because Ash and Pikachu are very popular. TPCi probably didn't see Goon's Scizor or Shiny Hydriegon or Golurk as being very popular here in the US.

Why would anyone not jump on the opportunity for free shinies?
 
You have to think about the common player. Aside from those who have had GS or HGSS (and even those might think that Gyarados is just a cool legendary or something) and those who actually keep up with Pokemon on the Internet, they have no idea what a shiny is. Just seeing that some Scizor is going to be an event isn't nearly as grabbing as OH MY GOSH IT'S ASH'S PIKACHU. So that's why you won't get a retail distribution, as it's not worth the money, but yeah, it doesn't reallly give a good reason for not doing it over Wi-Fi. I'd imagine they could get it done over Wi-Fi for less than $3000, far less than that if the equipment for previous events is adaptable. Huh.
 
I also thought of something else. Goon was an evil character in the Zoroark movie. TPCi maybe thought that it wouldn't be a good example to distribute a Pokemon that's based off an ememy's Pokemon.

Does it really matter? As far as they know, it's a cool, different looking Pokemon that they can't get anywhere else. That's reason enough for them to go out and get one.

Doesn't explain the Hydreigon/Golurk event. And what about the shiny Rayquaza for Conquest, what role does it play in the game anyway?
