Gen V Event Collection and Contribution Thread

[Guested]

Thank you!
Hopefully this settles this mystery.
I'll update the collection in the morning.

It turns out the confusion was that Pokesav does not correctly display the French accented characters. All French submissions have actually had ÉTÉ2011 as the OT, so they are correct. I will add the new pgfs in the next update.

The next clarification that needs to be made is the German/Swiss events. We have a contribution with an OT of SO2011, but I've seen other sources that say SMR2011. There could be multiples (maybe Swiss is different from German or the old Greek one), but it would be really helpful if a user in Germany could actually go get them and check them out for us. They are all still happening.

Thanks to the last two pgf submissions by lachesis, we have sorted out the French event Pokemon and can now add Karrablast and Shelmet to our collection!

Hi guys,
Thought i start with a nice forst post:
After my hard day of work i finally visited softridge in swiss and i brought you something=)
Great site btw, and have fun with it!

Guested edit: Thanks! Checking...

This is now a second Swiss contribution of these events which has the OT of SO2011. This seems to further back up that the German language versions of these three events are NOT SMR2011, but actually SO2011.

It is possible that the events IN Germany have a different OT (SMR2011), but we have yet to see any contributions from Germany. Until we do, the only German language ones we have are the ones from Switzerland with an OT of SO2011.

Thanks for helping us sort this out, iHans.

For those of you interested in going after the ones IN Germany, you can still get Karrablast and Shelmet at Toys R Us

Here's the Worlds 2011 Scrafty. I'm surprised nobody else showed up at Worlds with a flashcart to download it, considering San Diego is more accessible than Hawaii is.

Thanks for coming through again this year, OmegaDonut! Everyone appreciates your contribution, I'm sure.

I'll add this to the collection now.

• Worlds 2011 Scrafty

Update: It has come up that unlike previous World Championships, the Scrafty gift was distributed to every language WITH a unique WC title in each language. So far we only have the English card, however every version of the wonder card has the Pokemon set to English so even if the language of the WC is different, the Scrafty will always be an English "Scrafty."

Poorly hacked or poorly extracted... these pgfs were corrupted.

• Spanish Snarl Zoroark, Karrablast, and Shelmet

The Spanish Snarl Zoroark, Karrablast, and Shelmet aren't real because the text isn't in spanish. It is translated by Google, because the text would be ¡Un Zoroark especial!, ¡Es un Karrablast!, ¡Es un Shelmet! with double exclamtion and the text of Zoroark isn't full translated (A Zoroark especial!).
Why I know it? Because I'm spanish and the text isn't in spanish, is it modified by the person who contributed it.
Please remove the false pgf.

[Guested]

I was aware of all of these things, but the user who contributed them said he attended the event in Greece so I took his word for it. If it was translated by google, it doesn't make sense that two of them would come out with "es un" and the other would still be "a." In this case, I assumed it was possible that the event organizers did not enter it in correctly, as the event was in Greece and not Spain.
I've been keeping these ones under consideration, but until there is some other kind of evidence (photos, videos, a new pgf) or a distribution of these Pokemon IN Spain, there isn't really any way to surely disprove them.

I'm not being defensive here, I'm trying to be objective and listen to all of the possibilities.
The missing exclamation point is a valid point, as (in addition to being proper grammar) previous Spanish events have had both.
Perhaps you could contact Nintendo of Europe or Pokemon to ask the Spanish division whether this is the real deal or not? We don't have a lot of users in Spain, as far as I know...

I think (really, I know) the distribution rom has the all nacionalities with the right text, so I think if it won't distributed in Spain it would be completely in english (like the victiny rom which has the JAP and KOR distributions in english).
So the pkm. file can be real, so it's probably will distribute with that same ID and EO but the text is surely wrong.
I try to translate the english text with google for prove to you that the translation is from the google translator:
A special Zoroark! = A Zoroark especial! The same wrong translation on the wondercard
It's a Karrablast! = Es un Karrablast! The same wrong translation on the wondercard
It's a Shelmet! = Es un Shelmet! The same wrong translation on the wondercard
You can try it, you will see I am right.
I don't think Nintendo would be distributing an event with a wrong text, if they won't distribute it in Spain, the rom would have the text in english, not in spanglish.
I think it's probably a fake contribution, not a nintendo error. I don't think nintendo distribute a wondercard translated by Google
