theSLAYER Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 Based on an image that is now circulating across the Internet, it appears there will be a distribution for Dialga and Palkia! It is likely a tie-in to the TCG expansion Ultra Prism, which features the new formes of Necrozma, as well as heavily featuring elements from Sinnoh. Furthermore, the dates of the supposed event and the TCG release coincides. What are you thoughts? Discuss! 1
theSLAYER Posted January 17, 2018 Author Posted January 17, 2018 New image showing version exclusivity:
Ruby Genseki Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 If it is real, neat, Dialga and Palkia need some love, they've barely been given in events (what do we have? the shiny ones from gen V and the ones from the 18th movie?). But at least to me, them being Lv. 100 is kinda underwhelming. Guess it's to save the IVs SR'ing (hence the gold cap), but still, anything obtained at a level higher than 70 is unable to get the Footprint Ribbon and that bothers me for some reason ._. besides, I like low level legendaries better, I find it funny to have some time-controlling deity at level 5 (and that's why I'm really fond of the Sinjoh Ruins and Dream Radar ones) 1
Invader TAK Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 I figured the code would be for the one not obtainable in your version. Reminds me of the Wi-Fi Reshiram/Zekrom event back in Gen 5.

Was expecting the same thing, and from what theSLAYER posted above, seems to be the case, just as they did it with the recent shiny Groudon and Kyogre event. 2
Invader TAK Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) Spoiler It's confirmed now! Along with other events. Edited January 18, 2018 by Invader TAK 4
Ruby Genseki Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 So we're finally getting Shinygarde now. Not that I like it that much but I like to collect these things. When are we gonna get more mythicals tho? There are several shiny ones missing. 1

jojo12100 Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Speaking about Unreleased Pokemon: -Shiny Volcanion appeared in TCG -Magearna original form appeared in the movie during a flashback These 2 cases are more problematic than AZ Floette because they are canon in fact and both quite unique in Pokemon History (well except Ash's Greninja and Pokemon from Gen 2 in Gen1 anime ...). But so happy to finally got in hand a shiny Zygarde!!! 1 1
Holla! Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 Let's be honest, the only thing everyone cares about in that schedule is the Shiny Zygarde. Now I just hope this could imply that a G8 announcement will happen soon enough... 1

Well, at least for me, that's true. Everything else is catchable within the games, not to mention the VC Johto legends with HA (while the event ones will surely have Pressure). 45 minutes ago, Holla! said: Now I just hope this could imply that a G8 announcement will happen soon enough... And I was thinking this could mean we're not getting G8 announcement this year. To me, this seems like a bunch of filler events to make G7 last longer.

They are trying to go out with a bang, giving people no reason to not get USUM, especially concerns of hacked/unavailable legendaries. Almost everything is essentially available now between SM/USUM/GSC. 1
Deoxyz Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 I don't know how obvious this was, but I just realized that there are differences between the Palkia/Dialga you receive in Sun/Moon and UltraSun/UltraMoon. Different levels and moveset. SM gets them at Lv60 and USUM gets them at Lv100(+Gold Bottle Cap). 1

Just remember, the 20th anniversary events ran the same year as SM's release XD 4 hours ago, Sabresite said: It was kind of obvious this was coming considering the lack of shiny locks and ultra wormholes.

Almost everything is essentially available now between SM/USUM/GSC. Certainly does. It seems like they must make a bulk of legendaries available in-game at the end of every generation. 2 hours ago, Deoxyz said: I don't know how obvious this was, but I just realized that there are differences between the Palkia/Dialga you receive in Sun/Moon and UltraSun/UltraMoon.

I wonder if this is the case for the other events too. ----- IN any case, given that there's potentially 2 wonder card per Pokemon for this entire event, my google sheet is gonna get real crowded real soon...Pokemon 2018: The nightmare begins. 1

G6 was 3 years old so it was not a big surprise for it to end that year. G7, on the other hand, will become just 2 years old this year. No generation has lasted less than 3 years as of this date, so...that's why I'm so doubtful about this. 1

Genesect's movie was released the same year as X&Y, Volcanion's movie was released the same year as SM. If Zeraora is part of this year's movie, then releasing a new generation at the end of this year, would fit into that pattern. And for every theorem, there is an anti-theorem. For M22, they could pull a M13 and have no new mythical in it. While it had the existing Mythical Celebi, possibility due to HGSS influence, that movie did not give us any new mythicals. There was a meaningful distribution, but no new mythicals. That will effectively set the release of the next generation at the end of 2019. 1
Sabresite Posted January 24, 2018 Posted January 24, 2018 Looks like the wondercards were breifly uploaded for UM. WCID is 638, OTN is 2018 Legends. Wondercards are on the GitHub gallery. 2
