ATTENTION ALL POKEMON FANS!!! Gamestop is having the Pokemon Black and White Event now until February 6th. Come into the shop with your DS and your copy of Pokemon Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold or SoulSilver and receive a one of the 3 Shiny Legendaries; Raikou, Entei and Suicune. If you get all 3, youll have one chance to catch Zoroark, the new dark Pokemon. Stop by Gamestop or EB games today before its too late! =3
(Disclaimer: I work at Gamestop and I want all you pokemon fans to know about this event. They did not pay me to say this, I did this for my own will)

Awesome, I saw this down in the states and wasn't sure if they were going to do it up here or not. I'll have to drop in.
So how does this work exactly. We have to keep going to GameStop every day to get a new shiney, then we get the Zoroark?
The three shinys will be available different weeks until Feb 6. You must come to game stop each time the next shiny is up for grabs. If you get all 3 by the end and purchase Black or White when it comes out, you transfer those 3 legendaries to the game and then youll get a chance to catch Zoroark.
That sounds pretty sweet.
Isnt EB doing the same thing or something? o:

I already said that XD Read more plz.
Damnit, was actually getting back into pokemon but the closest EBgames/gamestop is about 8 hours away from me.
DAMNIT
I gave my DS to my little brother for christmas, T_T
actually from what I hear you only need one of them.
Which I hope is F*cking true since I missed the Raikou event.
I got the Entei and will get Suicune, now I can't wait for the B&W release in March~
b/w would be more entertaining if the grass starter didnt have almost 400 speed, making it just a little bit OP as the fastest pokemon in the game
oh, and that ice/dragon type one sure seems balanced to me.

I learned of the magics of "ev training" over the summer. pokemon's speed depends on a bunch of things. although it's base speed is probably pretty high, but c'mon, it's a snake-ish pokemon. what were you expecting?
So which version do you folks think will be the one to get when they come out? Black or White? And why? I haven't done much reading about it yet, and I'm definitely not a power player, so just curious.
black comes with the white-colored legendary, and vice versa.
the white-colored legendary looks cooler and is a bit better type-wise so i think people might choose it over the others.
but TBH other than those two legendaries, everythings pretty much the same.
the only thing im looking forward to is the new ghost and steel types
Their both equal type wise. Why would Nintendo only make one better than the other? They wanna sell both versions.
they're not.
the one from black has both ground, dragon, psychic and fire moves available, and has TONS more sp attack and defense, making its moves alot stronger, where the other only has dragon psychic and thunder type moves, and slightly higher HP.
nintendo doesn't care if one's better than the other, they want them to seem different and make people want both to buy their games.
they don't really care about the fans much anymore, and thats why their sales are really low in NA/EU branches :C
Exactly, so they wouldnt make one pokemon more better than the other. Both are equal in one way or another. Nintendo rather have people by both instead of just one.
because most kids can't tell the difference, and the people that know well enough don't matter to them because there's alot less of those people.
So kids would wanna have both, just because they both look so cool to them. Plus if your playing pokemon and planning to get one of the two if not both, you must be knowledgeable about the series.

or just a really big nerd, :b
I'll probably buy one of them when they come out, but it'll be the one with the pokemon I think looks cooler, so. Meh.
I preordered Black today while I was in getting my shiny Suicune. Now I'll have to figure out how to transfer all my shiny critters over when the time comes. =)
Gonna pre order black and white. My friend Bryan informed me about the event way before about EB.
Got all the shiny legendaries. c: On Silver, diamond and platinum. I'm just that cool. -nerd-
are Eb and gamestop like rivals? Or are they the same company?
Anyone want to exchange codes so we can battle/trade sometime?
Always fun to have a good fight. Pow Pow!
