Happy Holidays, Trainers! Meloetta Sings Off For #Pokemon20!
2Welcome back, Pokémon Trainers! It's time again for a weekly news update video thingy!
- Once again, I've got a Pokémon TCG booster pack to open up! This week will be Fates Collide, with the code card (as always) going out to one lucky viewer. I'll open up the booster near the end of the video, and give you viewers the Question of the Day for you to respond to. Leave your response in a comment down below using the hashtag #QOTD, and you'll be entered into the running to receive the code card (chosen randomly) when I do the drawing this coming Sunday, December 11.
- The year-long 20th Anniversary celebration for #Pokemon20 comes to a close in the month of December, with Meloetta being the final Mythical Pokémon to be distributed. From now until December 24, you can download Meloetta as a Mystery Gift via the Internet into your Gen 6 Pokémon games. You can also catch Meloetta in several animated episodes on Pokemon.com and the Pokémon TV mobile app. Also, exclusive at Toys 'R' Us stores are the 8" crushed velvet plush Meloetta and the 2" Meloetta figure which comes with a Quick Ball. Plenty of collectibles available for the final sign-off for #Pokemon20!
- Along with the collectibles above, Meloetta also arrives in its own Pokémon TCG Mythical Pokémon Collection. In this collection, you'll receive a full-art foil Meloetta promo card, a Meloetta collector's pin, two Pokémon TCG: Generations booster packs, and a code card to unlock these goodies in Pokémon TCG Online.
- If you were unable to receive the Mythical Pokémon for the month of August, the one-and-only Arceus itself, fret not! Now is your chance to scoop up this powerful Pokémon in your Gen 6 Pokémon games. Now available as a Mystery Gift via Code, you can enter the code ARCEUS20 to download your very own copy of Arceus into either Pokémon X, Pokémon Y, Pokémon Omega Ruby, or Pokémon Alpha Sapphire. The code is redeemable until December 31, so don't wait too long to snatch it up!
- With the return of the Pokémon Global Link, the first Global Mission in Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon is underway. Titled "Catch a lot of Pokémon!", the mission is comprised of just that - the goal is for Pokémon Trainers worldwide to capture 100 million Pokémon by the mission's end date of Tuesday, December 13. If the mission is a success, all participating trainers will earn 1,000 Festival Coins - on the other hand, failing to achieve the goal will still award participants with 100 FC. Regardless of whether or not you plan to participate, register your game with the PGL by Tuesday, December 6, because all registered players (even those who don't participate in the Global Mission) will earn special rewards. If the mission fails, we'll still all earn 2 Big Pearls, items that can be sold for a nice chunk of cash at a Pokémon Mart - but, if the mission succeeds, all registered players will receive a Gold Bottle Cap, which can be used to put your level 100 Pokémon through a Hyper Training regimen to boost their stats!
- There is a temporary online ban for two attacks in Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon: Memento and Parting Shot. Due to a glitch, these attacks will be unusable until a fix can be applied, so if any of the Pokémon in your team know either of these moves, you'll be unable to participate in any Free Battles, Rating Battles, or Online Competitions with those Pokémon.
