Distributions for Pokemon ORAS and Shuffle

Good afternoon everyone and welcome to The Magical Mystery Blog.

Remember when Dragonite was considered the original over powered Pokemon? Lance of the Elite Four had an army of Dragonites, each one unmercifully annihilating our party without hesitation. Regardless of how many ice attacks we used against the fearsome beast, it always tore us apart.  Of course we could always try to obtain our own Dragonite by means of capturing a Dratini in the Safari Zone which was about as easy as trying to find Waldo.

But by some divine force, Gamestop will be distributing Dragonite to Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire from June 22^nd, 2015 to July 12, 2015. This Dragonite is a special Dragonite that knows Extremespeed, a powerful move that’s rare to achieve when raising a Dragonite. The Pokemon also knows the Hidden Ability Multiscale and holds a Lum Berry.

Also being distributed this week is a code for five Exp. Points for Pokemon Shuffle. The code is secularly available and expires on June 1^st, 2015. The code is 04482045.

Thank you for reading today’s entry. If you enjoyed it, feel free to comment, share, and critique.

So tell me, what Pokemon would you like to see distributed? 

HOLY POKEMON, BATMAN!

Good evening and welcome to The Magical Mystery Blog.

This past week has been filled with tons of sneak peeks for the reboot of Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire. With every piece of news, my heart explodes with elation for this game, but what made me burst into a million fragments of joy was the return of the secret bases.

In the original Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire, Pokemon could be taught the move ‘Secret Power’. This ability would be able to detect secret rooms hidden within trees, rocks, bushes, and other places.  Once the player enters the secret room, you can customize it with plushies, pillows, tents, flags, rugs, and many accessories. However, since this game is a reboot, they’ve added a few adjustments to the bases. For example, you can turn your base into a gym with you as the gym leader. You can also play capture the flag with other base holders and share your base with the Street Pass. Your friends can also enter your base and battle with you. A new character entitled The Secret Base Master named Aarune will be tied in with the Secret Power and bases.

Another concept for the rebooted games is that you can now dress up your Pokemon. Coro Coro scans have revealed many styles that could be used in the game. Some of these styles are hard rock, madame (regal), doctor, masked, and idol, but I’m sure there will be more to come. With these new fashions, two things come to my mind: One, the return of the Pokemon contests from the original Ruby and Sapphire and two, Princess Gyarados. Because if there can be a princess version for the most brooding, famous DC hero of all time, why not have a princess version for Gyarados too? You can dress your Pokemon up in Pokemon Amie.

It has also been revealed that the Pokedex will look like a Gameboy Advance, which makes senses because that’s what the original games were released for. We’ve also seen the return of Brawly, Flannery, and other gym leaders from the original game. They too have received a slight makeover.

Lastly, we have been given a glimpse of one more Mega Evolution which is Mega Metagross. Metagross will achieve its Mega Evolution by using a Mega Brooch and will be used by someone in the Elite Four. There are rumors that many more Pokemon will receive a Mega Evolution. Personally, I hope Pokemon like Zangoose, Farfetch’d, Relicanth, and Dunsparce receive a Mega Evolution because they only have one stage. I’d like to see what the game development does with them and possibly expand them into incredible forces of power.

What would you like to see in the Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire remakes?

I Choose You! Pokemon Alpha and Omega!

Good evening everyone and welcome to The Magical Mystery Blog.

With Pokemon Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby releasing in November, we have received an explosion of news.

First off, Swampert, Sceptile, and Diancie will be receiving Mega Evolutions by means of their Mega Evolution stones and the new Mega Evolution bangle. Swampert will gain the ability Swift Swim and Sceptile will be the first ever Grass/Dragon Pokemon with the Lightening Rod ability. Diancie’s Mega Evolution will turn the floating gem Pokemon into a regal jewel.

Secondly, the heroes of the story, Brendan and May have received a new look. Their outfits seem to be made out of a swimsuit like quality, which may hint at the revival of Dive. However, as attractive as their new outfits are, I hope we can change them throughout the game like we do in Pokemon X and Y.

Lastly, there’s Groudon and Kyogre’s new looks. Everyone has seen them by now, the glowing symbols, the appearance of dominance over their respective elements, and their potential power. The legends’ new forms are a part of something called Ancient Devolution and are referred to as their primal forms. To help us figure out the mystery behind their new stages, Stephen Stone will be featured in the games. According to the main Coro Coro leak, it seems he has a Mega Charizard on his team, which means you’ll probably fight him.

So what are you excited for in Pokemon Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby?
