Most events are distributed wirelessly in Europe and via code in North America but Shiny Rayquaza was distributed via the Nintendo Network in North America and via serial code in Germany. I can't help but chuckle.

The Shiny Pokemon was a Hidden one with an exclamation mark. First one I encountered in the wild on this playthrough.

Oh, you mean via the DexNav.
Did you keep track of how many times you'd seen a Kecleon via the DexNav before? That's a key factor in finding DexNav shinies. If you hadn't encountered very many Kecleons before, then you're really lucky, shinies usually don't have much of an increased chance until you've seen like 200 of them.

The Random Number God is subservient to the God of All.

I've hatched well over 500 eggs, but still no shiny Trapinch. I've also tried to DexNav chain in the wild for them, but I can't get decently long chains because they move under the sand... and the higher-leveled ones move faster. Most frustrating mechanic by far.

Have you tried the friend safari? IF you're not going for perfect IV's, a shiny has a 1/512 chance of appearing there, and trapinch can appear in ground type safari's.

I'm pretty sure Friend Safari only exists in X and Y. I'm playing Omega Ruby.

A live press conference regarding The Pokemon Company's "new business strategy" is starting in two and a half hours. It will involve new company partnerships.

GODDAMMIT KAMAK I WAS RIGHT ABOUT TO POST IT

Fuck you I'm doing it anyway

Woop woop just announced:
Pokemon Go for iOS and Android

Remember that April Fool's game with Google Maps?
This is kind of similar, except it's augmented reality involving actually going outside, and you can battle and trade Pokemon too.

It will be released along with Pokemon Go Plus, an accessory you wear like a wristwatch that notifies you of events in the game via a Bluetooth commection. So like an Apple Watch but not shit.

Apparently it's going to link to the main series games somehow.

Trailer:

Pokemon go looks really cool, really hope it doesn't just stick to gen 1 though.
I wouldnt be too out of luck if that happens because my favorite pokemon (arcanine) is gen 1 but it would still be awesome to have all of them.

So far I think they confirmed Gen 1 only. Might be like shuffle where they gradually add more mons after launch.
