Rare Candies are fucking cheap, you can buy a bunch on PGL with the trillion pok?miles you probably have. 1000 BPs or GTFO.

btw by now I have ~730 BPs awaiting on bank, I'll be really happy if I can import then into OR/AS

potions are even cheaper and are virtuallu worthless though unless you are doing some kind of no-shop run where 200 potions might be relevant

and for the record i stopped playing x on my 3ds since minthd ago because #reallifeproblems

I got my own code online from a taco store. Dunno about today, but yesterday they were still not tradeable over Wi-Fi (even after the update). Some actual Gamestop Diancies also aren't giving any guaranteed perfect IVs (a server-sided issue with half codes starting with A4AZ and A4AA). It's like they're not putting any effort on this lol. Ya better hope your code starts with A4A2.

All KB legendaries (both ingame, like Zygarde, and event, like Celebi or Diancie, are supposed to have 3 guaranteed 31's in random stats).

Welp, went to gamestop and picked up 3 cards. All of them are A4AZ.

I think I might try another location tomorrow just before giving in.

What's this 'online at a taco store' you're referring to? Is there a different method of getting them?

GamePlanet. It's a mexican store similar to Gamestop, but gives the codes online (with a limit of codes). They've started giving these codes since the last Shiny Gengar event. On both the Gengar and Diancie ones, they've been heavily abused by "Hola" extension (I was one of them, being a South American is suffering :V), a lot of actual mexicans whined about not getting codes and now they're taking action to limit the range of it. Heard they managed to block Hola, but I won't know until the next event.

Welp, went to gamestop and picked up 3 cards. All of them are A4AZ.

If you care about the IVs you could wait until the issue is resolved. It's most certainly server-sided.

Well, I haven't used mine yet and later research after my post brought up mention of an update or something that supposedly fixes it (1.3?), so I'll look more into that tomorrow.

People on reddit have reported it still happening in 1.3, and even one day after the patch they still weren't tradeable online. Like I said, it's most likely server-sided, and unfixable after you redeem it. I'd wait a week.

Meanwhile, new OR/AS videos, mostly featuring new themes:

I'm so out of touch with gaming that I can't tell if that's sarcasm.

Not sure how well I'll be following this release - the demo and new designs have knocked the wind of out my sails a bit, and I won't even have the time to do so in a few weeks. I mostly want to see the landscapes at this point.

I live in Australia, where ORAS was originally priced $50 - 65 (thank you EB), so $44 is a godsend.

My sister had that happen twice actually. In Crystal, she found a purple Spinarak, and in Sapphire, a purple Wurmple. Both showed up before she was allowed Pokeballs to actually catch them...

Anyways, OR get! (it's $40 here in the US) Though I won't be able to play it until after work since I have to leave shortly.
I figured out how to play midi in games with a different device on Win7 ^^

Picked up Alpha Sapphire today.

Spoiler:
Man why is the male rival theme still pitched down compared to the female rival's theme? The latter is far superior and still is in the remake.
