So if you signed up for the newsletter in Canada now, you'd still get the demo on the 21st, right?

 

[Renta]

It seems to be monthly. I got the last one on Sept 25th.

I am signed up and ready, and judging by the fact I received last month's newsletter, I think I am set to go!!

So I probably need to add pokemon@email.pokemon.com to my contacts. Coz I got nothing of the sort.

 

[ugoo18]

Are the trainer club codes region locked?

 

[Mr-Joker]

Still waiting for my Code from Amazon. AHhhhhh can't ducking wait.

 

[Sadist]

Dat Mega Sceptile

Spoiler

As for a Mega Evo Pokemon, I found Glalie in the demo

 

[Demoli]

So, even tho i'm European, can i still get a code from the newsletter?

 

[Ibuki]

It wouldn't hurt. Make sure you are also opt-ed in on the actual site. It should be the very last checkmark in the settings page.

 

[Not75Drops]

So, even tho i'm European, can i still get a code from the newsletter?

No which is really dumb. NA's method is actually better because it isn't based on getting it from random places or stores that may or may not give you a code if you pre-order. You just get from the newsletter.

 

[jobrro]

Anyone from AU get it yet?

Not yet. I got the Smash code the other week though, have set my phone to alert me of every e-mail that comes through in anticipation.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

 

[Sadist]

Damn that Mega Swamper

Btw, about rewards for the full game;

Spoiler

The Glalie you catch can be sent over when you have the game. Including Mega Stone ofc

 

[The12thGripper]

Is there any reason why PokéBeach is saying "U.S. fans with a Pokemon Trainer Club account on Pokemon.com will be able to get the demo for the games starting tomorrow, October 15th!"?

Are they just talking out of their asses?

No, that's how Americans get the demo

 

[Charlie0108]

So how do I get a code from Amazon?

 

[Canon]

Do I just check this to get the demo?

I would like to receive marketing email messages, including information about future online games, from The Pokémon Company International.

 

[The12thGripper]

No, that's how Americans get the demo

So...why is everyone else saying it's the 21st they send out the codes.

 

[Starwolf_UK]

This demo is kind of odd and also amusing.

So...why is everyone else saying it's the 21st they send out the codes.

The Pokemon Company said opt in by the 20th which suggests they are sent out after that.

 

[The12thGripper]

Now you guys are just confusing me, which is it: tomorrow (the 15th) or next week (the 21st)?

 

[Starwolf_UK]

Non USA 15th for sure.

USA by 21st.

 

[Zenaku]

Any spare CoroCoro codes floating around? If so, please PM me

Same here. If anyone living in Japan has a spare code (or is willing to buy a copy/spare of CoroCoro to give me the code) I'll reimburse with a 500 yen eShop code (might be able to swing a 2nd one too, if necessary).

 

[Not75Drops]

So how do I get a code from Amazon?

If you have purchased Pokémon X or Pokémon Y via Amazon.co.uk, Smyths Toys, ShotTo.net or the Nintendo UK Official Store you may receive an email with your code.

you have already pre ordered Pokémon Omega Ruby & Pokémon Alpha Sapphire via Amazon.co.uk, *********** or the Nintendo UK Official Store you may receive an email with your code.

lol

 

[decaf]

Anyone have a spare code?

 

[ramyeon]

So today's the day for Australia! I hope they don't limit sending codes to people who registered X/Y to Club Nintendo (For whatever reason I never did that and can't find my code) I have a feeling they will though.

 

[Charlie0108]

lol

So I might not even get one? Going to pop into GAME tomorrow I think

 

[SixStringPsycho]

How many codes do we get?

 

[Sadist]

Hey what was that thing popping out of the grass?

 

[Drago]

Just made a trainer club account today, lol. I guess I had already made one since my default email was already being used but I totally forgot my account info :x

Hopefully they send codes out for us tomorrow!

 

[Starwolf_UK]

Hey what was that thing popping out of the grass?

If you're talking about black patches. Those are Pokemon battles. In the full version you can use the bottom screen to bring up info (like ability and moves).

 

[Kouriozan]

It's already available, aww.
France has to wait at least 15 more days

 

[SweetDonuts]

Seems a bit early for the demo to be out but oh well, to GAME tomorrow I'll go.

 

[Sadist]

Ah thanks.

Anyway, for the curious folks, demo summary:

Spoiler

- Begins in Mossdeep City; Steven will act as your portal to adventure
- First fight starts there, you get to choose an almost lvl 36 Combusken, Grovyle or Marshstomp
- Will head towards an Island where you fight against Team Aqua and Magma members
- You'll fight against Team Aqua and Magma admins with Steven, before this fight you receive a mega evo stone
- After the fight you'll fight and fight Glalie, with a mega evo stone. If you buy the full game, you can send this Glalie over to it. It's at lvl 40 btw.
- If you complete the demo after the first time, you get Glalie, Swampert, Sceptile and Blaziken in your team. All with mega evo Stones.
- Second time you start up the demo you fight three trainers in a grassy area.
- Third time you can meet more folks on Mossdeep
- Afterwards you travel to an Island with two trainers. You need to find a Whismur to end the demo.
- You also receive a Pokeball set, which can be sent over to the full game
- Fourth time you visit the same Island as before, but now you need to find a Poochyena
- Fifth time you have to fight an expert. Also, you can send Heal Balls to your full game.
- seventh time, a wild Flannery appears. But she's being interviewed by a tv crew.
- demo playthrough nine: you get a set of heartscales for the full game

 

[MicH]

So Mega Steelix is JP demo only? That sucks, Mega Steelix is so much cooler than Mega Glalie

 

[Starwolf_UK]

Ah thanks.

Anyway, for the curious folks, demo summary:

Things to note are:

Spoiler

- after second time you have the 3 starters at level 36 (even if you got yours to a higher level) and the Glalie at level 40. All with mega stones
- it appears the adventures after the first are randomized and/or happen in a random order.
- rewards stop at the 10th adventure?
- Steelix is Japan only?

 

[ramyeon]

Reading this makes me feel a bit better, even if I don't end up getting a code at least I'm not missing out on too much.

 

[ZeroX03]

My Australian code just arrived.

 

[Shun]

I'm more interested in learning the new Base State totals for Mega Starters and Glalie.

Serebii do your magic.

 

[javac]

I pre-ordered the steelbooks of both games on Nintendo's official Store, I hope I get a code :/

 

[ugoo18]

How do i get my AU code?

 

[MrCookiepants]

How do i get my AU code?

Think they're emailed to random Club Nintendo members. I didn't get one.

 

[ramyeon]

:O! I got an Australian code just now too!

Edit: Downloading now. Wasn't expecting to get a code so I'm pleasantly surprised.

 

[jobrro]

:O! I got an Australian code just now too!

Me too

 

[ugoo18]

Damm not CN emails again, i can't remember if i opted out of receiving emails and i can't seem to find any setting on the site to check.

 

[Bleep]

My Australian code just arrived.

Yep, I got one too.

 

[Super Stardust]

My Australian code just arrived.

what did you do to get it?

 

[ramyeon]

what did you do to get it?

They're sent randomly to Club Nintendo members.

 

[Sadist]

I'm more interested in learning the new Base State totals for Mega Starters and Glalie.

Serebii do your magic.

Sceptile: att 73 def 59 SpA 87 SpD 73 Spe 98
Blaziken: att 98 def 62 SpA 91 SpD 62 Spe 69
Swampert: att 91 def 77 SpA 73 SpD 77 Spe 54
Glalie: att 77 def 77 SpA 70 SpD 72 Spe 69

In the demo, starters at 36, Glalie at 40

 

[Mr-Joker]

Looks so cool.

Spoiler

Should have been a proper evolution, so disappointing

 

[MicH]

So far we know:

EU gets Mega Glalie
JP gets Mega Steelix

God, Mega Steelix looks amazing in motion

 

[ZeroX03]

They're sent randomly to Club Nintendo members.

Is it random? I use CN more than anyone else I know and I'm the only one who got a Smash code as well.

 

[ramyeon]

Is it random? I use CN more than anyone else and I'm the only one who got a Smash code as well.

I would assume so. I almost never use CN. Never redeemed any points from it and I hadn't bought a 3DS game in about a year until Fantasy Life & Smash Bros.

Edit: Is it just me or is the framerate when battling in 3D not completely terrible now?
