Some will be dicks about it even when asking just for 2. I had the gamestop guy flip out on me just because I asked for an extra was like no man I only have this many pulls a big stack till last me till may and I found that hard to believe when I heard half way in the month they got restocked with more cards. But w.e it's just a Pokemon

maybe he's secretly reselling them. i wouldn't put it past them if they learn how desperate some folks get.
 
I had the newsletter sent to two different email addresses so I have an extra set of bird codes. I'd like to trade for a Darkrai code. PM me. If I don't reply, somebody beat you to it.

EDIT - GONE!
 
So,i had no idea they were distributing via newsletter as well, where on the main site do you sign up for that, so I can take advantage of any future ones? I feel like I had to have overlooked it lol
 
If anyone has a homebrew enabled 3ds, there is a piece of home brew called Mystery Machine that allows you to get past and current mystery gift events. There are also a few future events like the 20th Arceus and the shiny X/Y legendaries. Also the brid trio.

Because of this, I might have an extra NA Mew and Darkrai code. I was gonna gove them to my sister first but if she dont want them I'll post them later.

If it says "Your game cannot receive the gift this code provides." then your code is of a different region than your game. Remember code events are region locked. If it says something different refer to this page to determine what is wrong.

Yeah, I think I got sent USA codes instead of UK ones :/
 
Have an extra NA Darkrai code on hand. Kinda want to trade it for an NA Mew code, since I didn't end up soft resetting for the one I used. Anyone up to trade?
 
Well the newsletter sent me bunk codes and the customer service won't do anything about it. They told me they couldn't resend and don't have anymore newsletters?

So if anyone wants to help me out with those birds let me know! I have some decent monsters if you request a trade!
 
I have an NA Darkrai code!

I'm looking for a legit Pokemon to trade for it - maybe a Zekrom or Ho-oh, but would take offers!

Hey, guys, in case you didn't know - there's 3 different legendary pokemon that will be available through the "receive gift, Internet" this month.

First one starts today. It's Zygarde.

This was the announcement about the legendary bird distro.

Aww, I've been signed up for ages but must have reflexively turned off the promotional emails :/

Probably a long shot, but if anyone has a spare code for the birds, I would be forever grateful. I don't have anything to offer as I already gave away my spare Mew and Darkrai codes :/
 
They're not sending more newspapers right? I never got mine and I just checked and I am subscribed.

So weird. Why do you do this to me Nintendo :/
 
Three birds, darkrai, and zygarde, all in one week. Nintendo cray.

There's no way to get Volcanion legit, is there? Looks like the only giveaway was in Japan, and none of the legendaries being given out in NA are Volcanion so far. Still kicking myself for missing out on Diancie and Hoopa previously.

Also, slight off-topic aside where would I go if I wanted to get cherrim? ORAS hasn't spawned the right mirage spot for me, and I've been trying to get it forever. I've had crescent isle repeat several times, but still no mirage spot with cherrim.

Volcanion will happen closer to the movie.
 
Craaaaap. I had no idea about the Pokemon Trainer newletter sign-up to get the 3 legendary birds giveaway.

Oh well, at least one of them is catchable in X/Y, and I can get them in the DS games I have. You can still move Pokemon from Black 2/White 2 to the Pokebank, right?
 
So I totally didn't realize I had to confirm I wanted to keep receiving the Trainer Club Newsletter. Oops...

I would love to trade some spare Mew codes I have for the Bird Trio if anyone's got.
