Hey at least we'll be able to search and trade for it properly now though I don't think many of us will have Mews, Meloettas, Darkrais, or Genesects level 1 to 10 Rolling Eyes

I really wish they would put a level limit for legendary Pokemon because I mean who even has level 1 legendaries anyways? Besides the movie arceus event in SS & HG

I also want all my Pokémon to be legit, so even if I've known about Volcanion for a while, it means I'll get the chance to have one and use one.

Seems like an awfully short time after Hoopa was made available though.

Hoopa was distributed mid-summer in Japan and it's early winter now, since it was just revealed in Japan. This won't be distributed until mid-summer next year, likely, since its a movie distribution Pokemon. Thus, you probably won't get it in the West until around the same time as Hoopa this year. Sounds a bit late, but this is just a little earlier of a Japanese reveal, combined with the later Hoopa distribution in the West, and the fact that all reveals are synced across borders... so it only seems soon when it's just the West's schedule that has been altered. =P

Ah, all right then. Reveals are simultaneous, but the actual releases are not?

Otherwise, it would've felt suspiciously rushed.

Makes sense though. I notice event Pokémon tend to get movies, and the in-game releases are tied to the movie releases.
