A wha-?

This news item is more than 45 days old. Updates are unlikely and newer information may already be available.

That's right, on November 8th and 9th during the times of 12pm till 4pm, Toys-R-Us stores in America are offering a Level 50 Dragonite for your Diamond and Pearl games!

...

So its not exactly a Mew, Celebi, Shaymin or whatever, but it's Level 50! Normally Dragonair does not evolve until Level 55, so this Dragonite is allowed in Level 50 Official Tournaments. It's moveset is unknown, but apparently it will know some moves it doesn't at Level 50, making it even more special! If anyone US PKMN.NET-ers are going to this event, why not tell us how it went?

And who knows? Maybe you can hug someone in a Lance costume too? Dragon type fans never had it better...

Join us next month when the US gets a Shiny Magikarp! Hurray for giving the US everything and anything Pokémon related!

Well... this is certainly an odd choice. I'll definately be there, so I'll be getting two of these special Dragonites, and will probably keep one at level 50, just for the bragging rights. I'll also be resetting for nature and IVs on these, if they're given away via the man in the Pokemart, which I assume they will be.

I'm hoping we get them in the UK at some point... just incase I don't get a Dragonite in my Pokedex before then. xD And so I can confuzzle people with my underlevelled powers. :D

Why US, not the UK ; - ; Well, I guess it's special, so I'd wish I could get it :

I fully support this kind of promotional monster-- It sure is a change of pace from shiny-for-the-sake-of-shiny and/or can't-catch-without-cheating monsters... all those Pkmn NY ones aside. Plus, I never really raised a Dratini all the way to a Dragonite, so this'd be pretty neat! Now if only they release a promo Dozhydon in the future... I mean, Rhyperior. ._.;

Wait a minute.... any chance this Dragonite'll have BARRIER? That'd make me a happy Pokémon fan. :

Okay, good thing I live in the US. :)

Okay, list of things to do: 1. pray I get a new DS for my birthday... 2. after obtaining said DS, tell parents about upcoming event 3. convince parents to take me to get said Dragonite 4. after convincing, start hoping I'll get a decent nature / moveset 4. get said dragonite! 5. shout in glee, for i've always been too lazy to get my own dragonite xD ...yeaah. I can't wait |D

This event seems like a Saikyou. =O English language Saikyou's! That would be awesome!

I'll be able to get it even if it's US only, with a little thing called a computer
on Mon 13 Oct 2008 17:47:05 UTC.
Because computers can do everything now-a-days.
