    Ok, did we jump the gun, or was the Zeraora giveaway only at Gamestop in the states? Because I stopped by today at EB in Canada and they had nothing... WTF? Is it that stupid newsletter shit for us again up North? I swear if I can't get a Zeraora I am going to use Thunder Shock on every GameFreak Employee I meet from here on out.

    i dunno for you guys, but it's definitely gamestop in the states, and i rechecked serebii, and i didn't find zeraora for canada, and the canadian newsletter is reshiram and zekrom. worse case scenarion, i go again next week and grab a code for you.

    The Zekrom/Reshiram event should be the only event being given out through the Trainer Club Newsletter in Canada. According to the official Pokemon website, EB Games is doing the Zeraora event in Canada starting today. Maybe the store you went to just hadn't gotten their code cards in yet? That's sometimes happened to me when I've gone to Gamestop on the first day of an event. That or the employees had no idea what I was talking about (like when I went to Target today).

    That would be most appreciated as I'm not sure what the heck is up with Canada's distribution. The page I saw about code events said EB in Canada, the employee had nothing except Shiny Poipole, but I didn't bother taking it because... yeah, don't have an Ultra Moon yet and I already got a code for that thanks to you. ;)

    If anyone could hook me up with a Zeraora code I'd really appreciate it. Don't have a Gamestop close by

    Awesome Melmetal is really cool and cute.

    [​IMG]

    check out the dex entry

    Melmetal was worshiped in ancient times as a Pokémon with the power to create metal. Because of its Evolution from Meltan, its body has hardened and is now incredibly sturdy. Melmetal is made of liquid metal, and its flexible arms can be whipped forward to deliver a devastating punch. It can also execute a powerful, unique Steel-type physical move known as Double Iron Bash. By using the hex nut in its chest like an axle to spin its arms around, Melmetal can deal a double strike to its opponent. The weight of the heavy hex nuts on its arms combined with the spinning motion gives the Double Iron Bash move extraordinary power.

    By Serebii, apparently Double Iron Bash hits the opponent twice and may make them finch.

    (Kukui’s lab, Alola. Chad, Kukui, Burnet, Lusamine, and Lillie finish watching the video on Melmetal.)

    Chad: ...Wow...just wow...
    Burnet: Amazing...
    Kukui: I can’t believe a Pokémon like that exists!
    Lusamine: Truly remarkable.
    Chad: Well, I’m excited for the next adventure!

    Nice design. Reminds me a bit of the Regi's, and Metalman.exe from the Mega Man Battle Network games.
