It will eventually be a Wi-Fi Event anyway, that's what I'm telling myself. I missed so many Event-Pokémon but all of them eventually got a pretty good release, Wi-Fi, Dreamworld, whatever. So I will get this thing eventually, if not a friend of mine just has two and gives me one.
But, that serial code-thing is major bullshit and needs to die. Seriously. The first thing I had was that Charizard-thing. I have dozens of Charizards, but I wanted to see if some codes where left after a week. Of course there weren’t any left.
Then, Diancie. I don’t really want that thing since it looks too cute and pink and stuff (now I see the video where it's a major sword-fighting badass, thanks again GameFreak) so I didn’t go the first day. I was near the Gamestop 2 days afterwards, and thought I try my luck. And, of course, all gone. I had a nice chat with the GameStop-employee and he was so angry about the whole serial code-thing.
With the module thing, everyone could come there during the time the event was running and get the Pokémon, cool and calm, have a nice chat with the employees and all that good things. Now they have dozens of people (nasty people) standing in front of the door at morning the day the event starts, waiting for the shop to open, and plunder the codes. They try to give out only one at a time, but even then they are gone the next day. And then come the drama queens who think they deserve this code and start talking shit in the shop while children are there and stuff.
I guess this code thing is much easier for GameFreak/Nintendo, but god it sucks. And I hope it's gone when the next generation of Pokémon games comes along.
