Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire may be due out in only a few short days, but that hasn’t stopped Pokemon X and Y from receiving a couple more events in Japan. The first event, “Japanese Charizard Event” is exactly what you would expect, allowing players to download either a shiny Charizard holding Charizardite Y or a shiny Pikachu. The event will run from December 12th through January 16th at the Pokemon Center in Tokyo to commemorate the opening of the new venue.

The second “Linoone Event” will take place at Jump Festa 2015 on December 20th and will feature several gifts, the first of which is a special Linoone. The Linoone in question is Level 50 with the moves Extreme Speed, Helping Hand, Baby-Doll Eyes and Protect and holds a Focus Sash. Participating in a special battle competition will win players a PP up or a PP max. Also featured at the event are special QR codes for Super-Secret bases for special guests Ayana Tsubaki, Nobuhiko Okamoto, Aoi Yuki, Emi Nitta, Aoi Shota & Ban Megumi

I think the general hint today is that Sakurai would really like you to try Smash Tour:

There are three types of game boards. If you turn on the Custom Fighters option, the fighters will be preset with custom special moves. The number on a fighter’s portrait on the game board indicates which custom move set that fighter is using–this also adds to the randomness of this mode.
