== Pokedex Skins ==

Somebody should put in the Pokedex skin of the 3 starters that you can get from the global link for free. I could give it a try but I don't know how to do it properly and I might screw it up and I've heard moderaters in the past (on other wikia though) that you should just leave it to someone who's had experience so that they can do it well.

== Play To Befriend a Pokémon! Eeveelutions ==

I know that they were supposed to be available on May 5, but I don't think they are available yet. I have checked promotions, and even double checked that mine registered as saved on May 4, but I still see no sign of it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 14:06, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
:IIRC, it was only stated that the game would stop working on the 5th with no indication of when they would be available other than "soon" as stated by a notice on the site sent out on the 5th itself.--[[User:MisterE13|<span style="color:#0000FF">Mister</span>]][[User talk:MisterE13|<span style="color:#008000">'''E'''</span>]][[Special:Contributions/MisterE13|<span style="color:#800080">13</span>]] 15:21, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

== Customizing the C-Gear ==

How do you change the skin of the C-Gear once you have a new skin? [[User:Cmlobue|Cmlobue]] 02:01, 18 May 2011 (UTC)cmlobue

:Put a Pokémon to sleep, log on to PGL, click "Customize", select the skin you want, click "Customize Game", wake up your Pokémon and the skin should be changed. [[User:PkmnChmp5|PkmnChmp5]] 21:40, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

== Pikachu and Minccino C-Gear skins ==

The article says they're available on the English PGL, but I don't see them, nor did I see them when it was added. Is there some trick to doing it? --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 15:28, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
:They're not available, which is why everything about them is 'Unknown' or ???. Just like the Korean Pikachu skin, they're being prepared but haven't been released yet. [[User:Bluesun|Bluesun]] 05:21, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
"This skin was released for an unknown reason, for an unknown period of time." - this makes it sound like it has already been released. Is it that the data for the skin is on the European language and Korean sites, but have not yet been made available? --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 05:38, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
:Hm, perhaps the wording is a bit... at the time those were added there were other future promotions dated as if written after release, so I copied the same wording. And yes, that's right. [[User:Bluesun|Bluesun]] 15:43, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

== Pikachu C-Gear skin password cracked ==

GameFAQs user DTAC25 [http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/989552-pokemon-black-version/59667213?page=2 cracked the password] to the Pikachu C-Gear skin.  The knowledge of the password being "PikachuCGear" (no quotes, case sensitive) will now be common knowledge before any official promotion reveals it.  Givenn how simple the password is, no wonder it got cracked...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 15:54, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

== 2011 Pokemon Wold Championships C-Gear Skin ==

[http://en.pokemon-gl.com/campaign/]
[http://www.serebii.net/index2.shtml]
Can someone add this? The password is '''WorldsCGear'''. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:#007FFF; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span></small> 16:47, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

== About the Audino skin... ==

According to Serebii, it is available in the United States only. This is also supported by the fact that there is no mention of it on my (UK) Global link. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:#007FFF; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:#007FFF">'''X'''</span></small> 17:06, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
:Aren't the UK and US Global Links the same one? They're both [http://en.pokemon-gl.com/]. I heard it was on temporarily, then taken down. Maybe it's based on local time like the Worlds one? (P.S. It's not on my one either, and I'm from the UK) - [[User:Blazios|<span style="color:navy">Blazios</span>]] [[User Talk:Blazios|<span style="color:limegreen"><sub>talk</sub></span>]] 17:08, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
It seems to be indeed based on the location you set back when you make the account. Not in US? No Audino skin for you. I didn't set my location as US either, and I don't see the promotion or even the announcement for the Audino skin.[[User:Magnezone|Magnezone]] 03:01, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
:Doesn't appear for Australia either. Can anyone test Canada? --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 03:29, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
Zilch in the great north. No mention at all. [[User:Luxraychu|Luxraychu]] 00:48, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

== Zoroark ==

Is it possible to add a [http://bulbanews.bulbagarden.net/wiki/European_Zoroark_C-Gear_skin_currently_available second Bulbanews article] for the European release of the Zoroark skin? I'm not sure if the [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Template:Cgearskin  current template] allows it. - [[User:Blazios|<span style="color:navy">Blazios</span>]] [[User Talk:Blazios|<span style="color:limegreen"><sub>talk</sub></span>]] 20:29, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

== Victini ==

The Victini C-Gear skin is avalabe to at least english accounts now, but, not being a computer genius, I have no idea how to add that in. Could someone either tell me how or do it themselves? [[User:Sukineko123|Sukineko123]] 21:46, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

== Porygon2 ==

The Décor section for the Porygon2 doll has "kop=unique" in the Japanese section for some reason. I'm not sure what was intended though... --[[User:Enervation|Enervation]] 02:25, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

== Blastoise C-Gear Skin ==

Although they haven't officially revealed the password for the Blastoise C-Gear Skin which was released to European accounts today, I have discovered it to be '''EUPGL112011''' after I spotted the similarity between the two passwords for the other Kanto Starter C-Gear Skins. I would have added this directly into this page but, knowing Bulbapedia Policy about non-officially confirmed information, I decided instead to put it here instead first so that someone else can double-check the information then perhaps add it to this article as well as even write a Bulbanews Article about this. [[User:Lauraac2110|Lauraac2110]] 10:17, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

== Croagunk ==

I know the password for [[Poison Jab]] [[Croagunk]].
It's '''IGNRuggedMountain'''--[[User:K4kirin|K4kirin]] 02:54, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
:Croagunk event is happening in Brazil too. I believe that is happening over all the America.[[User:Maverick Hunter|Maverick Hunter]] 13:10, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
::I think it may actually be everywhere except Europe. Someone in Malaysia has gotten it too. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 13:38, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

:Just a bit of addition regarding the Croagunk C-Gear skin, it has been released internationally, and it seems that the password for UK is used for the international release. Someone in Serebii whose account has the country set to Indonesia was able to obtain it by using the UK password.[[User:Magnezone|Magnezone]] 04:12, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
I live in Thailand and still able to receive it with the code I posted. Oh, and one more thing, why is it special? You can always teach a poison jab TM to any croagunk?--[[User:K4kirin|K4kirin]] 01:35, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

== Winter Decor ==

There's nothing here about yesterdays release ofthe Winter Decor. [[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:#FFFFFF; background-color:#6890F0">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span>[[Latios (Pokémon)|<span style="color:red; background-color:#6890F0"> Δ  ]]</span> 08:18, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

== Crustle skin's Japanese name ==

Can someone double check that 「ちかいそ！ イワパレス」 is correct? If it was 「ちかいぞ！ イワパレス」, it would translate to "Close! Iwaparesu", whereas I can't seem to find anything for 「ちかいそ」 that makes sense. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 13:44, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

== Another Lucario promotion? ==

Since my Global Link account is registered to Singapore, I can't really call this "international" until I know better. There's an ongoing promotion for a Bullet Punch Lucario from 1 March 2012 to 25 May 2012, with the password to be retrieved from the EUROGAMER website. How come this promotion hasn't been added yet? In fact, I don't think Bulbanews has even reported it yet...

:International is used as a collective term for North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. And yes, it's already in both. You haven't looked hard I'm guessing. <span style="font-family:Cracked; font-size:125%">[[User:Tc26/Anime Predictions|<span style="color:#303030;">-tc</span>]][[User:Tc26|<span style="color:#e03828;">²₆</span>]][[User talk:Tc26|<span style="color:#303030;">tc</span>]][[User:Tc26/Sandbox|<span style="color:#e03828;">26-</span>]]</span> 07:36, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
::Hmm, it's there now. Odd, it definitely wasn't there sometime ago. But never mind. It's up now, that's what matters. {{unsigned|Haxorus}}

== Other Downloads ==

How do you get these? -- [[User:Pringles|Pringles]] 00:26, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
:Most of them are no longer active. You can see the start/end dates of each promotion here. A few of the promotions are continual, like the musicals and the pokedex skin (the ONLY pokedex skin for some reason) But some are over. [[User:PowerPlantRaichu|PowerPlantRaichu]] ([[User talk:PowerPlantRaichu|talk]]) 05:30, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
::Actually, the ones listed under other downloads are permanent, so none of them are no longer active. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 16:56, 13 September 2012 (UTC)

== Keldeo, Reshiram and Zekrom Dolls ==
I added a section for the International promo, but as the international promo adds Keldeo, should it have it's own box instead, or keep it in with the Japanese Reshiram & Zekrom promo? [[User:Pyrii|Pyrii]] ([[User talk:Pyrii|talk]]) 16:54, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
