So since the event legendaries are just around the corner I got to thinking.
The Pokemon that require codes in order to receive, how do you obtain said codes, specifically?
Do you ask the clerk? Do you need to buy something? It's never fully addressed.
distributors cant be assed to deal with people asking about it, so they just leave a stack of coupons on the counter for you to take

What's to stop someone from taking all the coupons?!
This isn't real. Or am I misinterpreting?
Plus if they did use just little slips of paper of the codes on, do they get them at the beginning of the months distribution period? Weekly? Bi-weekly? Just one shipment?
I feel like someone just to be a dick would take as many codes as they could get there hands on and then sell them for a nice penny on eBay or some shit.
/vp/ plz

>Do you need to buy something?
No, but some stores will tell you otherwise, usually out of ignorance but sometimes intentionally. Don't take their shit, just ask for the card.

What the fuck, how do you clerks working the shifts not see what these people are doing? I know it's GameStop but you'd think it would cause some serious outcry from pissed off parents who wasted a trip there just to be fresh out on day 1?

They see. They just don't care. To be quite honest, I don't really blame them.

I have never encountered any gamestops doing this in my area, unless you're referring to Distributors outside the US.
>>25067118
Same curiosity here. Most gamestops I visited kept tight hands on their code cards when a pokemon distribution is happening. Only guess would be a place outside US or some very shitty located gamestop.
Do Gamestops tend to run out of codes quickly? Should I show up on Feb. 1 to get my Mew?
somehow in 18 years of playing I've never gotten an event Pokemon
