Another month, another distribution and yet another MESS (at least here in America), you guys in Europe are very lucky to receive these new events through Mystery Gift, I hate codes way so much, wish it was the same here in America

I really don't understand why they are doing something like that the newsletter was a failure, now you guys have only one week to get the codes... why not a full month like always?? And why not a simple Mystery Gift?? Also, they introduced the QR codes with SM but never used them (only for Magearna and Partner Pikachu... that's pointless!)

Yep, you are totally right, QR codes might be the next step for distribution, but NO, GF decides to follow this hard and pointless methods that are destined to be a completely mess and failure, 8 months left, so what's next
