Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia - Extra Missions
Just some news to let you know that the two special missions; Dialga in Hia Valley? & Palkia in Haruba Desert!? are now available in the US. The official site does not state any specific time that these missions will expire. However, unlike the three other missions available until the end of the month, these missions do not allow for the transfer of Dialga & Palkia to your Diamond or Pearl games. We'll update when we have the European Release data. Click the picture to go to the Extra Mission page for tips

Movie 12 News
It's starting to reach that time of year again where more merchandise in preperation for the 12th Movie is beginning to trickle out and as such AAPF has obtained a flyer for the first bit of merchandise. This merchandise, 5 different sets of stickers, confirm that there is a Pokémon yet to be revealed, known on the merchandise as "Pokémon A". This Pokémon is more than likely Arceus, but we won't know for sure until later this month when the new Pokémon will be revealed in the World Hobby Fair on the 18th/19th. The merchandise also contains Heatran, possibly hinting to the fact that Heatran will be in the 12th movie. What will its role be in the fight between the three deities? We'll have to wait and see. Click the picture for all we know of the 12th movie.
