Pokémon Sun & Moon - Coverage Day 15
The games have been out almost 2 weeks now and our coverage is starting to wind to a close. As usual, I'll be posting the main focal points here, while more in-depth details go on the discovery thread on the forums (including some details I won't post here). If you want to remain unspoiled, do not visit the Sun/Moon section until you have your game. Don't worry as blatant spoilers will NOT be on the home page. As the coverage is winding down, if there are any elements of the game that you wish me to cover, be sure to let me know
08:50: Updated the page on Festival Plaza page with further details
12:16: As per some requests, I've done a page on the quest from Eevee User Kategora

Pokémon XYORAS - Arceus Event
For those of you in Europe, Australia & North America, a second chance event for Arceus has gone live in both North America and Europe on XY & ORAS. In North America, this is through the code ARCEUS20 and in Europe it's through the code ARCEUS2016 and these codes can be redeemed until December 31st 2016. It won't work if you obtained Arceus during the events held around the world earlier this year.

Serebii.net Advent Calendar
As we have done since 2003, this year I have created an Advent Calendar. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the term, an Advent Calendar is essentially a countdown until Christmas. Every day, a new puzzle and a variety of new downloads for you to enjoy. As time goes on, the puzzles get harder and the downloads get more plentiful, so be sure to check back every day. Continuing on from the last few year, we are doing a variety of puzzles which can be done in-browser rather than via printing. Click the picture you go to our Advent Calendar.
