Announcing Bonuses for Existing PGL Players Who Play on the Pokémon X and Pokémon Y PGL

September 20, 2013　The Pokémon Company - Thank you for your continued support of the Pokémon Global Link (PGL)! As we announced on July 1, 2013, the Pokémon Global Link site for Pokémon Black Version, Pokémon White Version, Pokémon Black Version 2, and Pokémon White Version 2 will begin to close down later this year. We are happy to reveal that bonuses will be offered to existing players when they log in to the new PGL with their current PGL account and register a copy of Pokémon X or Pokémon Y.

Exchange Dream Points for Poké Miles Automatically

Current PGL players will receive Poké Miles in the Pokémon X and Pokémon Y PGL depending on how many Dream Points they have.

Poké Miles can be used in the PokéMileage Club (launching soon) to play in attractions or to receive items in the shop. These items can then be sent back to Pokémon X or Pokémon Y games via Game Sync.

Poké Miles can also be accumulated by playing Pokémon X and Pokémon Y. These Poké Miles are sent to the PGL via Game Sync, and can then be used in the PokéMileage Club. More details about acquiring Poké Miles will be announced when at the opening of Pokémon X and Pokémon Y PGL.


Your Dream Points are calculated by combining the Dream Points from all games registered to your current PGL account. To be specific, if you have Pokémon Black Version, Pokémon White Version, Pokémon Black Version 2, and Pokémon White Version 2 registered to your account, your Dream Points will be calculated by combining the total amount of Dream Points from each game.

The number of Poké Miles will be determined based on the combined total of Dream Points from all games registered to your current PGL account, and that number of Poké Miles will be given to copies of both Pokémon X and Pokémon Y that are registered to your account.

For example, if you qualified to receive 10,000 Poké Miles, you would receive 10,000 Poké Miles when you register a copy of Pokémon X or Pokémon Y and another 10,000 Poké Miles if you registered the other version to your account as well, for a total of 20,000 Poké Miles.

Special Medal Awards

Based your accomplishments in the current PGL, you may be awarded special Medals in the Pokémon X and Pokémon Y PGL. You may also receive Medals depending on what you accomplish in your game and in the new PGL. These Medals are not available in the game, and can be checked only in the Pokémon X and Pokémon Y PGL.

The commemorative Medals awarded to existing PGL players will be exclusive to them and cannot be obtained through other means.


Global Battle Union (GBU) - Placed in the top 100 overall ranking in a GBU Season. The current season, Season 10, is excluded as it will not have a ranking.

Wi-Fi Competitions - Obtained a ranking in a Wi-Fi Competition (a different Medal depending on how many times)

All the numbers above are calculated by taking the combined total of the numbers from all games registered to your current PGL account. Details about the Medals you receive can be checked on the Medals page in the Pokémon X and Pokémon Y PGL. Medals you receive as a result of your accomplishments in the current PGL will be given to both Pokémon X and Pokémon Y if you register both to your account.
