The Pokemon Company announced earlier this summer that the Pokemon Global Link site will close down for Pokemon Black, Pokemon White, Pokemon Black 2 and Pokemon White 2. Luckily for existing players who will continue playing Pokemon X and Y there will be bonuses given out in the form of Poké Miles and Special Award Medals.

 

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.































Dream Points for Poké Miles Chart
Dream Points* Poké Miles**
10,000–49,999 Dream Points » 500 Poké Miles
50,000–99,999 Dream Points » 3,000 Poké Miles
100,000–199,999 Dream Points » 10,000 Poké Miles
200,000 Dream Points or more » 25,000 Poké Miles

*Combined total from all games registered to your account.
**Points given to each game you register to your account.

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.
