Pokémon Global Link: Information and Items - Lythania - May 26, 2016
WARNING It's been a hot minute since I've been on here, but a post in my twitter feed from Serebii made me think to come back to this particular thread. PGL is about to get the axe, so spend your Poké Miles ASAP!!!
Quote:The Pokémon Global Link will go down on February 24th 2020 at 23:59 UTC. From then on, all gameplay elements which required access to it in the generation 7 games will be non-functioning. All other online components of those games will work.
Introduction I was writing up a response for something and realized that there may be some people here who are unaware of the benefits of the PGL's PokéMileage Club.
This won't be a perfect post but I'm going to explain how to register for the Pokémon Global Link as well as the items you can get from the club's shop and minigames.
(I would mostly recommend this to those who use the GTS or use Wonder Trade a lot.)
I hope this helps out and that I didn't mess anything up. If I missed anything helpful, please let me know, and I'll add it in!
How to Register (According to an IGN Wiki article)1: Create an account at the Pokémon Global Link.
2: Connect your game to the internet using the Player Search System app in Pokémon Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire. (Or in X/Y.)
3: Press Start/Select while on the PSS app to open the folder option. Scroll to the right to find the Game Sync Icon. Press this icon to find your 16-character Game Sync ID.
4: Go to the Pokémon Global Link website and sync your Pokémon game with your account.
Poké Miles Information (According to a PGL article and a Bulbapedia Article)- Send your Poké Miles to the PGL by using Game Sync. (Warning: Once sent, these cannot be returned to your game/cartridge.)
- If you wish to keep your Poké Miles in your game instead of sending them to your PGL account, you can change the Game Sync settings via the in-game Game Sync menu so that no Poké Miles are sent.
- In OR/AS, check how many Poké Miles you have by looking at your Trainer Card.
- Collect Poké Miles by trading Pokémon via the Global Trade Station (GTS) (and I believe by Wonder Trading as well), or by connecting with other players using the Nintendo 3DS's StreetPass feature.
- You can also earn Poké Miles through the Pokémon Bank if you have it. It gives you a choice between Poké Miles or Battle Points. You receive 100 Poké Miles when Pokémon are deposited for the first time into Pokémon Bank. Additional Poké Miles are awarded for the length of time that a given Pokémon is deposited into Pokémon Bank. The amount of Poké Miles you earn increases if more Pokémon are deposited into Pokémon Bank.
- To send any items bought via the PGL's online PokéMileage Shop or earned via attractions/minigames, perform a Game Sync. There will be a delivery girl in any Pokémon Center with your items.
- The items you can receive supposedly differ between X/Y and OR/AS, but I'm not exactly sure how. If you're playing X/Y and discover differences, please let me know!
In-Game PokéMileage Shop (According to a Bulbapedia article)- XY Exchange NPC: A Butler in Lumiose City's South Boulevard Pokémon Center.
- ORAS Exchange NPC: A Gentleman in Mauville City's PokéMileage Center in the northwest of the city.
- Here you can exchange your Poké Miles for a variety of items in-game.
- You can buy many of the PokéMileage Shop's items in-game, but I strongly urge you to buy them online instead, as the prices are far steeper in-game.
- There is a difference between the items you can buy in-game and the items you can buy via PGL. (In-Game Only: Ultra Ball --- PGL Only: Lemonade, Heart Scale)
- The price listed is for each item individually. The PM number after the name of each item is how much more expensive the item is in-game than it is on the PGL.

PGL PokéMileage Shop - Here you can exchange your Poké Miles for a variety of items online.
- You need to have 20 medals or more in order to be able to buy a Heart Scale, Max Revive, Rare Candy, and PP Up. You need to do certain things in-game to earn medals. For a list of these medals, check out Bulbapedia's articles for medals in XY and ORAS.

- Every level, with the exception ot the Mine Cart Adventure game, costs 100 Poké Miles. The levels of the Mine Cart Adventure game cost a different amount.

RE: Pokémon Global Link: Information and Items - Black117 - May 26, 2016
This is a great guide @Lythania , and for people who don't use the listing of all the PGL items. I encourage anyone in the forums to collect Poke Miles so anyone can get a potentially unlimited supply of PP Ups, PP Max, Rare Berries, Rare Candies, Heart Scales, Trade Evolutions Items, and even a couple Master Balls if luck is on your side. Some of these items are fairly easily to get in game assuming one already has a competitive team already, but I'd personally stock up on those PP Ups/Maxs since there are a very limited number in the games. Some of the minigames are fairly simple except for going for rare items especially the Master Ball. Like I did over like 200+ sessions of Mine Cart Adventure before I finally got one. Still this is a great way to get these items before asking help.
RE: Pokémon Global Link: Information and Items - Lythania - May 26, 2016
Thanks @Black117! I figured that this is a nice alternative way to get some of these items, especially stuff that you can flatly buy from the PGL Shop. I mean.. If someone has loads of Poké Miles then why not use them for something useful? :D
I personally like buying the Rare Candies and Heart Scales and recently earned a spare Destiny Knot just in case I need it sometime in the future. The games can be a bit of a pain if you're angling for specific items but they're fun enough if you have time to spare.

RE: Pokémon Global Link: Information and Items - big bird - May 26, 2016
So I've been playing Mine Cart Adventure to get Master Balls, and I've got one out of about 2k points spent. What I don't understand is that you don't even have to get an A to get the rarest reward, it's totally random :I
RE: Pokémon Global Link: Information and Items - Marcusube - May 26, 2016
I really hate how rare the Master Ball is, as I've played this minigame several times and ended up walking out with every other Pokeball. Pokemiles are a good resource which you get from using Pokebank and by triggering in-game events such as walking about 200 steps per Pokemile. Players who breed and soft reset for legendaries should take it into consideration
RE: Pokémon Global Link: Information and Items - Lythania - May 26, 2016
@"Red Lake" Yeah.. The complete randomization of the rewards really does suck.
@Marcusube I totally forgot about the Poké Miles you can earn through the Pokémon Bank!! Thank you for reminding me, I added that to the post! :D
