Another Pokemon Screw Up

My brother (Brendan Zheng) finished 3rd at Worlds last year for VGC. With B/W 2, one of the cool things is that there is new feature called the PWT, or Pokemon World Tournament. You can download characters/tournaments for this, and they're doing 3 downloads with the top 4 from Worlds in all 3 divisions as one of the prizes from Worlds.

Ijust downloaded the junior division tournament, released today. they ended up completely screwing up my brother's team.

if you scroll down here : http://serebii.net/black2white2/pwtdownload.shtml

You'll see that the team in game for Brendan has Politoed / Rotom-W / Kingdra / Amoonguss / Metagross / Cresselia.

However, Brendan used the team I used to win 2012 US Nationals at Worlds this year, which can be found here: http://nuggetbridge.com/reports/gradduation-da/

The teams are not alike at all.

how the hell do i explain this to my brother when he gets home?

tldr; pokemon screwed up. big time. we were really excited to see one of the best teams i've ever made get put into the game.

The article is for reigionals? I thought they were going to implement the Worlds finalists into the games for DL.

I am confused, sort of. No offense Prod- I am not certain as to where they messed up is all.
 
No...

They implemented the Worlds finalists into the games for DL today and they completely messed up my brother's team is what I am trying to say.

Sorry to hear about the mess up.
Not much they can do to change it at this point, though. The game is already released.

Explain to me your problem. I'm not sure I understand .The only thing I get from this is your team was leaked. Would that be correct?.

No, he's saying they used the entirely wrong team.

This would be like having them print a worlds finalist deck for Ross, and have it be ZPST instead of his truth decklist.

It's a downloadable event, not something programmed into the card. I think it should be possible to change things up server-side for people who download the event going forward. Hopefully the right people see this because it must be disheartening for a 9 year old to have this happen to them :(
 
Well to be fair the download wasn't suppose to even start till today...

But it's good they fixed in less than a day!
