4th Gen Shiny Johto Beast Events (Now happening on Wifi!)

[bobandbill]

Given out via Gamestop, and interestingly you can get all three... one each week. 3rd Jan to 11th it's Raikou, 17th to 23rd it's Entei, and 31st Jan to 6th Feb it's Suicune.

These are shiny and come with special moves, and will unlock an in-game event in B&W involving Zoroark.

Europe and Australia, etc will probably get it later (or just not announced yet, who knows).

Oooh. :0 Thats pretty amazing. Ive never actually done any events or anything. What do they do to put it on there?

MotherF... This is why I hate non Wi-Fi events.
Another chance to MISS OUT events. Great....... >_>

I know right!!! I was getting happy. To makes things worse, I'm in Nigeria so if they have something similar in the UK, I'll miss out :(

Unless someone clones and donates xD

Well I guess at worst if you have access to nintendo wifi you can always try trading for them. Better than it being Japan-only or being only on connection torus limited to the US/Japan I guess, back in the day.

I'm with the rest of the posters. I live in Romania, and there are no Gamestops here. Meaning that I won't get the event. )):
Even though I remember the Shiny Pichu. First, it was distributed in Gamestops (somewhere in February this year ? Correct me if I'm wrong), but it came on Wi-Fi just a week before the launch of HGSS. I just hope the Shiny Beasts will get the same treatment, as they got some really awesome movesets. (:

how exactly do i get it? thats cool tho i work rite next to a gamestop so a shiny event for me every week = pretty awesome

 

[Kai Yamato]

I wonder if it would add to the embarrassment if I bring BOTH version of the games to a Gamestop? >.>

 

[Kikaito plush]

Guess when it comes to my country I'll miss them again!!

I hate these type of events.

According to Pokemon.com, the beasts can be downloaded to all Gen IV games, so you technically could bring all five games, though people probably would start to give you weird looks after a while... :paranoid:

 

[Weber]

can some one tell me how to get these events, do you just have to be in the store while downloading them becuase thats alittle uncomfortable for me because im 20.... and so are my friends that also play pokemon....

I know about the dates and when to download them though.

edit #2, i can clone the beasts for those of you who cant get the event. just message me if your interested.

 

[Kip]

Oh look. Another event that I can't see or reach. Fantastic.

Seriously, if there's not a Wi-Fi event for this in Europe pretty damn quickly I'm going to jump of a building. A tall building.

Oh how I hope you're right. I'll be holding out for that :)

 

[Oblivion Wing]

Wow!!! That's awesome :D I've never been to a gamestop event giveaway, so I'm assuming that all gamestops (in the US) are going to be doing the same??

 

[telivision]

will this be in canadian eb games? i heard theyre sortof the same as gamestop

 

[GT-R]

I'm excited! I have HeartGold at the moment, and I'm getting SoulSilver and Platinum in a few days :) I will get one for all 3, haha. And since I'm 18... it might be kind of embarrassing. But, the official Pokemon site says you get them via wireless, so I'm hoping I can just sit in the front of the building in my car and hope that it will work.

 

[AHC]

Well I'm most likely going to get all three but you only need one for the event so I'll trade the Entei and Suicune to whoever wants it.

You need to activate Mystery Gift if you are playing Pearl, Diamond, and Platinum. If you have HeartGold or SoulSilver Mystery Gift is already activated. Then follow these instructions. I would of like for the Pokemon to have been distributed via Wi-Fi so people not living near a GameStop can get one.

same parent company, so maybe

So compassionate of you. :D
Anyhow, I'll just find someone who can trade it to me once B/W comes out here. Sigh. >_>
