    Might get three of them before I go to work on Thursday. One for each D/P/Pt... I might give the third on away tho.

  • I planning on going this Saturday with two of my friends. We don't have a Gamestop where I live in Arizona, so we'll probably go to Prescott or Flagstaff.

  • I won't get it, for I have no way to trade it to HG. And I don't trust online people, so I couldn't use wifi. And lastly, I like to restart my Pokemon games, so it will just get erased if I somehow transfer it anyway.

    Wait, do you have to trade in Pokemon Diamond or Pearl of Platinum for the Pichu or do you just have to show them you have the game?

    You just walk in and receive it as a Mystery Gift VIA wireless... (Assuming you unlocked Mystery gift...)

    Edit: I'll try to get one, I can't around here, so I'll probably have to trade for one...

  • Yep I'm getting one. Me and my girlfriend are going to gamestop to get some. Although I can get three for my D/P/Pt games I have.

    I...am stuck in the gutter.

    Ahh, so, it didn't work.
    I'm guessing not all GameStops are participating, like rockman said. Even though I know that, I'll keep trying. :T

  • If anyone is unable to get the Pikachu Colored Pichu, and would like one. Give me a Pm and i'll be glad to trade you one. Trade me a junk Pokemon in return. Also i will be getting the Jirachi Event when it comes around, so same deal for that one also.

  • From January 30th to February 14th, You can get the Pikachu colored Pichu if you want in order to encounter the Notched Ear Pichu in Ilex Forest. Don't believe me, here's the link: https://www.pokemon.com/us/special/shiny_pichu

    Tell why or why not you will get it, 'kay?

    Yes, I happened to be in Gamestop because my wonderful girlfriend was buying me some gamecards. I had my DS on me, as I do usually, and I noticed the poster on the front door. I didn't "plan" on going to get the Pichu, but I did stumble upon it.

    Hey, it's a free shiny Pokemon that has some sort of "collectible" status, so I put forth the effort of getting it via the Mystery Gift option, and then left the store.

    I'm quite fond of it, actually.

    Fudge yea! I'm hoping my mom will take me tomorrow. REALLY hoping, I won't evolve it 'cuz ew. And, I'll be getting the spiky-eared pichu when HG/SS comes out.

    I just got mine. :3 Actually, I downloaded three: one on my Pearl, one for my friend on his Pearl, and one on my brother's extra Diamond. When I got there, I couldn't download it, and after I pre-ordered my copy of Soul Silver and asked the lady at the counter, she said, "Oh yeah. We're having it right now," and she whipped out a DS so that my brother and I could download the Pichu. I wasn't expecting for them to have one cartridge in a DS to give out the Pichu (that only happened to me once at the TRU Manaphy event), so I'm glad I asked instead of just calling it quits. I thought it was going to turn out event-less, like the last two GameStops I tried. xD

    Also, the lady told me about the Jirachie event, so now I know they'll have that one instead of worrying they won't. :)

    Oh yeah; I won't evolve my Pichu. I already have the Level 100 PKTOPIA Raichu on my team.
