Who did you pick from the Arceus Event?
 
I chose Palkia because he is the coolest looking of the dragon trio not to mention hes water dragon

Lt_Nite March 24th, 2010 3:46 PM

Probably Giratina so I could get him in Origin forme, and he is quite the looker.

Hobusu March 24th, 2010 3:48 PM

I haven't gotten around to doing it yet, but I'm going to pick Giratina. Not just because it's my personal favorite, but also because doing so is the only way to get Origin Forme Giratina(s) in SoulSilver.

Sardonix March 24th, 2010 11:58 PM

Since I don't have Arceus, I won't be getting either of them, but I also have all three on Platinum, so I'm good. I have no worries. I don't use Legendaries, so yeah. I'm good.

Kikaito plush March 25th, 2010 12:38 AM

As soon as Curtis' brother gives me my Arceus I will be picking Diagla.

Gulpin March 25th, 2010 6:05 AM

Giritina so I could have him in origin form ^^

Xine March 25th, 2010 6:55 AM

Dialga, my favorite of the trio ^^

Panique March 25th, 2010 7:27 AM

Does it work with any Arceus?

I'd probably pick.. Giratina. And if I can use it again on Silver, Dialga.

Heart Gold March 25th, 2010 7:29 AM

I'm going to choose Giratina, the Origin Form is my favorite.

Fire Wolf March 25th, 2010 7:47 AM

I got Giratina, as that event is the only way to get Giratina Origin Forme in HGSS.

Åzurε March 25th, 2010 9:58 AM

Giratina, for the Griseous Orb. You can trade over Dialga and Palkia, but you can't get Origin Gira any other way.

JBW March 25th, 2010 11:20 AM

Giratina, cus i could never decide between dialga and palkia when D/P came out. to settle it im just going to pick giratina.

Wild Electrode March 25th, 2010 11:25 AM

I'm waiting for an American release of that Arceus, but Giratina is my second favorite Pokemon, and it's the only way to get him in origin form, so yeah. I'm choosing him.

American release came out September/November of 2009.

On topic, I am going to pick Giratina.

Amazing_NeoSteelX March 25th, 2010 2:43 PM

I didnt get the Arceus Event But If I did I would pick Palkia,It has no weaknesses other than Dragon Types, and it has greater base stats than all the others!

Yohosh March 25th, 2010 2:45 PM

What is this event? I never heard of it before, can I access it from canada?

Droidz March 25th, 2010 5:24 PM

When i get up to it I'll pick Dialga because in my opinion it looks the best.

No it didn't, the American version just came out about two weeks ago so why would they have the event during September/October...


Anyway I would choose the less rediculous looking one (Dialga) since I could care less about a Flying Tapeworm (Giratina)

Ninja Caterpie March 26th, 2010 1:34 AM

Hoping that Aussie Arceus my friend has will work. D=

Manganum March 26th, 2010 3:22 AM

Giratina, yeah. I've also heard that this event can be done twice; Once with the special Movie 12 Arceus, and once with a regular Arceus traded from D/P/Pt. So if that works, I'll get Giratina for the Griseous Orb, and then Palkia, because he's so incredibly awesome :3

If this hasn't already been answered, the TRU Arceus from Toys R Us in Sept/Nov is the American Event that unlocks it, I will post you a link to serebii if you want me to to prove it. However, this is the last I will speak on the matter because I don't want to turn this into a flame fight.

Got my Giratina yesterday with the US Arceus Event!

SIN1488 March 26th, 2010 2:38 PM

I will most likely get Giratina, but I'm not sure yet. With the TRU Arceus, can you do this event at any time as long as you can reach the location of it in the game? Or will I not be able to do it after a certain amount of time?

Just want to make sure.....

Gamefreaked March 26th, 2010 4:56 PM

Probably Giratina, its my favorite and by far the coolest looking.

Wifi darkrai April 4th, 2010 2:20 PM

I'm gonna choose Giratina, because his origin forme looks cool.

Cataclysmic April 4th, 2010 2:31 PM

I chose Giratina on my Japanese HeartGold and Palkia on SoulSilver. Giratina is my favorite out of the trio, and I played Pearl way more than Diamond so I chose Palkia in honor of it.

Spikey-Eared Pichu April 4th, 2010 2:33 PM

Giratina for one reason:

YOU CANT TRADE OVER THE GRISEOUS ORB!

Gonna trade Dialga and Palkia over from Platinum.

curiousnathan April 4th, 2010 2:39 PM

I am not up to this event yet. So I am still deciding on which one to choose..
I was thinking of Girantina and then trading Dialga and Palkia across from my Platinum version, it is not cheating which makes me feel good though! :)

Sobriquet April 4th, 2010 2:42 PM

Gonna go with Palkia since I never had Pearl. If trading that Arceus from SS to HG works then I'll get Giratina also.

Origin Form Giritina says Hi.

umbreon_4_life April 5th, 2010 1:06 PM

Probably the Giratina. I also have Diamond, and my sister has Pearl, so I can trade Dialga and Palkia over if I want them in my 'Dex. I lost my Platinum, so... Giratina's a soul reminder of my long gone Platinum game. Oh, the sadness!

Amore April 5th, 2010 1:19 PM

Lol, well.....

I got Dialga first time, due to how it would help against Lance and Clair (also helped against Morty, considering the struggle with just normal pokemon from the game).

However, its' special attack, Metal Burst, is pointless.The only thing it could kill is a Sneasel/Weavile, as Dialga is faster than everything else weak to Steel, and resists them aswell.

I'll probably choose Palkia this time, as I have Diamond and Platinum, so could get 2 of each that way.

Although, Giratina is cool aswell....


a question.Does anyone know if you just have to wait for it to be created to know whether the pokemon's Shiny?Because their shinies are all good.

FireApe2135 April 5th, 2010 1:25 PM

I have gotten Giratina on HG, and Dialga on SS, will get Palkia if I can get ahold of a legit azure flute Arceus

Master Kavar April 5th, 2010 2:33 PM

Go giratina coz it can change forms and it looks awsome overall XD

GlitchCity April 5th, 2010 2:56 PM

Sadly I dont have an Arceus :[ but if I did it would either be Palkia or Giratina in origin forme.

BabyPanda April 5th, 2010 3:22 PM

i didn't chose yet, i want to get all the 3 but i can pick only one of them.
so i want to get 2 of them from trade and then i'll pick the one that i don't have.

hoboX10 April 5th, 2010 9:08 PM

Hey does anyone know if the Giratina you get from this event is ALWAYS in origin form even if it doesn't have that orb thing with it? (I skipped D/P/Pt games but I plan on getting Platinum in the future now that I've played HeartGold lol)

Serris April 5th, 2010 11:45 PM

I would've chosen Dialga if it didn't have a horrible sprite. And I didn't want to SR for good natures. But I chose Giratina for being the deity of anti-matter :3

FreakyLocz14 April 6th, 2010 12:14 AM

I picked Giratina because I already had Dialga and Palkia and traded them over from Platinum. I traded away my Platinum Giratina.

Livewire April 11th, 2010 7:26 PM

I chose giratina, and once the new arceus event comes out ill go get palkia since it is the only one of the three i dont have currently.

well giratina always comes with the griseous orb, so it will always be in origin form when you choose it

Eon-Rider April 12th, 2010 9:39 AM

I chose Giratina and it's the only logical choice as it is the only legal way to obtain the Griseous Orb for now. I facepalm at you if you chose either of the other two.

falco635 April 12th, 2010 1:05 PM

Giratina, but you can do it again. So I'm not sure who I'm going to chose next time.

Jaames April 12th, 2010 1:27 PM

im picking giratina as it is the only way to get him in origin form :)

JustinDestruction April 12th, 2010 1:35 PM

Yeah, I really feel bad for anyone that didn't choose Giratina... unless they will get the second one and get it that way. I mean. I guess it's not the most important thing ever, but to an OCD Pokémon fan like myself, I need to unlock its origin form.

Uruk April 21st, 2010 1:20 PM

giratina for sure, to have both forms ;)

Trope April 21st, 2010 1:29 PM

Giratina.

I do wonder - if you restart the game, can you redo the ruins event? :x

Hahlin April 21st, 2010 2:22 PM

I got Giratina and Dialga. Always wanted a Dialga, but a lvl 1 Giratina is adorable in my book ^_^
