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: http://www.pokemon.com/us/special/shiny_pichu

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

Ooh, I definitely will! I actually just went to Gamestop yesterday and pre-ordered HeartGold and SoulSilver, and it came with this piece of paper thing that said how to get it, and I was like "<333333 must have" and so I want it. 8D;;
Oh, and I really really want the notched eared Pichu even more. So cute .. ;u;`

I'm defitinly getting it, I even have it marked on my calender. I will get Pichu on my Platinum & Pearl as well my friend's Platinum & Diamond (he can't do it because he works nights and thus will be asleep).

I'll mostly be getting it for the Spiky Eared Pichu, but also because I love Pichu.

Most definitely. I just hope that everything will go smoothly at the GameStop I'm going to. The guys working there were asking me what a Wondercard was. XD not a good sign, but hopefully everything will be smooth and easy.

As for myself, maybe, maybe not. If the Shiny Pichu can evolve, I'll get. If it can't, I won't. A do-or-die situation as you may call it.

The shiny Pichu can evolve, just not the spiked-eared one that it can 'activate' in HGSS.

I wonder if we get the event over here...

Oh yes. Surely. I don't really care for Pichu, but since it's happening so soon I figure I ought to go for it. I'm mostly doing it for the HGSS Pichu, though. That one is fantastically cooler, despite its limitations.

I'm doing this so it can help my journey in Soul Silver since the spike eared pichu is at level 30. By them most of your them sould be near level 30 if you train them.

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'm getting it. I'm going to pick it up when I preorder, just to avoid that akward moment of walking in and not buying anything.

A friend and I are going down together to get our Shiny Pichu. She was disappointed because she doesn't have a copy of Platinum/Diamond/Pearl, but I have both Platinum and Diamond. ^.^ So I'm lending her my copy of Diamond so we can both get it and thus both get the notched-eared Pichu in HeartGold/SoulSilver.

It's going to be completely akward walking in to download a Pokemon, but I probably will. xD I have the Japanese Version of that Pichu, anyways. . .

Hmm. There's a Gamestop 20 minutes away from here by foot. Then there's a Gamestop at the mall I pass by on the way home from classes. Would I be stupid not to pick one (actually, 2) up? xD

Is any Gamestop in the US going to have it, or is it select stores only? I just have a feeling if it's select stores, my Gamestop will be the one NOT to have it.

Also, when it evolves is it a normal shiny Pikachu/Raichu? And can that evolved form be used to get the special Pichu in HGSS?

Oh, I am so full of questions.

I'll attempt getting it regardless.

Unfourtunatly I'm in canada and there is no gamestop here sadly,
If any other store has one like EB games I will get some though (3 to be exact for all my D/P/Pt and because i want to evolve the other 2 one to pikachu and the other to riachu)
mostly cause of spikey but also cause i wanna collect shinies without AR (i got like 12 or some)

Hopefully I'll be getting the Shiny Pichu on my Pearl when I go to preorder SS with my sister and brother. I'm getting it mainly for the Notched-Ear Pichu, for either myself, or for my sister if my brother is too stubborn to give my sister his Shiny Pichu for the event.

Two reasons why I won't be getting it.

1. Too expensive to travel halfway across the world for a PCP.
2. I already have a Shokotan Pichu so I'll just use that.

I most certainly will. Maybe I'll get into some cool battles at the GameStop.

P.S.
Can you get two if you go to another GameStop or does the game not allow that?

Don't ask me, I don't know! However, I read it more closely and it said for only select Gamestops, go figure. I'll get it, but only to trade it to my SS copy so I can NEP, which I'll trade lol.

Shiny Pokemon stay shiny after evolution. This is true of all shinies.

Hm, if I'd live in America, I might.

I don't think it'd be such a good idea to travel there just for that so...

Answer to the thread's question: No. No I won't.
