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.

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.

You don't have to worry because it comes with an everstone. I got the Pichu back on the second of this month on my way home from college.

The question now is who will be getting the GAMESTP Jirachi. it will be out in 2-3 weeks

I'm going back before the pichu event ends and getting about 6-9 more.

Just picked it up today. Hour in a half drive, but I was with two friends who got it also and we found some other stuff to do. We also pre-ordered HG/SS.

I went to Gamestop today, and got my Pikachu-Colored Pichu. I just wanted to get it because I want the Spiky-Eared Pichu in HeartGold and SoulSilver (which I preordered today as well). A kool thing that the Gamestop guy told me that there's also a Jirachi Event comin' up. I think he said it starts on February 27th. BTW, I'm gonna get that Jirachi too.

Just go to any gamestop and tell whoever's at the counter that you want the pikachu colored pichu. They'll tell you how to do it. ;D

I got mine two days ago. I hate the people at my local GameStop. They insisted that I preorder HGSS twice before they'd let me leave. Their reasoning behind this is so that I get two PokeWalkers (totally worth it).

I got mine on the 31st. Just pulled up next to the Gamestop and did it from in my car. Plan on doing the same with the next one that comes out later this month.


Now if only HG/SS would just come out sooner

I went to Gamestop this weekend and got THREE of them, since I have Diamond, Pearl AND Platinum, and I also pre-ordered both HG and SS! So I'm all set with a Pichu for both games, plus an extra! ^_^
