Here's a maybe weird question.

Does anyone notice how, if you have 2 or more Mystery Gifts on their Generation IV DS games, that the order of pick-up of these gifts changes between games?

What I mean is, let's say I have a Pikachu and Celebi waiting to be picked up on my SoulSilver game and on my Pearl game. Let's say I went to the PokeMart and went to pick up my Mystery Gift. Let's say that I picked up a Pikachu from one game and a Celebi from another.

I did just that only to find that Pikachu was waiting for me in one game while Celebi was waiting for me in the other one.

It isn't the order in which I received my Wonder Cards; I received Pikachu way earlier than my Celebi.

So why did this happen? Why did I get Pikachu in one game and Celebi in my other game?

Actually, this question/topic involves not just Pearl but also SoulSilver and HeartGold which is why I put it here. Only people who have both HG/SS and Diamond/Platinum/Pearl would be able to answer the question?

I think it is in the one you receive first is the one with the last wonder card viewed.

I just tested that and set my Pikachu Wonder Card to be the last one I viewed, but I still get the Celebi instead. This is just boggling me.

Just posting again to say that even though it deals with the two games, they both have their own forum and their own Q&A thread that you could have used. Questions always go in a Q&A thread, they don't get their own.

I've experienced this as well; the order is static and hardly logical. I have 4 games, each full with 3 wondercards. Sometimes I get the most recently obtained event first, sometimes not. If you have deleted used wondercards, they add to the complication. :(

Glad to know I'm not the only one experiencing this strange issue. I've tried everything I could think of to try and change the order including rearranging my viewing order of the Wonder Cards before downloading a new Card... but no deal. Weird!

@ Sydian: Thanks for the reminder; I'll keep that in mind next time.
