No, unfortunately it won't work. The in-game Spiky Eared Pichu event only works once, regardless of if you may have multiple PC-Pichus in your version. However, because the Spiky Eared Pichu cannot evolve nor be traded, if you ever decide to start a new game file, then you may trade over your Pika-Colored Pichus into another game and repeat the event once more after you bring back your PC Pichu into HeartGold or SoulSilver.

Got some questions...
Are the Weekday Girls still in the game? (Monday, Tuesday, etc) that appeared on their day in certain areas? What do they give you?
When can you first use your PokeWalker? Are there certain tiers you have to complete after that? (3 courses for each badge for example) and how do you use the Walker? (PokeCenter? Load Up Screen?)
Thanks in advance

Well I'm completely unsure if the Rotom formes can be used on Wi-Fi battles. Has anyone actually tried to use them while battling against a Plat/HG/SS owner?

Does anyone know if Pineco are only found in "special" trees like in GS? I had the hardest time finding a tree with Pineco in Ilex Forest. The special trees contained different Pokemon, for example, in Ilex Forest, trees with Kakuna were more common than trees with Pineco (those trees had NO Kakuna). Thanks in advance! ^_^

Not quite actually - or leastways from what Serebii has said, in that a different Arceus will activate it a 2nd time. (But not a third, unless another Arceus event comes along?)
Word is - Wifi it reverts back, but not for local wireless (same for Shaymin and Giratina).
According to serebii.net's dex, it's in nearly every route with headbutt trees if not all... Probably more common in some routes than others though. BTW, specific-tree Pokemon are listed here: https://www.serebii.net/heartgoldsoulsilver/headbutt.shtml

Bar Mew, all Kanto Pokemon are obtainable in HGSS so it's not really much point, although there's nothing wrong with extra items and Pokemon I suppose. =P (Mind you as well although in HGSS you can get the Kanto starters it's only a choice out of three of them, so the other two you need to migrate/trade for. Besides those however that's it, bar a version exclusive or few e.g. Vulpix/Growlithe, and Mankey/Meowth line iirc).

Does anyone know if the new Johto pokedex will be the same as the original G/S/ games or if they will add the new pokemon introduced in D/P/Pt to it like Rhyperior, Yanmega, or Mamoswine. I dont know if this is obvious I just want to make sure I can get some of the new evolutions.

The pre-elite four dex is the same as gsc, bar that it does include a 'few' Pokemon like Tangrowth and Mamoswine in there. Note though that any Pokemon can be evolved/traded on there that isn't even a Johto/Kanto Pokemon, it just won't show up in the dex until you get the National one.

This is probably the wrong place to ask this, but if I pr-ordered HG, will I get it the day it comes out?
Actually, it's the best place to ask it. ;)
If you pre-order HeartGold, then yes you should get it the day of its release. If you pre-order it online for it to be shipped to you, it should arrive on that day. If you purchase it from a store, such as GameStop, then you will need to go on the day of HeartGold and SoulSilver's release and pick it up.
... But yes, you will receive it on the day it comes out.

I have another question. (Nervously scratches the back of his head)
See, I got a Pikachu-Coloured Pichu, and I got a Larvitar Egg, both on Platinum. Here's my problem. My little brother broke my spare DS in half. Cue enormous sad face.
But seriously, I was planning to use that to trade my Platinum Pokemon to my upcoming Soul Silver. Because: A) I wanna unlock that Pokemanz event. B) I don't feel like waiting until I get to the Safari Zone to get me a Larvitar.
I intially planned to ask one of the users here at PC if they could just go catch two dud Pokemon (CoughBidoofCough), trade with me, and then trade those Pokemon to me on my SS.
This is my question: It's been mentioned you can trade as soon as you get your Pokedex, but can you trade long-distance WiFi?
Rambling post, I know, but I would be very grateful if someone could help me out here.

Murkrow is actually an uncommon Pokémon in the Safari Zone. It is also found in Routes 7 and 16, but is still classified as Uncommon according to Serebii's rarity factor here (https://serebii.net/pokedex-dp/198.shtml). However, in the PokéWalker you can find a Murkrow in the Suburban Area with 1000+ steps. It's said to be common here than it is in the game and found at level 11.
