Special Machines (Japanese: '''特製マシン''') were used to distribute events in [[Generation I]] starting with the {{DL|List of Japanese event Pokémon distributions (Generation I)|Nintendo Space World '97 Mew}}. They were mainly used to distribute Mew but also other events like {{DL|Pikachu variants|Surfing Pikachu}}. An updated version of the special machine was used starting with the {{DL|List of Japanese event Pokémon distributions (Generation II)|Nintendo Space World 2000 Celebi}} for all {{p|Celebi}} events during [[Generation II]]. Pokémon game cartridges containing event Pokémon downloaded from machines were sometimes used as distribution cartridges, the event Pokémon were exchanged via Game Link Cable. | Special Machines (Japanese: '''特製マシン''') were used to distribute events in [[Generation I]] starting with the {{DL|List of Japanese event Pokémon distributions (Generation I)|Nintendo Space World '97 Mew}}.

The distribution machine was connected to a developer [[Gamecube]] and stored configurations, logs, and other information on a memory card.
