I got a Mew in December, 1999 from a special promotion; it's what got me into Pokémon in the first place... I think it happened on December 15 of that year, but I can't remember for sure. TTEchidna 06:51, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
PBR Pokemon
Should the Pokémon you get in Mystery Gifts from PBR, (Pikachu, Elictivire, and Magmortar) be included in this article? I was thinking they may count as Event Pokémon as well. Superbreeder 21:24, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
Are they still in "unfair mode"?
Just to ask, I'd like to know if Nintendo still offers these event Pokémon only when you physically move your butt into a certain event at some city. If, then I'm disappointed since as I live in Finland we've had as much as ONE Nintendo event so far, and that was in Helsinki, which is about 200km (124 miles) from where I reside. So, do they now offer them via Wi-Fi as well or is it still almost-only-Japan&America stuff? UltimateSephiroth (user · talk · contrib) 22:58, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
- They've offered one Wi-Fi event, but it was for Japan only, and it was for a key item that unlocked the secrets of one Pokémon species. It's possible they could distribute event Pokémon over Wi-Fi in the future. --Shiningpikablu252 23:01, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
- It was Worldwide but only Platinum.tc26 03:07, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
- I'm going to assume that since Wi-fi is over the Internet, you can receive it from anywhere, but only in a Japanese game.--Loveはドコ? (talk • contribs) 04:44, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
- If it's still going to be only for Japanese, it's really sad. Well, I probably have to just get over the fact that I'll never get these Event Pokémon. It'd be cool, though, if I got one in a trade (one without that Classic Ribbon of course) :P UltimateSephiroth (user · talk · contrib) 21:11, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Cherish Balls
Not all event Pokémon come in Cherish Balls. My MYSTRY Mew is in a Pokéball. So shouldn't it say "most come in Cherish Balls some come in Pokéballs"? See here. Sivart345 20:36, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
Also there are other event Pokémon that come in Pokéballs. Sivart345 20:37, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
- If you read it correctly, it says in Gen IV all of them do. --PsychicRider☮ 20:39, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
- Well then why is this Manaphy in a Pokéball? It's Gen IV...
Sorry I forgot my MYSTRY Mew is Gen III, my bad.Sivart345 20:52, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Celebi
Celebi was available in Australia as an event pokémon, given out in 2001 via direct trade. I know because I got one.Da Rammo 06:37, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
A complete listing?
At the bottom of the page we list types of things that have been given out at events, but would it be possible to list the actual items given out at events on one page? (ie event berries, event items, event pokemon, event unlocked events such as the regis in platinum?) Enigmaberry 13:58, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
- Click on the links. They can't all fit in one page, it's too big. Also, it's only Regigigas, not all 3 Regis. *tc26* 14:33, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
- That's not what I mean. I'm saying list all the event items, not the actual events (ie: Pokemon: Darkrai, Shaymin, etc. not where/when they were given out) Enigmaberry 19:29, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
New Templates.
The new templates are great, but they don't link to the event Pokémon very well... Sivart345 23:43, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
- Also 'tweaking' can be used to battle Shaymin (at Flower Paradise) in D/P. These templates don't give enough info and make event Pokémon seem rarer than they actually are. Sivart345 23:55, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
- What do you mean by link? *tc26* 07:26, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
- He means links to the ToysRUs Pikadoodle or whatever. Seriously though, why doesn't this page list all event pokies, not just the legendaries? — THE TROM — 10:29, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
They were in one page before but it got too many. *tc26* 10:53, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
- You were previously able to click links to go to the event they were given away at. We should put numbers after the 'other giveaways' like this 1/2/3 or 1,2,3,4 to link to the actual giveaway of those event Pokémon; players want to know about the previous events. Something like this: Other giveaways (1/2) . Sivart345 16:57, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
