While no distibution of Surfing Pikachu was made in Colosseum or XD, in Battle Revolution, players could download a Surfing Pikachu onto a {{5v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} game from the shop for free after defeating Pokétopia Master [[Mysterial]] for the first time. It can be downloaded by multiple games, but no two Pikachu can be downloaded by a single card. However, the Pikachu cannot be [[Poké Transfer|transferred]] forward to [[Generation V]] or later without forgetting Surf.
