Club Nintendo Mexico Giveaways

Page announcing the second running of the event

In 2002, Club Nintendo, the official Nintendo magazine of Mexico, gave away Mew and Celebi to its readers. To receive the Pokémon, players had to go to the offices of the magazine on weekdays from 12:00 to 3:00 pm, bring any model of Game Boy, a Generation I or II game, and an issue of the magazine of the corresponding month.

Writers Alejandro "Panteón" Ríos and Juan Carlos "Master" García were in charge of the distribution. Panteón used a Game Boy Advance and a cartridge of Pokémon Crystal while Master used a Game Boy Pocket and a cartridge of Pokémon Gold or Pokémon Silver to trade players the Mythical Pokémon. After the trades were complete, the magazine issue would be signed so it could not be used for another trade. However, multiple copies for multiple trades was allowed.

The promotion initially ran from August 1 to October 31, 2002. It was run again from December 2 to December 31 due to popular demand.

Additionally, at these locations, players could participate in a challenge to become a Nintendo Official Celebi Distributor. The first 64 players to complete a challenge against the computer in Pokémon Stadium 2 received a distribution cartridge (Pokémon Gold or Silver). Each distribution cartridge contained 20 Celebi with the original Trainer CTOUR. Successful players (or their parents if under 16) had to sign an agreement, and were given a distribution cartridge, which they would be entered into a drawing to receive a prize if they returned it by a specific date. The drawing was conducted two weeks after the return date. The prize in at least two cases in Belgium was a copy of Pokémon Crystal one day before launch.[1][2] Visitors could also complete their Pokémon Flippo collection.

The first prize of the Pokémon Stadium 2 championships was a Game Boy Advance with Super Mario Advance, F-Zero Maximum Velocity, kurukuru kururin and Mario Kart Super Circuit, a Game Boy Advance t-shirt and pet, and free software published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Advance for a year. The second prize was a Game Boy Advance with Super Mario Advance and Mario Kart Super Circuit, and a Game Boy Advance t-shirt and pet. The third prize was a Nintendo 64 Mario Pak with Pokémon Stadium 2. And the fourth prize was a Game Boy Color with Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons.
