The [[Mobile System GB]] held special events in 2001, which allowed {{player}}s to obtain the [[GS Ball]] from a [[Pokémon Center lady]] in the [[Pokémon Communication Center]] in [[Goldenrod City]]. The GS Ball may then be taken to [[Kurt]] in [[Azalea Town]] for him to investigate. After a day passes, taking the GS Ball to the Ilex Forest shrine summons a [[level]] 30 Celebi. The player then has the opportunity to capture the {{2t|Psychic|Grass}} Pokémon. | ||
In the original Western releases of Pokémon Crystal, there is no way of obtaining the GS Ball, as no event equivalent to the one present in the Japanese version was ever offered to players of the Western versions of the game. Without the GS Ball, the Celebi event cannot be triggered. However, it is possible to obtain the item by hacking or exploiting [[glitch]]es within the game. Some game-enhancing devices, however, such as the [[GameShark]], can be used to generate the GS Ball right in the player's [[Bag]] in all versions of the game. | In the original Western releases of Pokémon Crystal, there is no way of obtaining the GS Ball, as no event equivalent to the one present in the Japanese version was ever offered to players of the Western versions of the game.

In ''A Farfetch'd Tale'', {{TRT}} got lost and hungry in the [[Ilex Forest]]. {{MTR}} smelled food nearby and they found the small Ilex Forest shrine where two dumplings were left there as offerings. [[Jessie]] snatched one, Meowth the other, leaving [[James]] empty-handed. They then spotted a rare {{p|Farfetch'd}} and quickly left to pursue it. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrived at the shrine with {{OBP|Sylvester|EP145}}, who said it was a shrine to the spirit that watches over the forest. In order to find the lost Farfetch'd, they all ran in different directions, and agreed to meet back at the shrine in an hour. | In ''A Farfetch'd Tale'', {{TRT}} got lost and hungry in the [[Ilex Forest]]. {{MTR}} smelled food nearby and they found the small Ilex Forest shrine where two dumplings were left there as offerings.

Although the shrine seen in ''Celebi: The Voice of the Forest'' wasn't the same Ilex Forest shrine, it does contain the same qualities. It is found in the deepest part of the forest, and many people say that the shrine is linked to the Mythical Pokémon, Celebi, who supposedly lives inside the forest shrine, as the forest guardian. The shrine was first seen when [[Sam]] ran into it before {{OBP|Celebi|M04}} transported him into the future, and it reappeared as Sam arrived into the future. | Although the shrine seen in ''Celebi: The Voice of the Forest'' wasn't the same Ilex Forest shrine, it does contain the same qualities.

In ''Celebi and Joy!'', [[Ritchie]] and [[Sparky]] saved a young [[Nurse Joy]] hanging from a cliff with some help from her {{p|Ponyta}}. Joy explained that she saw some flowers that she wanted to pick for Celebi when she fell. She then explained the legends that say that a Celebi lives in this forest, and she believed it was true. To prove it, she showed them a shrine that was put up in the forest a long time ago. Later that night, during a thunderstorm, [[Nick's father]] was informed that Joy ran into the forest. As Ritchie and {{OBP|Nick|HS13}} headed out to look for Joy, they found her unconscious near the shrine. As a fire raged near them, a Celebi appeared and protected them from the danger. | In ''Celebi and Joy!'', [[Ritchie]] and [[Sparky]] saved a young [[Nurse Joy]] hanging from a cliff with some help from her {{p|Ponyta}}.

The shrine first appeared in ''[[PS103|You Ain't Nothin' but a Houndour]]'', where {{adv|Gold}} hid behind it to take cover from a {{p|Farfetch'd}} that was attacking him. In ''[[PS104|The Ariados up There]]'', the shrine began to glow, causing the [[Masked Man]] to abandon his chase for Gold in order to reach the glow, but it disappeared before he could reach it. | The shrine first appeared in ''[[PS103|You Ain't Nothin' but a Houndour]]'', where {{adv|Gold}} hid behind it to take cover from a {{p|Farfetch'd}} that was attacking him.

The [[Johto]] [[Pokédex holder]]s pursued Pryce into the time stream on the backs of the {{adv|Legendary beasts}}, with Gold succeeding in destroying the GS Ball with [[Pibu]]'s "{{m|Volt Tackle|Super Rising Thunder}}", setting Celebi free. Pryce was then left floating in the crack of time while the Pokédex holders escaped. | ||

The shrine reappeared in a flashback in ''[[PS458|All About Arceus VII]]'', where Pryce told how Celebi had freed him from the crack of time to stop a disaster he had foreseen while floating in the time stream. {{adv|Giovanni}}, who had also arrived at the shrine to seek Celebi's help in curing his long-time illness, attacked Pryce on sight, due to him being responsible for the kidnapping of his son {{adv|Silver}} years earlier, but [[Lance]] arrived just in time to prevent the situation from escalating. | The shrine reappeared in a flashback in ''[[PS458|All About Arceus VII]]'', where Pryce told how Celebi had freed him from the crack of time to stop a disaster threatening the Johto and [[Sinnoh]] [[region]]s that he had foreseen while floating in the time stream. {{adv|Giovanni}}, who had also arrived at the shrine to seek Celebi's help in curing his long-time illness, attacked Pryce on sight, due to him being responsible for the kidnapping of his son {{adv|Silver}} years earlier, but [[Lance]], who had helped to organize Pryce's return, arrived just in time to prevent the situation from escalating. | ||
