[[Event Pokémon]] have been released in Australia sporadically. A majority of the events since 1999 were organized by {{wp|Nintendo Australia}} including the Poké Tour in 1999 where Mew was distributed and the Celebi Tour in 2001 which happened to be the last event to distribute any event Pokémon in Australia until 2007. From 2002-2006, Australians did not receive any event Pokémon, including Pokémon from the Generation III era, meaning players who had {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, or {{game|Emerald}} were not able to obtain all the Pokémon in these games. | [[Event Pokémon]] have been released in Australia sporadically.

Since [[Generation IV]], the introduction of Wi-Fi events has allowed Australian players access to many previously unavailable event Pokémon. However, despite Australia being one of the major countries involved with Pokémon, Australians did not get the chance to obtain certain event Pokémon including the event {{p|Regigigas}} that would allow players to obtain {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}} in {{game|Platinum}} for those who don't own any of the [[Game Boy Advance]] Pokémon games, and the event {{p|Celebi}} that would allow players to battle [[Giovanni]] and obtain {{p|Zorua}} in {{game|Black and White|s}}. | Since [[Generation IV]], the introduction of Wi-Fi events has allowed Australian players access to many previously unavailable event Pokémon.
