Since {{g|Red and Green | Since {{g|Red and Green}}, there have been Pokémon that were made unobtainable via normal gameplay in the [[core series]] games, making these species of Pokémon only legitimately obtainable from Nintendo's promotional event distributions. Some event-exclusive Pokémon have also been made available through cross promotions with [[spin-off Pokémon games]]. Most of the event-exclusive Pokémon are [[Mythical Pokémon]] (and vice versa). | ||
