  • Thanks OP!

    Still remember when I bought Pokemon Channel on Gamecube just for this dude. Never even used him.

    Get Jirachi to learn Iron Head/Zen Headbutt. Serene Grace doubles the chance the opponent's Pokemon will flinch.

      Heart Stamp should also be considered as a psychic move.

      Heart Stamp (Psychic, physical)
      BP 60
      Accuracy 100%
      30% chance of flinching (60% with serene grace)

      Zen Headbutt (Psychic, Physical)
      BP 80
      Accuracy 90%
      20% chance of flinching (40% with serene grace)

      Parahax Togekiss is just the worst thing to be on the receiving end of…

      • Thanks for the tip, didn't even know that was part of Jirachi's moveset!

        Thanks!

      • Heart stamp is only on a japanese event jirachi.This one specifically

        • I'll still work on Showdown, hopefully.

        • @StrayfireX:

          They generally allow all event Pokemon moves, as long as it exists in the actual game.

    • do we need to redeem in both version of the game?

      or can u trade with yourself if u got both versions?

      e.g. X and Y

      • You can do both. As it is a digital download you can redeem it on every eligible copy of the game you have.

        You can also trade it.

        • -2

          if u trade it, do u lose it?

          or do u keep a copy, and someone traded gets a copy?

        • When you trade it, you lose it. You trade by giving someone a Pokemon of yours in exchange for one of theirs. You lose your original one, they lose their original one.

    Today I actually went to get the one for March, only to discover it expired on the 24th (rather than end of the month :( ). I'll definitely be getting onto this one sooner…

    • I'm in the same boat. Missed out on celebi.
      If anyone wants to trade I have a spare mew code.

      • -3

        i also need celebi,

        if u trade, do u lose your own celebi?

        how do u redeem in pokemon sapphire?

        • You do lose your own, that's why it is a trade. You swap Pokemon.

      • Does mew code have expire date?

        • Mew cards expire May 31.

      • I have the event Celebi if you still have the Mew code.
        I can't start a conversation with you though (your settings are off).
        You'll have to message me.

        • I have a spare Mew card as well, but I couldn't download Celebi before the expiry date as I've been away. Would you or anyone else like to trade Celebi with me? :(

        • @Haleth: I can trade a Celebi for the Mew code

        • Pmed

        • @imc123: Thanks. I have sent you a message.

        • -1

          @imc123:

          can u trade in game for celebi?
          and do u still keep your copy of celebi?

          so u don't need a code if traded in game with someone else?

      This is shit

      why don't they make it expire end of month?

      • It's Nintendo, what's new lol.

    • Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Dammit.

    September should be a mystery gift download.

    • +1

      Yes, you're right.

      Stupid cut & paste. I'll update my post in the forum.

      • Hahaha, and I'll update this one too…

  • So will Victini be both?

    • I actually have a victini from the release of b/w

  • +2

    … Back in my days, I had to get my mum to drive me to Westfields Burwood to plug my gameboy in to get Celebi!! So much easier these days lol

    • +2

      They still make you go instore for some of them. I'd rather have to plug in or connect via instore wifi to get it than use codes…people too often take too many and leave not enough for the rest, then you see them being sold on eBay.

    • There's something nice about having to go in and plug in to get your Pokémon though. I miss things like that.

  • thanks for the heads up op!

    if anyone has a spare mew code laying about, please pm me.

    i can swing you a few random games ive got in my steam inventory for your trouble!

  • Damn, this post just reminded me to get Celebi. Should still be able to grab him for the next few days yeah?

    • Nope :/ soz. Ended on the 24th

      • oh well hopefully someone can dupe him for me

  • Does anyone have a mew code they could PM me?

  • Thanks for the reminder. It's a shame they all aren't Mystery gift downloads :/

  • +1

    I have a spare mew code >< I don't suppose anyone still has a hoopa code they can swap?

    • Hey, i have a spare Hoopa code. If u want PM me and i will send u the Hoopa code for the Mew code

      • Yep! Really happy to trade. I tried to PM you just then but it says you don't accept new conversations? I don't have the code on me atm, at work but if you update your settings or pm me (I just changed my settings) then I will send you the mew code.

  • +1

    Just wondering if theres somewhere to sign up to get email updates when the new pokemon come out?

    • +3

      Just set a reminder in your calendar… There's one every month. It's not too hard to remember. It runs from 1-24 of every month.

  • Oh no, I just missed out :( does anyone have a spare code they could please pm me with?

    • This wasn't a code distribution. It was distributed through the Nintendo Network.
      Only Mew (Feb), Darkrai (May), Areceus (Aug) and Genesect (Nov) are code distributions.

      • Oh damn, thanks for letting me know
