:biggrin:Who Likes Event Pokemon?:biggrin:

We all do, of course!

The purpose of this thread is to provide information too members and visitors here on the Pokegym of Pokemon that become available for download to your Pokemon games.

The most common term referred to these Pokemon are known as "Event Pokemon", and usually these Pokemon have something special about them in that they are not your average Pokemon captured in the games.

There are many ways a Pokemon is released to the public. Here are some of the ways these Pokemon become obtainable and are considered legitimate releases to those who download or trade for these Pokemon:

Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.
In Store Events like at Toy's R Us and Gamestop.
Dreamworld via the internet and your account.
Nintendo Tournament/ Event where Nintendo Distributes them on site.

You may post information about Event Pokemon that are being released in other countries as well.

In Order to provide as much information about a Pokemon becoming or is already available, any member can post the information as long as the information comes from a reliable source or can be confirmed by another member to support the information. Post your findings and info, and someone will confirm by simply checking the site/link. The information will then be re-posted on this main headline page. This is a "group effort" thread, so do not be shy!

DO NOT ASK FOR TRADES FROM OTHERS ABOUT GETTING THESE POKEMON! We have a trade thread for that!
This thread is open for discussion concerning Event Pokemon. If anyone has a question, ask away! If any of the information changes, please notify this thread with a posting, and correct or update the changes needed to be made. Sometimes things change or get cancelled and the what not by the distributor/vender for any reason. We just need to provide the most accurate information is all.

This thread is kept current to the best of abilities, so you will not find any information about older event Pokemon releases from one (1) year ago. I will delete information for event Pokemon that have expired/no longer available from the beginning and the end of each year (or as long as this thread is allowed) each January, with January 2013 being the first dates for deletion. Unless an Event Pokemon has no "expiration date"- it will not be deleted.

If you find information about an up-coming event you would like to share, post it with in this thread. The information you provide will then be posted here in the main headline for easy access. PLEASE include links of the info as well!

I would like too thank everyone in advance for any contribution made too this thread, and for providing as much correct information available when you contribute.:smile:

As far as the Banette release, I can not at this time find anymore info about it. Anyone who can find more information on this, please post! I will keep on this and the source I provided is direct from the Global Link Dreamworld site from my account.
Birthday Togakiss is mentioned on Serebii- and I suppose it will activet only on the month of your birthday month when you log on.

This is all I have at the moment, if there are any other Event Pokies I missed/need to post, let me know!
 
^ Can Anyone say timed/jolly ev'd in speed and spec.att.?
Thanks for getting this in here, as the 'gym has been down and this is the first time today I have been on.
Gonna add the move info to update..........
 
Electro Ball is intriguing, but I mean it already got T-Bolt and Thunder anyways...still given Mewtwo's speed, could come out stronger than the 2 against the right Pokemon (since most legendaries hover at what, Base 85 or 90?).

Got the event Togekiss in Japanese. :/ Still more than 6 months off the English one, so I can't help much there.
 
The password for the DW Banette has been added. Log in to your DW account, go to "promotions" in the lower right side of the screen, select Banette, enter in the password- complete!
 
For those of you who own a French cartridge, a Mamoswine is going to be available on the Global Link system.
so far the info on this is:
Level 34
ability: thick fat
password: MAMNintendoOfficiel
The source says it is not sure if this will be available in all regions, but until this info is confirmed more solidly- this is a heads up. source:http://www.serebii.net/index2.shtml
 
Japan has a Global Link Pokemon event for a Blissy with it's hidden ability. I will gather more info on this and post accordingly.

The giveaway runs from November 19th 2011 to December 25th 2011


i hope this answers the question from serebii.net
 
^thanx! info added, will be edited when more info is available such as move set, ect...
 
Japan has another global link Pokemon give-away, it is Alteria. Set to happen November 17th. I will gather more info on this and add it too the list.

---------- Post added 10/27/2011 at 05:50 PM ----------

Info on the Mamoswine slipped past my radar- I will try to obtain all the codes/passwords for you all to obtain the mamoswine in the Global Link. Any help on this is appreciated.
 
It might or might not be worth mentioning that there was an event Shiny Eevee given out at AMA(Anime Mid-Atlantic) this year during the Pokemon game session. (It was rather brief, but they gave us unlimited downloads of it until it was over). There was a small tournament and I think they also had a download of a couple of the shining Legendary dogs as well. Not sure if they do this at all anime/gaming cons, but if they do something for Nekocon next week, I'll make sure to post it!
 
^Nice info- I did not even hear a thing about it- Do you know if it is the shiny Eevee given out for the VGC 2009? And the Shiny dogs, are they the same one's already released? Sorry for so many questions- I have not heard of AMA either.
Any more info on these would be helpful and worth a mention. And if they do have a Pokie available at Nekocon ( never heard of it either..)but yes, info on Pokies released at any event is good to know about for future things for like tournaments- if anything is "special" like a move the Pokie knows it normally can not/could not have so it is legal for battles. Thanx for this info, any more on this would be helpfull.

On a side note- I got to dig around and post some event Pokies like the shiny Dogs, so, this is an ongoing thread with updates as I get the info.
