If you missed last month’s giveaway of the Shiny Pichu at Gamestop you get one more chance. The Shiny Pichu will trigger an event when traded to HeartGold and SoulSilver that will allow you to befriend a Spiky-Eared Pichu in Ilex Forest at the Celebi Shrine. The Shiny Pichu is darker colored than a normal one, similar to a Pikachu. These are available as a Mystery Gift download on the Nintendo Wi-Fi until March 25, 2010 so that Europe and Australia can get a chance to get them before HeartGold and SoulSilver are released there, but North American games can download them also. These Pichus will be at level 30 and will be holding an Everstone that will keep them from evolving. They will come with a Classic Ribbon and know the following moves:
Charge
Volt Tackle
Endure
Endeavor

The Spiky-Eared Pichu will also be at level 30 and will be holding a Zap Plate and know these moves:
Volt Tackle
Helping Hand
Swagger
Pain Split

Remember, you can only get one shiny Pichu per game cartridge and if you picked up one from Gamestop last month you won’t be able to download this one. You can, however, trade them to another game and restart your game thus allowing you to get as many Pichus as you can want if you are willing to grind through the intro part of the game over and over again.
