Second Chance for the Shiny Pichu Event
March 14, 2010 | Leave a Comment

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
If you have received mystery gifts before then you are ready to go. Just click on MYSTERY GIFT on the opening screen, then RECEIVE GIFT, then GET VIA NINTENDO WFC and it will load the Wonder Card on to your game.
If you have yet to receive a mystery gift, go to the 3rd floor in Jubilife TV. Talk to the man next to a lady and type in “everyone happy” as a response to his first question and type in “wi-fi connection” to the next question. Save your game and when you restart it the MYSTERY GIFT option box will appear below NEW GAME on the opening screen.
- As per usual you will need to have:
- Room for the wonder card (can’t have more than three)
- A Diamond, Pearl or Platinum and a DS
- Have obtained the Pokedex
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.
Stay tuned as the Yellow Forest Event for the Pokéwalker has already been announced for April 1, 2010.
