Pokemon Crystal Version (with PCNY event Pokemon)

[Gold Ursaring]

I've attached a save containing my collection of Pokemon Center New York Pokemon, among them Celebi and multiple egg events. The battery on my Crystal Version has lasted long enough for me to be able to do this.

I had no issues with opening this file with Visual Boy Advance after downloading the save and the game itself. It should work fine.

Feel free to distribute these files as you see fit, so long as the Pokemon aren't edited, any people interested in research may feel free to contact me for further information. I can try to do my best in remembering what I do remember.

Celebi (Enough unique Celebi to make a team or two filled with them)

*Nintendo actually selected Splash as a distribution move on several occasions, as if getting a Sunkern wasn't bad enough.

If anyone still has a legit Mew, it would be great to distribute, because then we could truly catch all 251 Pokemon forever.

Thank you GU for posting this!
I believe the battery in my silver game went bye-bye, so my Mew is history.

My Silver has, amazingly, lasted 10 years and still has one of the "official" Mews. Unfortunately I don't have the equipment to make a save dump, unless someone can point me in the direction of some inexpensive save dumpers.

Here is a .sav of that save state.
I had trouble loading the save state myself, so this should help a lot of people.

[Gold Ursaring]

And I posted the other because I problems opening a .sav except on one particular rom. Hopefully, with Pingouin7's contribution, everyone interested in it, gets things working.

[ShinySephiroth]

Thank you very much, GU. I was too unaware of life when these happened when I was in Elementary school. Ever since I learned about events I've kicked myself for not taking advantages of all the opportunities I had to go to these things. So, once again, thanks. ^_^

[Pingouin7]

This wasn't an April's fools, right?

[ShinySephiroth]

O_O' Didn't think of that...

[Gold Ursaring]

Nope, not an April Fools... <_<

I had been in discussions about doing this before, but couldn't get anyone with the right equipment, so I put out an order from HK and then after a long road, it got in April 1, so I decided against delaying.

Besides it's bad luck to fool people after 12!

But ShinySephiroth, if my calculations are right, I'm a year younger then you, but I was in High School when these happened, so your claim that you were in Elementary School is problematic.

May I ask what the OT, ID and level of this Mew is?
If you can't dump the save file off your Silver version, the best we could do is hack a Red/Blue save file to have the same OT and ID as the event Mew and catch a wild Mew of the same level.

GU-
Well, the only thing I remember is starting to play R/B in the sixth grade/seventh grade. I remember going to the Pokemon League for the TCG and there being random distributions of Pokemon on occasions, though which Pokemon I don't remember. I guess I associate Middle School with Elementary school too much ^_^. It was Jr. High I remember there being a Mew distribution. I stopped playing Pokemon during eighth grade and started playing FR my Senior year.

Just managed to get this working, I'd given up with the sgm file because I just couldn't work out how to use it, but the sav worked (thanks Pingouin7). This is a really sweet upload GU! It just makes me more confused how PCNYa/b/c/d OTs were set though, does anyone know? I guess it may be different on GBC compared to GBA, I noticed that some Celebi IDs went past 01000 so it probably is.

[Pingouin7]

I noticed that some Celebi IDs went past 01000 so it probably is.

From what I've read on Gold Ursaring's event guide on Pokemonsecure, the PCNY event Pokémon usually had an ID number lower than 01000.
That doesn't mean the maximum is 01000.

[Gold Ursaring]

The store had 4 distribution machines (PCNYa, PCNYb, PCNYc & PCNYd). Whichever you put it in, was what the OT was. Then it added one, so depending how early/late I went in the week (Friday was usually the reset day, I think), determined the ID.

In the GBA days events happened so rarely, that there wasn't really a community to it, but in the GBC days, you had a good amount of people going, playing and getting what they could. When the company is more active, the community is better and more supportive!
