    Nintendo Zone Jirachi and Shokotan Pichu

    Hey guys,
    Do any of you think that Nintendo Zone Jirachi and the Shokotan Pichu will be released like in an English Region such as USA, Australia or something like that? Hopefully Australia (That's where I live), also because Australia has only had 3 events from its whole Pokemon History:
    1. JBHF Manaphy
    2. ALAMOS Darkrai
    3. Secret/Rotom Key

    Australia, no doubt is one of the countries with the lowest events released, that's just so harsh.

    And if the Shokotan Pichu will be released in an English region, what do you think its OT will be?

    2nd EDIT: Will the Nintendo Zone Jirachi PGT still be legit if I got it from Project Pokemon, uploaded it on the Pokesav then pressed edit on the Jirachi and clicked on Original Name so that the Jirachi that I received's name will be in English. Because after all, the OT is english as well.

    Seeing that they unlock something in a game (HGSS) it's bound to sooner or later be released worldwide anyways xD

    You think you have it bad lol? i live in New Zealand and we have had NO events AT ALL! you have already had 3 more events than us =P. Its like we are non-existant. This whole "event unlock" thing is fine and all, But in my opinion they really need to make the events global, Not just for Japan, USA and the UK. Its like saying "ok in this new game people in Japan, USA and the UK have full access to the game and everyone else in the world doesn't, because either: 1. We are too lazy to host events in other places 2. We don't care because we get more MONEY from the other 3 places anyway. Do you agree? Oh and just so you know, the jirachi is avalible to anyone anywhere aslong as you own a japanese game.

    Nintendo has HQ offices in:
    Japan
    USA
    Canada
    Germany
    Australia
    China
    S Korea
    Panama
    Brazil
    Taiwan
    South Africa

    not New Zealand

    So.... there is no company to organize the events in New Zealand. That's why.

    Oh well. Singapore (Where I live) also holds no events, the only event I've actually gotten legitly so far is the Secret Key event since Singapore imports the Pokemon stuff from the US~

    I thought Canada had lowest. The only event I can recall is Secret/Rotom Key.
    Nintendo of Canada didn't even give the players an EVENT POKEMON.

    I think it is because Singapore doesn't have a HQ at the country.
    But at least you can get event WiFi events from the US.

    Oh, and about the question. As WindSlayer had noted before, it is going to be released at the countries where HQ of Nintendo exists due to Jirachi's and Pichu's role in HG/SS games. Most likely OT in US will be TRU - Toys R Us again because they gave away movie event pokemons Manaphy(from Temple of the Sea), Regigigas(from Shaymin Movie) and Shaymin(from Shaymin Movie).

    Re: Nintendo Zone Jirachi and Shokotan Pichu

    To even further back you up, I am pretty sure they will release those Pokemon for the English versions due to their involvement in activating in-game events.

    The Eigakan Shaymin was released at TRU and this activates the Gracidea Flower, and the Teni Mura Regigigas was released at TRU at that activates the three Regis in Platinum.

    So, I'm willing to bet that Yozora Jirachi, Shokotan Pichu and Eigakan Arceus will be released in some form stateside early next year, or late this year (most likely a month or a couple before the release of HGSS in the states, whenever that will be).

    Canada wasn't the lowest; some countries had no events at all.

    I don't really get how come the USA has actually released more Pokemon Events than Japan! Well if you're only thinking about My Pokemon Ranch and DPP Japan has released more but if you think of All Pokemon Games including FRLG, RSE, etc. The USA has actually released a lot more!
    Um, in case you didn't know, it doesn't matter what part of the world you are in, as long as you have a US game, you can receive the Wi-Fi events. It doesn't matter if you are in the US, in the southern part of Canada xD, or in Japan.

    I hope you aren't basing that statement off of the main site's Event list, as they just haven't hosted Japan's GBA events. Japan, being Pokemon's origin country and one of the only ones where Pokemon is still relevant in the culture, they outweigh our event numbers like crazy.
