Classic: PCNY Shiny Ho-Oh ,

This event was distributed to players at the New York Pokémon Center: Gotta catch 'em all! Station,
and the machine were distribuing various PCNY Pokémon across the period of November 22, 2001 to March 13, 2003.

The schedule of Pokemon changes weekly, and players were restricted to collecting one Pokemon per week per visit,
and the restriction was enforced by the distribution machine; it checks for data stored in the Gen 2 save itself.
It appears that the data stored is the header/title, which is checked against the distribution data.

This Ho-Oh has a 0.5% chance of occurring, and was always distributed as shiny.
A more comprehensive schedule list can be seen here.

The dates for distribution was:
November 15 to 21, 2002
December 6 to 12, 2002

DUE TO HAVING AN EVENT LOCATION,
THIS POKEMON WILL NOT BE LEGAL WITH ANY VIRTUAL CONSOLE RELEASE
(AND BY EXTENSION, CANNOT BE TRANSFERRED TO GEN 7 AND ONWARDS).
