I've been looking around Facebook for quite some time and couldn't find any of these "various UK GAME stores pages" announcing the distribution...

It's always annoying when a website doesn't give any source to support its news.

I wonder why they are re releasing these 3 Pokemon. In HG/SS You can get these shiny level 1 and then restart to get the other 2 once you transfer them to another version. I think you could in Platinum also. Unless they will have the DW ability or something xD.:)

Hmm, is anyone attending? I remember we didn't get the Meowth from Italy.

[whitetext]the italians are known for being quite leechy[/whitetext]

You can see text written in white on the mobile version of the forum >:/

Unfortunately some of the people who went to the PokémonDay didn't get Meowth because "hey, it's a stupid Meowth!" and the ones who downloaded it didn't share the .pgf, probably because they didn't know what a .pgf is.

Sorry from an Italian

I actually didn't catch that.

I'm of Italian heritage... >:/

Anyway, there's still the possibility that one will be contributed later. I think the last Pokemon Day Italian event was contributed a few days/weeks afterwards.

It may also be distributed at German and Swiss events, still, though.

THIS is why it's important for people to bring all languages, because with ONE event, we can have them all covered. SO please bring what you can to this event if you plan on attending. :)

Edit:

Serebii gave me links to the pages where he found this.

You can see it very well with the HeartGold theme as well. :P

Even though we don't have the .pgf file for that Meowth yet, it is still possible someone will come up and contribute it at some point.

Just look at Searcher Piplup, we got the .pgf for it over a year after the event was actually distributed.

Would still be nice if someone who goes would post here. :)

That French link doesn't actually go to an article, and I can't seem to find it on the site. Has anyone seen it?

Apparently the link is broken, because it is the same link that the main page lists. However I did archive the page.

It doesn't look like the article is on the french website anymore either, for some reason.

I have heard rumors that these events are being released in the U.S. as well. Is this true? Thanks xD. I thought it was only in the U.K.:)

It's in the US too, in Gamestops.

(And I'm a little hyped because it's the first time I'll be able to receive a non-Wifi event, as a relatively new Gamestop isn't too far from me.)

Copypaste from the contribution thread. Posting here for visibility.

I've made some barebones entries for the summer events in the English, German, French, Italian, and Spanish Gallery pages. I'll fill in the details as they get confirmed.

Due to the high number of Events this summer, I've made a spreadsheet to help me keep track of them and which have been contributed (especially since the Japanese ones will have multiple WCs for single pokemon, etc). I've decided to make the NA/EU/AUS distribution section of that spreadsheet into a chart to track contributions here (as I cannot attend those personally, obviously). I'll post it here as well as in the first post of this thread.

At this point, I'm only assuming that Dialga/Palkia/Giratina will be distributed in all five languages at all distribution sites (although it's a safe bet), but we would very much like confirmation! So please be prepared, no matter which event you plan to attend!

Also just assuming that Meowth was distributed in the five languages at Pokemon Day in Italy (no confirmation yet). It is still unknown if this Meowth will be distributed at German or Swiss Pokemon Day events this year, but be ready!

PLEASE NOTE:

Those who contribute any of these events will receive the Event Contributor Badge for their forum profile sinnoh3.png (Displayed under username and group) as well as the option to change their username to this color. (If you have contributed an event in the past but did not receive this, please contact me)
