Yeah was good fun at the time. This is the magazine it was from and on page 70 there is a very similar event to the one I attended http://read.ukprintarchive.com/EMAP/Nintendo Offical Magazine/Nintendo Official Magazine 095 (TGMG+OldGameMags).pdf/

If i try to do it and the exception still happen, we better report to @Kaphotics. It didn't happen Earlier. Edit: It's A No-Go. Better Report Him. Edit 2: Cannot Teach Gen I Moves to Gen II Pokémon From Gen I. It Flags As Illegal. Here's The Snapshot

No it is not the Finland one but an event in either Norwich or Ipswich which was held by the Nintendo official magazine back in around 2000. You could battle other kids and their Pokémon and if you won like 5 or 10 games you could battle Tim who was the magazine's number 2. If you beat him and his articuno you could then fight the editor and his Mewtwo to get your pic in the magazine. Everyone who won the games could have their cart hooked up to a machine to get a Mew imported. I'm gonna try and find it this weekend lol, hopefully the battery hadn't died. Any monetary value associated with this?

Hmm it's normally related to using some physical dongle to back up the saves of the retail carts (provided you already don't have such a dongle. I'm not sure if Gameshark/Action Replay back in gen 1/2 provided such a service, but I know Gen 3 and 4 copies did) Because there is always a little preservationist in all of us. It's true: we could just hack one in or make one, but somehow the notion of preserving something that once existed lights the bulb in our head. Normally we'll preserve images of the event (distribution pamphlets, certificates, photographs showing the distribution etc) alongside the data. I guess the next important thing I should ask if it's the same FINLAND distribution as we've obtained, or is it some other OT?

Heyo! I'm an artist/hacker in the making. Glad to be here! The site looks spiffy. It's been a while since I was part of a forum... lol
