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 Mew has a 0.5% chance of occurring, and was always distributed as shiny.

The event that had Mew ran from November 22, 2002 to November 28, 2002.

In June 2019, a Japanese copy of a Debugging variant of Pokémon Diamond Version was found and subsequently dumped.
In May 2020, the source code for Diamond and Pearl was found, and the game could be compiled, with the debug features intact.

This post relates to the early build compiled from the 2020 leak.

In the compiled version of the early build, it barely has 50 then new Pokémon developed at that time. This build is so early, that the index number for the then new Pokémon were all over the place, radically different from the final build people could purchase at retail stores.
Found in this older version of Diamond and Pearl, were some debug Pokemon (12 in box, 3 in party and a debug Bulbasaur battle routine).
However, probably because it was an early build, and it was very different from the final build, its PKM data structure turned out to be radically different.
As a result, these Pokémon needed to be reconstructed in order to be transplanted into the final build.
With that being said, this page hosts both the untouched version and the reconstructed (PKHeX compatible) version of the data.

It is important to note that the beta sprites only applies to the beta games;
Pokémon sprites are based on the game you're playing on, not the Pokémon file you use.
As such, you will not get beta sprites to appear just by using these files.

Note: It appears not every beta Pokémon in the artwork is available in this pack.

While the battle look rather different (opponents are outlined in this build),
it is believed that the beta sprites for Munchlax and Weavile at least originated from this earlier build.
The beta sprites were seen in some of the pre-release clips.

 
Many thanks to @BlackShark for his hard work on data decryption and @jojo12100 for his work on PKM structure.

In Pokémon Black 2 & White 2, a new feature called Hidden Grottoes were introduced. In these spots, besides random item spawns, players get to encounter Pokémon that have their Hidden Ability, which cannot be normally found in standard grass/cave/water encounters in the games. The levels varies, depending on which Grotto the Pokémon was encountered in. It is important to note that any kind of Hidden Grotto encounter cannot be shiny.

Besides the standard grotto encounters, the in-game mechanic Funfest Missions also allows for different Pokémon to be encountered, though all but one of such mission are local wireless missions.

This page hosts files of the various different species that can encountered in the standard grotto, as well as Funfest Mission grottoes.
To be completely transparent, the Funfest grotto encounters were obtained using RAM manipulation, as detailed here. The only reason why this is done and why the files are included, is because it appears the encounters generated are indistinguishable from the actual Funfest mission.
Poliwag has been removed, because there's an announcement that claims the announcement for Poliwag was a mistake, and wouldn't be included.

This is a Wild Area event held by Sword and Shield. This event hosts Gigantamax Sandaconda and Gigantamax Drednaw.
This event is also presently the only way for Sword and Shield players to catch East variant of both Shellos and Gastrodon.
(Apparently, I forgot that the one that doesn't show up in the wild is West Form.)

This is a Wild Area event held by Sword and Shield. It appears to have some kind of mining theme, with all the Pokémon being at least part Steel, Ground or Rock type.
One can find a Gigantamax Copperajah or Gigantamax Coalossal if they are lucky.

The release of this event was fraught with issues, and the servers had to redistribute the Wild Area News multiple times to try to tackle them.

Note that these are to me memory, and do not have them 100% correct. I'll replace them when proof comes along.
Index 27: Initial Release. Has bugged item (0x1604) as part of the rewards. Crashes the game upon receiving it.
Index 28: Bonus_reward still has bugged item. However on normal_encount (rigel and base), reference to the bugged item has been removed, instead referencing a different award.
However it still appears to be bugged, perhaps server side. These raids could not be done online.
Index 29: ??? (I do not have this)
Index 30: Properly Fixed: Armorite Ore reinstated in the bugged slot of bonus_reward, and normal_encount references that slot.
Index 32: Post Sea Pokémon Invasion

This is a Wild Area event held by Sword and Shield. All the event slots are held by Pokémon that can Gigantamax.
This marks the first time the Gigantamax variants of Gengar, Lapras, and Appletun can be encountered on Pokémon Sword (without being hosted by a player that has Pokémon Shield).
This also marks the first time the Gigantamax variants of Machamp, Coalossal, and Flappe can be encountered on Pokémon Shield (without being hosted by a player that has Pokémon Sword).
This Wild Area event also sees the return of Gigantamax Snorlax and Gigantamax Toxtricity, which normally cannot be found in the base games without Wild Area events.

This is a Wild Area event held by Sword and Shield. Besides Zeraora, all the event slots are held by Pokémon that can Gigantamax.
This event allows Zeraora to spawn as event boss, though important to note that it cannot be caught.
This event also features the shiny Zeraora, at a higher level of difficulty.
If a million Zeraora gets defeated before a deadline, a shiny Zeraora will be gifted to players via HOME.
To qualify, you need to shift a mon into HOME during that period.
This is the first wild area event since the DLC Isle of Armor dropped.
It adds a new file, called normal_encount_rigel1.
It either means players with the DLC can have their own event raids (across all of Galar),
or these event raids only apply to Isle of Armor.

This Pokémon is encountered at the Watchtower Lair's Den when the event item is used.
These are the stats for this Pokémon:

This Pokémon is a rare variant that is capable of Gigantamaxing, and can only be obtained via Max Raid Battles in the Wild Area.

While always available for capture (if found) in a den in the Wild Area, an event from November 15, 2019 to early January 2020 made it more commonly found in Pokémon Shield, by having it appear in dens normally not associated with it.
To be able to encounter the event variant, user's Switch must be connected to the internet, with the Mystery Gift>Get Wild Area News option used during the event period..
Alternatively user must have connected to the internet and redeemed a Mystery Gift during the event period.

Even though it was programmed for both games, this encounter is only valid for Pokémon Sword.

Even though it was programmed for both games, this encounter is only valid for Pokémon Shield.
Important to note, the likely reason it's programmed in both games, so that the event raid is sharable to the other game.

This Pokémon is encountered at the Watchtower Lair's Den when the event item is used.
This encounter is not shiny locked. However, frame advancing via VS or Invite method is presently not possible, as doing so will cause the raid will despawn.
While frame advancing is possible by simply using the crystals, it is impossible to get more than 2 crystals legitimately, as the Crystals cannot be traded.
As such, getting the shiny would be highly unlikely.
The only way (besides by chance) is to restart your game, and use a save editor to check whether you're 2 frames away from shiny. Only then, redeem the serial code and encounter them.

This is the info for this Pokémon:


Note that even though Work Up is the extra move for 1st and 2nd shield, the moves are disabled.

So, "need help with skipping Alola Photo Club" has been an issue that plagued users (primarily those that play on Citra)
With that, this tool was born.
Standard Disclaimer:
projectpokemon.org is not responsible if your save becomes unplayable.
Always have extra save backups in safe locations!

How it works:
It basically imports the event flags for a save, right after the Photo Club event was done.
It still requires PKHeX to fix the checksums of the save.

How to use it:
Follow the instructions on the tool, or:
Steps:
1. Load up a US or UM save that has progressed to right before the Alola Photo Club event.
2. Click on the "Standard Fix" button.
3. Now, load up the fixed save in PKHeX
4. Save in PKHeX, and export the save from PKHeX.
5. Import the save back into Citra (I assume)
