Back in the good old days (insert year here), A Mew giveaway was arranged by Bergsala, the Nintendo distributor in Denmark, through the official Nintendo magazine they were running at the time. They had participants send in their cartridge, and then they put a Mew on the cartridge. It was done in two rounds; one was a limited giveaway where approx. 30 people were selected in a contest, and then a general distribution later on with the same method. @suloku found the information regarding this online, and contact the player (using alias Michael, who wants to stay private), and managed to get his cartridge to back up the save and contribute the Mew online. While this Mew is already trained, I've attached a version which I reverted it to an "untrained" state. Big thanks to @suloku and Michael for this historical Mew find!

Throughout August to November 2001, a Celebi Tour was held across Europe. At that point, @Dr.Matt was able to grab the Celebi during the Spanish stop of the Celebi Tour. Trainer ID can span from 0 - 65535, possible Original Trainer Names being CTOUR, FRANCO, JENS, NICO. He was able to save his FRANCO Celebi from the plague which is Gen 2 cartridges dying batteries wiping the saves, using the combination of storing the Celebi on his Mega Memory Card (though it sadly glitched up and become corrupted) and Pokemon Stadium 2. After finding out that Dr.Matt has the Celebi but is unable to upload it, @suloku contacted Dr.Matt, in hopes being able to grab it and contribute it, as suloku has a GCB cart reader/flasher. Dr.Matt's trained Celebi can be seen in the screenshot with Stadium 2, as well his legitimate certificate for it. Huge thanks to @Dr.Matt for keeping this Celebi alive for so many years, and @suloku for reaching out to help obtain this. Many event Pokemon were lost to time thanks to the drained battery plague, so this is a very rare find!

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 Lugia 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 A more comprehensive schedule list can be seen here.
