L R Palkia Giratina Dialga 1024x682 The Pokemon Company International to Hold North American Shiny Pokemon Distribution Event in GameStop Stores

You may recall in an earlier article that The Pokemon Company International were planning a Shiny Pokemon distribution event at selected Gamestop stores across North America and EB Games stores in Canada. Nintendo of Australia who publish Pokemon games in Australia and New Zealand have confirmed that they will be holding the same event in both countries.

Beginning on the 30th August 2013 and running until the 11th October 2013, players can get their hands on Shiny versions of the hard-to-get legendary Pokemon – Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina—starting with Dialga, which was featured on the cover of the Pokemon Diamond video game.

Each Shiny Pokemon will be available, one at a time, for only two weeks each, so Trainers will need to plan accordingly and head to a participating EB Games (Australia) / JB Hi-fi (New Zealand) stores if you want to add these extremely rare Legendary Pokemon to your Black/White edition trainers arsenals.

Once the Steel- and Dragon-type Dialga’s distribution ends on September 12th, Pokemon fans can get a Shiny version of the Water- and Dragon-type Pokemon Palkia, beginning September 13th, and a Shiny version of the Ghost- and Dragon-type Pokemon Giratina, beginning September 27th. Palkia is the Legendary Pokemon featured on the cover of Pokemon Pearl, and the Giratina players will receive is the same Legendary Pokemon that appears in both games. Perhaps a way of upping the rare value of your Pokemon trainers Pokedex in X and Y?

The Pokemon are to be available on the following dates:

Shiny Dialga: Friday August 30th, 2013 – Thursday September 12th, 2013
Shiny Palkia: Friday September 13th, 2013 – Thursday September 26th, 2013
Shiny Giratina: Friday September 27th, 2013 – Friday October 11th 2013

Players will need to have the Pokédex within the game and have no more than 11 Wonder Cards in their possession.
