[spoiler=I think I'm ready.](http://i50.tinypic.com/20q05qa.png)
also legit a legit Diamond and a legit Platinum.[/spoiler]
Could you grab one for me?
Canadians ignored again I see. ;-;
Guess I could go ahead and run up there.
I may be able to get ONE of you Canadians one, due to the fact that I have Pearl and Platinum.
Just got mine.
I'm guessing they'll always have a jolly nature. My girlfriend's Pichu had a jolly nature as well.
Gah, I meant to go up today, but I forgot.
There's always tomorrow. It's like a 10 minute drive, but I guess it'd be worth it.
They made me give them the DS to let them get the gift. I didn't want to give them the flash card in case they thought something was up. I only got two. If this statement is correct:

I'll clone one of them and distribute it. I couldn't get a .pcd or .pgt, nor a "template", as I'll call it, .pkm file for the event but at least I can get the .pkm file that was given to me.
I want one ;-;
I hope I can go

You have to give them it? That's a bit prudish; at mine they didn't even care about it.

Yeah, they're always jolly; I got 3 and they're all the same nature.

Seriously, I would have been so mad if some ass in the store made me give them my DS.

So was anyone able to do it from the parking lot?

the 2 gamestops in my area are in a mall so doing it from the parking lot won't work, and besides it only takes a minute if that

I don't mind going inside, I just prefer not to.
My GameStop said that the Wireless Network was down. Is this possible?

I wasn't, which is weird because the door is like... 5 feet away from where I parked. I also didn't have time to go in, I was in a big hurry and the stupid place is really out-of-the-way, so I ran out of time trying to get it from the parking lot.
Why can't they just give this over wi-fi? Honestly, this going to a store to pick it up bullpoop is starting to get on my nerves.
I don't understand why it's such a big deal to go inside the store to get the darn thing. Phaze, you even said yourself you wasted all of your time trying from a distance. Just go in for five seconds and leave, that's how long it took me.
I have a friend that works at Gamestop, he was informed by his boss that the new strategy they're trying to increase sales further is to become "one" with the gaming community. There will be many more events and many more Gamestops exclusives(not just Pokemon game stuff either), so don't expect many Wi-Fi events. Or at least that's what I'm guessing. It makes sense considering every time you make a purchase there they practically beg you to take their "HOW AM I DOING?" survey and every big game that comes out has an exclusive item(s) or DLC.
Woo, got 2.
But now that I have it, how am I supposed to transfer it to my HG/SS (when I get it)?

Oh, trade it with me. I've got 2 as well.

Well, for whatever reason, I want
my Pichu to be transferred to my HG/SS (still haven't decided on which game), and since I only need 1 for the Spiky Pichu, only 1 will be moved around on my end.
Actually, with my major internet trust issues, I may just borrow a DS from a friend to do this, I was just wondering how
they expected this to work out.
Cool, I'll go Friday before heading to RPI.
Darn, I'm flying on vacation this weekend till Tuesday. Hope there's a Gamestop near me in Orlando. If not, still going to have fun down there.
Does anyone have a spare Gamestop Pichu I could have?
What's the big deal, anyway? It's not like this Pichu is of any use; I mean, it's totally worthless in its current form, but once you evolve it loses the one thing that makes it special... which isn't that noticeable, anyway.
Don't ask for mine though; I've already promised it to a friend so he can get Spiky-Eared Pichu when HG/SS comes out.

Many things are of no use, but the useless things are fun, I mean, why catch legendaries? you gonna use them? Usually no.
Wheeee, i got mine today.
And then realized it was no different than a shiny pichu. D:
actually, i figured that
My brother and I got our Pichus. Fuck yeah
So, is it going on Sunday too? Or is Sunday the day they stop giving it?

This. Can someone duplicate it so people that were unable to get the Pichu can have one?
Does anyone have an extra Pichu, if so, I'll give you something of equal or greater value, oh and same goes for the Gamestop Jirachi.

Start naming some things, I have 1 extra.
Bah, I couldn't get one. I ended up getting sick the weekend I was going to go, and simply didn't go out at all.
When does the Jirachi event start anyways?
February 27th to March 23th

Their site says the 27th, but I saw a commercial a couple days ago that said get yours today D:
By the way, you can now download the Pichu via Wi-Fi Connection unitl March 25th.
I still need to get that and the Jerachi.
