Hmm... maybe my interpretation of me catching the shiny Raikou in the dream foretelling that the shiny beast event would be coming up in America wasn't so far off! Yesterday, it was revealed that the shiny beasts would be distributed at Gamestop in several weeks. However, unlike Japanese fans, we'll be able to potentially get all three of the beasts! Each legend will be given out for one week, and one week only:
Shiny Raikou (has the Rash nature, holds a Micle Berry, and knows Zap Cannon, Aura Sphere, Weather Ball, and ExtremeSpeed) January 3rd through January 9th
Shiny Entei (has the Adamant nature, holds a Custap Berry, and knows Flare Blitz, Crush Claw, Howl, and ExtremeSpeed) January 17th through January 23rd
Shiny Suicune (has the Relaxed nature, holds a Rowap Berry, and knows Air Slash, Sheer Cold, Aqua Ring, and ExtremeSpeed) January 31st through February 6th
The beasts are all at lv. 30, are in a Cherish Ball, and have a Classic Ribbon equipped. If transferred to Black or White, a special lv. 25 female Zoroark will become unlocked for capture. Each beast may be received once in any Generation IV game; that means since I own Pearl, Platinum, SoulSilver, and HeartGold, I can get four of each!




Be afraid. Be very afraid.
