As promised, The Pokémon Company is celebrating 20 years of Pokémon with a new legendary pokemon every month! This month’s “theme” is Celebi, and they have detailed all of the available events and merch! Celebi, #251, is a time travelling Pokémon that was originally introduced Pokémon Gold and Silver, and is only obtainable through special events.
Celebi is now available to Pokémon X/Y/OR/AS as a gift distribution through Mystery Gift. In order to retrieve Celebi, you need to boot up your game, go to “Mystery Gift”, and select obtain through internet. The Celebi distributed is at level 100, with the moves Confusion, Recover, Heal Bell, and Safeguard. The Nature and other stats are not set, so you may need to soft reset to get the Celebi you want (PROTIP: A recommended nature for Celebi is Bold or Impish).
Also available is The Celebi collection for the Pokémon TCG. Similar to last month’s Mew collection, this box set includes a full-art promo card and collector’s pin, as well as two booster packs from the Pokémon TCG: Generations expansion. It will be available wherever Pokémon TCG products are sold, but don’t delay! My experience is that these boxes usually sell out within the first few days, so if you really want it, you need to go out there and get it right now! Like, why are you waiting?
New Celebi figures will now be available at participating Toys ‘R Us stores as well. One will be a special 2″ Celebi figure that comes with a Great Ball, as well as an 8″ crushed-velvet Celebi plush.
Also, for a limited time, the movie Pokémon 4Ever will also make a return on Pokémon TV (available via smartphone or pokemon.com). It will also be available for purchase on the iTunes Store, Google Play, and Amazon Video. This adventure follows Ash and his team as they try to crack down on a mystery surrounding Celebi.
That’s a lot of time-travel for one month! Will you be picking up any of these promotional products? Please let us know in the comments!
