I just caught Shaymin, I have 2 now. This one and the Event one that was supposedly the only one that could transform, but oh well. Another Useless Shaymin i'll never use and will forever be confined into my Computer.

Next: Arceus.

Now he is going to be a ballache to catch, Hopefully the Arceus will activate the Arceus Event in Heart Gold and Soul Silver.

hopefully Nintendo will make Wifi events for Heart Gold so that Celebi is now actually available.

Doesn't work yet. Nintendo still haven't released it, because a couple of people I know (myself included) still haven't been able to download the Mystery Gift. Still, we hope it will be resolved today.

Downloaded the letter, but I still have to beat the Elite Four. I probably should, just to get some stuff ready for Soul Silver.

No I won't be getting Shaymin. I quit Pokémon. I got addicted to it like druggies are addicted to crak. So I will not be getting this.

Well that's silly if you'd rather miss out on an entire event, just so your Wii is offline for five minutes. Ever realised that you could just change WEP back to WPA once you're done?

Well I'll download this later on today. I already have all the event legendaries (even a 12th Movie Arceus), but you can never have too many. Laughing

Although I already had a Shaymin, I thought I'd take a L:34 Luxray down and see how tricky it was to catch.

It was pretty easy to be honest, but it did heal itself of paralysis once due to a Lum Berry, but when I paralysed it again, it was effectively ready to catch once I lowered it's Health.

Caught in just one Ultra ball just a few minutes ago.

I already have Shaymin on Pearl version, so I don't NEED this one.

I hope the Arceus event is sometime soon. I can't wait.

Tips:
-Try using a high level pokemon with false swipe, and only use false swipe as it leaves shaymin with 1hp everytime.
-If leech seed hits you switch the pokemon your using out then back in so it doesn't heal as often and you don't lose so much health.
-Using taunt can stop Shaymin from healing.
-Shaymin will always have a lum berry(heals status problems) when you fight it, so you will have to put it to sleep or paralyze it twice if that's your plan.
I hope that helps anyone struggling.

Got my Oak's Letter earlier this morning. I already have a good few Shaymin (about four different ones) already so I won't be bothering to catch this one until I've learned how to manipulate the RNG.

Yes i realise i can change it back but my brothers ps3 would also go offline & he wouldn't be to pleased even if it is for 5 minutes. Also dads pretty strict on the router settings.

That was bloody easy to catch Razz

I got it in my first ultra ball XD Only took a few hits with a level 30 to get into red too. Was expecting another hour long struggle like darkrai (trying to save my master ball for HGSS)

My Dakrai,Shamin and Arceus on Pearl and legit, so its good to have proper ones for pearl. I'm not gonna put any fakes on this game ^^
Just Arceus and I should be well on the way to getting that dex finished. I meant to do it on pearl but like wiimote I'm screwed with WPA settings that I can't change so I have to wait for HGSS compatibility to use the GTS again.

I'm hoping to get a DS and Platinum for christmas so I won't be able to do this. What are the chances of a similar event in the future?
