Rushing to work so I hope someone can add this to the news properly.

Even though it is not listed on the site, you can connect to Mystery Gift in SS, Pearl, and Platinum at least (I'm assuming HG and Diamond as well but I don't have those) and the Jirachi IS available for DL right now via WiFi. Just picked up three.

Happy catching!

the US isn't part of europe (just saying...)

maybe the other thread should be more specific in the title at least

The Bulbanews staff hasn't yet got to fixing it. But the news article in question states that it may concern US versions too, like it did.
 
i know the main site article covers it but would it be possible to amend the title of the other thread? many US players would not read the thread thinking it's not applicable to them & maybe miss the event - also (as shown here) people may post more "hey it's US too!" threads

just trying to help dude
 
I'll test it, just to be sure.

EDIT: Oh, my goodness, it's true! I just got one!
 
I know the news said it could be POSSIBLE, but there was no definite in the article and it is not listed as an event (or wasn't when I left for work) on Pokemon.com. This could have easily been missed by US people. Agreed, they could easily just change the news tritle, but I wanted to make sure that the US folks knew it was currently out there for them since there was no OMG SCREAMING ANNOUNCEMENT. *laughs*
 
I think we can confirm the possibility now.
 
I'm pretty sure Europe's Wi-Fi distribution of Pikachu-colored Pichu was available to US as well. I just assumed that this event was confirmed in that thread.
 
This is pretty much covered by the original thread, so I'll close this one.

The way I originally worded the article during submssion expressed no doubt that this would be downloadable outside of Europe. The way the Mystery Gift is programmed allows for no true regionalisation; the distribution program is only able to discern games by their language, not their actual location. Similarly, a French-language game in Quebec should be able to download the Jirachi meant for France.

This event won't be announced on Pokemon.com, or the American or Canadian Pokemongoldsilver.com. Officially, it's only in Europe, and for whatever reason they don't bother announcing such events, as they didn't with the Pichu either.
