Toys 'R' Us giving away Shaymin in February: U.S. retailer deletes Facebook event page

Updated: Earlier this week, Toys R Us created a Facebook event page for a Shaymin giveaway to be held Feb. 8-14 in participating U.S. stores. Players of Pokémon Diamond or Pearl can obtain Shaymin from in-store DS Download Stations. The store will also distribute a coupon for $5 off any Pokémon Nintendo DS game and a free Pokémon poster. However, Toys R Us deleted the event listing today. Pokemon.com also removed references to the event.

Crap... is this all because it got leaked? If so, I can't believe Nintendo is taking it so seriously. I still want my own grass hedgehog... X_X

this might explain why I couldn't find the Facebook page. I looked for a good hour haha

Do they think it's still too early to reveal Shaymin giveaways?
 
Re: Toys 'R' Us giving away Shaymin in February: U.S. retailer deletes Facebook event

It seems like the TRU person released the information too early. Pokemon.com had a notice that said it would make a big announcement on the 29th, so TRU kind of ruined that. After that both pages got deleted.

Yes, and now the poster images have been leaked.
The Regigigas Event is going to be held from March 8 to March 21.

It's not going to be, it's just that PUSA didn't want them revealing the event when they wanted to reveal it on their website.

Yeah, now that we have official posters, its obvious.

Hopefully that Shaymin-coupon-thing can be used sometime after the event, like in March, when a certain game I will more than likely send this Shaymin to comes out.
