EDIT: Event also available in Europe!

This news item is more than 45 days old. Updates are unlikely and newer information may already be available.

Nintendo have officially announced that, following the successful distribution of the Member Card, an item of equal keyness, Oak's Letter will be distributed over Wi-Fi to the Yanks living across the big pond!

Now, while no official announcement has yet been made, it's very likely that this download will also be made available across Europe, as was the case with the Member Card download. It's also only for Platinum games as well, just like last time.

This of course means you'll be able to catch the legendary Shaymin the way it was always meant to be caught - and just hope your in-game character doesn't have hayfever.

You'll be able to receive Oak's Letter between September 28th and November 8th. Make sure you've unlocked Mystery Gift though - click here for details on how to do that.

After that simply head to a PokéMart to collect your prize, and then head to Route 224 and after graffiting a white rock, marvel at the length of the Seabreak Path (you won't laugh when you have to get up it), before arriving at Shaymin's home - the aptly named Flower Paradise.

Excitingly, this Shaymin will also allow you to pick up the Gracidea from Floarama Town - which will allow you to change Shaymin into it's Sky Forme during daytime.

I think I need another lie down...

I caught my Shaymin last night, it was one of the easiest Pokemon I've ever caught!! That makes a total of 3 now thanks to the Game event earlier this year. Lets just hope we can get the Jirachi event like they did in Japan.
