No longer need to sleep through September.. well at least all of it IMPORTANT UPDATE: 2/9/12

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

Beginning on the 1st of September 2012, GAME and Gamestation stores across the United Kingdom will be giving away the event Pokémon Keldeo!

All that you have to do is take your game and your DS, seeing as it'd be pointless not to, to your local GAME & Gamestation (it is always best to double check, but both stores have announced that all stores should be participating) and active Mystery Gift to download the event Pokémon. Arriving at Level 15, the Keldeo will be holding a PP Max.

Running up until October 11th, brilliantly enough the day before Black 2 and White 2 are released here, the Keldeo will be able to be taught the rare move Secret Sword on Black and White, or if you wait until transferring it across to Black 2 and White 2 it will active it's Resolute Form by learning the move on there.

How exciting..!

IMPORTANT UPDATE 1/9/12

Seemed a bit too good to be true. That's because some facts aren't. Whilst it was reported on the offical twitter page of GAME, that all stores would be offering Keldeo, it seems this isn't the case and it's only select stores.

We'll keep you posted as soon as we have a list

FOLLOW UP

It doesn't seem to be a clear answer on everything right now, however it seems the best idea is to go to your local store and ask if they're running the event. Some reports are coming in that the staff will have to transfer Keldeo personally to you.

I must say it was an incredibly disappointing event; Only Stockport got the tournament (Lucky so and so's), and when I asked they said "Oh good thing you asked! I Forgot about it!" And to think GAME have given word that they'll be running the Genesect distribution on the day Black and White 2 are released...I hope I don't put up with the same lack of service and half-arsed running of the event again...

In Swansea, Game are offering Keldeo with any preorder of B/W2. I don't know how widespread it is, but using it as a promo like that might explain why no one seems to know what's going on?
