Pikachu Colored Pichu Coming To USA!

Pokémon.com has been updated with information about Pikachu Colored Pichu. The event will take place at GameStop.

The event will be available from January 30th until February 14th for all those who have Pokémon Diamond, Pearl or Platinum. Once Pokémon HeartGold & SoulSilver is released you can send your Pikachu Colored Pichu to any of the two games which will then allow you to obtain Notched Ear Pichu. Pokémon.com had this to say:

"Head to GameStop beginning January 30th to get a unique Shiny Pichu for your Pokémon Diamond, Pearl or Platinum Version game!

A special Pichu is heading to Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum Versions, but only for a limited time! From January 30th to February 14th, head to a U.S. GameStop store with your Nintendo DS and Pokémon game to receive a Shiny Pichu! This Shiny Pichu is a deeper yellow color than most Pichu, and it has bright red cheeks, much like its famous evolved form, Pikachu!

Shiny Pichu holds even more secrets if you transfer the Pokémon to either Pokémon HeartGold or SoulSilver Version, coming March 14th. Once you've traded Shiny Pichu, take it to Ilex forest to meet Spiky-Eared Pichu, the one featured in the recent movie, Pokémon: Arceus and the Jewel of Life!

Be sure to visit your local GameStop store between January 30th and February 14th to get this one-of-a-kind Pichu and reserve your copy of Pokémon HeartGold or SoulSilver Version! Stay tuned to Pokémon.com for more information!"
