The official German Nintendo website has announced that a Nintendo Zone will be opening in Germany. It will only be at ten McDonald's restaurants where it is going to be tested out for only two monthes. But, you are probably wondering why we are posting this being an event website. Well that's because they are giving out two Pokémon events.

The first Pokémon is confirmed to be Jirachi. Chances are it is going to be exactly the same as the Jirachi being distributed right now on Nintendo Wi-Fi. It is available June 26 to July 15. So what is the other Pokémon?

The second Pokémon is revealed by a hint. It says it is a rare Pokémon with the special attack "gift" which is also known as the move Present. From that, you would guess it is Pikachu because of the Nintendo World Store distribution of a Pikachu that knew Present. But, as many of you event collectors know, Pikachu is definitely NOT one of the "rare Pokémon" so take the hint as you want, but it is Pikachu. It is available July 31 to August 27.

The official Europe Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver website has updated to announce a new Nintendo Wi-Fi event.

The Pokémon is the Wish Pokémon known as Jirachi. The Jirachi will unlock Night Sky's Edge on the Pokéwalker. It's available to download from June 26, 2010 to July 16, 2010 on Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver. Note, this event will start right after the Winner's Path Pokéwalker course ends on Friday. Also, it has not been announced for the US or Australia, but chances are you can download it if you have the game.

Just about all of the details are known about the Jirachi. The OT is SMR2010, like the Australia Jirachi but changes for each country, and the ID is 06260. It is level 5, captured in a Cherish Ball, and has a Classic Ribbon. The moveset is Wish, Confusion, Rest, and Draco Meteor. The ability is Serene Grace and is holding a Liechi Berry.

At this year's E3 convention in Los Angeles, California, Nintendo is planning on showing some Pokémon games along with the new 3DS. At this time, Nintendo is getting ready to start their presentation. We will be updating this page with information if and when it comes. You can watch it live by visiting e3.nintendo.com right now.
