Event Pokémon are distributed at Nintendo promotional events, such as movie premiers, expositions, festivals, and also at places like PokéPark and real-life Pokémon Center stores. They typically have a special OT indicating their authenticity, and usually a special promotional Ribbon from Generation III onward. In Generation IV, all Event Pokémon are distributed in Cherish Balls. Event Pokémon are usually desired because they know at least one special move that would otherwise be impossible for them to learn via leveling up, TMs, move tutors, or even breeding.
