List of event Pokémon
Generation VIII
PCSG Birthday Milcery
These Milcery were meant to be distributed via serial code to players of Pokémon Sword and Shield at the Pokémon Center store located in the 4th floor of the Jewel mall at Changi Airport from November 6, 2020 until October 31, 2021. The Wonder Card was available on the Wonder Card server between November 1 and November 6, 2020, however it was taken down and replaced on the morning of November 6, 2020, a few hours before the Pokémon Center store opened and the distribution was to begin.
The only difference between this Milcery and the one actually distributed was that it didn't have its nickname enforced. As it has an enforced English origin tag, this meant that its nickname would default to "???" if redeemed on a Korean, Simplified Chinese or Traditional Chinese save file. As the similar Japanese birthday event started a few days earlier on November 1, 2020 it was possible to obtain a similar Milcery without an enforced nickname during the first 6 days of that distribution.
This Pokémon may only be redeemed once per save file.
Date received is the date on the system when the gift is redeemed.
This Pokémon is English in origin, regardless of the language of the game.
Pokémon HOME Zigzagoon
Pokémon HOME originally launched with different Mystery Gifts loaded in the app (numbered from 1 to 5). However only 4 of the 5 original mystery gifts were ever made obtainable. The second mystery gift in sequential order was for a Zigzagoon meant to be a first Pokémon when downloading the App. When the app lauched, players were instead given a choice of one of the Kanto First Partner Pokémon: Bulbasaur, Charmander or Squirtle. While distribution cards exist, the characteristics of this Zigzagoon are currently unkown.

This Celebi was found on the same distribution cartridge as the GameStop Shiny legendary beasts. While it was replaced by the Winter 2011 Celebi before the official start date of the event, some GameStop stores began the distribution early, resulting in some copies of this Celebi being distributed. Based on the ID number and the period of the distributed Celebi, it was intended to be distributed from February 27 to March 20, 2011.
