Can we only show the on-going events? Adding the upcoming events lengthens the front page too much. Perhaps we can show the upcoming events on a different page, like what we did on upcoming episodes.

February 4, 2010 and I still cannot get Mew over the WFC.  Is this event actuallly going on?

Argh, I'm really lost and a brand new poster (as should be obvious), but I've got something really potentially relevant to this article and I just wanted to make sure everyone knew. Today at Gamestop I was told there is to be a Jirachi event that hasn't been revealed, which is to start the day the shiny Pichu event ends. No idea where to put this or how to format it, I'll leave that to someone more qualified.

== Australian Toys "R" Us Jirachi ==
 
Shouldn't the Australian Toys "R" Us Jirachi be listed under "upcoming"? It goes from June 3rd to 13th, 2010. Or is this just for Wi-Fi events? [[User:Bttsstewart|Bttsstewart]] 08:06, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 
== Removal of outdated events ==
 
The Crown Legendary Beasts and 7-Eleven Pikachu events have ended. They should be removed from the "Ongoing" section. [[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantomjunkie]] 02:27, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
 
== edit ==
 
Japanese B&W release is history, liberty ticket is ongoing, and while you're on it, Australian PokéPark Wii release is tomorrow, so that should soon be updated too. ^^ --[[User:BlackySully|BlackySully]] 19:33, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Croagunk, Kumasyun and all the Eevee evolutions' events are active now. [[User:Bluesun|Bluesun]] 03:27, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

== BW release date announced ==
 
Nintendo announced that Black and White will be released on March 6, 2011, so the North America release date doesn't have to be the vague "Spring 2011" anymore on the table. [[User:Titoxd|Tito]][[:wp:User:Titoxd|<span style="color:#008000;">xd</span>]]<sup>([[:wp:User talk:Titoxd|?!?]])</sup> 00:05, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

== Celebi Event? ==
 
The upcoming Celebi event should be added. [[User:Chum|Chum]] 03:16, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
:Added.--'''[[User:Immewnity|<span style="color:#88AADD">''immewnity''</span>]][[User talk:Immewnity|the]][[Special:Contributions/Immewnity|mew]]''' 13:44, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
The date on this event is wrong. It says that it starts on the 27th but the official site says it starts on the 21st. http://www.pokemongoldsilver.com/us/#/news/celebi And I quote,"For a limited time, get the Time Travel Pokemon Celebi via the character distribution event. Stop by the Pokemon Black Version & White Version Tour as it travels across the nation beginning February 5th, or vist Gamestop stores starting on February 21st." {{unsigned|Franco Castaneda}}
 
== Zoroark Wi-Fi Event ==
 
On this page it says the Zoroark event runs from Jan 16 to Feb 6, but when you look at the [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_Nintendo_event_Pok%C3%A9mon_in_2011#Pok.C3.A9mon_Smash.21_Zoroark List of Nintendo event Pokemon page], it says "February 15 to March 14, 2011", so which one is correct?
Furthermore, is it possible to access Japanese Wi-Fi events with a Japanese game without actually being in Japan? --[[User:RWS|RWS]] 01:36, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
:There are two distributions with currently the same "event name." If you look below, there's another one. The one you saw here is the one in Japan only. The one you saw on Bulbapedia was the Wi-Fo one. And yes, you can access Wi-Fi events without being in the country. You just need the right game version. <span style="font-family:Cracked; font-size:125%"><sup>[[bp:User:Tc26/Anime Predictions|<span style="color:#525252;">tc</span>]]</sup>[[:User:Tc26|<span style="color:#DAA520;">²₆</span>]][[:User talk:Tc26|<span style="color:#DAA520;">tc</span>]]<sub>[[bp:User:Tc26/Sandbox|<span style="color:#525252;">26</span>]]</sub></span> 06:02, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

== US Victini ==
 
US gets a Liberty Ticket over wi-fi from 6th March till 10th April.
I've heard somewhere that Europe gets the wi-fi event for the same dates, but can not find confirmation of that.

== Feb. 13 Entei? ==
 
I was going to download Raikou to my game and Entei is what I got, but Entei shouldn't have started yet because its not the 14th yet. Any suggestions? {{unsigned|Dalton358}}

== Canadian Ash's Pikachu? ==
The dates for the Canadian offer overlap and is later than the US offer, why is this not on there?  I would put it in myself, but I can't.  Dates is already confirmed.  I don't see what the problem could possibly be.--[[User:Mondoblasto|Mondoblasto]] 19:53, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

== US Celebi wrong Event end date ==
 
I left a similar message on the front pages talk page but since I can leave one here to I though this would be better. The US Celebi event ends March 6th not March 7th I cannot change it however since I believe you have to be an auto confirmed user to edit this article. Could someone please change it for me.--[[User:Marchbaby|Marchbaby]] 14:58, 22 February 2011 (UTC)

== Comment not commented ==
 
The comment in Wi-Fi → Upcoming ('Please confirm for PAL games') is surrounded with <code><!-</code> and <code>-></code> instead of <code><!<nowiki>-</nowiki>-</code> and <code>-<nowiki>-</nowiki>></code>, so it actually shows up in the table.
