Legality is weird on this one. Technically it is legal as it came from a Nintendo distribution cart, but seeing as said card was, for lack of a better term, "recalled" anything from said cart could be considered illegal. After reading over the thread you linked to, I'm starting to think Nintendo might consider the GAMESTP Celebi illegal. Then again, some stores might not have gotten the cart in enough time or swapped it out for the old one, so there could be GAMESTP Celebis out there that were gotten legitimately. Only way we can be sure is to contact Nintendo about it (which I doubt any of us will) or wait until the next Pokemon Stadium series game comes out and see it if doesn't turn into a bad egg.TM2-Megatron said:The NFO can't be right; there was never a shiny Celebi event, and if this is the one with the shiny beasts on it then that was leaked way back before the event began.
If this is the second Celebi distro cart, on the other hand, then I'm interested.You don't know what you're talking about.Pingouin7 said:It's the second one, it's even specified.He is right. I asked this earlier in this very thread.QUOTE(Pingouin7 @ Mar 6 2011, 11:55 PM)Poryhack said:Note that this is the legal Celebi, it has the OT name of WIN2011 instead of GAMESTP. The GAMESTP Celebi wasn't given away thus making it illegal.gumbyx84 said:What is the difference between this and Pokémon Distribution Cart 2011? Both NFOs say all four Pokemon (Raikou, Entei, Suicune, and Celebi) are on the cart. Is this one from the Celebi Tour or Gamestop? The NFO doesn't specify.
For some reason Gamestop didn't use the original one for celebi (but they did for the dogs) and instead got in a new card that is identical to the ones used at the Celebi Tour. So, technically it is both.
