GameStop Giving Away Shiny Happy Pokemon
A new GameStop promotion is polishing up a trio of legendary Pokemon for elite trainers only.
Nintendo might be White [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/106451-Pokemon-Black-White-Celebrates-Release-Date-With-English-Trailer], but it hasn't forgotten about the previous DS Pokemon entries just yet. The month of January will see a promotion hosted at GameStop that features the giveaway of not one, not two, but three legendary Pokemon, and they're shiny to boot.
The Pokemon to be given away are shiny versions of Raikou, Entei, and Suicune. Shiny Pokemon are a color variant of regular Pokemon that usually have a sparkling animation and sound effect associated with them. Finding one is basically like buying a dog and discovering he can also peach-colored backwards hats [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h36YoC6Qrp4].
Shiny Raikou will be able to take advantage of the weather by using the Weather Ball move, shiny Entei can burn its opponents with the Flare Blitz, and shiny Suicune can use Sheer Cold to land a one-hit knock out (if lucky enough). All three will also have the ExtremeSpeed move, which inflicts damage with increased attack order priority.
You're going to want these Pokemon if you plan to get Pokemon Black & White, because transferring them to the upcoming titles will give players a chance to catch a SoulSilver [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Zoroark_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29] to pick up these shiny beasts.
