色違いのライコウポケドール

SHINY RAIKOU POKEDOLL!

7/2010
Pokemon Center

 

On July 10th, 2010, Movie 13 ("Ruler of Illusion: Zoroark") hit theatres, and along with it came unusually sparkly, twinkling movie heroes! I am not talking about teenaged vampires, folks - I am talking about shiny Raikou, Entei and Suicune, of course! With their dramatic entrance onto the big screen, we first got word that anyone pre-ordering a movie ticket would get to pick one shiny beast to be downloaded into their game. That was only the start -- soon posters went up in the Pokemon Centers of Japan advertising a unique promotion for shiny beast lottery prizes. They were the first shiny Pokedolls!

​

Shiny Raikou Pokedoll(s) were given out from June 19th until July 25th, in the summer of 2010, as a special promotion for Movie 13. These are officially the first shiny Pokedolls ever made! An estimated 150-250 dolls were given out per Pokemon Center over the course of the month.

Included are my crunchy old photos of the moments I won these guys in the lotto myself at Tokyo and Yokohama Pokemon Centers!!
