These are historical reference properties, not measurements of an available PKTS specimen. Variable values must follow the original event rules; archive samples do not establish a guaranteed stat spread.

Checks still open

Trainer IDs are sequential specimen identifiers, not a fixed event ID. Different numbers alone do not create new listings. A supplied specimen must pass both historical and technical checks. Nature and IVs vary under the original correlated generation method; archived specimen values are not fixed gift requirements. No matching local archived specimen is available for this exact station and profile. The draft is based on documented campaign data; no merchant stock is implied.

Transfer limitations

Historical held items are not included in a Pokémon HOME delivery.

Provenance and availability

Preparation draft — unavailable to order. No merchant specimen has been authenticated or tested for Pokémon HOME delivery. Historical records, archive files and legality rules do not prove original-era redemption, merchant stock or successful transfer. Any reconstructed specimen must be labelled as reconstructed before sale.

Fixed historical properties take priority over competitive requests. No blanket 6IV, EV training, nature or move changes are promised. Later games may handle moves and abilities differently. Supply, delivery and applicable permissions must be confirmed before publication; no return transfer to GBA, DS or 3DS is promised.

Compatibility & delivery

An original GBA specimen requires compatible transfers through the DS generations before Poké Transporter and Pokémon Bank can be used. This describes a potential technical route, not a successful transfer test for this product.

Pokémon Bank ends service on 26 February 2027 at 03:00 UTC. Bank-to-HOME transfers require a HOME Premium Plan and must be completed before that deadline. Pokémon already in HOME require a separate availability and delivery check. HOME transfers are one-way; no return to the original GBA, DS or 3DS game is offered.

Compatibility with a current game depends on the species, form and that game’s supported transfers. HOME storage does not establish compatibility with every game. Original held items are excluded, and moves can differ in later games. No destination game, Moving Key delivery or friend trade is confirmed for this draft.

Historical and competitive versions

The intended historical version preserves the event’s fixed identity, including OT, Trainer ID, shiny rule, ball and required ribbons. No Competitive Optimized Version has been verified or offered here. 6IV, Battle Ready, custom OT, EV training and altered move sets are not included as product promises.

HOME delivery instructions

For a confirmed Friend Trade, send PKTS your Pokémon HOME Friend Code and trade using the mobile app. This method does not require HOME Premium; account eligibility and event-specific trade restrictions still apply.

For a confirmed Moving Key transfer, you need Pokémon HOME Premium. Generate a Moving Key in your own HOME and send the 16-character key to PKTS when the transfer is ready. It expires after three minutes. PKTS enters your key in Pokémon Bank to send the Pokémon to your HOME. Bank-to-HOME transfers are one-way. The images explain these possible methods; they do not confirm that both methods are available for this unverified event draft.

Verification status

Needs Verification — preparation draft, unavailable to order. The supplied specimen, authenticity category, working delivery route, artwork permissions and applicable selling rights remain unconfirmed. An original-era specimen requires provenance evidence; a reconstructed specimen must be labelled as reconstructed.

Still to verify: Gender; Form; Original EVs; Encounter and met data.
