Special thanks to InsaneNutter and HaxAras. This effort wouldn't have been possible without their
contributions to the Pokémon scene.

Want to get Mew and Celebi? Look no further!

This save file is separate from Throwback altogether. However, it serves as an essential complement to
the hack. First off, this save contains the two Pokémon from the (circa 1999-2002) National Pokédex
that are missing from Throwback's Catch 'em All patch. Second, it offers players even more Pokémon
than just those two trade event staples: event Pokémon with unique moves!

This save file is meant to be used with a dedicated FireRed/LeafGreen ROM, not as a save file for
Throwback. If you want to take advantage of this save file via emulation, load up a second instance of
your emulator of choice using this save file. mGBA, VBA-M, and My Boy! all have link cable support.
Even though I made this primarily for use in tandem with Throwback, this isn't meant strictly for use
with the hack. Feel free to trade these Pokémon into any Gen III game you want! You can also opt to use
this on real hardware using a flashcart or creating a custom cartridge. If you choose to venture down the
latter path, keep in mind the specific file type that the Pokémon games use. It's different from most
other Game Boy Advance games.

Boxes 1-6: Event Mew, Celebi, and Pikachu

The first six boxes contain a specific type of Pokémon. The data of each individual Pokémon in each box
has been carefully modified to best resemble legitiamte Pokémon distributed through official means.
What this means is that each Pokémon has been assigned the original Trainer name, ID, and secret ID
used for the official events. They all have the "fateful encounter" location text as well as the original
movesets, levels, origin game, and attributes as officially-distributed event Pokémon.

Despite this, I can't guarantee that these Pokémon would be allowed into official Pokémon
tournaments. There may still be a few random bytes where these Pokémon differ from their officially-
distributed bretheren, making them potentially unusable. This especially goes for the Pokémon in
boxes 2 and 3, which were never officially released. I can assure you, though, that I made them as
legitimate as I possibly could. At the very least, you shouldn't get banned for using them online against
other players.

Box 1: Mew, Lv. 10

This box contains the Mystery Mew distributed at Toys "R" Us stores throughout the United States on
September 30, 2006 to celebrate the release of Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. This was the only way
for U.S. players to obtain a Mew in Generation III.

Box 2: Celebi, Lv. 10

This box contains the English version of the Ageto Celebi, which was available in Japan via a bonus disc
for Pokémon Colosseum. It was never officially released outside of Japan, but an English version was
prepared. The Celebi in this box resembles what the official version would have been like, and is offered
here as a means to preserve it for English-speaking players.

Box 3: Pikachu, Lv. 10

This box contains the English version of the Colosseum Pikachu, which was available in Japan via a bonus
disc for Pokémon Colosseum. It was never officially released outside of Japan, but an English version was
prepared. The Pikachu in this box resembles what the official version would have been like, and is
offered here as a means to preserve it for English-speaking players.

Box 4: Celebi, Lv. 70

This box contains the Celebi distributed at "Pokémon 10th Anniversary Journey Across America" events
throughout the Unites States between February 25 and July 23, 2006 to celebrate the 10th anniversary
of the Pokémon franchise. This Celebi is offered in tandem with the Celebi in box 2 in order to offer a
legal English version of Celebi. This was the only way for English-speaking players to obtain a Celebi in
Generation III, as the former Celebi was never officiallly released outside of Japan.

Box 5: Pikachu, Lv. 70

This box contains the Surfing Pikachu distributed at "Pokémon 10th Anniversary Journey Across
America" events throughout the Unites States between February 25 and July 23, 2006 to celebrate the
10th anniversary of the Pokémon franchise. This Pikachu was one of two ways for English-speaking
players to obtain a Surfing Pikachu in Generation III. It's offered alongside the alternative in box 13 for
players who want to start out with a high-leveled Pikachu.

Box 6: Pikachu, Lv. 70

This box contains the Flying Pikachu distributed at the "Party of the Decade" event in New York City on
August 8, 2006 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Pokémon franchise. This was the only way for
English-speaking players to obtain a Flying Pikachu in Generation III.

Boxes 7-12: Wish Egg Pokémon

The next six boxes contain Eggs of a specific type of Pokémon distributed at Pokémon Center New York
between December 16, 2004 and January 2, 2005. Each Egg hatches into a designated type of Pokémon
knowing two moves it wouldn't know otherwise: Wish, and another special move. Once hatched, the
Egg will take on the Trainer details of your player character.

Since they're in Eggs, these Pokémon — once hatched — should be fully tournament-legal.

Box 7: Farfetch'd

Moves: Yawn, Wish

Box 8: Drowzee

Moves: Belly Drum, Wish


Box 9: Exeggcute

Moves: Sweet Scent, Wish

Box 10: Lickitung

Moves: Heal Bell, Wish

Box 11: Chansey

Moves: Sweet Scent, Wish

Box 12: Kangaskhan

Moves: Yawn, Wish

Box 13: Surfing Pichu Egg

The last filled box contains Eggs that hatch into a Surfing Pichu. This Egg is the reward that players
receive in Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire for filling the entire storage system with Pokémon from a
single game. I hesitated to include this initially, as the Egg is still technically obtainable through standard
means. A couple of things changed my mind about it, though. First off, it's currently impossible for
people to obtain the Surfing Pichu Egg through emulation. As of the time of this release, Dolphin doesn't
have working Link Cable support for the Pokémon games, rendering the title unplayable. And second,
even if you do have the means to use Pokémon Box, the requirement to get the Egg is pretty ridiculous.

Since it's in an egg, the Surfing Pichu — once hatched — should be fully tournament-legal.

Box 13: Pichu

Moves: Thundershock, Charm, Surf
