First, to coincide with the annual Tanabata Festival, a Level 10 Jirachi will be distributed from August 1st – 31st. It has the moves Wish, Swift, Healing Wish & Moonblast and will come holding a Star Piece. The other special Pokemon to be distributed will be another Vivillon, this time with a Pokeball pattern. Available August 1st – 18th, players will be able to pick up this Vivillon from Pokemon Centers around the country to celebrate the Pokemon Center Summer Festival. The Vivillon will be identical to the one distributed to French players last month.
