A little holidays post. :p
I know I'm terribly late to say it, but Merry Christmas to everyone of you anyways. ;)

So the Pokémon Giveaway I organised is finally complete on pokewifi, yay ! :D
Now there's the 4F and the Serenes Forest forum to take care of. The 4F won't be a problem, as the Giveaway is nearly complete there too ; it's Serenes which worries me. Why is there so much Pokémon threads in there, yet only 5 members answered to the Giveaway ? That's very strange, I maybe should post a poll on the "Far from the Forest" board to ask this. :/

And two days ago, I went to Tôkyô's Pokémon Center shop to retrieve a copy of the special Eevee currently distributed in Japan. It wasn't very hard to find my way, especially when arrived at the station right near the Center. :p
And my visit there was successful. I got the Eevee (only in my Platinum cart though, doesn't work for non-Japanese carts), visited the Center, and also bought a Flareon and an Umbreon figurines (I'm a fan of those two Eeveelutions :p).
That being said, I'm a bit disappointer towards Nintendo : I ask the employees at the Center on what was the famous second present Nintendo was keeping a secret about until recently, and they told me it's a mere watch bearing the pictures of the Eeveelutions !! So, unless there's a miracle, Flare Blitz Flareon possibility goes down the drain, I fear. T_T
(And thus, I will keep my Eevee untouched, to keep it rare. It's more valuable that way - especially in trades, if I can find somebody trustworthy to AR clone it in several copies -, than a stupid watch. :/)
After going back to my home, I SR'ed this Eevee, and after about 25 minutes I got one which was promising : according to MetalKid's calculator and the personnality description of the Poké ("Alert to sounds"), it had at 31 IV in Speed, 30 or 31 in Special Attack, and between 20 and 29 in all other stats. So I took the risk, and saved to keep this one, and then checked its complete IVs with the Rare-Candy-level-up-then-turn-off-game-without-saving method.
And even though the Hidden Power type sucks (HP Steel 68), I was right to take the risk, as the IVs are very good :
HP : 25
ATT : 29
DEF : 23
ASP : 31
SpD : 26
SPe : 31
Yup yup, it would be an awesome asset in my future trading shop on the Pixalgo Network Pokémon site, if I could get it cloned. :p
Tr:Dr version : Lady Luck gave me a wonderful present by gracing me with an excellent Special Event Eevee with awesome competitive IVs. :D
