Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire - Nationals Gift
Every year, when you go to the National Championships, you will get the opportunity to download a special gift distribution of a Pokémon. It has been confirmed that in the German National Championships, running on the 16th & 17th of May 2015, you will be able to download a special Pachirisu based on the 2014 World Champion, Sejun Park's Pachirisu, which he used to help claim victory in the World Championships last year. This Pachirisu is Level 50 with its Hidden Ability Volt Absorb and the moves Nuzzle, Follow Me, Super Fang & Protect. It is highly likely that this distribution will also run in the UK Nationals on May 30th/31st, Italian Nationals on June 13th & 14th and probably the US Nationals in July, but these have yet to be confirmed. The Event Database has been updated with details of this event
