A distribution of {{p|Celebi}} has been announced for Finland. The Pokémon will be distributed at participating Anttila and GameStop stores. Some Anttila stores distribute the event from 11th through 20th February while the rest from 23th February through 3rd March. GameStop's distribution will start on 14th February and last until the release of {{game|Black and White|s}} on 4th March, though unlike the Anttila distribution, GameStop offers Celebi only for players who preorder either of the new {{bp|Generation V}} games.
Similar to other upcoming event Pokémon distributions in Scandinavia, Finnish retailers Gamestop and Anttila will be offering the Grass/Psychic legendary Pokémon {{p|Celebi}} in the coming weeks.


The event Celebi, when transferred to a Pokémon Black or White cart, will allow the players to encounter a {{p|Zorua}}.
The dates of distribution will vary from store to store. Some Anttila stores run the even from Feb. 11 through Feb. 20, while the rest will have Celebi available from Feb. 23 through March 3. Gamestop will be distributing Celebi from Feb. 14 through March 4; the distribution ends the same day {{game|Black and White|s}} are released. Note that Celebi is being offered as a pre-order bonus at Gamestop stores, and can only be downloaded if a copy of either Black or White has been reserved. (Anttila's pre-order bonus is a keychain.)


The preorder bonus, a keychain, was also announced for preorders made from Anttila.
The Celebi Wonder Card is able to be downloaded to any {{bp|Generation IV|fourth generation}} game: that is, {{game3|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}; the Pokémon itself can be collected from any Pokémon Center or Department Store. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, this Celebi will unlock a special time-travel event in {{bp|Ilex Forest}}; additionally, if it is transferred to a Pokémon Black or Pokémon White cart, it will trigger an encounter with a {{p|Zorua}}. This is the only known way to encounter Zorua in these games.
