PokemonGoldSilver.com has announced that participating Toys "R" Us stores in the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada will distribute an in-game representation of Ash's Pikachu. The distribution in the United States and Puerto Rico will be from Jan. 30 to Feb. 13, 2011; and from Feb. 9 to 20 in Canada. The Pikachu will be available to all Generation IV games, although a whether or not a Wi-Fi distribution similar to the Japanese event earlier this year will also be held is currently unknown.

Ash's Pikachu

The Japanese distribution of Ash's Pikachu took place July 15 through Aug. 10, 2010. The announcement confirms this Toys "R" Us Pikachu to be male, level 50, holding a Light Ball and knowing the moves Volt Tackle, Iron Tail and Thunderbolt. Since this distribution is expected to be a translation of the Japanese event, it will most likely come in a Cherish Ball, have a Classic Ribbon and feature Quick Attack as its final move.
