Shaymin in its Land Forme

As with event Shaymin from Generation IV games, this Shaymin grants players access to the Gracidea, which, in the case of Generation V, is available in the Lacunosa Town Pokémon Center. Players who show Shaymin in Sky Forme will be rewarded with a "thank you" card, after showing it to the staff working at the Pokémon Center stores from Jan. 1 to Jan. 15

Shaymin is the third Generation IV event-only Pokémon to be made available for the Generation V games, with Arceus the first and Darkrai the second, both of which know their respective signature moves: Judgement and Dark Void.
