Just making sure. This is pretty exciting! I missed out on the Arceus download at Toys 'R' Us so long ago, and my current Jirachi was acquired through...questionable means, so I'm happy to have the opportunity to get a "real" one.
This is also cool because my Jirachi and Pichu will be instantly added to my HeartGold team. My only question now is whether I'll need to borrow my friend's DS to transfer Pokemon from Platinum to HeartGold. I know I'll probably have to, which is kind of a bother, but it would be nice if there was some kind of workaround. Maybe create an account somewhere and "send" some Pokemon into a private box, then download those Pokemon into any DS Pokemon game.
