When you purchase the special Pokémon with You charity wristbands which have been released today in Pokémon Centers in Japan, you will also get a free serial code card. This serial code will give you access to a Shiny Jirachi. It is not known if this shiny Jirachi matches the one given at the Tanabata Festival in Tohoku earlier this year. The serial code can be redeemed from December 1st 2014 to May 28th 2015 on Pokémon X, Y, Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire
