No wi-fi for this event. Nintendo Power announced that the Arceus will be distributed at TRU from November 7-15 in the US only.

A scan is up at Bulbanews.

Edit: This is available for Diamond, Pearl and Platinum.
 
It doesn't seem to mention what level Arceus is(hopefully anything lower than 100) but whatever I'll still be picking one up. Thanks for the info
 
It will be the stupid Lv. 100 Farceus, all the events that the US got that happened in Japan will be the same.

I await patiently for the Japanese Lv. 80 version.

Sweet. Does anyone know if this Arceus will unlock anything special in HG/SS or DPP?

Having this Arceus in HG/SS allows you to catch one of the three dragons in DPPt (Dialga, Palkia, Giratina-O). Each comes with their respective orb and a special move and are each at level 1. Dialga gets Metal Burst, Palkia gets Hydro Pump, and Giratina gets Shadow Sneak.

This Arceus serves no special purpose in DPPt other than filling the Pokedex.

Actually, the moves aren't really special. They learn them by level up. You can trade the ones caught in DPP over and they can learn them via heart scale.
 
This Arceus will also unlock story stuff in Platinum, but its main competitive use is getting Origin Giratina outside of Platinum.
 
actually that's already been known back when the movie arceus in japan was giving out if i am mistaken.
 
Yeah, just to clarify, since the Griseous orb returns to your bag whenever you try trading, you can only legally obtain the Griseous Orb in HGSS by getting the Giratina from the in-game event at Shinto Ruins activated by Arceus.
 
Oh wow that's cool, Hopefully it means that Shaymin-S and the Rotom Forms will be available in HGSS as well as on Wifi as well

The Gracidea's obtainable in Goldenrod City when you present the flower lady a Fateful Encounter Shaymin, and the Motors are located in Silph Co.

That's about all the event items that are in Hg/Ss. I can't remember if Hg/Ss allows for event forms to be in battle on Wi-Fi, though...
 
This is awsome, Now i can finally complete my nationaldex.

Bet really, I hope it is a good version of Arceus that is actullyusable.
 
Does anybody actually use arceus on a regular basis? Except for 12 year olds on PBR wifi? Just curious...
 
So is this going to affect the Ubers ladder at all? AFAIK, the only reason we weren't having Arceus on there was because it could only be obtained illegitimately. Even if all we got was Farceus that could only have 100 EVs in every stat, Arceus still remains the most versatile Pokemon in the game that could easily shake things up.
 
As others have said,I dont really know if its going to be unbanned or not.Still this sounds good,hopefully we can see more legit arceus on wifi shops.
 
Awesome, now I'll be able to get Giratina-O (first time, since I didn't bother with Platinum), and I'll also complete the Pokedex.
