Nearly a decade ago, Pokémon Diamond and Pearl debuted plenty of new legendary creatures. Some are scary but Manaphy is the complete opposite. It possesses the power to create bonds of friendship with others. Now, Manaphy and the Pokémon Company International are spreading the love with its latest distribution.

Fans can now add the legendary Pokémon to their copies of X, Y, Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire via the Nintendo Network. Just go to the receive gift option on the title screen and select the internet option. Your wonderful Water-type will pop up in no time for you to include on your team. Previously, the only way to obtain Manaphy was by using a special egg within Pokémon Ranger game, but this is so much easier. It will come at level 100 and know the move Tail Glow which boosts Special Attack stats by three stages. Don't wait, Manaphy will only be available from June 1 until June 24.

In addition to picking up the Pokémon for your game, there are a couple of other ways to celebrate Manaphy. It receives its own specially themed TCG set with collectible pin and fully illustrated cards. You can find figures and plush dolls at Toys R Us locations. Then, watch Manaphy star in the digitally remastered movie version of Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea.
