Question

How can I get Celebi in SoulSilver?

Answer 1

The DNS Exploit allows you to access old Mystery Gifts, including Celebi in all Generation IV games. Please see this answer for a walkthrough and this post for a list of obtainable Pokemon. This will specifically net you the Winter 2011 Celebi, which 1) lets the Giovanni event take place and 2) may be transferred to BW via the Relocator to obtain Zorua.

You can also transfer one from Generation III. In Pokemon Colosseum, the Japanese Bonus Disc allows the player to transfer Celebi to a Japanese GBA game after all 48 Shadow Pokemon are purified. The US version gifts Jirachi instead.

Answer 2

The only legitimate means of getting Celebi is through a wifi event, or the japanese bonus disc of pokemon colosseum. However, the event is over, and the disc is very rare (and likely expensive). You could find somebody willing to trade, or challenge someone to a battle and get them to wager Celebi.

DT, don't forget that using PokéDex isn't allowed in Wi-Fi battles;))

I think he means challenging somebody who owns Celebi and challenging them to a battle, and they have to give up a Celebi if they lose.

Answer 3

You get celebi by an event which has passed so you can't get him sorry.
