It’s been awhile since we saw some Pokémon news in the pages of CoroCoro and the March issue has more details about the upcoming Ash Hat Pikachu movie distribution

According to Serebii, Japanese audiences who pre-order their tickets to the upcoming Pokémon movie will receive a serial code for a special Ash Hat Pikachu with a new Pikashumium Z Crystal that unleashes 10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt for their Pokémon Sun or Moon games.

Check out the CoroCoro scans below.

What’s interesting about this distribution is that the hat that Pikachu wears depends on when you redeem the code.

From April 15 to May 1 and again from July 19 to July 31 will gift Sun and Moon players a Pikachu with the original Kanto/Johto hat. The Hoenn Cap is distributed from May 3 through May 15 then again August 2 through August 14.

The Sinnoh Cap is distributed from May 17 to May 29 and again on Aug. 16 through Aug. 28. The Unova Cap is released from May 31 to June 12 and again on Aug. 30 through Sept. 11. And if you want the Kalos hat Pikachu you can go from June 14 through June 26 and again from Sept. 13 through 25.

Finally, from June 28 to July 17 you can get the Alola Cap Pikachu, repeated from Sept. 27 through Oct. 9.

These codes will only work with a Pokémon Sun or Moon game and there has yet to be any information regarding a North American distribution for the Ash Hat Pikachu but with other movie distributions, they will likely be announced around the time they premiere on television.

So which of the Ash Hat Pikachus do you want in your Sun or Moon game? Let us know in the comments section below.
