As it turns out, getting Celebi isn't too terribly hard. Yeah, there's a few steps to go through, but this is the most reliable and least convoluted method of getting a Celebi into generation 3.

You will need a few roms, most of them as Japanese versions. Make sure the Colosseum bonus disc is from 2003, and not suffixed with a "v2" on it. That's important.

Serebii.net also has a good introduction on how it's all done as well.

You will also need a .gci save file of the Japanese Colosseum game. While you certainly do it normally, there's a user named "Suloku" on GameFAQs who completed the game for you.

Thank you Suloku! (Be sure to check the Japan section of saves)
