At the centre of the festival of wishes is the wish tree -- or wish bamboo to be more exact!
One of Pewter City's squares has been taken over by numerous pots of bamboo stalks. The pots are all different, creating a rainbow of colour. But what is the same is that each stalk of bamboo is decorated with fluttering strips of paper. And a closer look shows that these strips aren't just paper decorations -- each of them has been inscribed with a wish; from the small and childish wishes ("I want to eat a million candies!") to the sweetly poignant ones ("I hope my husband recovers quickly."), it looks like all the residents of Pewter City and the many festival visitors have transcribed their inner desires and have committed them to Jirachi.
Nearby attendants are armed with many more strips of paper and pens, offering them to anyone who has yet to add one of their own wishes to the trees. Why not give it a go? Who knows, maybe Jirachi really is listening.

Whether large or small, greedy or generous, we encourage you to submit a single wish per character. It could be for an item, big or small, or it could be for something less substantial, something impossible even. What may happen to your character's wish is in Jirachi's hands.
