It's an event pokemon from a different gen so the answer is no. Event pokemon never get love and if they do, it's only when they're in the same gen (Arceus event in HGSS) or there's a remake (Deoxys in ORAS).
I wonder if they'll de-event some stuff though like they did with Deoxys. I mean there's no point in keeping the bazillion gen 4 and 5 event legends event exclusive anymore. Leave the 600BST faries as events but when the gen 4 remakes come they should make Darkrai and Arceus catchable and give access to Shaymin's zone for dex completion (keeping in mind that event pokemon don't count towards dex completion).
Why do download events that are limited for a short period of time exist anymore?
Yes, you could give away Pokemon that are just "special" like shinies, pokemon with certain attacks and abbilities or OTs.
But why not make them just ingame, too?
Do GF or Nintendo gain anything from having certain Pokemon only availlable for some short period of time?
I once read somewhere that you could actually send your cartridges to Nintendo and they would load the necessary event items onto them but they supposedly don't do that anymore.
