What is the best way to get event pokemon?

Yeah so I started from scratch with Black. I've also been using Heat Gold and Sapphire a little to get some pokemon that feel kind of pathetic to trade for like Caterpie and Rattata. Now my pokedex is filling up quite nicely with one exception: event pokemon. What I'm wondering is how would you my fellow Redditors go about getting these hard to get pokemon when some random legendary pokemon is the closest thing I have to a real bargaining chip?

I believe there are some websites that provide you with event Pokemon through setting a custom DNS in your Internet settings, if I'm not mistaken.

Does this work for older generations, or is there a seperate site for this? I don't own Black or White, but I do have SoulSilver...

I am amazed I have never heard of or seen this. Thank you! I am finally able to get some pokemon I thought I would never own.

I caught all 646, mostly through simple catching and evolving. But if I couldn't find a certain Pokemon, I'd ask around on /r/PokemonTrades and other forums for trade and tradebacks, just so I could get that Pokemon in my Podedex and then search for it on GTS.
