what's going to be at this tour? getting to play black and white before they're released right? but what we really want to know is celebi going to be available at this tour or are they going to give it out over wi fi at a later date? I hope the latter
Yeah, we got wind of this a while ago and reported it as well.
Basically, it's not known exactly what we'll get just yet. However, I'm 99% sure we won't get a viewing of the latest Pokémon movie (as that'll be aired on CITV soon) and I don't think Celebi will be at this tour. If we get Celebi, it'll most likely be distributed at GAME over a similar period. Obviously, the London event will have the Black & White games ready to play before they're officially released - but if this is basically the only thing at the tour, the remaining dates might not be as worth it because you could've bought the game(s) yourself by then (although it might be your first chance to battle and trade with people on your new game, offline).
Sadly, those are the only venues being graced with a visit and it'll be a much more 'toned down' version of the American events. Why can't they come to wales even if I have to travel to Scumdiff I'd be happy Notice how none of these other than London are in the South. Events never seem to come anywhere near the South-Western end of Britain. and if you live in glasgow you have to be willing to go to x factor live ugh lol @Misanthropy:
The second event is at Glasgow, too, and that one is at a Debenhams. oops I missed that
I'm down south and would only go if it was the only way to get victini (which it isn't cause they're giving it away over wi fi) and celebi who we'll probably get on wi fi later on I doubt we'll get Celebi on Wi-Fi, the Shiny Beast Event will end not long before this tour starts, then Victini will be the Wi-Fi Event. I know they're different generation games, but I think it'd be unlikely to see two Wi-Fi Events happening at the same time. The only reason I can see them potentially still catering for HeartGold / SoulSilver Wi-Fi when Black / White come out is because of the Lock Capsule (which can be transferred to Black & White from HeartGold or SoulSilver to obtain TM95. However, they could just not give us this and make the TM available via a different method.
Like you, though, Misanthropy, I'd only go to this tour if it was the only way to get Victini or Celebi (but Victini makes no sense despite some websites such as this one, and Serebii suggesting the Liberty Pass would be distributed). Why, or more so, how would they distribute the Liberty Pass to people when this tour starts before Black & White even come out?
Celebi is still a possibility, but I reckon GAME or Toys R Us will snap up that event. Similar to the Shaymin Event and Arceus Event - we'll have demo booths of Black & White along with the Celebi download. I would be happy for Celebi to be available over Wi-Fi, but I think a real-life event is more likely. Could be wrong, but I don't care as long as we get it.. Lol. thanks for the reply
yes its been a while since I've actually got a pokemon by going to a event instead of getting it over wi fi, coincidentally the last one was celebi on gold in 2002 I forgot how good it feels to queue up and hand over your cartridge and watch them press a button and transfer it to your game but the wi fi events generate similar sort of excitement, I don't care as long as we get celebi, now they just need a reason in black and white for them to give out deoxys again wait it's going to glasgow twice and not even going to liverpool
nintendo I AM DISSAPOINT I think there should be more places to tour Pokemon but I might be going to Birmingham. Not one place is wales. NOT ONE PLACE. I am moar dissapoint than my sister, Shaymin. Why don't we get Celebi? >_<
So many places in Europe, and NOT THE UK?! I have Black in Japanese, so I'll only be coming to the Event if they have; The movie screening, Celebi downloads (even though I already have one) or Pokémon Center Shops like the US Tour. They wouldn't deny us the chance to get zorua We should still get Celebi, but I wouldn't be surprised if we don't. You can use the GTS to get Zorua, or just breed the Zoroark that we get from Crown Beast events. i live in newcastle, metrocentre is a bus journey away! ill be sure to go :D i'll probably go anyway. There'll be a lot of pokemon players there anyway, hopefully with their dses in hand so I'll get some battle action or whatever. Trades as well are good. Huzzah! It's the Newcastle event for me! I'll be bringing my Plat and Jap. White, and maybe English Black if I get it. Although it's kinda weird how most of the places get the tour AFTER the release...=/ does anybody know where exactly the pokemon black white tour for london westfield is, westfield is really big so anybody know where exactly?
and does anybody know what time it opens and closes thanks
