More information is on the site. But we pretty much know the rules by now. Also, it seems the Eevee distribution will be over normal Wireless, so available to spectators too.

For us Brits, they've increased the number of participants in the seniors division from 128 to 256. Top 4 go to Worlds, but 3rd and 4th place have to pay for transport and accommodation.

Cool. What would everyone evolve the Eevee into? Mine'd be Espeon.

 

[Iteru]

Urgh, Birmingham. If the location was closer to TWells then I would highly consider entering.

I'd probably keep my Eevee as it is. I wuv Eevee =3

 

[Lugnut]

Hmmm.... Nothing really that close to me. Vacation time?

 

[Kaze no Shiron]

Argh, from my city to San Francisco, it would take 8 hours by driving. Not sure if I should enter as it's not vacation time, and the place is far from me.

Yet again, Nintendo ignores Canadas very existance :/

There is a fanbase here. We'd like some shit too. [So glad they started giving things away on WiFi or else I'd have to pay out my asshole just to get what others get essentially for free]

Like, I don't even live in smallstown shitsville nowhere, I live in Toronto. Not once seen an official Pokémon event.

Rest assured that you guys in Canada have a better chance at events... Here in the Philippines? Only a hand full of people care about Pokemon... The best we can get in Wi-Fi events and some times we can't because some Wi-Fi location exclusive only...

Try living in Australia. I don't think Australia has ever hosted a pokemon event. And it probably never will.

Awesome one in NJ just one day before my birthday

 

[Suffen]

Canadian here though Seattle is amazingly close to Vancouver.

Anyone going to the Seattle one?
