The first Pokemon Video Game Regional Championship of the year was held in Seattle this weekend and we were there! Considering our current addiction to Heart Gold and Soul Silver we couldn’t pass up this opportunity. We talked to a few of the competitors and one of the organizers of the event to get some insight into the scene.

The Spotlight

Among the special events in addition to the championship battles was the opportunity to download a Shiny Eevee!

You can see video shot at the event, including samples of some of the game play on our YouTube Channel
