Done, thanks. Might as well put everything, but it's not too hard to click a link.

Ew I'm not going to New Jersey.

I don't really care to much for the VGC's anyways.

You forgot the J. Anyways I may go to the one in DC.

MultiWishMaker · #6 April 19, 2011, 05:24:49 PM

I'm actually going to the one in San Jose next month, my friend Josh actually thinks he's going to win it all as he claims, but I highly doubt it.... XD

June 4th is the exact day we go on holiday. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Sweet! There is finally a tournament that is in Virginia! I might be able to go to it but I'm afraid there will be a lot of people at it and I would lose and then the trip would be a waste of time and gas (<---For the car). I might talk my parents into going on vacation to D.C. and then it wouldn't be a waste if I lose. Talk to start training and begging! XD

Birmingham again? Hrrm...

Maybe I can make it. I hope so. Everything Nintendo/Pokémon related's always so far away from me... I'll prepare a team anyway, even if I can't come!

Also, it seems Game Freak have picked up on a glitch with this rule:
"Pokémon cannot use the move Sky Drop during battle"

I don't think I could go now to DC although my family went there in October for my brother soccer team tournament and didn't play. So for my family soccer first over Pokemon although I hate Soccer.

The Spirit of Time · #11 April 22, 2011, 06:07:42 AM

I would like to participate in such a tournament.

Turtwig · #12 April 22, 2011, 05:51:41 PM

Oh come on...no VGC at the mall of America. T__T

I'm considering going to the Birmingham event, never been to one of these events. Are they fun? And another question, what age group normally goes to them? Don't want to be the only 19yr old in the tourney.
