Pokemon Black and White Tour to Take Place in American Malls
Similar to the "Journey Across America" tours Nintendo used to hold, where Event Items could be transfered to the GBA games, a tour promoting Pokemon Black and White is to be held between February and March in malls across America. Not only will these tours feature early playable demos of Pokemon Black and White, scavenger hunts, purchasable Pokemon merchandise, contests, and prizes, but a free screening of the new Pokemon movie, "Master of Illusions:Zoroark" will be shown in the theaters of the malls which act as tour stops. This would make Master of Illusions:Zoroark the first Pokemon movie to be viewable in a North American theater since Pokemon Heroes in May of 2003, 8 years ago!
The tour will encompass 14 cities, beginning on the 5th of February and ending on March 20th. The cities and their respective tour dates are as follows: February 5th-6th Seattle, WA (Westfield Southcenter, Seattle, WA) Cleveland, OH (Westfield SouthPark, Strongsville, OH) February 12th-13th San Jose, CA (Westfield Oakridge, San Jose, CA) Memphis, TN (Wolfchase Galleria, Memphis, TN) February 19th-20th Los Angeles, CA (Westfield Santa Anita, Arcadia, CA) Indianapolis, IN (Castleton Square, Indianapolis, IN) February 26th-27th Denver, CO (Town Center at Aurora, Aurora, CO) Philadelphia, PA (Franklin Mills, Philadelphia, PA) March 5th-6th New York, NY (Westfield Garden State Plaza, Paramus, NJ) (Actually Friday and Saturday, March 4th and 5th) Minneapolis, MN (Mall of America®, Bloomington, MN) March 12th-13th Dallas, TX (Grapevine Mills, Grapevine, TX) Atlanta, GA (Discover Mills, Lawrenceville, GA) March 19th-20th Phoenix, AZ (Arizona Mills, Tempe, AZ) Jacksonville, FL (Orange Park Mall, Orange Park, FL) Source(s): [ http://www.pokemon.com/us/news/bw_mall_tour-2011-01-10/ ] Last edited by AuraKshatriya; January 11, 2011 at 05:51:25 PM. |

Oh well, at least I was able to remove that line from my signature that had been there for a really long time:

Given that they said the Zoroark movie would premiere on Cartoon Network, I'm still a little confused. Too bad they won't keep it in theaters, though. Last edited by Luxray13579; January 15, 2011 at 09:37:49 PM. |

Seriously though, I'm really glad that they're satisfying their huge fans with such interactive events. This also means that more English names will be revealed, so I'm starting to feel pretty excited. For the members who are going, I hope that you will have fun over there. That would be really nice of you. |

I'd try to go to the one in Indianapolis, but 8/9 hours is a pretty long drive, and I don't know if it'd be that worth it... Quote:
