Title: Pokemon at Kumoricon 2012~
Post by: lady_lapras on August 14, 2012, 10:53:10 am: Hey all! I just wanted to inform everyone that there will be organized events for Pokemon this year at Kumoricon! We'll be running tournaments for the card game and the video game all weekend! We're going to have lots of other fun stuff going on too! Like a photo booth where you can get your picture taken with a life-size version of your favorite Unova Pokemon :D

So make sure you bring your deck and ds game so you can be part of the excitement!

Are the rules for the tournaments decided yet?

Post by: QElderHell on August 30, 2012, 04:01:45 pm: My understanding is that the TCG tournaments will be unlimited. Are you familiar with tournament structure?

Post by: lady_lapras on August 31, 2012, 10:33:51 pm: Most of the events we have for the TCG will be unlimited (which means any deck made of any 60 cards, no matter how old). However, if enough people show up with modified legal decks we can hold tournaments for those players as well :)
