Rob i knew what you looked like as i met you at the vgc. Looking forward to tomorrow, happy days.
I may be there...
So, Dan Dan and I were at Oxford Street today.
Aside from some battles, meeting other PokéNerds and downloading an Arceus, a fun little glitch caused the distribution machine to regularly pump out other random Japanese Event Pokés.

What a day!
Posting my 4000th post to say I concur with the above poster! It was a bit of a surprise to say the least... I only managed to get the Arceus, Eevee, Surfing Pikachu and Heatran out of the list Zy posted, but it was a lot more than I was expecting!
The whole place was overflowing with Pokenerds, so much so that the security inside the shop were forcing us outside! That was cool with me though, since I could smoke and pokemon at the same time. I watched a few battles, there was a multi battle going on between some people from Serebii and PKMN.net, but I couldn't find/recognize any Smogoners there. I really should have brought a sign or something.
Anyway, off to RNG for my flawless Eruption Heatran mwuahahaha

Sure, no problem, although I'm without an AR, so find a cloner and you can let loose!
There were rumors of a Mewtwo, Mew and Breloom floating around which turned out to be incorrect.
Pretty fun watching everybody scream "OH WHATS THIS"
But indeed - one hell of a day. Packed inside.
Apparantly Brighton's event had a rogue machine that was spewing Legendary Birds, but we don't have evidence of that.

None of that in Belfast, sadly. But still a kickass day. ROFLstomped a 12-year old who used dragons exclusively (Agility Empoleon gogogo!), then had my ass handed to me by an 18-year-old chick, who was clearly a serious competitive player. I think I'm in love.
Argh, I cant belive I missed that!
I went out for lunch and found out when I got back that all these events where everywhere.
Darn, missed out on alot.
Still, a fun day, battled alot, beat a few uber teams, met some cool peeps.
And the balloon pokemon made me laugh =).

wnet today i had landmin painted onto my hand and got an addement arcus wich is relively useless scince i cant eve it. i got my new action reply today shame it ownt work on the dsi. i managed to try some of my pokemon away to beter homes.
Yeah, they're not real events. I started questioning that when the Octillery came around.
The Heatran technically shouldn't have a wonder card either. But hey. If you're still interested, just send me a PM.
I'm pretty sure they're safe, and they look more or less the like the real thing. Knowing me they'll probably just sit in the PC collecting dust.
but hey - free Pokémon, who's complaining, lol?
Is that possible?
There is a 'get from friend' option or the 'get from wireless' option where the Arceus was received from. The odd wondercards came from the 'get from wireless' option.
I guess you could set something up with a laptop that worked the same as the Nintendo wireless, but what a load of effort to hang around giving out fake wondercards!
I might try hit sheffield myself (as recently moved back to Leeds)....if not I might have to attend Liverpool or Newcastle
Oh my God I fell in love today too. This super amazingly cute girl and me face to face playing HeartGold (saving Silver for release day ;)) it was perfect. Well, it would have been perfect if I talked to her, but yano.
Pretty happy with my Arceus, (lucky I dug up a Draco Plate 2 days ago searching for Red Shards O_O) but I don't get why GAME are handing out figures for "pre-ordering" the games. It didn't cost anything to preorder so essentially I have my Arceus figure for free and I can just go to a different shop to buy it on release day (hopefully picking up a Lugia figure while I'm at it :D)
But yeah Belfast was okay, I didn't battle or anything, once my one true love left the store I had to go too, I was insanely tempted to get my face painted and I just couldn't let that happen. (Honestly though the only reason I'm posting this is on the off chance she reads this and agrees to marry me. They really need more events, it's the only time I get out of the house :P).
