Section:

For all your Arceus needs, along with a preview of Heart Gold and Soul Silver!

This news item is more than 45 days old. Updates are unlikely and newer information may already be available.

So you want to be a Pokemon Master?

In the two weeks running up to the launch of Pokémon Heart Gold & Soul Silver, GAME will be hosting events in selected stores.

You'll be the first to play Heart Gold & Soul Silver, meet other Pokémon fans to trade, collect and battle to determine who is the best trainer. And if that weren't enough there'll be face painting and balloon modelling in selected stores and a Pokémon expert to give you hints and tips - who knows he may accept a challenge or two!

Best is yet to come! You'll have the chance to download the Mighty Arceus to your copy of Pokémon Diamond, Pokémon Pearl & Pokémon Platinum! Don't forget to bring your DS lite, DSi or DSi XL with you.

Umby2000 on Tue 02 Mar 2010 14:51:35 UTC.
I hope there's more locations yet to be announced as this seems hardly fair. During last year's Shaymin event there were far more locations for an, arguably, less sought after Pokemon. Sheesh. And no, I'm not bitter just because the nearest place is Newcastle/Gateshead. =P
The Collector on Tue 02 Mar 2010 16:39:47 UTC.

ArcanineOod on Fri 05 Mar 2010 20:17:51 UTC.
Anyone else peeved at the fact the Reading event is on the same day as the Reading Half Marathon, meaning it'll be busy, crowded and the roads in Reading town centre will be closed?
Daaaaaarn.
Voltorb2005 on Fri 05 Mar 2010 22:30:06 UTC.
