Go See The Pokémon Mall Tour!
Pokémon Black and White are due in stores on March 6 in the US, but American gamers can get a sneak peek at the Nintendo DS titles if they're lucky enough to live near one of the malls that the national tour will be visiting! The 14-city tour kicks off on February 5, a full month before the launch of the game, and will feature more than just the opportunity to demo the game. You can attend a free screening of the new Pokémon feature, Pokémon-Zoroark: Master of Illusions at the mall's movie theater, meet and greet the new starters, Snivy, Tepig and Oshawott, participate in a scavenger hunt, get your hands on the character Celebi at the mall's GameStop, and try your luck at contests to win prizes!
"The anticipation for Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version has been palpable, and we are eager to introduce these fantastic new games to America," said J.C. Smith, The Pokémon Company International's director of Marketing. "We cannot wait to hit the road and give Pokémon fans an up-close and personal look at an all-new world of Pokémon in a fun, totally immersive environment."
