Pokémon Village Fête Summer Roadshow!

by the Pocket World team

Bored on your Summer holidays? Well not any more! There’s a fantastic Pokémon event coming to a town near you over the next few weeks.

Pokémon Village Fête Summer Roadshow!FeteNintendo and The Pokémon Company have joined forces to create the Pokémon Village Fête – a place where all the goodness of the Pokémon world comes together to celebrate Pokémon gaming, Pokémon movies and Pokémon Trading Card Game!

These free events are going to be a family favourite this Summer – treat yourself to a trip through the magical land of Pokémon. Play the very latest videogames for Nintendo DS and Wii, watch a screening of the 11th Pokémon movie – Pokémon: Giratina and the Sky Warrior, and discover the colossal Regigigas for yourself. You can receive the 486th Pokémon directly in your Diamond, Pearl or Platinum games if you take them along. Once this special Pokémon has been added to your party you can then unlock the locations of Registeel, Regice and Regirock! Find our more about this unique download at regigigas.nintendo.co.uk!

That not enough for you? Well how about getting your face painted like a Pokémon? Want more? Have your photo taken with the stars of Pokémon or get a balloon Pokémon made especially for you!

If you’re a Pokémon beginner, you can enrol yourself in the ‘Pokémon Training Academy’ where experts will teach you the important vital skills essential to become a successful Pokémon Trainer. Once trained up you can go on to enter the ‘Challenge Zone’ where you can battle other Pokémon Trainers using Diamond, Pearl or Platinum. Then take your best Pokémon and transfer them for big screen battles on Pokémon Battle Revolution for Wii.

The Pokémon Village Fête will also give all families the chance to win a family holiday to a Haven holiday park during March, April or May 2010 – so grab mum and dad and get them down to the following places this Summertime…

    • Matthew said:

      Why is there none in WALES!!!! its really annoying because we only got the Shaymin for diamond and pearl and what so that means we aren’t allowed a platinum event now? WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SEARCH FOR GIRATINA????????
