The Nintendo UK Facebook page has recently updated with details of an upcoming Pokémon Event in the UK. The event kicks off for UK fans this Saturday in Guildford and then travels over the country making stops at various locations. Sadly, according to the schedule Pokémon X & Pokémon Y aren’t set to make an appearance, but there’s still a chance of them showing up at the events in some form. Don’t expect a demo though! Details are as follows:

The Facebook page says: The event will have three ‘zones’ aimed at battling, gaming and general fun as well as a Pokémon Training Centre and a lounge where you can kick back and watch some of your favourite Pokémon episodes. So whether you’re a fan of the games, the TV series or even if you’re brand new to Pokémon, there’s something for everyone. So it could be a lot of fun and a great place to meet new Pokémon fans! There’s a possibility I’ll be attending the Bournemouth event, so let me know if you’re planning to attend!
