The Pokémon World Championships are being streamed online and you can watch in the below player. What a time to be alive! It begins at 9AM EST which is half an hour from now!
UPDATE: The first major announcement is the release of Pokkén Tournament for the Nintendo Wii U. New character Pikachu Libre confirmed, coming Spring 2016
<3 PJ
I’m dying ….I’m seriously dying from laughter!!! Y do we do this to ourselves ? hahahaha
We never learn.
You would think after falling for “groundbreaking game announcement” we would’ve all learned… Nope.
We will do it again next time…so we’ve got that to look forward to.
Hopefully next time they call it “heartshattering” but we’ll be prepared to call it that anyways.
Honestly man, f*ck GF with this Pokken crap. I’m so upset right now. I shoulda known lol
Why in the world would Masuda hold those poor Japanese folks from sleeping for THIS CRAP?
Something doesn’t add up here, or maybe we’re just overthinking things.
It’s either Closing Ceremony or we have to re-evaluate the entire situation. I don’t wanna!
There could still be a main game reveal, right? :/
At this point…….who the hell knos……..this is just….hahahaha
If this is it, I’m not too disappointed. They never reveal what we expect them to
This is very true lol
Do I even need to mention Nintendo at E3? They gave us nothing we asked for lol. Still pisses me off
E3 was a little different tho. We weren’t really expecting a new game from that like we were from this lol
I was expecting AC wiiU and then….amiibo festival >:(
Yeah……yeah……*sigh* lol
Who the hells idea was it to render all of the villagers in HD graphics and then give us some amiibo shit instead of a real game!? Hopefully after that extremely negative backlash they pump one out before the NX kills the wiiu
I gotcha I gotcha lol
There’s still a chance. I don’t know what that chance is. I don’t know anything anymore.
I just seems past time to reveal a main game for spring/early summer. And I don’t want to wait till next fall 🙁
But it just doesn’t make sense! They’re going to reveal the new Pokemon next month…without a game?
Exactly! Unless they reveal the game right before the next corocoro..? But they should just do it here unless we get another Pokemon direct
Game Freak is an asshole. What do expect? lol
Exactly! That makes no sense. If they dont reveal it this weekend then I have no clue what theyre doing lol
I guess they’ll just leave those Pokemon sitting around on the internet for fan fictions until 2016, because that’s something they would do. This is just odd.
Did we have confirmation of D/P when we were first introduced to munchlax, bonsly, and buizel?
Well not officially, but in the Manaphy movie there was an easter egg where Team Rocket mentioned “Diamonds and Pearls”. Fans knew what was up at that point.
D/P was such a slow burn tho. They’re not gonna wait the same amount of time they did for this game whatever it is lol
Munchlax was revealed in May 2004 with D/P releasing in September 2006. The latter two were revealed sometime between then and might’ve even appeared in XD: Gale of Darkness or Dash.
Honestly I so wanna go on a rant right now but I cant because I cant even think straight from how upset I am. Theyre better be something towards the end lol
It’s going to be Sunday or nothing.
How’s that third eye helping you, Xatu? xD
Hahahahahahahahaha!
It’s lied to me!
“It’s lied to me!”
Eh, I’m still going to be watching this all day. I started a Crystal save file yesterday so I’ll be playing that as well.
I wonder what those secrets are…
Pokken tournament stuff……..
Ok so there r secret announcements at 130……….
Edit: oh…….nevermind
Uh oh, secrets?? PLEASE GF, PLEASE, I’M BEGGIN YOU.
It’s Pokken………they already said it’s the live screening of it…….*sigh*
*sigh*
Yup…..lol
Secrets: special edition pikachu amiibo! Only 100 copies produced! 😀
Poor Ohmori, he comes to his first World Championships and gets no fanfare.
Or does he?
Did they say for sure that the second secret is also Pokken or is it just the 1:30 time? I think it’s prolly just Pokken….
Both 1:30 and 3:30 are secrets. It didn’t say “Pokken Secret” or anything, but it probably is.
The announcers said shortly after the ceremony that it’s Pokken. They mentioned the 1:30 time, but I was just checking bc I didn’t hear them talk about the 3:30 secret
Some guy is trying to tell me Nintendo can’t make Pokemon amiibos without Gamefreaks approval. Thats not true, right? I mean they’re Nintendo characters, GF just makes the games.
Are you over at IGN? I see you there all the time 😉
Haha yes I am. I’m not sure why I go there, people are so annoying and immature there. I mainly just follow their Marvel news.
This is just a guy commenting? Pretty sure he doesn’t kno what he’s talking about. If Nintendo had to get permission every time they made an amiibo they’d have so many hoops to go through to get a hold of them and such. I imagine it’s part of their contracts lol
Nintendo owns publishing rights to all of their properties so I don’t see why it would be a problem.
Yeah ur definitely right
Idk why they chose Shady to commentate, I love the guy but.. his Pokemon knowledge isn’t exactly “on fleek” haha
Oh, that’s who he is. I didn’t put that together.
Dang some of you guys really don’t know Shady? Pretty popular poketuber out there right now.
OMG u used “on fleek” hahaha
just had to xD
Anyone still here? This match could be exciting.
Still here, and very hyped for the battles haha
Interesting to see Aurorus, it’s one of my favorite Pokemon. Never thought I’d see a competitive one.
Agreed, I really like Aurorus as well. Aurorus is a pretty bold choice too, since it definitely fares decently against potential Mega Mences but it heavily needs support
I’m watching for the guy on the left with purple shirt <3
I have a feeling 60% of his subscribers are girls. I have no idea why that would be.
Where can I subscribe this hot piece?

Have fun.
Thanks, i’ll have so much fun
Yep 🙂 interesting battle
That Hyper Voice one-shotted a Mega Mawile and a Heatran.. Ouch
I’d like to point out that this is the first time they’ve featured a spinoff game at Worlds. Perhaps they’ll also have a first by announcing the game in the Closing Ceremony. If they don’t, what do you guys think will happen in the coming months?
At this point I’m willing to bet we get a Pokemon Direct in the coming weeks and that’ll b that.
I want news about blobby
It will be here by September 10-13 for sure. That will also be exciting due to the iPhone 6S announcement around that time!
That Aurorus was hype af.
Double Paralysis at the beginning though, that must have felt terrible.
But knocking out all of those Pokemon in 1-2 hits made up for it in the second round lol.
So apparently the 1:30 time slot is when the Pokken Tournament…tournament…starts. Nobody knows what’s happening at 3:30.
Man…they talk for so long. I want to see some battles…
