  Pokemon TCG

Future Pokemon events

• EOI has been posted
• 5 responses
  • Doesn't seem to be enough interest in Pokemon to run major events such as prereleases and tournaments
  • We may try to run a multi-TCG event at some point to see if there is interest, as well as introduce people to those games in a more casual environment
• The Smaller events we have been running (casual pokemon days) haven't been getting enough attendance to warrant running them
• Judging by the EOI and that attendance, it would be difficult to justify running larger events for the game

• This shouldn't be an issue (in theory) for an event that feature's multiple TCGs, or it should less of a problem.

  Pokemon Decks

• Chris is picking up some of the decks

  • regi deck
  • Gardevoir deck
• May eventually replace them, but don't have the time right now
