Live Updates from the VGC ’15 North American Winter Regionals
The first Regional Championships in North America using the new format are upon us. Europe gave us a look at the metagame last weekend in The Netherlands, but we’re going to see four times as many events today and tomorrow as players face off in Oregon, California, Missouri, and Virginia. If you haven’t already, don’t forget to look at our preview to see who you should be watching out for at each location!
The most exciting news about this set of Regional Championships is that The Pokémon Company International will be streaming them officially for the first time. Scott Glaza (Scott) and Evan Latt (plaid) will be broadcasting live from St. Charles, Missouri alongside TCG commentators Kyle Sucevich (Pooka) and Joshua Wittenkeller (TheJWittz). Additionally, we’ll have a Nugget Bridge stream from Lancaster, California with Duy Ha (Duy) on the mic so you can switch between the two during downtime. This would be a great time to get introduced to Multitwitch! The schedule for Missouri is as follows:
Saturday, February 14
- 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. : Pokémon TCG
- 2:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. : Pokémon video game
- 6 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. : Pokémon TCG
Sunday, February 15
- 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. : Pokémon video game
- 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. : Pokémon TCG
We’ll also have updates on our Twitter account throughout the weekend as we usually do. Remember to follow @nuggetbridge and keep an eye on the #PlayPokemon hashtag for news!
