Manchester Tournament #4 This Weekend

There’s less than a week to go until the fourth Manchester Tournament starts up! A collaboration between Nintendo, gamerbase at HMV, and the local Pokemon community, it’s the largest non-VGC Pokemon tournament in the country. The ruleset will mirror that of this year’s Video Game Championships and the prizes include Nintendo 3DS systems, Pokemon games, and HMV vouchers as well as a very elegant trophy. If you haven’t yet, head right on over to the forum thread to read the rules and sign up at the link!

We’re also proud to announce that we’ll be partnering up with the good folks running it to provide live coverage of the event. Follow @nuggetbridge on Twitter for live updates on how your favourite British Pokemon trainers are doing throughout the day. We’ll continue the coverage into the next week with tournament reports and interviews.
