VGC ’13 European Events in May and June

Unfortunately, we still do not have details on Europe’s qualification method for the 2013 Pokemon World Championships in Vancouver. However, Lee P. (Osirus) was able to get a little bit of information from TPCi’s support team for Europe’s information-starved players.

Hey Lee,

We appreciate your interest in the Play! Pokémon Video Game Championship Series. We are still finalizing our European event schedule and without firm dates and locations I cannot recommend you book travel accommodations. We are getting very close though to being ready and when we have finalized all of our details we will make sure to announce it as soon as we can.

What I can inform you though is that we will be holding more than one European event and that they will be taking place sometime in the months of May and June. Please continue to stay tuned to Pokémon.com for more details.

As we previously learned, the top 16 European players on the Championship Points leaderboards will earn an invite to the World Championships. Whether the events mentioned in this e-mail will be National or Regional events remains to be seen.
