VGC World Championships Begin Today

Countless challengers have gathered in Kona, Hawaii to compete in this year’s Video Game World Championships which begin today with the Last Chance Qualifier. For many trainers, this single elimination, best-of-3 tournament will be their last chance to participate in the 2012 Video Game Championships season with the top four trainers that grind through moving on to Worlds proper. Follow along with the Worlds schedule to see when the event you’re focused on will take place (all times are listed in Hawaii-Aleutian Time which is GMT-10 or 3 hours before PDT and 6 hours before EDT).

Make sure you follow along with The Pokémon Company International’s official website for information about the events from the source. For our part, Nugget Bridge will be doing up-to-the-minute updates on how players are doing via our Twitter. We’ll also be hosting livestreams of featured battles on our TwitchTV page (or if that fails, keep our backup UStream in mind). We’ll also have people commenting on the action from home on our forums – currently the most active VGC community on the web! Our YouTube will also be filled with videos after the competiton ends, and of course our site will have articles for you to read with accounts of how the weekend went.

Good luck to all of the trainers participating this weekend, and stay tuned to Nugget Bridge for the best in VGC Worlds coverage!
