Only 2 Leagues left for 2016!

Come join us on Sat Dec 10 and Dec 17 for some Christmas Pokemon fun!

We'll have a Pokemon themed sweater contest. Come to league wearing a Pokemon theme sweater and be entered to win a cool door prize!

And build a Christmas themed Pokemon deck to play in the Christmas tournament (that runs both weekends)! Let your creativity guide you! What Pokemon can you use? Well, Christmas colors are red and green - so how about grass and fire types? Water types would work as well. Charizard deck could be interesting. Or Venasaur. There's also Fairy and even Lightning. Here are the guidelines to keep in mind:

• 60 card deck
• No limit format - this means ALL cards are legal - yes, even Base set to the latest Sun and Moon that just came out. Use your creativity and build your dream deck without any limits. No proxies - all cards must be authentic Pokemon cards (this also means no Championship cards)
• Entry fee: $5
• Prizes will be based on number of registered players.
• Check in: 2 to 2:30pm
• First round should start about 3pm

If there are enough video gamers, we can also offer up a VG version of the Christmas tournament.

Also, I invite you to bring baked goods to share. T'is the season for sharing after all.

And keep in mind all these great benefits coming to League:

• Players w/ a registered Poke ID can earn an official League promo free of charge just for playing a complete game. And I just received the latest promo card that will be available this Sat - Volcanion!
• Door prizes! Kids 12 years and younger can register to win a door prize!
• Tournaments w/ small entry fees to win cool Pokemon products
• Learn the rules of the game and how to build a deck
• Trade Pokemon cards or video game characters with other players
• Playtest!
• You can borrow decks, dice, energies and playmats. Just sign them out and return them before you leave.

And remember, the Fantastic Store is selling Roaring Skies packs at a great discount. Only $4.11 for a chance to pull a Shaymin EX! Woo hoo!

Our final League Challenge of the year will be run on Dec 17 with check-in opening at 1pm. Preregister here.

See ya at League!
