PE2K at Pokemon TCG National Championships!
-06/19/07-

I'll be at the Pokemon TCG National Championships next month, which will be held during July 7-8 at the Origins International Game Expo in Columbus, Ohio. Also, the Pokemon TCG North American Professor Cup will also be held there on July 6th, a tournament exclusively for Pokemon Professors (judges). I'll actually be there before the tournament on the first day of the Origins International Game Expo on July 4th. There's plenty of other game events there, so I'm looking forward to checking that out as well. If you're going to Nationals, I'll see you there!

Check back here on PE2K for full coverage of the Pokemon TCG National Championships, the North American Professor Cup, and a look of the other events that Origins has to offer as well!
