    Why Pokken Tournament is the best thing to happen to the series for over a decade

    The concept of the guys at Namco Bandai's Tekken coming together with The Pokemon Company/Nintendo to build a Pokemon version of Tekken is, on paper, so insane sounding that despite multiple indications over the past year that exactly that was happening, even the most open minded of us found it...

    Gotta Buy 'em All: Pokémon Monopoly Strikes Back

    To the curious, there was in fact a follow up to the original set featuring Gold and Silver Pokemon (cheap tokens of Marill, Cyndaquil, Bellossom, Totodile, Chikorita and, of course, Pikachu, included) as well as a genuinely hideous box. It also followed suit in using the anime artwork (though...

    Gotta Buy 'em All: Pokémon Monopoly Strikes Back

    Once upon a time, in the depths of the late 90s, Pokemon and Mr Monopoly had a mutually beneficial baby and it's name was, predictably, Monopoly: Pokemon Edition. It was fairly succesful, and has since gone on to be an actually quite expensive piece of Pokemon tat for collectors. Following on...

    2014 Pokémon Video Game & Trading Card Game Champions Crowned

    Andrew Estrada is Canadian. Japan's representation in Worlds is actually pretty unbalanced. Japan has a single Nationals competition to win entry to Worlds - though they do have other options, as they did for the VGC this year with an online tournament in XY. The US, on the other hand, has...

    Surprising Pokémon Announcement Next Week

    Other places are reporting the translation as being a "shocking" announcement, and using that as an indication that it might have something to do with the Detective Pikachu game concept that was highlighted last year in a Japanese documentary. If it were a game announcement, this is probably...

    Surprising Pokémon Announcement Next Week

    There's a wide range of guest stars in this, including the Japanese voice actor for Iris, another VA who doesn't seem to have any existing connection to Pokemon, the editor of Famitsu and a fashion model. I'd be surprised if it was a game, to be honest. It sounds more likely that it could be an...

    Pokémon Trading Card Game Online Coming To iPad

    I'd like to hope that it's coming to Android, but I'm pretty certain it's just an AIR app wrapper and is functionally the same beast as the desktop client. Which probably means it's as inefficient as the desktop client and unlikely to work well enough on the broad range of Android devices to be...

    Furious Fists TCG set advertised with specially produced anime clip

    We don't really cover the anime or the TCG here a lot at Pokecharms, so why not break that mould a little bit with a two for one deal? The new Furious Fists TCG set launched today, and to celebrate it, the Pokemon Company has uploaded a couple of new adverts that'll be playing out for it...

    Impossible/No Thanks 3DS Friend code in the Personal Details Area

    Just put in the one you're actually using. If you have any reason to keep your other friend code anywhere on your profile, just put it in your signature.

    OR/AS Mega Metagross

    It's not easy to make out, but you can identify the same shapes of the first characters and after that there's only one translation that makes sense: Megagross has Tough Claws. "Powers up moves that make direct contact by 33%".

    Super-Secret Base Revealed For Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire!

    I'd guarantee you can only access one foreign base in your game at a time, so it won't matter whether or not people are using the same spot - they'll never co-exist anyway. I like the idea of being able to share your base as "your Gym" (the wording of this feature - which was basically in the...

    PTC/PTCGO

    Because there aren't enough people who want to discuss it enough to justify forums specifically for it. Feel free to discuss it as much as you like in the general Pokemon Chat forum. I actually play and collect the cards myself, so I will happily join in - but it's just not got the amount of...

    Another New Pokémon Omega Ruby & Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Trailer Released

    The storyline does focus on Magma wanting to increase the world's landmass, and Aqua wanting to rise the oceans: "While traversing the Hoenn region, players will encounter two evil organizations with opposing aims that are locked in struggle. In Pokémon Omega Ruby, Maxie leads Team Magma as it...

    E3 2014 - The Mega Thread

    EA A lot of EA's content is very much not this year. And for what there is, this year, it's primarily sports. A fairly disappointing conference as a result, but some exciting things coming in the future nonetheless: EA kicked things off with a look into the development of Star Wars...

    E3 2014 - The Mega Thread

    Alright then. Microsoft, EA, Ubisoft and Sony are all down, so let's recap: Microsoft True to Phil Spencer's word, this conference was a solid 90 minutes of absolutely nothing other than upcoming games. Hell, add another half an hour on for Major Nelson's pre-show beforehand, because during...

    E3 2014 - The Mega Thread

    E3 2014 - The Mega Thread

    Separate from my main predictions, there is a rumour from what purports to be the setting up of Nintendo's booths on the show floor that there will be a game/app called 'Mario Maker' both revealed at the show and playable. From the image, it seems to be an app for making Mario game levels. This...
