The Pokémon World Championships (PWC) 2012 is over! And, yes, no crap-throwing dudes this time around. For the TCG Championships, Shugo Itagaki (Juniors Division), Chase Moloney (Seniors Division), and Igor Costa (Masters Division) all made it to the top and got crowned as 2012 TCG champs! For the Video Game Championships, Abram Burrows, Toler Webb, and Ray Rizzo (from the Juniors, Seniors and Masters, respectively) won the tournament . Rizzo sounds familiar? Dude, he's won the competition for three years now! Both the TCG and video game final matches were streamed live, a first for the franchise.
Suck my Pokéballs, Ketchum. |
On a side note, Worlds '13'll be in Vancouver! It's gonna be the first time the event will be held outside the States. Epic!
Also, the franchise's official Japanese website finally revealed Plasma Gale, an all-new line of playable TCG cards. It features Pokémon owned by Team Plasma with the Plasma logo behind its moves (kinda cool, if you ask me). Crobat, Klinklang, Skarmory (whut?) and Beartic are some of the Pokémon that'll be in the set. Oh, i forgot to mention Lugia. Yes, LUGIA.
Is this even real life?! |
Next up, Genesect. This odd Transformer's Optimus Prime and Mewtwo's love child's moves, based on a leaked CoroCoro mag page (hooray!) are Magnet Bomb, Signal Beam, Hyper Beam, and its Judgement-like signature pwner, Techno Blast (sounds like a Skrillex track for me).
Oh, Optimus. You so promiscuous. |
Aaand last but not the least is Vic Mignona. Who dat, you ask? Go away and screw yourself. Kidding. Mignona is a well-known voice actor, probably best known for giving life to Fullmetal Alchemist's Edward Elric through his epicsauce dubbing skuhllz. Anyway, he has announced on his pretty dope Twitter that he just finished dubbing a lead role in the upcoming Pokémon movie. Who's he gonna be? No one knows. Yet.
Also, he's still waiting for the third Pokémon movie to come out. |
Well, that's it for now. Live long and catch 'em all! Stay tuned for more deets, guys! Later!
