Here at The Pika Club, we like to try and keep you informed of things happening in the Pokemon world. So we present to you a quick list of important dates for the next month or so:
Sunday 8th February – Saturday 14th February: Shaymin available for download from Toy’s R Us stores in the United States… see Pokemon.com for more details.
Wednesday 11th February: New TCG (Trading Card Game) Set Pokemon Platinum is released
Saturday 14th February: Pokemon Movie 10: The Rise of Darkrai will air in the UK on Jetix channel at 11am (Repeated Sunday 15th at 4pm)
Sunday 15th February: Pokemon Movie 11: Giratina and the Sky Warrior will air in the United States on Cartoon Network – Check you TV guides for start times.
Sunday 8th March – Saturday 21st March: Special Regigigas available from Toys R Us in the United States. This is the Regigigas that when transferred to Pokemon Platinum, will be able to unlock Regice, Registeal and Regirock for you to capture. This is the ONLY Regigigas that will allow you to be able to do that (it’s the same one that was given away in Japan last year)
Sunday 22nd March: Pokemon Platinum for the DS is released in the United States.
Tuesday 31st March: Pokemon Movie 11: Giratina and the Sky Warrior will be released on DVD out in America according to Amazon.com. This date could change as there is no official word on its release yet
Currently we still don’t have a release date for the UK/European release of Pokemon Platinum on DS. A rumour going around suggests it’s released at the end of July, which is when several Pokemon games have been released over here in the past. If true, they I’d personally guess that it would be the 24th or 31st of July, but that’s only a guess on my part and not in anyway official. As soon as we get an official date, we’ll post it here.
