Pokkén Tournament
This week, a second trademark for Pokkén Tournament was registered in Europe, now mentionning NFC-enabled device and with the logo of the game. Unfortunately, it’s hard to conclude anything based on this kind of trademark alone, so fans will definitely have to be more patient before finding if/when/how Pokkén Tournament will officially head outside Japan (that being said, we do know that locatests will/are being run in the United States).
Battle Competiton
Don’t forget: battles for the Pikachu Cup started today!
Also, the entry gift for the CoroCoro Challenge (announced last week) was revealed: a Masterball.
