They're actually doing events here. O_O I might just go.

Thn again... I don't really want to partake in any of the activities. Or tease myself with Battle Revolution (which I will never be able to own since I'm not getting a Wii for just one game). And I can't stand little kids, and I know there will be swarms of them. And I really hope it's not like the R/B/Y event to get mew, where you have to beat 5 trainers to get mew. If that's the case I'm screwed, because my pokemon area only about level 27. And I hate buses, I'll need to get 4 buses there an back.

So... I'm undecided whether I'll go or not. Am I really that fussed about an unobtainable pokemon?

...yes...

Buses arent bad.

Also, if it is like the UK Aura Mew events last year then they'll just give you it and you dont have to do anything special.

I hope that's the case.

Yeah I can handle buses. I just don't like them. XD

I should feel lucky that there's one so close by so I won't complain any more :x

Nope, none near me, or in Lincolnshire at all by the looks of things :(

Oh well, I'll just get one off the WFC so it's no great worry!

I went to my local Woolworths yesterday to buy Ice Cream and I asked why there wasn't one here and apparently they chose the locations based on sales of Diamond and Pearl in Woolworths. But If they'd taken into account other places that sold the games I'd be getting Darkrai.

*Sits on Picket line planning to stop everyone else getting Darkrai if I can't*

Ummm Space Guard, you can't get Darkrai on WiFi. Unless you mean the subject I brought up with the whole Island thing... Anyways, for those who can't get RoT and SR darkrai, that blows since every toys r us had it. Screw Woolworths, go with toys r us and have every one give em out! BUT REMEMBER I ONLY HAVE 1 SO... try and go people. :P

erh? You mean I can't ask for someone to trade the event to me for another Pokémon? You know, like a NORMAL trade. I did that to get the latest japanese event, and will do the same for this one. It's annoying that there are only a select few stores doing this event as there are literally hundreds of Woolworths around the country. That's two times Woolwroths have shot themselves in the foot (The other time is a Star Wars Collecting based issue, yes you can offically call me a geek :p )

Oh. I though you meant GTS. The Ribbon on it prevents it from being traded there. Otherwise, your good!

Isn't Beckton in london...?
milton keyens is far from London, why not go bromley instead, that's in-between them.
Just suggesting, it's up to you.

I'm surprised that Bexleyhealth and Bromley had one of the most sales, and funny enough they are so close to me. Did I brought 1000 copies jkjk

Apparently it's english language versions, so yes it does.
