Emerald pre-orders start March 20, featuring the tin we all know about.

It seems like Nintendo is throwing a Brain Battle for everybody to have a promotion for the release of Emerald. It is open to everyone online. After registration (which you can do now), you are split up into one of 7 regions (I don't know how those are split up). From March 15-31, a timed Pokemon Recognition test will be held (and there are practice tests to help you). The best 8 of each frontier/region advance (while winning some downloads). They will have a timed "mock battle" test on April 14 where you are given an opponent Pokemon and you have to identify which Pokemon you should use to battle it. Then they are cut down to two finalists (who each receive a copy of Pokemon Box for GameCube) and there is another timed mock battle test on April 18. Then the fourteen finalists will hold a real battle with their Emerald teams on April 30 on top of the Space Needle in Seattle (two days, two nights, Emerald, and $400) and the winner gets to go to Pokepark in Nagoya (five days, five nights, and $1200).

Details: Pokemon Emerald Official Site

EDIT: Found official rules, so I elaborated on the process.

Yup! I pre-registered on that site. ^^ I am going to preorder Emerald so I can get the VIP ticket for the site that only lets people who have it get exclusive stuff. I hope I can atleast make it to the finals on that thing! *starts studying* I really wanna go to that theme park.

PROMOTION OPEN ONLY TO RESIDENTS OF THE U.S. (EXCLUDING PUERTO RICO) AND CANADA.
Sorry, only North Americans are eligible to enter.

Remember, all you have to know is identifying Pokemon (by its silhouette, probably) and type-matching.

well i sugned up for this 'tournament'.

so on next tuesday all i have to do is match pokemon with their correct type, bio., moves and sillouette. easy! and finding a pokemon to be another one? please! doesnt nintendo know that they gave out a type vs type chart for the FRLG preorder deal? and i really dont see how we are excpected to fight eachother with emerald version when they havent even come out yet! so ill take it we fight via net-battle or with our FRLGRuSas or they d-load the battle frontier into them. im a lil' confused @ the moment but as far as i know, this tourney is gonna be piece of cake. ill be seeing my final foe at the space needle.


ps- i also think that the grand prize is CRAP! i mean who wantts to go to some pokemn themed park? cant they just give out celebi to everyone like they should!!?!?!?!?

Oh man! I have to join this. I've already preordered Emerald from Walmart.com but I'll definately try this whole tournament thing out. Only problem is is that I'm at school and they have filters. Which means the emerald site is blocked off. Well I'll find a way.

More details from Official Rules (since not everybody reads them):
-Emerald is part of the prize of the top 14 people. The game is released on May 1, and the final battle is on April 30. Therefore, you get Emerald early (probably a week before the final battle) and before everybody else in your area.
-You can play if you are outside the US. If you just happen to win your prize is forfeited and another legal resident gets your spot.
-Also note that there will be a practice test similar to the actual Mar. 15-30 test that you can take as many times as you like, but you can take the real test only once.

since my browser (Safari
0 has google built in, itll be more easy than (thinks of analogy) trowing a pokeball at a pidgey with 1 HP :P

The practice quizzes will not be up until March 15. Remember, you don't have to take the actual quiz until March 30.

All three actual quizzes will be timed to the 1/100th of a second. Which leads me to a dilemna: Will a slow computer be able to advance?

I'm sure Nintendo is smarter than to use the exact same test for everybody. I know they change some of the questions for the TCG Professor Test each time you take it, so I'm sure they mix the questions up here too (at least for the first round; they probably could get away with using the same test for the other rounds)
