Hey guys, remember watching last year's TSG Pokémon Marathon in December? Well, I'm here to let yall know were going to be having another Pokémon marathon this year in December again. Unfortunatley, we didnt catch all 491 legit Pokémon last year. But this time, we're more than likely to catch all 493 Pokemon this year. With the help of some new games we're adding in the marathon.
You can definitely expect some awesome commentators and gamers. All of the hype for this marathon has been going on since the end of the last Pokethon. And it's building up everyday once it starts; especially during other marathons we've had this year.
Anyway, here's some of the info I bet your curious to know now. The games were planning to play to catch them all are:
Pokémon FireRed
Pokemon LeafGreen
Pokemon HearGold (imported)
Pokemon SoulSilver (imported)
Pokemon Ruby
Pokemon Sapphire
Pokemon Emerald *
Pokemon Diamond
Pokemon Pearl
Pokemon Platinum *
Unfortunatley, we won't be bringing back Pokemon Colosseum or XD: Gale of Darkness back to the marathon this year. With HG and SS in our hands, it's not really necessary to have those games played this time.
Britt (the founder of TSG) has yet to tell us who is playing/commentating during the marathon. But well be finding out once the Resident Evil marathon is over most likely. And if yall may have any questions then feel free to ask.
Just don't worry about the event Pokémon; we basically got all of them covered. Check this out if you want to know fyi. Mostly all of these events are covered by one of our TSG gamers
