Holy shit, all the "FAIL!"s and "Rape!"s and "Guys, I think Groudon is a Rock/Dragon type"s were annoying as fuck.

And it is sort of surprising that those were the Finals. I could probably beat Fish with a gimmick team.

Just regional finals, mind you.
It'll be interesting to see what will go down in the world finals in August.

Cute! I hoped bottom left would win though, since he had fewer legendaries.

I too was hoping the team with the Ludicolo would win. I'm a little surprised it went to finals though, I was expecting a pretty much identical match to the senior division finals

Well, they are allowed to bring 6 and use 4.
Maybe the other two picked up the slack.

Christ I could probably beat all of these guys without even using legendaries.

It's too bad I don't have money to travel or the desire to even try.

Perhaps. Are you thinking in terms of 4vs4 doubles though.
If all you've got is experience with 6vs6 singles, you might have more trouble than you would anticipate.
Hypothetically speaking, of course.

Why would I want to go to Japan? I really don't care about a lot of the culture; the music and the food and the fashion and whatever else you can think of. I also don't speak Japanese, so it would just be really confusing with no point.

I dunno. Looks like they changed it, anyways. Now it's a trip for four to Tokyo, New York, or Oahu, including airfare and 6-day/5-night accommodations for winning the World Championship.
Along with a special custom DSi (not this one).

And "Additional Pokémon items" That's kind of vague.
Oh, and I guess you get an invitation complete with airfare and hotel booking to the 2011 World Championships.

Imagine if they then won the Nationals and got to go to the World Championship.
That would just make their day.

Watching these make me jealous. I wish I had known about it early enough to prepare a team. I would compete solely for the glory. It'd be like living out the dream of my ten year old self.

The senior champion did, though, and I think both runners up had one as well.
I wonder how Nintendo thinks of their little restricted Pokemon experiment.
Last year all those restricted Pokemon were just banned.

For a world event, these things are so American.

* 2004: Orlando, Florida
* 2005: San Diego, California
* 2006: Anaheim, California
* 2007: Kona, Hawaii
* 2008: Orlando, Florida
* 2009: San Diego, California
* 2010: Kona, Hawaii
* 2011: San Diego, California

You'd think at the very least Japan would get a turn.
