Queue closed at 11am as a 9 hour waiting time, is anybody here going anytime soon?
Look at all those kids ... oh wait ...
Really? Its plot was a 14 year old's idea of maturity and the gameplay itself was a broken mess with all the original Pokemon being either busted or terrible and the gym fights being bad.
It's not the worst Pokemon fangame but it's still pretty bad.
Yeah, a bunch of stuff.
Dawwww now I'd camp out 9 hours for that 😍
Is it just a store? I legit don't know what's at a Poke'mon Center, and I feel old. Do we have them in the US?
Yeah, a bunch of stuff.
That's so cool. Each Pokemon Centre has unique goods. Even in Japan, if you go to the one in Okinawa they sell Pikachus in Hawaiian shirts.
My cousin was into Pokémon when Pokémon Go craze happened. He collected the cards and toys.
I like how I can't see a single kid in that photo. Really makes this meme true.
It's a school day, so the kids would be in school. Plus Kids don't have money.
It's Autumn in London, the heatwave would be in July.
Half Term in England starts be next week on Monday, it's only the Scottish kids were off this week with it ending on Friday.
I'm currently at my son's elementary school fall carnival. About 10% of the kids are wearing some sort of Pokemon costume including my son who is dressed as Haunter.
Yes, there's been one in new York for 15 years and an online store.
I'm going on either Monday or Tuesday... hopefully the queues will be shorter since it's a week-day. Might just get up early and head there before opening to be safe.
So annoyed, I was in London last week and I'm in London again literally the day after it closes. It would cost me £100 to get there and is too much effort to go travelling there and back in a day.
I'm really hoping someone I know goes so I can get the London Pikachu plush, or we get an online shop.

...I'm jealous.
I also wish to fuck we had those cool Japanese cafes.
(^clicky! they honestly sound tasty too)
They are okay. The Bulbasaur burger is pretty good but the rest is really standard.
Would you not be better waiting for the week after next, since all the kids will be on half term next week?
Just walked past the line and there's plenty of kids but obviously lots more adults. It's not exactly easy getting a kid to wait in a queue for 8 hours lol.
Probely because of all the stories about knife attacks. Acid attacks. And seeing cop shows with a lot of those scooters hit and runs. Im sure a lot of people will never be a victim of crime in London, but to someone from a smaller city it can be scary i imagine. I feel safe there but i can certainly understand.
