US Pokémon Emerald Pre-order Bonus

Do you know whether Zigzagoon is an appropriate choice to defeat Regirock in a head-to-head Pokon battle? If so, you're the kind of person that Nintendo of America (and Canada) is looking for.

The brains of North American Pokon fans will be put to the test as thousands compete to see who knows the most about the ever-popular Pokon phenomenon. To celebrate the upcoming launch of the new Pokon Emerald for the Game Boy Advance, the Pokon Emerald Frontier Battle Brain contest invites Pokon experts in the United States and Canada to test their knowledge against their fellow Pokon geniuses. The top 14 Pokon competitors will travel to Seattle (the Emerald City) to engage in an all-out, winner-take-all competition to win the trip of a lifetime: a trip for two to the Pokon Park in Nagoya, Japan. Visitors to the Pokon Emerald Frontier Battle Brain contest site also can enter for a chance to win an all-expenses-paid trip to Seattle to watch the final battle at the famous Space Needle.

"Pokon fans are proud of their collections, and proud of their knowledge," says George Harrison, Nintendo of America's senior vice president of marketing and corporate communications. "They don't just play the games, they live them. Now they can pre-order a copy of Pokon Emerald and we'll give them VIP access to information that will help them hone their skills. We'll welcome the best and brightest to the Emerald City, where they can put their Pokon learning to good use to win great prizes."

Pokon Emerald, Rated E for Everyone, will be available on May 1 in the US. Starting March 20, when buyers place a deposit for Pokon Emerald at a participating retailer, they will immediately receive their Battle Gear: A VIP card that gives the user online access to an exclusive Web site with unique content A special collector's tin case with enough room to hold important supplies like a Game Boy Advance SP and a Pokon Emerald game pak An official Frontier Battle Pass, a guide to the new, more challenging Battle Frontier of Pokon Emerald

In addition to the pre-sell program, the Pokon Emerald Frontier Battle Brain Contest will test fans' knowledge of all things Pokon. The United States and Canada will be divided into seven competitive "Frontiers." Fans can find what regional Frontier they can compete in and enter online at www.Pokon-games.com starting today. The contest will run in the following four stages: First Round: An online quiz will require entrants to identify the name and type of 30 Pokon randomly selected from a pool of all Hoenn Pokon. Prizes include a Pokon Emerald wallpaper download, and the eight entrants from each region who identify the most Pokon in the fastest times will move on to the next round. Second Round: During this online round, participants will be presented with the image of a Pokon. They must select a Pokon type to counter that Pokon. Participants must know the different types of Pokon and their strengths. Prizes include Pokon Box storage systems for the GameCube, and the four entrants from each region who provide the most correct responses in the fastest times will move on to the next round. Third Round: This online round will be in the same format as the second round. The top two winners from each region who provide the most correct responses in the fastest times will win a trip to Seattle to compete in the final round. Final Round: The 14 finalists will compete in the Pokon Emerald Frontier Battle Brain Contest at Seattle's Space Needle. The champion wins a trip for two to the Pokon Park in Nagoya, Japan.
