This weekend the Pokémon World Championships will be taking place in London and naturally anticipation is building for the event, both for entrants and spectators. Those within the city can already experience some PokéMagic, though, as the Transport for London cable cars that run across the River Thames have been redecorated for the occasion.

Each of the vehicles is decked out with a unique design themed to each typing, while the stations have gotten plenty of fake advertisements.
Last Worlds left with the notion of “they can’t outdo this one”.

Whether it’s an exciting new entry in a series long established or a weird experiment meant only for the dedicated, Tom is eager to report on it. Rest assured, if Nintendo ever announces Elite Beat Agents 2, he’ll be there.
