November 22, 2002 -- Pokémon Center
NY threw a swingin’ little party at the store last weekend –
check out all the fun we had when Radio Disney came by and helped us celebrate
our one year anniversary!
 It’s
been a year since we plunked down our stakes and started the Pokémon
Center in New York City – and during that year we saw the Pokémon
universe soar with new products, great events, and fun times at the store.
Where else could you get Celebi and Mew through our Gotta Catch ‘Em
All™ Station – and who else hosts a whole ton of weekend events
to celebrate everything Pokémon, from character parades featuring
Pikachu and Meowth (among others) to giveaways and contests?
 At
Pokémon Center NY, we’re so proud of everything we’ve
accomplished this past year, and so proud of our store employees who make
it all possible day after day, that we threw a little party for our fans
and ourselves – and we were helped out by the crew at Radio Disney,
who came to town and provided a deejay, music, prizes, and more!
Sponsoring everything from trivia sweepstakes to hula hoop contests to
creative and interactive games, the Radio Disney crew notched up the fun
factor by also providing a live radio show, and brought a truck full of
music with them. The whole store, which reached capacity early in the
day, was rockin’ and rollin’ with the Radio Disney gang. Thousands
of people showed up to catch some tunes, buy some products, and walk away
with a day full of memories that won’t soon be forgotten.
 We
also hosted exclusive and very private screenings of the Pokémon
4Ever movie which were attended by shoppers who took advantage of
our sales specials – anyone who made three purchases in November
was given two passes to the screenings. Every child that attended got
a free goodie bag full of Pokémon toys, and at the end of the movie
Celebi made a special appearance
In keeping with our November to Remember theme, we also gave away discount
coupons, free Pokémon plush figures, and lots of good holiday cheer
to help jumpstart the holiday shopping season.
Don’t worry if you missed out – we’ll be offering specials
and discounts throughout the holidays and into next year. And a special
shout of thanks goes out to Radio Disney, the staff at the Pokémon
Center NY store, and of course you, our faithful fans!
