I like the idea of a Go Pass folding in the £2/£5 event tickets throughout the month, assuming that's the thinking here. The big difference will be how major events like Go Tour, Go Fest are handled as you say. Maybe they'll be higher in cost for a simpler single pass? We'll wait and see!

Pokémon EUIC review: Is it worth going to play Pokémon Go? The huge London gathering for Pokémon’s competitive scene had plenty going on - but was there enough for Pokémon Go players?

Coverage of what it's like to be at EUIC has been well trodden over the years, so we attended this year's event with a specific mindset: what is there for Pokémon Go players, and is it worth attending to play alone?

(And most importantly, what was the big Pokémon Go truck like?)
