I was there and it was pretty cool. Hulk came for a little while a few times; he kept pronouncing "pokémon" wrong (as pokeeman). There were some musical performances, mostly by the Pokémon Fan Band, and they put on some little skits with Jesse, James, Officer Jenny, and various other animé characters. The whole thing was hosted by "Cooltrainer Tracey". Then there was, of course, the national championship. The semifinals and finals were showed on the huge screen on stage.

They also had a giveaway where you could get one of the top 20 pokémon ("As voted by fans on www.Pokemon.com"). They were: Pikachu (10th Anniversary Flying Pikachu), Charizard, Zapdos, Bulbasaur (I don't know how it got in there either), Latias, Articuno, Suicune, Absol, Espeon, Umbreon, Blastoise, Latios, Moltres, Alakazam, Entei, Typhlosion, Raikou, Tyranitar, Blaziken, and Dragonite. Only the Flying Pikachu was really worth the wait (over an hour), since you can get all the others within the games.

One of the best things was the Video Game Arena, where you could (after another long wait) play demos of Mystery Dungeon (Red and Blue Rescue Teams) and Ranger. They were both interesting, but really not much more than distractions until Diamond and Pearl come out.

All in all I'd say it was worth all the standing around in the hot sun. It wasn't exactly the "Party of the Decade" as they advertised, but it was fun nonetheless.

WACKY DELLY YEAH
The party was fun for me. I got to run around Bryant Park, Cower in fear of cosplayers, and get a Flying Pikachu. Me, my friend, and another SPPf member (I think he was) got interviewed by a guy from Pokémon Palace Network (I'm the one that says,"Pokémon is the greatest RPG I ever got my hands on."). My friend also had a great opporitunity to buy/sell/trade his cards. And greatest of all, I was given the opporitunity to stand within 20 feet of Hulk Hogan.

Today was winner.

I got to talk to Hinata in person
^///^
And I got her picture! I also got a Plusle plushie and a sparkly Mew notebook (yes, I got the Pikachu at the PokeWheel of Fortune)
I also got the Japanese Pokemon fan.
The stamp game prize was **** though. Cheap ****! I apologize for my cursing on the forums but it was a ****ing keychain string with this stupid small nintendo logo.
I was lucky too, when we first arrived, the bus stopped at 41st street and that stop was exactly parallel to the park. A few other Pokemon fans got off the bus with me.
And my mother took my picture with the three Pokemon at the entrance.
I didn't get to see the Hulk though
But I saw Hinata
*_* and she was hot even in real life!

I came wayyy at the beginning, so I got pikachu. It took only about 15 minutes... After that, I gave away free celibi, pikachu, and whatever else anyone wanted. Even met some people from/supporting(?) Serebii.net. I got the 10th aniversery chain thingy by getting the stamps... Then went up to the empire state building and saw it from wayyy up.

PS: Now my birthday is Pokemon day... =P
PPS: The people upstage REALLY didn't want to be there... Did you hear them?!? "I, er, uhhh... Like Pokaman... Yay Pokaman... Uh, can I go now?"
