I'm not sure, but it should be in the same area.... actually, I think all the ballrooms are in the same area, so it shouldn't be too hard to find. Just follow the trail of Pokémon Cards, you should be OK... :lol:
 
Crisbo ( one one of the guys who does the tournament) he said it is in an diffrent room, (he was the guy on the pcs by states)
 
Anyone bringing Brawl to play again? If not, a friend and I might..
 
which deck has the most chances to win the reginals??? G&G? magmortar? Blissey? Lucario? darkrei? Gyrados or something else what do think???
 
I can bring my Wii and Brawl if no one else is going to, but I can't bring a TV. Also, if I were to bring it, someone would have to watch it the entire time or my parents/brother won't let me take it.

I would probably be hovering around the general vicinity of any Brawl setups I see while I'm not playing in the tournament. Unfortunately playing in the tournament will take up most of my time.
