Pokemon, free booze and being a Vice whore

Hi lovers, today I’m going to be Vice’s whore. There could be worse. I could be writing for the NME.

So Vice are having this art exhibition/party with Pokemon. Sounds weird? Sounds good? Nintendo, who are putting out a new Pokemon game asked a bunch of semi-famous artists to create Pokemon-themed art for this purpose and this mega-LOLZ-free party is the place to see that art…and more importantly to bag some free booze.

The event is going to have Filthy Dukes, Friendly Fires and Real Gold DJs and, did I mention it already, free booze.

The exhibition opens with a big launch party on the 24th March, full of Pokemon inspired food and, hmmmm did I mention it already, lots of free booze. The event will be guestlist only, attended by members of the press, select tastemakers from the Vice network, and competition winners. Go to www.viceland.com/repokemon to see the work, find out more about the campaign and enter the competition.

You know you want to.

And some pictures of the Pokemon art. Deep.
