You May Not Want to Play During 2x..

It's not the same..

Pokemon is like Sports.. your friends will tell you what happens either during or right after the game ends..
Recording a sports game is just lol.

That is only because footage of the game doesnt exist, because it has never aired and no one knows what will happen. The pokemon movies have all aired in several countries already and you could watch them now or after if you wanted rather than during the 2x event.

Also you completely ignored the suggestion of watching pokemon on the internet.
