D&D Learn to Play: Shadows Over Raven’s Bluff
Step into the City of Adventure! Have you ever wanted to play Dungeons & Dragons? Join us at The Gnoshery on Saturday, February 28th, for a special “Learn to Play” event set in the most famous metropolis of the Forgotten Realms: Raven’s Bluff.
While the adventure is based on the classic Defiance in Phlan, we are transporting the action to the crowded docks and noble estates of the Vast. The mysterious Cult of the Dragon has begun to infiltrate the city’s guilds and high society, and Raven’s Bluff needs heroes to stand against them.

Date: Saturday, Feb 28

Time: 5:00 PM

Entry: $10.00

No Experience Needed: We provide the characters, the dice, and the Dungeon Master!

You’ll begin your journey at a local favorite—The Laughing Beholder or perhaps a quiet tea room in the Harbor District—where your first contact awaits. Whether you are working for the clandestine Harpers or the ambitious Zhentarim, your choices will echo through the streets of Raven’s Bluff.
Spaces are limited to ensure a great experience. Register ONLINE to secure your seat at the table!

Pokemon Perfect Order Prerelease
2026-03-14 09:00 - 11:00
Pokemon Perfect Order Prerelease at the Gnoshery!
Saturday March 14
Registration Opens 9:00 AM (Online Preregistration is open until 6 AM)
Tournament Begins 9:30 AM
Entry $40
Format – Limited (Sealed Build and Battle)
Play 3 Matches and all players will receive 3 additional Mega Evolution Perfect Order Boosters after playing!
Mega Evolution – Perfect Order Prerelease! Crack open a Build & Battle kit, craft a deck, and see how you do in a 3 round Swiss style tournament! All participants get 3 packs of Perfect Order at the end for playing. Players have 30 minutes to build their decks. Rounds are 30 minutes, best of one.
Each Build & Battle Kit contains 4 Mega Evolution – Perfect Order Booster Packs and a 40-card ready-to-play deck. These also contain one of four unique foil promo cards for Pokémon like Mega Zygarde ex, Mega Clefable ex, Mega Starmie ex, and Meowth ex. Discover them in the Pokémon TCG: Mega Evolution—Perfect Order expansion!
In the Prerelease format, players compete using a 40-card deck with four Prize cards set aside at the start of play, as opposed to a 60-card deck with six Prize cards. Prerelease is perfect for introducing new Trainers to the exciting world of the Pokémon TCG with quick, fun games, and it gives seasoned Trainers a window into everything Mega Evolution—Perfect Order has to offer. Due to the limited card pool and the variance of cards that can be acquired in a Build & Battle Box, Prerelease events are a great opportunity to flex your creative deck-building muscles.
Each Build & Battle Box includes four Mega Evolution—Perfect Order booster packs and a 40-card, ready-to-play deck featuring key cards from current and prior expansions, as well as one of four unique foil promo cards. Depending on which promo card you get, you could be playing with the royal Serperior, the handy hero Barbaracle, the tyrannical Tyrantrum, or the sword-flashing Doublade.

Serperior

The intimidating, yet majestic Lord of the Forest’s Regal Command attack rewards Trainers who keep a full Bench by doing 20 damage for each of your Pokémon in play. While that may be difficult to attain in the early game, Serperior rewards patience—and has direct synergy with Rosa’s Encouragement. With this Supporter card in your discard pile, damage done by Solar Coiling is boosted to 250 total—which spells devastation for many of your opponents in a Prerelease match.

Keep an eye out for the Forest of Vitality Stadium card, which will help put Serperior into play much faster. Plus, Shaymin can use its Send Flowers attack to find Growing Energy, which you can attach to Serperior to boost its HP by 20. Since Serperior has a lot of late-game utility, a little extra HP will surely be helpful.

Barbaracle

We’ve got to hand it to Barbaracle (though arguably it has plenty of those already)—it’s got a rock-solid Ability in Stone Arms to accelerate Energy from your hand to one of your Pokémon. This makes Barbaracle an integral part of a Mega Zygarde ex deck, since its comparatively high-cost attacks can use all the Energy acceleration they can get.

Rocky Energy is a Fighting-type Pokémon’s best friend—it protects the Pokémon it’s attached to from any effects of the opponent’s attacks. This will keep Barbaracle armed against effects like Klefki’s Memory Lock. Landorus is an addition that opens up some flexibility in your Energy attachment, since its Screw Knuckle attack allows you to put an Energy attached to it back into your hand.

Tyrantrum

Another Pokémon that benefits greatly from Rocky Energy is Tyrantrum. Its Tyrannically Gutsy Ability boosts Tyrantrum’s HP from 180 to 330 if it has a Special Energy attached, which makes it a single-Prize tank worthy of a king’s crown.

To get Tyrantrum to its throne on the battlefield, you need to get Antique Jaw Fossil into play first, so deck-searching Supporter cards like Team Rocket’s Petrel and Drayton are critical inclusions. Tyrantrum’s Wreak Havoc attack allows you to flip a coin until you get tails, discarding the top card of your opponent’s deck for each heads. Enhanced Hammer amps up the chaos by discarding a Special Energy attached to one of your opponent’s Pokémon, disrupting opportunities for counterplay.

Doublade

In the Prerelease format, there’s no limit to the number of copies of a Pokémon you can have in your deck—so you could include six, maybe seven copies of Honedge, Doublade, or Aegislash to maximize your damage output when Doublade attacks with Weaponized Swords.
