The United States celebration of Pokémon's Tenth Anniversary, titled "The Party of the Decade", was held on Tuesday, August 8 at New York City's Bryant Park. This was a larger version of the Journey Across America, which included the finals of the Pokémon Video Game Tournament, costumed character appearances including the American debut of Lucario, previews of the new ''Pokémon Ranger'' and ''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon'' games, and other events. Professional wrestling icon {{wp|Hulk Hogan}} hosted the activities. It also marked the farewell appearance of the original Pikachu Balloon from the {{wp|Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade}}, which flew above Bryant Park. A new Pikachu balloon, which features the mascot of the franchise chasing a Poké Ball and cheeks that light up, premiered at the 80th Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on November 23. | The United States celebration of Pokémon's Tenth Anniversary, titled "The Party of the Decade", was held on Tuesday, August 8 at New York City's Bryant Park.
