Ticket: Pokémon League Challenge - 09 Sep 2026 at 07:00 PM

2027 League Challenge events will typically be held once per month at select Pokémon League locations. Pokémon TCG tournaments use the Standard format, while Pokémon video game tournaments use the format detailed in the latest regulations. Pokémon GO tournaments will use Great League format battles. Pokémon TCG players need to bring their own 60-card deck. Pokémon video game players need to bring their own Pokémon Champions game and their own Nintendo Switch system. Pokémon GO players need to bring their own mobile device. Players must have a Pokémon Trainer Central account with a Player ID attached, and they must have opted in to the Play! Pokémon program in order to earn Championship Points and prizes. All participants will receive 1 Play! Point just for playing, and additional prizes may be awarded at the Tournament Organizer’s discretion. Championship Point awards have the same values for Pokémon TCG, Pokémon video game, and Pokémon GO competitions. The Best Finish Limit (BFL) for both League Challenges and League Cups is 4 each—they do not share a Best Finish Limit allotment. Note that Championship Points are not shared from game to game—CP earned in Pokémon TCG qualifications do not apply to Pokémon GO, for example.
