Players will compete in head-to-head battles in three categories: Pokémon Trading Card Game, Video Game, and Pokémon GO. The event will also be a chance to meet your fellow fans, check out local vendors and displays, and more.

The champion in each age division will receive a guaranteed invitation to the 2025 Pokémon World Championships, no matter their Championship Point total at the end of the current season. There are also medals to be won, in addition to the all-important bragging rights.
