Aim to become a Pokémon Trading Card Game competition Champion!
There are two ways to participate in Pokémon TCG tournaments:
・Open registration (Any resident can apply to participate. Applications may be done through a lottery)
・Some events award their top-placing players with Invites and Round 1 Bye for the next higher-tier event (Top-placing players in a Great Ball League get an Ultra Ball League Invite + Round 1 Bye, while Top-placing players in an Ultra Ball League get a Master Ball League Invite + Round 1 Bye)
In general, all TCG events require participants to register in advance.
Registration
To participate in TCG Division events, players must generally register in advance and submit their deck list through the Pokémon Trading Card Game Trainers Website.
Stream Information
The Premier Ball League and Master Ball League events will have dedicated live streams! You can look forward to intense battles and event coverage!
League Points
League Points (LP) are awarded to players who achieve high enough placements in Premier Ball League, Great Ball League, Ultra Ball League, and Master Ball League events. The amount and conditions for LP rewards depend on the event.
By earning LP and being among the top players in the LP Rankings, you can earn a Master Ball League Invite, or even a Pokémon World Championships Invite!
There will also be prizes to earn based on your LP score. You can look forward to more information on prizes in a future announcement.
* LP are only valid for one Series.
* LP scores of players from all age categories will appear in the same unified Rankings, but Master Ball League Invites and Worlds Invites will be awarded to Top ranking players from each separate age category.
