You can battle in Pokémon TCG, Video Game Championship (VGC), and Pokémon GO Regional Championships, which take place all over the world. After the Pokémon International Championships, the Pokémon Regional Championships are the largest events in terms of both attendance and Championship Point payouts. They also award direct invitations to the World Championships for Pokémon GO.
Pokémon TCG players need to bring their own legal 60-card deck for the Standard format. Pokémon VGC players must bring their own game system and a legal Pokémon team. Pokémon GO players must have a legal Pokémon team on their GO account. In order to participate, players must have a Pokémon Trainer Club account; be in good standing with the Play! Pokémon program; and comply with current COVID-19 requirements for large Pokémon events. Registration for these events is handled by the Tournament Organizer, and an entry fee may be charged at their discretion. Many Regional Championships require online registration, and events may sell out.
