All Pokemon Regional & International Championship events for 2025
The Pokemon Company has revealed the dates for all Regional and International Championship events during the 2025 Play! Pokemon season. We’ve got all the information about the circuits here.
The recently celebrated 2024 Pokemon World Championships run from August 16 to 18, 2024, in Honolulu, Hawaii. And even though the event went smoothly, players slammed The Pokemon Company for choosing the location following the disastrous wildfires in centuries-old Lahaina Town in Maui.
Now, they have announced that the 2025 Pokemon Championship Series will take place from July 2024 to May 2025, with the exceptions of the 2025 North America International Championships and the 2025 Pokemon World Championships.
