As part of the lead-up to the 2026 Pokemon World Championships the following week, we’re excited to host a full day of Pokemon-themed activities, tournaments, and more! Be sure to sign up for the tournaments and trivia fast– space is limited for them! Prizes for the carnival games will be while supplies last, and these don’t require pre-registration.
Be sure to sign up ahead of time for a Play! Pokemon account and Trainer ID number at join.pokemon.com (this is required for a lot of our events, so it’s good to have!) Players under age 13 will need their parents to create an account, then create a Child Account from within that.
This event is recommended for all ages 6+ who are interested in Pokemon, and for those who would like to learn more about the different ways the Omar’s World of Comics community plays!
