Pokémon Video Game Premier Challenges
This is a list of all the organizers who are allowed to run Premier Challenges ordered by state, province, or country and separated by region. If you don’t see someone local on this list, find out who your local organizers are by finding an event near you and encourage them to sign up to run a Premier Challenge on the Professor Forums which they will have access to. If you do have an organizer nearby and are willing to help them promote and run their event, reach out to them! Premier Challenges are entry-level Pokémon video game tournaments meant to introduce players to the Pokémon Video Game Championship Series (VGC) which leads into the Pokémon World Championships. You can gain points towards an invitation for the World Championships as well as experience to play in higher level events like the Regional and National Championships. Remember to check out our Premier Challenge forum to find events and make sure they’re up and sanctioned on Pokémon.com.
