Even if you’re not competing in the 2024 Pokémon North America International Championships (NAIC), you can still take part in the competition by entering the 2024 Pokémon NAIC Fantasy Team Contest. Registration opens at fantasy.pokemon.com on May 24, 2024, at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) and runs through June 6, 2024, at 9:00 p.m. PDT.

The Pokémon Fantasy Team Contest debuted at last year’s Pokémon World Championships, and this is the first time it’s running during an NAIC event. It’s an at-home activity where eligible Trainers in the United States and—for the first time—Canada can build their own Pokémon Trading Card Game and Pokémon video game teams based on eligible Pokémon TCG cards and Pokémon at the 2024 Pokémon NAIC event for the opportunity to win amazing prizes. Once you’ve registered your teams, be sure to tune in to watch the competition live from June 7–9, 2024, on Twitch.tv/Pokemon, Twitch.tv/PokemonTCG, and YouTube.com/Pokemon to see how your Pokémon teams fare.

2024 Pokémon NAIC Fantasy Team Contest Prizes

An early participation discount code is available to the first 10,000 US registrants and the first 2,000 Canadian registrants who sign up. Once you’ve submitted your first team, you’ll earn a 10% discount code at Pokémon Center, which is valid through June 23, 2024.

The top 100 finishers in each category will receive a Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—Twilight Masquerade Booster Display Box and a Landorus (Incarnate Forme) Sitting Cuties plush. The top finisher in each category will also receive a Pokémon Center Mountain of Discovery figure. Remember that you can create a Fantasy Team for both Pokémon TCG and Pokémon VGC categories to double your chances of winning, but you may only win one of each prize!

To sign up for the 2024 Pokémon NAIC Fantasy Team Contest, you will need a Pokémon Trainer Club account. This activity is open to US residents currently residing in any of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia who are 18 years old or the age of majority for their state—whichever is older, as of the date of entry—and to residents of Canada who are 19 years old or older as of the date of entry.

Have fun putting together your Fantasy Teams, Trainers, and good luck!
