MONTHLY EVENTS

Each month throughout the season, Pokémon UNITE teams can participate in open online tournaments. These tournaments will use a double-elimination format and will award cash prizes. Please check back for details on these events, including times and prizing information.

REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS

In May, teams can earn a spot in the Regional Championships via the Open Qualifier. The Regional Championships will then determine which teams qualify for the 2024 Pokémon UNITE World Championships via placement and Championship Points. The Regional Championships will begin with a round-robin format with teams split into four groups, then use a double-elimination format in the finals to determine the winner from the top-performing teams.

The North America Regional Finals will continue to take place at the North America International Championships (NAIC) this season. Additionally, there will be an open-bracket tournament featuring exciting prizes. Stay tuned for more information!
