New information regarding this year’s Pokémon World Championships has been revealed through the World website

 

  • An interest list will open on April 2nd, 2026 at 5 p.m. PT | 7 p.m. CT | 8 p.m. ET. You’ll have until April 23rd, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. PT to sign up. After this date, waves of random drawings will occur allowing Trainers to purchase passes for the upcoming Championships.
  • You’ll have the option for a Multi-Day Pass OR Multi-Day plus the Arena Experience. Single day passes will not be available until a later date. You can only obtain a Single Day Pass if you were not selected for the original drawings. 
  • If you are selected, you’ll have 72 hours to complete your registration. You can purchase one pass for yourself, ONE additional adult guest and up to three additional youth guests. 

 

Pokémon World Championships passes and pricing

 

Prices have been updated and the Early Bird option is no longer available. However, looking back at the original options, it seems that they have gone with the Early Bird pricing as the standard.

  • Adult Pass (17+): $120 USD
  • Youth Pass (6-17): $70 USD
  • Youth Pass (5 & Under): Free

Looking at the FAQ, it looks like the pop-up Pokémon World Championships Center will only be available to registered attendees, a change from this past year in Anaheim. There also will be an order to register for the Pokémon Center. Competitors and their guests will be able to reserve first, followed by Multi-Day & Multi-Day + Arena, followed by Single Day.
