2024 Pokémon World Championships date and location revealed
Headed to Honolulu, Hawaii.
This year's Pokémon World Championships will culminate at the Hawaii Convention Center in Honolulu, Hawaii.
The Pokémon Company made the announcement this weekend, at the Europe International Championships, which were held in London. The event sees the very best Pokémon players battle it out with Pokémon cards, and in video games including Pokémon Go, Pokémon Unite and Pokémon Scarlet and Violet,
Next up for this year's tour is its North American leg, to be held in New Orleans in early June.
Hawaii's grand finale will be held from 16th to 18th August, and will see new global champions crowned for each Pokémon game.
