The 2018 Pokémon Japan Championships will be held from June 9 to 10 at the {{wp|Makuhari Messe}} convention center outside Tokyo in Japan. As in previous years, the tournament will feature three tournaments: one for the core series video games (using {{bp|Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}), one for the {{bp|Pokémon Trading Card Game}}, and one for {{bp|Pokkén Tournament}}. | |||
The competition will award high-ranking players in each tournament the ability to go to the 2018 Pokémon World Championships, which were [[2018 World Championships to be held in Nashville|previously announced]] for Nashville, Tennessee in the United States. | |||
To qualify for the video game division, players must rank in one of three online competitions. The first of these competitions [[2018 International Challenge - January tournament announced|starts this month]], followed by two in March and April later this year. |
