The 2023 Play! Pokémon season started officialy at the London Open, held on August 2022 alongside the 2022 World Championships, and will come to an end at the 2023 World Championships in Yokohama, Japan. This is the first time that Worlds will be held in Japan, the most successful country in VGC history!
After the unusual 2020/2022 season, it was announced on 17 August 2022 that all VGC events in TPCI regions would be put on hold after the London Open for several months, until January 2023, when the circuit would resume with the new games, Pokémon Scarlet & Pokémon Violet. This means that a VGC competition will not be held in an International Championships for the first time ever, as Latin America Internationals are scheduled in November only featuring TCG and GO. Events in TPC regions are still being held in those months.
The London Open and the Taipei Regionals were played in Pokémon Sword & Pokémon Shield, while all other events will be played in the newest games Pokémon Scarlet & Pokémon Violet.

Format rotations
After the London Open, played under Series 12 rules in Pokémon Sword & Pokémon Shield, there will be no official VGC events for the remainder of 2022 in TPCI regions. In TPC regions, the Taipei Regionals were played in Series 13, the format of official in-game Ranked Battles from 1 September 2022 to 31 October 2022.
All VGC events taking place from January 2023 on will use Pokémon Scarlet & Pokémon Violet until further notice.
The official VGC rules may vary with each Series of Ranked Battles. That means that both online & real-life events may also follow such regulations from the start of the VGC official season on 2 January 2023.
- Series 1: 2–31 Jan 2023
- Series 2: 1 Feb–31 Mar 2023
Battle rules
The TPCI-region events in this season will be played using open team lists. A full disclosure of the rules and penalty guidelines is available in the official Play! Pokémon rules document.
- Players will play in Double Battles in Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet.
- Each player selects four of the Pokémon in their Battle Team.
- Gameplay continues until a player makes all four of their opponent’s Pokémon faint or until the in-game time limit has expired.
- Matches played during Swiss rounds may be best-of-one or best-of-three (the latter is strongly recommended in Regional-level and higher-tier events). All top cuts must be played as best-of-three.
- At the start of a match, players will swap team lists.
- There is no round timer and all matches shall be allowed to finish when a player’s all four Pokémon faint or the in-game time limit has expired. The in-game timers are the following:
- Team preview: 90 seconds
- Move time limit: 45 seconds
- Player total time limit (called “Your time” in game): 7 minutes
- Game time: 20 minutes

Sword & Shield Series 12

The VGC Series 12 format of Pokémon Sword & Pokémon Shield is a throwback to the 2010, 2016 and 2019 rulesets, all of them known as GS Cup, formats where Restricted Legendary Pokémon such as Groudon, Lunala, Zacian or Calyrex are allowed. It was played during the 2022 season when live events came back after the two-year hiatus.
For the 2023 season, the London Open was the only official event played using the VGC Series 12 ruleset.
Starting on 1 November 2022, the Ranked Battles in-game ladder came back to this format ahead of the transition to Pokémon Scarlet & Pokémon Violet. This format, essentially the same as Series 12, was known as Series 14.
The list of permitted Pokémon changes with each Series. For the current format, Series 12, the following Pokémon are allowed:
- Galar Pokédex: #001-397
- Isle of Armor Pokédex: #001-210
- Crown Tundra Pokédex: #001-209
- National Pokédex: #243–245, #252–260, #380–381, #480–482, #485, #488, #638–642, #645, #722–730, #785–788, #793–799 and #803–806
Additionally, players may use two of the following Restricted Pokémon in their teams:
- National Pokédex: #150, #249-250, #382–384, #483–484, #487, #643–644, #646, #716–718, #789–792, #800, #888–890 and #898.
Mythical Pokémon are banned.

Age divisions
Play! Pokémon separates players into three age divisions: Juniors (JR), Seniors (SR), and Masters (MA). The age division that a player participates in is set at the beginning of the season, based on that player’s year of birth, and does not change over the course of that season. This allows players to compete against the same pool of opponents over the course of the season.
These are the age divisions for the 2023 season:
- Juniors: born in 2011 or later
- Seniors: born in 2007 to 2010
- Masters: born in 2006 or earlier
Events: where and when?
The 2023 season is made up of events taking place in all 5 continents. These events are divided into two main categories: major events and local events:
- Major events are hosted directly by The Pokémon Company International (TPCi) or an outsourcer. These events award greater prizes and Championship Points.
- Major events in Japan and South East Asia are managed by The Pokémon Company (TPC) with a different award structure not based in Championship Points.
- Major events in South Korea are managed by Pokémon Korea.
- Local events are run by volunteer organizers and allow newer players and smaller communities to take part of the game. These have not happened since March 2020 and are not yet confirmed to return.
Among these events, the most important are the International Championships (for TPCI regions) and National Championships (for TPC and Pokémon Korea regions). Sadly, for the first time ever, there will not be VGC International Championships in Latin America.
Championship Points & prizes
Championship Points (CP) are awarded to players based on their placements at various Play! Pokémon tournaments. Major events also hand out prizes as either cash money or scholarships as well as trophies and Pokémon merchandising.
Local events
There has been no mention on whether local events will return for the 2023 season.

Best Finish Limits
Each event type has its own Best Finish Limit (BFL), which indicates the number of best results taken into account towards your invite to Worlds 2023. A BFL of 6 for Regionals and Special Events means that only your 6 best performances of the season at this kind of events will be counted towards Worlds qualification.
However, these BFLs do not apply for the Internationals qualification periods. Even if your BFL of a certain event type is maxed out before the season ends, you may want to play to obtain CP towards Travel Awards.
Qualification periods & Travel Awards
In the TPCI-based regions, Travel Awards will be handed out to the players in each age division and rating zone having gathered the most CP during an exact qualification period. Players having maxed out their BFLs can still get CP towards these awards.
Players in the Top 4 of their home region (North America, Europe, Latin America, Oceania) and age division during these periods receive a Travel Award, valued at $2000 for the in-region Internationals to $3500 for out-of-region ones ($2500 and $5000, respectively, for minors). Players ranked 5th to 8th can earn a $1000 Travel Stipend.
