Additionally, the best-placed players will receive the following CPs and prize money depending on final attendance:

If prize money is $5000 or more, it will be given as a choice of scholarship (in all cases) or cash (for minors, as a Pokémon Visa® Prepaid Card). For lower prizes, it will be given as cash (for minors, as a Pokémon Visa® Prepaid Card).

Overview

The San Antonio Regional Championships is an official TPCi Regional-level event for Pokémon VGC, TCG and Pokémon GO. It is the fifth Regional-level event of the 2024 season in the North American circuit.

The ruleset is VGC Regulation Set E, and it is played using open team lists. The Temporary Post-Release Restriction Clause is under effect for this Regional, banning any new content from the recently released The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC Part 2: The Indigo Disk.

A little bit of history

The United States has been part of the North America region of the official TPCi circuit since the very beginning, also being home to the TPCi headquarters. It has hosted multiple major events, including Regional Championships, old-era National Championships, all editions of the North America International Championships and most World Championships (only excluding 2013, 2022 and 2023). The United States’ greatest VGC success are the four World Championship wins achieved by Ray Rizzo (2010, 2011 and 2012) and Wolfe Glick (2016), not even counting being the home country of 6 Senior Division and 5 Junior Division World Champions too.

The most recent tournament held in the United States was the 2024 Sacramento Regional, played in the VGC Regulation Set E in October 2023. The finals saw American Michael Zhang defeat 5-time Regional Champion Riley Factura to win his first Regional Championship title!

The last time there was an event in Texas was the 2020 Dallas Regional, played in Pokémon Sword & Pokémon Shield with the VGC Series 2 ruleset in January 2020. The finals saw 2016 United States National finalist Aaron Traylor defeat Chinese Wang Bingjie to win his second Regional Championship title!

American James Evans, the 2018 Senior Division World Champion, defeated Brazilian Gabriel Agati in the NAIC finals.
