Ok. With hearing alot of people saying they have been having problems creating a "My Pokemon" account, I decided to make a nice little " How to" guide to help people through it. I have had no problems creating the accounts, so this guide should do the trick for you. If you still have any questions, feel free to ask them. I or anyone else that has done this can give you an answer.

Hope this helps everyone, and if I forgot something or you see an error, please feel free to post.

p.s. I`ll sticky this for convenience.

`Sensei`s "How to sign up for a "My Pokemon" account in 7 simple steps"

1) Go to http://op.pokemon-tcg.com/

2) Click on “Sign Up” on the top of the page.

3) Enter your complete birthdate information in the “Get My Pokemon” area and then click “Sign up”.
• Make sure you put in the correct year

4) Put your POP ID in the box and click “continue”.
• If you cannot remember the password for your old POP ID, select "No POP ID" and continue with the registration process. Once you've finished registering, send an email to [email protected] with your:

* First name
* Last name
* Old POP ID
* New POP ID

Tell them which number you would like to keep and they'll merge your IDs. If there is insufficient information in either of the accounts, PUI WILL NOT merge your accounts.


5) Put your password and click “continue” (only for the "older" #`s).
• capitalize the “IP” if that is part of your password

6) Fill out all required fields and then click your preferences in the questions below. Once you are done, click “submit.”

7) Verify all info, go to the bottom and read the “terms of use” and if you agree, then click the “accept” box” and then click “continue”. It should say an e-mail has been sent to your e-mail. You are all set.

I hate to sound real stupid, but does it cost anything by any chance. That was one of my main concerns and I didnt want to sign up for anyhting and have my parents think "what is this fee that we have no idea about?"

No! Signing up for a "My Pokemon" account doesn`t cost a single thing. Also, the info is kept private and you can choose right in your account if you want them to send any other info or not. The account is really cool!

Oh, don`t forget everyone...If you don`t sign up for a "My Pokemon" account", then your rankings and ratings will NOT be valid.

Step 4A) If you cannot remember the password for your old POP ID, select "No POP ID" and continue with the registration process. Once you've finished registering, send an email to [email protected] with your:

Hey! You didn`t say please! ;)

j/k Thanks for the help Mike!
 
How long does it (usually) take to merge accounts?

Also, what do I do if I'm in a tournament and my accounts haven't merged yet despite an E-mail to the proper authorities? Do I give the old ID, or the new?

1) As soon as they can get to it I`m sure. How long that is, they`ll have to tell us.

2) I would use the # that you asked them to merge into.

Ok, thank you, but I cant attend...My deck isnt complete yet, and Im broke and my parents are over protective. (wont let me trade online)
 
but when POP IDs are issued, we do not issue a password. So my players only have part of what they need to register. Do the players click on "lost password" at that point, or do they apply as if they have no POP ID and then merge them later?
 
For the new POP #`s that we are issuing, you don`t need a password. Start the sign ups!
