Despite the fact that some official information is still pending, its time for Pokémon players hoping to go to the U.S. National Championships to look to their points! Organizers also will need to keep deadlines in mind so that their players get all the points they've earned and events aren't scheduled or uploaded past when points can be credited.
Here's what we know so far:

Though details haven't been announced, I would expect a version of last year's mandatory online registration, which only permitted registration if you have the minimum or better number of Play! Points. These are the minimum Play! Points requirements for each game and division.
As I see it (unofficially and with no inside info) here's the latest things should be done:

- This might (might) also mean that PLAYERS and ORGANIZERS will want to get all Play! Points credited by June 9 as well.
