Stay tuned for information about Battle Road tournaments outside of North America.
When are the Pokémon TCG Battle Road Spring tournaments?

Remember, while we frequently update our events schedule, we recommend that you contact the local Tournament Organizer to confirm event schedule information.
How much does the event cost?
All Pokémon Organized Play Premier events in North America are FREE! That’s right—there is no admission fee for Battle Road tournaments! Get your decks tuned up, and get down to your local Battle Road location for your first shot at this free event! Organizers may charge for side events run at these tournaments.
What is the tournament structure?
The tournament is run using the Modified Constructed Format and Age Modified Swiss pairings. If attendance is appropriate, some Tournament Organizers may choose to run straight Swiss pairings. See the Pokémon Tournament Rules for information about the Modified Format and Swiss. The number of Swiss rounds run will depend on total attendance at the event.
The sets legal in the Modified Format have recently been updated. Please make sure you’re ready with a legal deck by reviewing the legal sets for the Modified Format here.
The Battle Road series will have a K-Value of 8. For more information on how the K-Value affects your Premier Rating, please see the Ratings and Rankings FAQ.
