A '''Pokémon League''', often casually referred to simply as a '''League''', is a periodic gathering, typically weekly, of players of the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] and [[Pokémon games|Pokémon video games]]. During a Pokémon League session, players battle and trade for fun. It is not a structured {{DL|Play! Pokémon|Local Tournaments|tournament}} and there are no regular "prizes" for winning. However, each player can obtain an official {{DL|Play! Pokémon|Registration|Player ID}}. Event organizers will upload player event play information to [[Play! Pokémon]], eventually resulting in [[#Current rewards|minor prizes]]. | A '''Pokémon League''', often casually referred to simply as a '''League''', is a periodic gathering, typically weekly, of players of the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] and [[Pokémon games|Pokémon video games]].

Most Pokémon Leagues meet once a week, year round, though some meet more or less than that. Some Leagues running once a month during only a certain time period. A lot of the time Pokémon leagues do tournaments called {{TCG|League Challenge}}s that happens once a month. If you get in the best 4 players of this tournament, you get a "League Challenge Promo" stamped with your final placement. Leagues can also run "bigger" tournaments once every three months that are called {{TCG|League Cup}}s. You get [[Championship Point]]s in both of these tournaments and so, a league is the starting point to get a qualification for [[World Championships]]. | Most Pokémon Leagues meet once a week, year round, though some meet more or less than that.
