Prerelease Tournaments are events in which players get the opportunity to play with cards from an Expansion that will be released in stores prior to the event. They are typically held on the two weekends before the set release (although a third weekend is added to the schedule if the Prerelease clashes with a major Play! Pokémon event (such as the World Championship, traditionally held in August). The fee is $20-25 and each player gets six Booster packs. Each player builds a 40-card deck using the cards opened out of the six packs (not including basic Energy cards, which are provided at the event).
