# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Pokemon Mid Year Celebration - TCG Expanded Format
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 12 Jun, 2025 at 05:45 pm

This isn't about being super competitive, but rather having some fun with some older cards. Had a deck idea you didn't get to play before rotation? Miss playing that Sun & Moon deck? Now's your chance! And if you don't have older cards, you can still play Standard decks, as long as it abides by the following rules.

Players will need to bring an Expanded constructed deck to play with. This means:
- 60 Cards. No more, no less.
- Cards must be printed in English (or in European region languages defined in the Tournament rules handbook)
- Cards must be from sets from Black & White to Journey Together
- Have no more than 4 copies of a single card. For example: You can only play 4 copies of Professor's Research, regardless of the Professor they are. For Pokémon, you may only have 4 copies of a Pokémon’s name. So you could, for example, play 2 copies of Charmander from Obsidian Flames, and 2 copies from Paldean Fates, but not 4 of each. You could however play 4 Pikachu and 4 Pikachu ex as these are considered different names.
- You can play more than 4 copies of basic energies and they do not require the regulation mark, as they are not printed as such. You can use any type, including Fairy.
- All cards must be legal and official Pokemon cards. No proxies will be allowed.
- Destined Rivals will NOT be legal for play.
- Cards on the official ban list cannot be played. See https://www.pokemon.com/uk/play-pokemon/about/pokemon-tcg-banned-card-list for the full list.

We will play a number of rounds, depending on the number of teams.

Registration will begin at 5.45pm and rounds will start at 6.15pm. 

If you are running late, we may be able to register you on arrival, but you will incur game/round losses.

Depending on numbers, we may also be able to accommodate Casual play, but priority will go to the event.

Please bring your Play Pokémon ID. If you already have one but don’t know it, you can find it by logging into the Pokémon website. Otherwise, if you do not have one yet, we will be able to issue you one on the day.
