Pokémon Company Unveils Rebranded Play! Pokémon Program
The Pokémon Company’s outreach program, Pokémon Organized Play, has evolved. Its latest incarnation, Play! Pokémon, is essentially the same thing, though it’s hard to argue that it isn’t a catchier name.
If you’re not that into Pokémon, Play! Pokemon is essentially a way for Pokémon players to do whatever it is that they do. New players can meet up at events to learn how the collectible card game works or to hone video game strategies. Veterans can enter tournaments and win prizes, such as the 2010 World Championships in Kona, Hawaii, which takes place from August 14-15.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
