All Pokémon will be automatically set to level 50.
Four Pokémon will be used each match. Each battle will last a maximum of five minutes. Players will have 90 seconds to pick which four Pokémon they will battle with and 45 seconds to select a move or switch Pokémon. Participants may battle 15 times a day for a maximum of 45 battles. The top players in each age division will receive Championship Points towards the World Championships being held in August. Players must win or lose three battles to receive Battle Points.
