The format for the Video Game Championships, first staged in [[2009 World Championships|2009 in San Diego, California]] is virtually the same as the TCG counterparts with winners comprised of those in National tournament play. A Last Chance Qualifier is held on Friday to fill all vacant spots. The most recently released Pokémon game (which will be [[Pokémon Black and White|Black and White]] in 2011) is used for battles. The event is a single elimination format, with the top eight players in the Junior and Senior divisions competing from a list of approved Pokémon by the organizers on Saturday. On Sunday, all eight play in a single elimination event to decide the World Champions. | The format for the Video Game Championships, first staged in [[2009 World Championships|2009 in San Diego, California]] is virtually the same as the TCG counterparts with winners comprised of those in National tournament play.
