==Trading Card Game Championships==
The {{TCG|2023-24 Standard format}} was used for the Pokémon TCG Championships, allowing all cards with regulation mark E or later. Players received invitations from gaining enough Championship Points throughout the year or from the previous World Championships. The top cut for some rating zones were able to go straight to Day Two: the Top 2 of the Middle East and South Africa, Top 4 of Oceania, Top 12 of Latin America, Top 16 of US and Canada, and Top 22 of Europe.
Day One was composed of Swiss rounds, with players earning enough match points moving on to Day Two. Players competed in a new set of Swiss rounds on Day Two until a Top 8 was determined. The Top 8 then had a single elimination bracket, with the finals taking place on Day Three. All games were best of three.

==Video Game Championships==
Players received invitations from gaining enough Championship Points throughout the year or from the previous World Championships. The top cut for some rating zones were able to go straight to Day Two: the Top 4 of Oceania, Top 8 of US/Canada and Latin America, and Top 16 of Europe.
Day One players competed in Swiss rounds, with those ending the day with fewer than three losses and no ties moving on to Day Two. A new set of Swiss rounds was played Day Two until a top cut could be determined to play a single elimination bracket. The finals of this bracket were played on Day Three.
Matches took place in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]] and were all [[Double Battle]]s. All Pokémon in the games (including by transfer from [[Pokémon HOME]]) were eligible except any [[special Pokémon]], {{p|Iron Leaves}}, or {{p|Walking Wake}}. Levels for all Pokémon were adjusted to level 50 and no duplicate Pokémon or items were allowed.
