The "Mercari Trekkie Cup" will be held on June 9!
PR TIMESThe "Mercari Trekkie Cup," a Pokémon card game tournament sponsored by Mercari, will be held on June 9, 2024 (Sunday)!

The maximum number of entries is 512. The best 32, 16, 8, 4, and the finals of the tournament will be broadcast live on the official YouTube channel " Mercari Group Official ". During the live broadcast, the trading cards used by the players will be available for purchase on the "Mercari" site. On the day of the event, Shohei Shibata will be the play-by-play commentator, Hajime Shacho will be the guest commentator, and Miyashiro, the 4th, 5th, and 6th Pokéka Four Heavenly Kings, will participate as an invited player.
