Last chance.

The last big Pokémon international esports event is about to take place in New Orleans, LA, with the 2024 Pokémon North American Championships kicking off from June 7 to 9, and it is the last chance trainers have to get those crucial Worlds qualifying points.

For those unable to attend the event in Louisana, though, plenty of streams are happening over the weekend to showcase the main matches. So, depending on what you’re interested in, there is something for everyone.
