Overview

The Portland Regionals is an official TPCI Regional-level event for PokĆ©mon VGC, TCG and PokĆ©mon GO.Ā It is the seventh Regionals of theĀ 2023 seasonĀ in the North American circuit, and, pending an announcement, very likely the first in the travel award race for the 2024 season’s first IC.

A little bit of history

The United StatesĀ has been part of the North America region of the official TPCI circuit since the very beginning, also being home to the TPCI headquarters. It has hosted multiple major events, including Regional Championships, old-era National Championships, all editions of the North America International ChampionshipsĀ and almost all World Championships (only excluding 2013, 2022 and the upcoming 2023).Ā The United States’ greatest VGC success are the four World Championship wins achieved byĀ Ray RizzoĀ (2010, 2011 andĀ 2012) andĀ Wolfe GlickĀ (2016), not even counting being the home country of 6 Senior Division and 5 Junior Division World Champions too.

The most recent tournament held in the United StatesĀ was theĀ 2023 Fort Wayne Regionals, played in April 2023. The finals saw Knoxville Regional ChampionĀ Justin TangĀ defeat AmericanĀ Joseph UgarteĀ to achieve his second major title in less than two months since his stellar debut!

The last time there was an event in Oregon was theĀ 2020 Portland Regionals, played in PokĆ©mon Ultra SunĀ & PokĆ©mon Ultra MoonĀ with the VGC19 Ultra Series ruleset in November 2019. TheĀ finalsĀ saw AmericanĀ Joseph UgarteĀ defeat ChineseĀ Wang BingjieĀ to achieve his first-ever major title.

AmericanĀ James Evans, theĀ 2018 Senior Division World Champion, defeated BrazilianĀ Gabriel AgatiĀ in the NAIC finals.
