Overview
The Gdańsk Regional Championships is an official TPCi Regional-level event for Pokémon VGC, TCG and Pokémon GO. It is the third Regional-level event of the 2026 season in the European circuit.
It is played with VGC Regulation Set H, using open team lists.
A little bit of history
Poland has been part of the Europe region of the official TPCi circuit for many years. Apart from local events, it has only hosted major events since 2023! Poland’s greatest VGC success is American-Pole Diana Bros‘s win at the 2016 Madison Spring Regional.
The most recent tournament held in Poland was the 2025 Gdańsk Regional, also played with the Regulation Set H in November 2024. The finals saw 2023 Worlds semifinalist Federico Camporesi defeat then-2-time International Champion Marco Silva to win his first Regional title in the Masters division. Both finalists went on to win International Championships later in the 2025 season (LAIC for Marco, NAIC for Federico), and had a rematch in the NAIC finals!
