- As soon as your match is over, please call a Judge or staff member, then use your smartphone to submit your match result.

Requests to all attendees
【To Players】
- Let us all keep the rules to heart and make an enjoyable event that is not just about the outcome of the matches, but also, and most importantly, about sharing our love of the Pokémon Trading Card Game!
- Participants are expected to know and comply with the Match Etiquette described in section 2-2 of the Floor Rules.
- Players should always follow Judges’ and staff member’s instructions.
【To accompanying guardians】
- Spectators should stay within the designated watching areas and observe proper etiquette when watching a game, so as not to interfere with the tournament and matches.
- Spectators who fail to observe these rules may be asked by a Judge (or staff member) to refrain from spectating.
- Do not interfere with a match or players in any way.
- Please maintain a reasonable distance from matches in progress, to avoid distracting the players.
- Please refrain from discussing matches in progress within earshot of the table.
- Should a disruptive spectator be responsible for a player currently engaged in tournament play, that player may receive penalties as though they had engaged in disruptive behavior themselves.
- This may ultimately result in that player’s disqualification from the tournament, should it become necessary to remove the associated spectator from the event.
