Do you have a Pokémon party that you can't wait to battle with against top Trainers? Join the Think Fast Competition, an Online Competition featuring players from around the world! This challenge emphasizes speed, speed, and more speed—you’ll have to make snap decisions about which Pokémon and moves to use. With only a 30-second preview time, and just 15 seconds to choose your next move, time is of the essence! The match time limit is also only 10 minutes, so you should have plenty of time to squeeze in a couple of extra battles.
The Think Fast Competition features Single Battles, and every Pokémon in the National Pokédex is eligible except Mewtwo, Mew, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Celebi, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Jirachi, Deoxys, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Phione, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Reshiram, Zekrom, Kyurem, Keldeo, Meloetta, Genesect, Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde. All the Pokémon in your party will be set to Level 50 automatically for the duration of the battle—this goes for Pokémon above
and below Level 50.
Registration is open until Thursday, June 5, 2014, at 23:59 UTC. Space is limited, so don’t delay! To compete, you'll need a Pokémon Trainer Club account and your own copy of the
Pokémon X or
Pokémon Y video game with a party of eligible Pokémon. Please read and accept the regulations on the
Pokémon Global Link before the battle period begins.
The competition goes from Friday, June 6, 2014, at 00:00 UTC until Sunday, June 8, 2014, at 23:59 UTC. Trainers will be limited in the number of battles they can compete in per day. Consult the tournament regulations for details. Play hard and try to reach the top of the leaderboards, which will be posted after the competition ends.
