Pokemon Set Rotation has been announced for 2010 – 2011 Season

“In the interest of maintaining a healthy tournament environment, Pokémon Organized Play removes older sets from the Modified format at the beginning of each new tournament season. Each rotation challenges existing players to create new strategies while enabling new players to get into Organized Play with a minimal investment.”

“Pokémon will continue to rotate sets each year to ensure that our Organized Play environment remains healthy and vital moving forward.”

 The Modified format for the 2010-2011 season will consist of the following sets:

 Diamond & Pearl—Majestic Dawn

 Diamond & Pearl—Legends Awakened

Diamond & Pearl—Stormfront

Platinum

Platinum—Rising Rivals

 Platinum—Supreme Victors

 Platinum—Arceus

 Rumble

 HeartGold & SoulSilver

HS—Unleashed

 HS Trainer Kit

Black Star Promo Cards numbered DP22 and higher and Black Star Promo Cards numbered HGSS01 and higher.

 In addition, future Pokémon TCG sets will become legal as they are released, per the Pokémon Organized Play Tournament Rules.

Gnome Games hosts Free Pokémon Tournaments every Saturday morning at 10:00 at the Gnome Games Tournament Center, and the Modified Format rules are enforced for these events. 

We also host Free Pokémon Leagues Monday & Friday afternoons at the Gnome Games Tournament Center and Sunday afternoons at Gnome Games East Town Mall.  During leagues players may play with non-modified decks, however during the peak of the Tournament Season we may restrict League Play to Modified Tournament Format Decks to help local players get ready for the tournaments.
