The next location for the Pokémon World Championships has been revealed and it'll be located in the United States' Capital.

Following the end of the 2018 PokÃ©mon World Championships, the folks over on the official PokÃ©mon Twitter announced where the next competition will be held. Which means it's time to stop slacking and get training if you want to be the very best like noÂ one ever was.

The 2019 PokÃ©mon World Championships will be held in my very own nation's capital, Washington D.C. This year, three games were present at the championship,Â PokkÃ©n Tournament DX, PokÃ©mon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon,Â andÂ the TCG game of the same name. Perhaps next year we'll see the addition of the next generation which hasn't been given a name yet when it comes to Nintendo Switch sometime next year.

In other World Championships news, Paul Ruiz, the first ever Latin American champion, took home the gold in the MastersÂ Division of the tournament for UltraÂ Sun and UltraÂ Moon, so hats off to him for getting out there and winning. Furthermore, Nintendo is still revealing lots of new information aboutÂ Let's Go, Pikachu!Â andÂ Let's Go, Eevee! Most recently, they showed offÂ a new trailer for some mega evolutions featuring some of the series' most iconic monsters.

If you'd like to, you can preorderÂ Let's Go! PikachuÂ andÂ Let's Go! EeveeÂ on Amazon right now. They'll both be available exclusively for Nintendo Switch on November 16.
