Pokemon to Scan Government IDs in Japan to Fight Card Scalping

The Pokémon Company says it is exploring a system that would scan government-issued IDs (Japan’s My Number Card) to gate purchases of priority lottery items, certain Pokémon Centre Online products, and event registrations in Japan. The ID would be scanned via smartphones using an external service, with no ID number stored, and the plan is set to roll out in August 2026. The My Number Card isn’t mandatory, and it may take 1–2 months to receive after registration.

Play! Pokémon Responds to Firestar73 Controversy With Orlando Ruling Clarifications

Play! Pokémon released a detailed statement explaining two penalties at the Orlando Regionals: a Swiss Round 13 TCG match where headphones were thrown onto the table, disrupting the game and resulting in a match loss, and a GO Grand Finals bracket reset where a player was warned for table‑shaking and later penalized with a game loss; the organization says it will uphold the judges’ decisions and continue listening to players and judges to refine rules and penalties. The statement has drawn reactions from Firestar73 and Makani disputing details, and a Pokémon Professor was removed from the official Discord after questioning the ruling. The ongoing controversy has the community debating penalties, celebrations, and how rules should be enforced at future events.
