The Nightmare Cup

PoGo Findlay’s fifth PvP Tournament. Please show up early, as we want to START at 2:30pm. We will be setup near the Bandshell in Riverside Park!

This is a FREE event! This is a Swiss style tournament and will have 4+ rounds. The tournament will take about an hour based on past events.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Due to the Lapras Raid Day from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM we have moved the time for the tournament! We will now be starting at 2:30 PM.

Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. Each of the winners will get an official Nightmare Cup pin (1″ Enamel). Each winner will also have the choice of a Pokemon plush OR a $10 Google Play/iTunes App Store gift card.

First 30 players to arrive will get an official Nightmare Cup Die-Cut Sticker and an official Nightmare Cup 1″ Metal Button!
