It's been confirmed that "select entrants" in the top 300 finalists of the 2024 Pokemon Trading Card Game Illustration Contest have been disqualified due to allegedly violating the "official contest rules."
Earlier this month, the top 300 finalists of this year's Pokemon TCG Illustration Contest were revealed. The results have been a long time coming – entries were submitted between October 12 last year and the end of January this year – and you can imagine the wait for the artists competing has felt even longer. The prizes are huge – alongside cash prizes for the top spot as well as a select number of runners-up, the grand prize winner and those who submit the best standard card and 'EX' card illustrations will have their entries turned into real-life promo cards.
