Pokémon Society Give it a Go!

These sessions are an amazing way to meet fellow Pokémon fans and make friends related to your interests. We always have a big turnout, and our members are friendly (we don't bite, we promise)!

We have plenty of activities: battles, shiny hunting, TCG and more!

Best of all, these GIAG sessions are completely free to attend, meaning you don't have to buy a membership until later and you can have a taste of what Staffs Pokémon Society is all about.

Our first few sessions of the year are Give It A Go Sessions — meaning they’re completely free to attend and no membership is needed until after October 17th 2024.
