What this is
The share of under-18 players at Pokémon card-game Regionals by season: about 17% in 2017–18, 16% in 2022–23, 13–14% in 2023–24 and 18% in 2024–25.
How it’s built
- Grouped the per-event shares by season and took the median and the pooled share: 2022–23 median 16.4% (3 events), pooled 16.0%; 2023–24 median 13.1% (6 events), pooled 14.1%.
- 2017–18 and 2024–25 have one event each: 17.4% and 18.0%.
What we assumed
- The season is read from the event’s web address year.An assumption; a misassigned event would move a season’s figure.
- A few North American events stand for a season.The samples are small and not random, so there is no clear trend.
Sanity check
With one event in two of the four seasons, the spread between events is as large as the change between seasons.
Where it comes from
Our calculation from other figures in the trainer’s notes:

- 2017-18: n=1, median of [0.1737] = 0.174
- pooled 173/996 = 0.174
- 2022-23: n=3, median of [0.1515, 0.1637, 0.1648] = 0.164
- pooled 650/4063 = 0.160
- 2023-24: n=6, median of [0.1167, 0.1192, 0.1213, 0.1406, 0.168, 0.1726] = 0.131
- pooled 1656/11752 = 0.141
- 2024-25: n=1, median of [0.1803] = 0.180
- pooled 375/2080 = 0.180
