Following the announcement that the next Pokemon World Championship was being held in Honolulu, The Pokemon Company has announced it has donated $200k to the Hawaii Wildfire Relief Fund. The 2023 Pokemon World Championships took place over the weekend in Yokohama, Japan, where it was announced that Honolulu, the capital of Hawai'i, would be where the next tournament is held in 2024.
