About

PokéStats was founded in late 2016 by American player Tate Whitesell, who became interested in the competitive Pokémon TCG after watching the 2016 World Championships but realized the game lacked a serious resource for statistics-based content. With the encouragement and assistance of many top-rated players, Tate grew PokéStats into one of the preeminent media sources for the competitive Pokémon TCG, featuring a tournament database, metagame predictions, live event coverage, a Twitter account with thousands of followers, and more. PokéStats now employs a dedicated staff to assist in providing the best possible content. We hope that PokéStats continues to be a helpful and respected resource for as long as it is up and running!
