Can you use World Championship Pokemon cards in league play?
Hard no, my friend. World Championship cards are basically the Pokemon card game's version of a trophy case - meant for display, not for play. They're a no-go for official matches because they're replicas of the decks used by the champs. Cool to collect, but not for competition.

Unfortunately, nope! World Championship Pokemon cards are super cool for collecting and showing off, but they're not legal in official tournament play. They have a distinct back design and a silver border, which makes them easily identifiable as non-standard cards. So, while they're awesome to have in your collection, you can't use them in official league or tournament battles. It's all about keeping the playing field level and fair for everyone.
