PikaWorlds

PikaWorlds was a Twitch global emote tied to the 2024 Pokémon World Championships in Honolulu, held from August 16 to 18. The event brought together the Pokémon Trading Card Game, Pokémon video games, Pokémon GO and Pokémon UNITE, with official broadcasts and partnered co-streams running throughout the weekend on Twitch.

"Pika" points to Pikachu and "Worlds" to the championship itself. Pikachu was woven directly into the 2024 Worlds presentation: Twitch viewers could earn Pokémon TCG Live deck-box, coin and card-sleeve cosmetics featuring the 2024 Worlds Pikachu, while partnered Pokémon GO co-streams offered research leading to a special costumed Pikachu. PikaWorlds therefore connected the franchise mascot with the specific championship identity viewers were seeing across the broadcast and its Twitch rewards.

When this emote was active, viewers typed PikaWorlds in Twitch chat to use it. Viewers used PikaWorlds during Pokémon Worlds for Pikachu appearances, championship matches, clutch plays, upsets, title-winning moments and the shared excitement around the Honolulu event and its Twitch rewards.
