NYC Pokémon Store Rebrands to The Trainer Court After Nintendo Branding Concerns

A Manhattan Pokémon card shop known as Poké Court was robbed at gunpoint in January. Nintendo reportedly reached out with concerns about the store’s name and Poké Ball logo, leading the owners to rename the shop The Trainer Court and swap in a new logo. The business will continue offering cards, events, and tournaments, including a Pokémon Day event on February 27; The Pokémon Company said it wasn’t involved in the branding changes.
