Pokémon Day, celebrated on February 27th, brought a wave of excitement for fans with a special Pokémon Presents stream. Among the highlights was the unveiling of the much-anticipated Pokémon Legends: Z-A video game, along with teasers for new episodes of Pokémon Concierge and the upcoming battle sim, Pokémon Champions. We're particularly thrilled about Pokémon Champions, a game focused solely on competitive battling, developed by The Pokémon Works in collaboration with Game Freak. In Pokémon Champions, there's no catching Pokémon, no wandering through tall grass, and no collecting Gym Badges—just pure, competitive play.
What Else Do We Know About Pokémon Champions, the Upcoming Battle Sim?
Pokémon Champions promises a robust multiplayer experience, featuring cross-platform play and availability on both Nintendo Switch and mobile devices. While specific details on the various game modes remain undisclosed, the anticipation builds for what's to come. A key feature of Pokémon Champions is its integration with Pokémon Home, allowing players to import some of their favorite Pokémon from previous games. However, it's important to note that not all Pokémon will be immediately accessible, with only a select group available at launch.
With Pokémon Champions, The Pokémon Company aims to provide a dedicated space for competitive play, focusing on high-stakes battles without the typical elements found in the main series games. As we await more details on this exciting new title, you can view the announcement trailer below.
Stay updated with the latest news on Pokémon Champions by visiting their official website. In the meantime, don't miss out on our coverage of A Perfect Day, an intriguing new time-loop narrative puzzle game set in the year 1999.
