Pokémon Day, celebrated on February 27th, brought exciting news from The Pokémon Company's Pokémon Presents stream. Highlights included updates on Pokémon Legends: Z-A and teasers for Pokémon Concierge and the upcoming battle simulator, Pokémon Champions.

We're particularly thrilled about Pokémon Champions, a collaborative effort between The Pokémon Company and Game Freak. This game focuses exclusively on competitive battling, omitting features like catching Pokémon, exploring the wild, and collecting Gym Badges.

What We Know About Pokémon Champions

Pokémon Champions is a multiplayer experience with cross-platform play on Nintendo Switch and mobile devices. While details on specific game modes remain scarce, multiple modes are planned.

A key feature is its integration with Pokémon Home, allowing players to import favorite Pokémon from previous games. However, not all Pokémon will be available at launch; only a selection will be usable initially.

Pokémon Champions appears poised to provide a dedicated competitive battling experience, free from the distractions of the main series games. For now, enjoy the trailer below, and stay tuned for further details.
