Pokémon Company Unveils New Android Battle Sim: Pokémon Champions

Yesterday, February 27th, marked Pokémon Day — a celebration of all things Pokémon. To honor the occasion, The Pokémon Company treated fans to a special Pokémon Presents stream packed with exciting announcements. Among the reveals were new details about Pokémon Legends: Z-A, a sneak peek at upcoming episodes of Pokémon Concierge, and the introduction of a brand-new competitive battle experience called Pokémon Champions.

Of all the news shared, Pokémon Champions has quickly become one of the most anticipated titles. Developed by The Pokémon Works in collaboration with Game Freak, this game is exclusively focused on competitive battling. That means no catching Pokémon, no traveling through tall grass, and no Gym Badges—just intense, strategic battles from start to finish.

What Else Do We Know About Pokémon Champions?

Pokémon Champions is designed as a multiplayer-centric experience with cross-platform play, allowing players to battle seamlessly across Nintendo Switch and mobile devices. While specific gameplay modes have yet to be detailed, the promise of varied and engaging battle formats is already generating buzz.

One of the standout features of Pokémon Champions is its integration with Pokémon Home. This means you’ll be able to import some of your favorite Pokémon from previous games into this new competitive arena. However, not every Pokémon will be available at launch — only a curated selection will be battle-ready when the game first drops.

With Pokémon Champions, The Pokémon Company appears to be carving out a dedicated space for serious trainers who crave high-stakes, distraction-free battles. It’s a fresh direction that highlights their commitment to evolving the franchise beyond the traditional RPG format.

Until more information is revealed, fans can enjoy the official announcement trailer above. You can also follow updates directly on the game's [ttpp] official website.
