Pokemon Champions Announced for Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android
Pokemon Legends: Z-A received its first gameplay trailer and details during the latest Pokemon Presents, but the company also announced another title. It’s called Pokemon Champions and is coming to Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android. Check out the announcement trailer, though it’s primarily live-action footage and CG.
Developed by The Pokemon Works with Game Freak handling the panning, Pokemon Champions focuses on battles (with the trailer depicting their evolution through the decades). It promises “familiar” mechanics like different Pokemon types and moves, which creates an “environment conducive to rich and varied strategies for new and experienced Trainers alike.”
Interestingly, you don’t have to lean on Pokemon from within the game. With Pokemon HOME, it’s possible to bring classic monsters into battle. It also includes cross-platform play between Nintendo Switch and mobile devices alongside various modes. One would think this means a Ranked experience (among other things), but time will tell.
Pokemon Champions doesn’t have a release date, so stay tuned for more details in the coming months. As for Pokemon Legends: Z-A, it launches in late 2025 for Nintendo Switch, with a Switch 2 release still unconfirmed.
