Pokémon Champions, Game Freak's Leaked Multiplayer Game, Officially Revealed

After months of speculation and leaks, Pokémon Champions, a new multiplayer Pokémon battle game, has been officially unveiled! Developed collaboratively by Game Freak and The Pokémon Works (a joint venture between The Pokémon Company and ILCA, the studio behind Pokémon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl), this title focuses squarely on competitive Pokémon battles.

The trailer showcased core-style battles, confirming the inclusion of Mega Evolution and Terastallization. The game promises a diverse roster spanning various Pokémon generations and types.

Crucially, Pokémon Champions will integrate with Pokémon Home, enabling players to transfer their Pokémon collections from other games, finally providing a purpose for those hundreds of Pokémon gathering digital dust.

Currently in development for Nintendo Switch and mobile devices, a release date remains unannounced. However, the game will support Latin American Spanish at launch, alongside other languages common to the Pokémon franchise.

Stay tuned for further updates on Pokémon Champions and other announcements from the recent Pokémon Presents.
