Pokémon VGC Rebrands as Pokémon Champions for a 2026 Competitive Era

Pokémon's VGC will move to the Pokémon Champions platform in 2026, with Champions launching on Nintendo Switch (and a free Switch 2 upgrade) on April 8, 2026. The first official events are Global Challenge I (May 1–4) and the Indianapolis Regional Championships (May 29–31; registration opens April 1), with the 2026 World Championships (Aug 29–30) also using Champions as the main battle platform; a mobile release is planned later in the year with detailed regulations on the Pokémon site.

Champions Launches with Final Evolutions Only, Narrowing the Pokédex at Start

Pokemon Champions will launch on Nintendo Switch 2 and mobile with only fully evolved Pokémon from each evolutionary line; non-evolved forms won't be playable at launch, which could constrain the competitive meta and force players to adapt as earlier evolutions may be added later. The game is free-to-start on April 8, with mobile versions arriving later this year.
