Pokémon Champions is a free to play online battle simulator available on Switch with a mobile release later. It features ranked, casual and private battles for both singles and doubles, and will be used for VGC tournaments in 2026.

>/vp/ Champions Tournament
The first /vp/ Champions tournaments will be held soon in early June. All anons are invited to participate in a no-banlist, single elimination, BO3 bracket following standard rules, where the winner will be declared the reigning Champion.
Anons interested in joining are advised to list their time zones to determine the best possible tournament time for everyone involved. Registration will be performed with Challonge.

Quick FAQ
>Do I need my own Pokémon to play?
No, the game features a recruitment system, but transferring from Home is recommended to save time and resources.
>What makes the game so much more accessible than before?
All aspects of a Pokémon are customizable with VP, a currency earned simply by playing the game. IVs are also removed.
Ask in the thread if you want any specific Pokémon, and someone will respond.
>Is there single player content?
No.
>Do I need a Nintendo Online subscription?
No.
>What's the starter pack?
US$6.99 one time purchase for 50 training tickets (fully train for free), 30 Teammate Tickets (recruit Pokemon without using VP), 50 extra box space and the LGPE trainer music.
>Is anything locked behind a paywall?
So far everything gameplay relevant is also purchasable with VP. Mega Kalos starters and E-Floette require ZA transfer.

VGC has always been bringing 4 that best counter your opponents 6, it's not like you can only use 4 while they get to play all 6. The match started at the deciding screen that's why you had a good minute to analyze and decide. Your ability to identify what your opponent is most likely to bring is part of the skill required for this game. Git gud.

I wanna see a 3v3 and 4v4 format where you only pick your lead(s) on the team preview, and during battle you are allowed to switch to the other Pokemon on reserve, but once you've picked the remaining 2 the rest of the team is no longer available to choose

i was planning to play this when it comes out in android i got a couple questions
can i trade the pokemons i get here to my home?
is there an individual mode?
is there a mode with low tier pokemons? i'd like to try out couple teams with weak mons and i dont wanna get my ass fucked by some turbo broken pokemon
are they planning to get all the pokemons in champions?
>>
>>59337136
>can i trade the pokemons i get here to my home?
No, and common logic seems to show this will not change.
>is there an individual mode?
not right now, no
>is there a mode with low tier pokemons?
this one seems to be possible in future events. Mainline games does do wacky formats previously like monotype and babies only.
>are they planning to get all the pokemons in champions?
unsure because ALL is quite a tall ask, especially with pokemon that was never legal.
>>

>android i got a couple questions

There is casual, but it's just a place where people test their teams before taking it to the ladder
Maybe one day they will add a meme format like thar for an online tourney.
>are they planning to get all the pokemons in champions?
Maybe?
We have different regulations where different pokemon and items are legal
>>
>>59337142
>>59337146
with individual mode i meant singles mode
>>
>>59337148
oh yeah, then we do have BSS (3v3) and VGC.
If you are referring to sixes, then we dont have that
>>
>>59336567
>>59337098
The game is better with bench Pokemon. It allows teams to have more flexibility in preparing for different matchups, and adds more layers to teambuilding by having multiple teams/modes within the party of 6 (especially relevant currently with double mega). A big flaw in 6v6 is that you can't realistically prepare for the whole meta at once, and you often can't afford to use niche mons that counter certain things since you're forced to bring them in every match.

btw, if you're building a team of 6 like it's 6v6, then you're doing it wrong. You should be building a core of 3-4 and then using the other slots to fill the gaps and make the team more flexible. Just pointing this out while we're on the topic because it's a common trap 6v6 players trying to learn VGC/BSS fall into, and things make more sense after getting over that hurdle.
>>
So will it going mobile finally bring microtransactions so I can buy actually good customization items or will tbis barebones shit be how it is forever?
>>
>>59337248
Barebones forever because GF doesn’t want to let boys wear dresses but investors don’t want to allow customization that directly acknowledges gender
>>
>>59337248
The way they are gonna force you to pay is to buy the game to get the op one off mons like eternal floette and firve you to either buy a champions or home subscription for extra box space.
They already got me to pay the 7 buckaroos for 50 extra boxspaces since 50 was already feeling mighty claustrophobic.

>dumb VGC rules where you build your team but for some reason can only use 4 (four) pokemon, rending most of the creativity DOA. opponent brought his S.Attacker but you left your special wall out? GG man, totally outplayed, totally.
Are you retarded? Having a bench increases creativity, not decreases. When every Pokemon has to come to every battle, every Pokemon must be generally good, meaning you really have to pick from the top of the top. With a bench you can bring a niche Pokemon that only comes out in one in ten matchups to shore up a specific threat, allowing lesser used Pokemon with one strong thing they're good at to shine. Look at Heliolisk. Kind of a shitmon and not one you'd ever bring to a 6v6 game, but in a 4v4 you can keep it on the bench until your opponent has Basculegion and suddenly it's the star of the game. VGC would be a lot more boring if it was 6v6.
>>
>>59337269
I think that wasn't a problem for ZA
>>
>>59337357
Keep in mind the first time you bring in a Pokemon from HOME into Champions the game essentially creates a copy of that Pokemon in Champions separate from the original version still in HOME. For example:
1. You bring in Alakazam with Psychic from HOME with no EV training
2. In Champions, you teach it Psyshock
3. You return it to HOME and it's still the original Alakazam that only knows Psychic
4. You decide to EV train it in its original game then bring it back into Champions
5. The Champions version is still the same version with Psychic and Psyshock without the EV training

You need to spend ingame currency to make stat and move changes to Pokemon, so if you want to save up then bring in a Pokemon as optimal as possible. Ingame currency itself isn't a problem since they throw a lot at you, but if you don't spend then there's very limited box space which is why you might want to use HOME so you can swap Pokemon in and out

Yeah getting a Floette without being spoonfed one from here would have been totally impossible. Literally every single Pokémon has multiple people asking for Floette. I'm trying to trade up to any of the 3 Kalos starters and it's not going well.
>>
>>59338016
It's going to be hell on earth in this general if they don't add Floette to the gacha pool. Tons of mobilefags coming here to beg for one through Home trade.
>>
>>59338066
The Kalos starter grind is pretty terrible too. The most I got was a shitty fucking bank Greninja. If they're going to force you get something from a specific game they should let you ask for a Pokémon in a specific game. It only works for lower generations that can't be transfered backwards.

I just hope they increase the box size somehow since most already hit the 100

At this point should Mysticals be treated like regular Pokemon? If you can get Calyrex you can get Keldeo same with Floette vs Darkrai

I'd prefer they not be.
Maybe if we do a single mythical format without restricteds, but honestly they're not fun to play in double restricteds and the mythical megas are going to be too good outside of restricted formats.

Soak was a Gen V move learned mostly by shitmons and narrow use case for anyone not shit. I've had a grand total of one player back in Great Ball tier try to use it against me a month ago. My impression of Japanese players in other games was also they tended to be the ones who dream up random deep cuts and bullshit.

Just a reminder that Mega Raichu X should have gotten Galvanize.
Yes, Volt Tackle and even Rising Voltage are doing more than Zap Cannon.
Yes, Electric Terrain protects your team from sleep and terrain setter on Mega means you’re getting terrain advantage.
However Mega Raichu Y more than makes up for that with its Speed, coverage, and Zap Cannon not having any drawbacks while paralyzing the opponent too.
X needed Galvanize to really compete.

I don't know why but I have a feeling that they're going to force you to have a Baxcalibur from Z-A to get the mega stone.

>>59338796
Wyrdeer had Gravity instead to ensure Hypnosis hits, although as we see in the match, just gambled on the accuracy more since the meta mons just deal so much damage right away

>>59338816
It's likely one of those weird tech choices against Charizard since when they both Mega at the same turn, Charizard will be slower and thus Sunny Day wins out

It's pretty bizarre seeing Z-A Greninja as some kind of premium currency. Delphox and Chesnaught are too but I had an easier time getting them. Greninja fags are fucking vicious. I've had multiple Pokémon I was offering stolen with a wrong game Greninja and then they put the Pokémon they just stole up asking for another Greninja. And when looking at Greninja listings they ask for shit like blood moon Ursaluna which is way more valuable or Floette. I can understand using Greninja to ask for specific Let's Go Pokémon but the rest no one is ever going to bite. All the starters are stupid easy to obtain in Z-A the problem is owning the game and DLC.

>https://challonge.com/yx8zr5t0

right now we are kind of in a funny situation, since 9 players mean someone has to play more or less rounds.
In a perfect world, we would have about 16 players, but i guess ill do a roll call before it starts. If we have more interested, I suppose we just follow through with the seedings and people who get top seed are just lucky then.
I really have to sleep in soon because its in 7 hours, so im targeting at least 5 hours of sleep

Does this game have any new trainer customization options yet? I bought everything I wanted, played until I had like 130,000 points, and then stopped playing. I'll pick it up again eventually, pokemon is evergreen and is always going to be fun, I'm just wondering if there is a point in going back yet. Without any new pokemon, new held items, new clothing/music/ball tossing styles and shit like that, I don't care for it right now.

Volbeat has prankster tailwind and encore and struggle bug it is not bad

>>59339196
I know 1700 should be enough at least, don't know how low the cut-off gets.
>>
If you watched, what did you think of Japan Nationals and Turin Special Day 1?
Japs are full on cheese bo1 teams.
>>
>>59339484
I hit M2 today at 1800, I'd imagine the cutoff for M3 must be somewhere between 1500-1600.
>>
>>59339577
I love the cheese also that 1hp Sylveon really clutched it hardcore for the arch. Starmie tr was hilarious. That whole game was crazy.
>>
>>59339079
I'm willing to drop if we're still at 9 when it's about to start. I need to go grocery shopping anyways.

Japan Nationals Day 2 begins in a few hours at 8:20pm EST.
https://www.youtube.com/live/u-aSYWCrajE
The previous day must have had a lot of people watching on replays, because the Day 1 stream now has almost 600k views on yt alone. It was more heavily watched than I believed since it probably had untold viewers on niconico rather than the YT stream.
>>
>>59339079
Okay I am back ladies and gents.
So how many anons actually are in the thread right now, like in general?
If we have the needed players, i think we have the 8 man tourney anyways even if someone is a no-show by subbing people in
>>
>>59339777
I'm signed up, and am also in the thread
>>
>>59339777
I'm signed up and in this thread, but I'm also running like 20 minutes late.
>>
So at best we have like 4 people ready, with one of the four being late for another function.
Hmm what now?
I was hoping we have about 6-ish people show up and we can patch it with other not-yet joiners in the thread
>>
>>59339820
I don't mind waiting longer personally, I have all evening.
>>
>>59339777
I almost forgot about it, but I am here rn.

>>59339835

Mobile launch is adding Raichunite X and Y so there'll probably be more items and mons added too

Good games everyone.
Fuck me that was very hard fought every single time

Who is the king of /pcg/?

This was fun. We should do this again once M-B comes out.

Seems kind of anti climactic, not having a finals

>>59340143
Clamsy. I wasn't aware how ass my team fairs against Sand until now so he clean swept me.
>>
Time for dinner. GGs.
>>
>>59340149
wait he won with SAND?
Anyways, what i learnt is that i really choke in bo3 after winning one.
Maybe i should stop overthinking leads

Atleast I lost to the champ.
Friday and clamsy.
You up for a losers bracket?
I play friday for the right to challenge clamsy once again.
If you're both up for it
>>
>>59340157
I'm down if Clamsy is.
>>
>>59340143
Me, apparently. I was pretty confident, but I didn't think I'd go undefeated. GGs again to all.
Still a somewhat hollow victory because I only brought Avalugg to one game (where she didn't get a move off).
>>59340157
I already left the room, but sure.
>>
Welp there goes the inaugural tourney hosted by yours truly.
All in all I had fun.
Many things were learnt.
So hosting by itself isnt an issue, but gathering the members might be in the future might be an issue. I think in the future something along the lines of the weekly draft couyld be good if the members allocate time itself as compared to getting everyone in the same timezones.
>>59340157
Aight sure, i wanna see this, though sadly i closed the room already. I wanna spectate this
>>
I'll make the room then
If I'm correct.
I'll have to fight friday and whoever wins has to beat clamsy twice to be crowned as the true king of /pcg/
Clamsy only needs to win once

Emergency semi-finals between me and Anon. If he beats me he fights Clamsy for champions.

I would sign up especially since we dont need any specific times for this. We can just fight at any point in the week

Didn't I win once and you win once?

Or should we delay that until mobile release? What do anons think

I completely forgot I won that.
But we're still currently tied.
We're both 4-1.
One last tie breaker?

>>59340334
Next tournament is Sneed's(I'm pretty sure it's Sneeds) Draft. Nobody knows when Monoguy's tournament is going to start, but I'm assuming it's around M-B.

>>59340336
You won boss, save it for the Draft.

Too late
This heat cannot be stopped

>>59340364
it is sneed,
well ill let him do the main tasks, and ill support with whatever he needs.
Maybe we really should bring up that Matrix/ Element idea back specifically for draft, since it makes more sense for that

>>59340390
Sounds good, though I'd prefer anything over Element, personally. He needs to make another thread and get the word out again for the tournament. /vp/ is unfortunately casual as all hell and its why Monoguy usually makes a few different threads well before the tournament start just to scrounge up as many people for it as possible.

LIVE
Apparently the time I recieved was wrong.
It has been live for an hour.
>>
Furfrou won me some games for sure. Thunder Wave and Charm outspeeding/tying Jolly/Timid Garchomp and Floette is clutch... Chomp's rock slide couldn't take out even Talonflame in 2 turns due to the Charms.

And you get Roar to send Trick Room/Calm Mind/Shadow Tag users away.

By the way does anyone else find the move timer is fucked up sometimes? I was thinking of my move, about to click Trick Room on Gardevoir seeing they had Froslass in and it was my last turn of Tailwind. Suddenly, a move is selected for me and it protects, which obviously Whimsicott encores. I had that match 100%. So fucked up because I could have SWORN I didn't see the warning numbers come up on my screen to let me know I only had seconds to click a move.
>>
>>59340473
I think I've seen the timer skip around at the beginning of a turn before, but never at the end.
>>
>>59340403
>>59340390
We still have 10 days till M-B is released and have 4/8. If i make another thread now it will probably just sage. I'll keep advertising in this thread and interest will rise closer to release.
