Pokémon™ Champions Junior

You can battle with Pokémon, including with Mega-Evolved Pokémon like Mega Dragonite, against other players in the Pokémon™ Champions Junior game—which you can use to participate in official Pokémon Video Game Championship events! These single and double battles use familiar mechanics from previous Pokémon series games such as Pokémon types, Abilities, and moves, enabling the rich and varied battle strategies you may already know and love.

You can compete online* in Ranked Battles against players from near and far, or try Casual Battles for some easygoing fun. You can also have Private Battles with just your friends and family.

Team up with partner Pokémon from other Pokémon series games with Pokémon HOME

You can bring certain Pokémon from Pokémon GO and other Pokémon series RPGs onto your squad** in Pokémon Champions Junior through Pokémon HOME***, the cloud service for the Nintendo Switch™ 2 and Nintendo Switch systems, and compatible mobile devices. Then you can use your in-game Victory Points (VP) to train the members of your squad. Hone their Attack, Defense, and other stats, and even alter their Abilities and moves to try out different strategies in battle.

Additionally, if you store a Chesnaught, Delphox, Greninja, or Eternal Flower Floette you befriended during the Pokémon Legends: Z-A game in Pokémon HOME and bring them to Pokémon Champions Junior as visitors, you can obtain their corresponding Mega Stones from your in-game mailbox in Pokémon Champions Junior!
