Pokémon Champions is shaping up to be one of the most exciting competitive Pokémon releases in years. Rather than focusing on exploration, story progression, or gym battles, the game is built entirely around Pokémon battles. Players can bring Pokémon from Pokémon HOME, recruit additional species through the Recruit Ranch system, and build teams using rental Pokémon unlocked with Victory Points.

Because Pokémon Champions focuses on battling, not every Pokémon from the National Pokédex is currently available. Instead, the game launches with a curated roster featuring hundreds of Pokémon from across multiple generations, including many fan favorites, competitive staples, and a large selection of Mega Evolutions.

In this guide, we’ll take a look at the confirmed launch roster and every Pokémon currently available in Pokémon Champions.

Pokémon Champions Launch Roster Overview

The launch roster pulls Pokémon from every major generation, starting with Kanto and extending all the way through Paldea. The selection includes iconic starters, legendary competitive picks, popular Mega Evolutions, and many of the strongest Pokémon from modern competitive formats.

One of the biggest highlights is the return of Mega Evolution. Numerous Pokémon can Mega Evolve during battle, giving players access to classic favorites such as Mega Charizard X, Mega Charizard Y, Mega Gengar, Mega Tyranitar, Mega Metagross, Mega Lucario, and many others.

The roster also includes many Pokémon commonly seen in competitive play, including Garchomp, Excadrill, Toxapex, Corviknight, Grimmsnarl, Dragapult, Kingambit, Gholdengo, Palafin, Garganacl, Incineroar, Glimmora, and Archaludon.

Mega Evolutions Return in Pokémon Champions

Mega Evolution appears to be one of the central battle mechanics in Pokémon Champions. The launch roster includes dozens of Mega-capable Pokémon spanning multiple generations.

Some of the most notable Mega Evolutions currently confirmed include Mega Venusaur, Mega Charizard X, Mega Charizard Y, Mega Blastoise, Mega Gengar, Mega Kangaskhan, Mega Tyranitar, Mega Blaziken, Mega Metagross, Mega Garchomp, Mega Lucario, Mega Gallade, Mega Lopunny, Mega Greninja, Mega Delphox, Mega Chesnaught, Mega Scizor, Mega Mawile, Mega Sableye, Mega Altaria, Mega Salamence-style equivalents, and many more unique forms introduced specifically for Pokémon Champions.

This gives players a huge amount of flexibility when building teams around offensive powerhouses, defensive walls, weather teams, or balanced compositions.
