Pokémon Champions Mobile and Mega Raichu Release Confirmed
Pokémon Champions is launching on mobile platforms on June 17, 2026, bringing the battle-focused game to iOS and Android devices. The game has been available on Nintendo Switch for a couple of months prior to this mobile expansion. Cross-save support is available for players who have already invested time in the Switch version, allowing them to seamlessly continue their progress on mobile devices.
To celebrate the mobile launch, The Pokémon Company is offering a special distribution event. All players who log into the game between June 17 and September 2, 2026 will receive a free Raichu and its two Mega Stones—Raichunite X and Y—available in their in-game mailbox after their first login during the event period. The mobile launch is expected to coincide with the beginning of Regulation M-B, the game’s third ranked season, which will introduce a new roster of playable Pokémon and items to the game.
Pre-registration for Pokémon Champions is now available on the App Store and Google Play, allowing players to download the game immediately upon its June 17 release date.
