寶可夢冠軍賽登陸 Switch
Pokémon Champions, released on April 8, 2026, is a fresh take on the franchise designed exclusively for competitive battles.
於2026年4月8日發行的《寶可夢冠軍》(ㄆㄛˇㄎㄜˇㄇㄥˊㄍㄨㄢㄨㄣˋㄐㄩㄣ)，是該系列專為競技對戰設計的全新作品。
Developed by The Pokémon Works, this title moves away from traditional RPG adventures to create a streamlined environment for multiplayer combat.
本作由The Pokémon Works開發，摒棄了傳統的RPG冒險模式，旨在打造一個簡化的多元對戰環境。
Players can enjoy Single and Double Battles, with the latter serving as the official format for tournaments, including the Pokémon Video Game Championships (VGC).
玩家可以進行單打或雙打對戰，其中雙打是包含寶可夢世界錦標賽在內等官方賽事的標準賽制。
A standout gameplay mechanic is the Omni Ring, which enables Mega Evolution and adds significant strategic depth.
遊戲中一項顯著的機制是「全能指環」(Omni Ring)，它能啟用超級進化，並大幅提升戰術深度。
Integration with Pokémon HOME allows fans to bring their favorite creatures into the mix, while the game’s Victory Point system encourages gameplay-based team building.
透過與Pokémon HOME的整合，粉絲們能將自己心儀的寶可夢帶入遊戲，而遊戲的「勝利點數」(Victory Point)系統則鼓勵玩家基於實戰來進行隊伍構築。
Though currently available on Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo Switch 2, a mobile version is expected later this year.
雖然目前僅在Nintendo Switch與Nintendo Switch 2上架，但預計今年稍晚將推出手機版。
This free-to-start title features optional cosmetic upgrades and a seasonal Battle Pass, making it an accessible entry point for both newcomers and veteran trainers.
這款免費遊玩的遊戲包含可選購的造型升級與賽季戰鬥通行證，無論對新手還是資深訓練家來說，都是容易上手的入口。
By separating the competitive scene from mainline RPGs, Pokémon Champions serves as a dedicated platform for the esports community to evolve, solidifying its place as the official home of professional play.
透過將競技場景與主線RPG區隔開來，《寶可夢冠軍》成為電子競技社群發展的專屬平台，鞏固了其作為職業對戰官方基地的地位。
