During last night’s Pokemon Presents, a new game was revealed. Pokemon Champions is a new game coming to Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android and features battles between Pokemon.
The game is being planned by Game Freak and developed by The Pokemon Works, the team behind Pokemon Sleep. While not much is known about the gameplay, the game does appear to be focused on online play, with a hard focus on previous multiplayer experiences in past Pokemon games at the beginning of the trailer.
