The game's reveal trailer confirmed several key features, including full-fledged Pokemon Home support. Thanks to this inclusion, Pokemon Champions will allow players to import their pocket monsters from a variety of other games, including Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, Pokemon Legends: Arceus, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, and Pokemon GO. The Switch-exclusive Pokemon Let's Go, Pikachu and Eevee titles are also on the list of Pokemon Home-supported games, as are all the 3DS entries in the franchise compatible with Pokemon Bank.
This is the most creative Pokemon game ever. It basically replaces Pokemon Showdown in one fell swoop. What I like is that people don't need to hack to play the game like it's supposed to. Why even bother with unofficial rules and bans that make no sense, when Pokemon does all the thinking for us?
I'm really hoping this game will get a PvE mode for casual players such as myself. I've never been into the competitive side of Pokemon but this game looks awesome! Definitely reminds me of Pokemon Stadium. It's super cool you can pick the nature of your Pokemon and adjust stats as needed too.
This is just official Pokemon Showdown at this point. Can't wait to prove I have more Pokemon to attack with in the official competitive Pokemon arms race.
