India Gets Its Own Competitive Pathway
Pokémon Champions now treats India as a standalone region — a first for the franchise here, since earlier Pokémon VGC titles were locked to consoles not officially sold in the country. Players must select India under Battles → Online Tournament → Region → Asia Pacific → India to take part.
The season runs through six Global Challenges, an Online Qualifier, and finishes with the Grand Finals. Top performers earn a shot at the 2027 Pokémon World Championships, being held in Singapore — the tournament’s first-ever stop in Southeast Asia.
