Pokémon Champions, a competitive battle simulator, is now available on mobile alongside its Switch and Switch 2 versions. While the mobile experience is nearly identical and cross-platform, competing at the highest level like the World Championships still requires a Switch, raising questions about why mobile players are excluded from top-tier competition.
