Announcing a campaign linked to Pokémon Legends: Z-A!

To commemorate the release of Pokémon Champions, a campaign will be held within the game where players can receive a Chesnaughtite, Delphoxite, Greninjite, and Floettite stones.

By storing the Chesnaught, Delphox, Greninja, and Eternal Flower Floette a Player have befriended during Pokémon Legends: Z-A in Pokémon HOME and brought them to Pokémon Champions as visitors, he can obtain their Mega Stones from his mailbox in Pokémon Champions.

*A Chesnaughtite stone can be claimed by bringing over a Chesnaught, a Delphoxite stone can be claimed by bringing over a Delphox, a Greninjite stone can be claimed by bringing over a Greninja, and a Floettite stone can be claimed by bringing over an Eternal Flower Floette from Pokémon HOME to Pokémon Champions.

*These Mega Stones cannot be claimed when bringing over a Chesnaught, Delphox, Greninja, and Eternal Flower Floette that have been befriended outside of Pokémon Legends: Z-A.

*Chesnaughtite, Delphoxite, Greninjite, and Floettite can be claimed on both the Nintendo Switch version and mobile device version.

*The Mega Stones available in this campaign may be unlocked in the shop or other areas of the game at a later date.

Bring Pokémon as visitors from Pokémon HOME

By linking Pokémon Champions to Pokémon HOME, a Player will be able to bring certain Pokémon to Pokémon Champions as visitors, as well as send visiting Pokémon back to Pokémon HOME.

A Player can aim for the title of champion alongside Pokémon he has befriended thus far in Pokémon Legends: Z-A, Pokémon GO, and other titles in the Pokémon series.

*Only Pokémon that appear in Pokémon Champions will be able to visit from Pokémon HOME.

*Pokémon obtained in Pokémon Champions cannot be sent to Pokémon HOME.

*Pokémon can only be sent to a game through Pokémon HOME if they appear in that game.

*If Pokémon brought over as visitors know moves that cannot be used in Pokémon Champions, you’ll need to change those moves via training.

*Any training that Pokémon underwent in Pokémon Champions won’t be retained when they’re back in Pokémon HOME, but if they visit Pokémon Champions again, they’ll arrive trained in exactly the same way as before.

*If a visiting Pokémon leaves Pokémon Champions, then returns in a different form, the results of any training that Pokémon had undergone in Pokémon Champions will be wiped clean.
