Pokémon Champions Global Challenge II Registration: UK Deadline and How to Enter

Pokémon Champions Global Challenge II registration is open until Monday 2 November 2026 at 01:59 GMT in the UK. Open Battle → Online Competitions, choose 2027 Global Challenge II and register your Battle Team before the deadline. Matches are already running, but late entry is allowed.

This is a Regulation Set M-C Double Battle tournament. Finish three matches with a win or loss to qualify for male Basculegion, and you can also earn Championship Points if you have the required accounts linked. Choose your Battle Team carefully before confirming your entry, because that team must be registered when you sign up.

Pokémon Champions Global Challenge II Registration Deadline in the UK

Pokémon calls this the 2027 Global Challenge II because it is part of the 2027 Championship Series, although the event takes place in October and November 2026. The competition ends in GMT, while the earlier registration opening date was during British Summer Time.

Registration and battles close together. The US dates change from PDT to PST during the event, so use the UK deadline in the table rather than assuming the American time stays on the same offset.

How to Complete Pokémon Champions Global Challenge II Registration

1. Launch Pokémon Champions and open Battle.
2. Select Online Competitions and choose 2027 Global Challenge II.
3. Select and review the Battle Team you want to use.
4. Check the Regulation Set M-C competition rules.
5. Confirm your entry before 01:59 GMT on 2 November.
6. Return to the competition menu to start your Double Battles.

Pokémon requires you to register a Battle Team as part of signing up. Review the Pokémon, moves and other choices in that team against the event rules before you submit it.

Don’t leave team selection until the last minute. With Pokémon Champions Global Challenge II registration closing at the same time as the competition, time spent fixing an ineligible team is time you can’t spend battling.

Regulation M-C Rules and Team Eligibility

The tournament uses Double Battles under Regulation Set M-C. Choose four Pokémon for each battle. Mega Evolution is among the permitted mechanics. Your chosen team must follow the regulation’s Pokémon eligibility rules, which are listed in the competition details.

Our Regulation M-C breakdown explains the format, and our Doubles team ideas can help you prepare. The 2027 Championship Series uses Junior (born 2015 or later), Senior (2011–2014) and Masters (2010 or earlier) age divisions.

Can You Still Register After Global Challenge II Started?

Yes. Pokémon Champions Global Challenge II registration remains open even after battles have started. You can join on 31 October or 1 November, provided you register your Battle Team and complete your matches before the closing time.

You don’t need a high ranking to qualify for Basculegion. Play at least three matches that finish with a recorded win or loss, and you meet the participation requirement. A match without a recorded result isn’t part of those qualifying results.

Basculegion and Championship Points Requirements

The participation Pokémon is male Basculegion. Once the event has ended and the final rankings are processed, check the results via Battle → Online Competitions. Eligible players can then collect Basculegion from the in-game mailbox.

Championship Points are separate from the Pokémon reward. Pokémon requires a Trainer Central account before registration, linked through Play! Pokémon Access with the correct Pokémon Champions Support ID. Keep the connection active until rewards are allocated. Our Championship Points guide covers the account steps and errors.

Pokémon Champions Global Challenge II Registration Not Working?

Check that you’re looking under Online Competitions rather than standard Ranked Battles, and that you have selected the 2027 Global Challenge II rather than the earlier Global Challenge I. Also check the deadline: entries stop at 01:59 GMT on Monday 2 November.

If the game won’t accept your Battle Team, check it against Regulation Set M-C in the competition’s in-game rules. A Play! Pokémon Access connection is needed for Championship Points, but you can register and compete without linking it.

Complete Pokémon Champions Global Challenge II registration with time left to finish at least three battles. The tournament will not accept new entries or additional qualifying matches after the deadline, even if your team was ready beforehand.
