Regulation MC Adds 34 More Pokémon to Champions

Pokémon Champions’ Regulation MC update has expanded the legal roster with 34 additional Pokémon, giving builders a fresh batch of options to test before the format settles. For a doubles-focused game, that kind of roster change can matter quickly: even a few new support moves, defensive typings, or speed tiers can reshape common leads and matchup planning.

The main takeaway for competitive players is to treat this as a live metagame shift rather than a simple collection update. If you already have a core prepared for Regulation MC, recheck its answers into newly legal threats before taking it into serious play. Teams that were comfortable into the previous field may now need different speed control, safer switch patterns, or broader defensive coverage.

This is also a good time to revisit SP spreads. With Champions using its own Stat Points system instead of traditional EVs and IVs, newly added Pokémon may find efficient benchmarks faster than expected, especially if they fill narrow roles better than older options.
