Pokémon Champions | Season M-8 Battle Pass Goes Live with Grisham Cosmetics and Mega Rewards

Ranked Battles Season M-8 begins with a new Premium Battle Pass featuring Legends: Z-A’s Grisham outfit set!

Pokémon Champions has opened Ranked Battles Season M-8 under Regulation M-C rules, running until early December. The accompanying Season M-8 Battle Pass is available immediately. Free rewards include Inteleon, various tickets and coupons, trainer icons, and 10,000 VP. The Premium Battle Pass (purchasable) adds Salamence, Garchomp, Salamencite, Garchompite Z, additional icons, and a full Grisham outfit set drawn from Pokémon Legends: Z-A—including leather shoes, apron pants, satchel, chef top, glasses, and slick-back hairstyle.

Champion Tier and the top Master Ball ranks open one week after the season start. Players earn Season Points through Ranked Battles and competitions to level the pass; the Premium track unlocks the higher-value cosmetics and Mega Stones. This continues the game’s regular cadence of monthly seasons and limited-time reward tracks while tying into the broader Legends: Z-A ecosystem that has been active throughout 2026.
