Summary
Pokemon Champions starts rolling out on iOS and Android on June 17 once maintenance ends at 06:00 UTC, putting the mobile launch at 7 a.m. BST in the UK.
The 4-hour outage begins at 02:00 UTC and takes the Nintendo Switch version offline too, with downtime starting June 16 in the US evening.
Nintendo also warned existing Switch players to link a Nintendo Account on first mobile launch if they want to use the same account; otherwise, they must reinstall later to connect it.
The release brings the battle-focused app to phones a few months after its Switch debut, letting players recruit Pokemon from Pokemon Home or the in-game Roster Ranch instead of exploring a traditional world.
