It appears there might be some confusion regarding a game titled “Pokémon Close Combat.” As of now, there is no official Pokémon game by that name. However, recent announcements have introduced Pokémon Champions, a new battle-focused game, and there is also Pokkén Tournament, a Pokémon fighting game released in 2015. Here’s an overview of these games:
Pokémon Champions
Announced during the Pokémon Presents showcase on February 27, 2025, Pokémon Champions is an upcoming cross-platform multiplayer game developed in collaboration with Game Freak and The Pokémon Works. This game emphasizes Pokémon battles, allowing players to engage in strategic combat using their favorite Pokémon. It incorporates familiar mechanics such as Pokémon types, abilities, and moves. Notably, Pokémon Champions will be available on the Nintendo Switch and mobile devices, with connectivity to Pokémon Home, enabling players to transfer Pokémon from other games. Currently, the game is in development, with no specified launch date.
Pokkén Tournament
Released in 2015, Pokkén Tournament is a fighting game developed by Bandai Namco Entertainment that combines elements from the Tekken series with characters from the Pokémon franchise. Players engage in one-on-one battles using various Pokémon, with gameplay shifting between “Field Phase,” allowing free movement around the arena, and “Duel Phase,” where movements are relative to each other, akin to traditional fighting games. The game was initially released for Japanese arcades and later for the Wii U in 2016. An enhanced port, Pokkén Tournament DX, was released for the Nintendo Switch in 2017, featuring additional characters and new game modes.
