| The first International Challenge featuring the Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon games is here!

| Competition Rules |
| • Items are allowed, but Trainers may not have duplicate items in their Battle Team. • Register three to six of your Lv. 1–100 Pokémon to your Battle Team. • All Pokémon in this competition will automatically become Lv. 50 for the duration of each match. • Three of the Pokémon you register to your Battle Team will be chosen to battle in each match. • A 10-minute time limit for each player will automatically be enforced in-game, beginning at the start of each battle. When a player’s time limit expires, that player will lose the game. • At the beginning of each battle, players have 90 seconds to select three Pokémon with which to battle. • At the beginning of each turn, players have 60 seconds to select a move or change the Pokémon in battle. If a player has not made his or her selections at the end of this period, the game will automatically make selections for the player. • Players may battle up to 15 games per day of the competition.
