All Pokémon Scarlet and Purple Arena Champions

All Pokémon Scarlet and Purple Arena Champions - mandatory pokemon scarlet purple arena guide champion 00 01 - Mandatory.gg

On this page you will find the list of Paldea Arena ChampionsThe Pokémon they possess are also available for your first matchup, as well as the Pokémon they possess in your first matchup. The reason we call it a first match-up is because you'll be able to face them again at a much higher level after defeating the Pokémon League.

Note that the last Pokémon of each Champion is not exactly the type of arena. The Champion will always use Teracrystallisation after casting its ultimate Pokémon, at which point it takes on the Arena type. As a reminder, Teracrystallisation cancels both of a Pokémon's original types.

Again, you can play the arenas in any order you like, but we've listed them from weakest to most difficult.

Our guide to the ideal order of all game objectives.
