Act I · The Toolkit

Every tool for Champions, in one app.

From first draft to final turn, the toolkit covers the whole competitive loop. No filler from other games, no illegal sets. If it is in TopCut VGC, it works in Pokémon Champions.

Build

Champions Pokédex

Every Champions-legal Pokémon, around 300 of them, with stats, types, abilities, and proven competitive sets. Nothing that cannot actually be used.

Team Builder

Build and save full teams with EVs, natures, items, and moves. Import from PokéPaste in one tap, export to share with your testing group.

Legality Validation

Every slot is checked against the current regulation as you build. Catch an illegal item or move before your opponent does.

Calculate

Damage Calculator

Doubles damage calcs powered by the engine the VGC community trusts, prefilled from your own saved sets. Color-coded KO chances so you can read a range at a glance.

Speed Tiers

Level 50 speed tiers at a glance: base, invested, max, and Choice Scarf columns. Always know who moves first before you commit.

Study

Nine Training Modes

Type matchups, speed duels, stat duels, ability checks, damage buckets, item and learnset checks, and more. Streaks and lifetime accuracy per mode.

VGC Encyclopedia

A searchable reference for every competitive term, weather, terrain, and mechanic, written to match how Champions actually behaves.

Act II · The Ladder

Climb for real.

A Glicko-2 rated ladder with best-of-three sets against real players. Register an open team sheet, queue up, and earn a rank that means something.

Rated Matchmaking

Glicko-2 ratings, best-of-three sets, and a queue that widens its search band the longer you wait. Your rating history is tracked over time.

Open Team Sheets

Tournament-style transparency. Both players register species, abilities, items, and moves before the set, just like a real event.

Spectate Live Sets

Watch ranked matches as they happen. Follow the leaderboard names you keep losing to and see how they actually play.

Fair Play, Enforced

Report a bad result with battle-log evidence and a human judge reviews it. Disputes, case files, and staff roles keep the ladder honest.

TopCut Arena

Your Pokémon. Fighting live on stream.

The TopCut Arena is a Champions auto battler broadcast live on Twitch and TikTok. Type !join in the stream chat and your Pokémon fights that round. Link the app and everything you catch lives in your box: train it, gear it, and send it back out next round.

Getting in

Type !join in a TopCut Arena stream chat and you fight that round with a starter. In our Discord, type /linkchat for a code, then !link plus that code in stream chat. Once linked, your Pokémon and their records live in the app. Your first loaner is free to keep.

The fight is real time

The Arena is not turn based. Everyone acts on their own cooldown and moves around a shared map, so several opponents can be hitting you at once. Speed shortens your cooldown AND moves you faster: a very fast Pokémon acts about every 1.2s, a very slow one takes up to 7s.

Bulk and Protect

HP and defences decide how long you last while the room focuses you. Every Pokémon starts a round with 5 Protect charges: everything aimed at you has a 15% chance to be cancelled outright, damage and status alike. Once the charges are gone, everything lands.

Training is real

66 stat points to spend, at most 32 into any one stat, plus four moves, a held item and a nature. These are the Champions numbers, so train the same way you would for VGC. Trained in the app, fights on stream.

Rolling

Rolls cost Battle Points, which you earn by playing. Every roll can come back Champion, Gym, Ace or Bug, and can be Shiny, Alpha or both. The exact rates are published in the app before you spend anything, and a Champion is guaranteed after enough rolls without one.

The leaderboard

The board ranks Pokémon by wins, and a Pokémon needs a minimum number of rounds before it can place, so a single lucky round does not top the chart.

Ready to fight? Link up, then type !join when the Arena is live.
