Pokemon Sword and Shield Champion Cup Rematches

Once you’ve beat the game, you’ll be able to participate in Champion Cup rematches. You may have become the Galar champion by winning the initial Cup, but you’ll have to hold on tight to your crown. Once you’ve reached the post-game, you’ll be able to participate in the Champion Cup once again — but it won’t be quite the same.

This time around, you’ll be able to build different challenge sets from various Gym Leaders, as well as a group of 15 challengers. You may have won once already, but winning the Pokemon Sword and Shield Champion Cup again might not be so easy.
