The World Coronation Series logo

The Pokémon World Coronation Series (Japanese: ポケモンワールドチャンピオンシップス Pokémon World Championships) is an animated series-exclusive tournament. It is a competition held to determine the strongest Trainer in the world. It first appeared in Flash of the Titans!, where the previous annual championship season ended. The latest season started in Destination: Coronation! and concluded in Partners in Time!.

Registration

To compete in the tournament, participants must register themselves online first. The latest season received more than 10,000 entrants.

Each entrant generates a profile and a score according to the registration position.

Rules

WCS ranks

Trainers are divided into four classes based on their win/loss ratio. Each class is represented by a different type of Poké Ball:

  • Normal Class (ノーマルクラス Normal Class)
  • Great Class (スーパークラス Super Class)
  • Ultra Class (ハイパークラス Hyper Class)
  • Master Class (マスタークラス Master Class)

The battles are all judged by the Drone Rotom, which updates the rankings after each battle. In the event of a draw, no change happens, regardless of the difference between the contestants' rankings.

Trainers can usually only battle against other Trainers in the same class. However, the top-ranked Trainer of the Ultra Class can only advance to the Master Class by defeating the lowest-ranked member of the Masters Eight for their position in a special entrance battle (Japanese: 入れ替え戦 Promotion Match).

On occasion, one-day events called Battle Festival Challenges (Japanese: バトルフェス Battle Festivals) are held where many participants can gather to compete with each other at will. These events are held at stadiums and other such venues, and are open for the public to watch.

Normal Class

The scoreboard used during World Coronation Series matches

All first-time participants are automatically put into this class, regardless of any previous championships or statuses. The challenger must seek out opposing Trainers in nearby areas, and both must agree to battle.

Battles in Normal Class follow the following rules.

  • Both challengers must be of the same class.
  • Both challengers must send out their first Pokémon at the same time.
  • It consists of battles with one or two Pokémon for each Trainer.
  • Both challengers can switch their Pokémon at any time.

The class is represented by a normal Poké Ball.

Great Class

The venue of the Shalour City Battle Festival Challenge

Trainers reach this class after Normal Class. They must be between 999th and 100th place to advance to Great Class. The battle rules remain the same as in the Normal Class.

The class is represented by a Great Ball.

Ultra Class

Trainers reach this class after Great Class. They must be between 99th and ninth place to advance to Ultra Class. Unlike in the two previous classes, battles in Ultra Class are pre-scheduled, and each participant's opponent is decided for them. Battles in Ultra Class are usually broadcast worldwide, held in stadiums and other such venues, and have commentators apart from the evaluation of the Drone Rotom.

Battles in Ultra Class follow the following rules:

  • Both challengers must be of the same class.
  • Both challengers must send out their first Pokémon at the same time.
  • It consists of battles with one to three Pokémon for each Trainer.
  • Both challengers can switch their Pokémon at any time.
  • Each challenger can only use one of the following techniques per match: Mega Evolution, Z-Moves, or Dynamax.

The class is represented by an Ultra Ball.

The highest ranked Trainer of this class must defeat the lowest ranked member of the Masters Eight for their position in the Master Class.

Master Class

Wyndon Stadium

The Master Class consists of the eight Trainers who are at the top of the world ranking. They are called the Masters Eight (Japanese: マスターズエイト Masters Eight) and are certified by the Pokémon Battle Commission (Japanese: ポケモン・バトル・コミッション Pokémon Battle Commission). Commission members are responsible for evaluating and accepting any temporary changes to the rules of an official battle that is agreed between both Trainers.

They battle each other at the end of the season in a single-elimination tournament called the Masters Eight Tournament, where the winner becomes the Monarch (Japanese: 王者 Monarch). The tournament is held at the Wyndon Stadium. During the tournament, battles are refereed by Dan as opposed to Drone Rotom.

Outside the Masters Eight Tournament, a member of the Masters Eight may request a battle against other members in the same class. The battle rules remain the same as in the Ultra Class.

The class is represented by a Master Ball.

The following is a list of named participants in the latest season of the World Coronation Series by ranking as of Partners in Time!. The Master Class is ordered by the results of the Masters Eight Tournament:
