Reset season
Pokémon Champions Season M-3 Start Time
Quick answer: Season M-3 starts around June 17, 2026 at 02:00 UTC, alongside Regulation Set M-B and the mobile launch window.
Source trail: official ranked battle, maintenance, gameplay, and rewards notices are prioritized for timer and reset claims. See the methodology page for source priority and projection rules.
Pokémon Champions Season M-3 begins when Season M-2 ends on June 17, 2026 UTC. The current Season M-2 period runs until June 17, 2026 at 01:59 UTC, so the Season M-3 reset window to watch is June 17, 2026 around 02:00 UTC.
This is also the Android and iOS launch date for Pokémon Champions and the start of Regulation Set M-B. The important player deadline is still the Season M-2 end time: finish ranked games, Battle Pass progress, and reward pushes before the reset.
Season M-3 start time
The Season M-3 start is June 17, 2026 around 02:00 UTC. If Pokémon announces maintenance near the reset, the ranked season can be scheduled before the game is practically available to play.
What is confirmed and what is still pending?
The reset point is anchored to the known Season M-2 end time. Secondary references list Season M-3 through July 27, 2026, but the exact official Season M-3 end date, Battle Pass reward list, and full Regulation Set M-B details should still be checked against the next official notice or in-game Check Rules screen. Until then, use June 17 as the practical start window and treat later Season M-3 planning dates as provisional.
What changes after Season M-2?
The next season should bring a new ranked ladder cycle, new Battle Pass timing, and a new reward deadline. Regulation Set M-B starts with the same reset window, so the next full regulation notice is the key rules update to watch.
Player checklist before Season M-3
Finish any Season M-2 ranked games before the reset, claim time-sensitive Battle Pass rewards, review whether your current team depends on M-A-only assumptions, and pre-register or install the mobile version if you plan to play on Android or iOS. If maintenance is announced, use the maintenance end time as the moment the new season may become practically playable.
