This article is about the battle format in Generation VII. For the mode in the Pokémon Rumble series, see Battle Royale.
A Battle Royal

A Battle Royal (Japanese: バトルロイヤル Battle Royal) is a type of Pokémon battle introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon. A Battle Royal involves four Trainers all battling each other at the same time. The format is based on the battles that the four guardian deities of Alola take part in to decide who is the strongest of them all.

Battle Royals are held at the Battle Royal Dome. In a Battle Royal, each Trainer brings up to three Pokémon into the ring, using one Pokémon at a time. At the end of a turn, if a Trainer has no Pokémon left, the Battle Royal ends. All participants are scored based on the number of Pokémon they knocked out, and the number of Pokémon they have remaining.

Mechanics

During a Battle Royal, any Pokémon can target any of the other three opposing Pokémon as a target.

If a targeted Pokémon is defeated before every Pokémon has taken their turn, any remaining attacks that were targeted for that Pokémon will fail.

Moves that hit multiple targets will hit all three opponents, but the base power of these moves is lowered.[by how much?]

Scoring

If a Trainer's Pokémon knocks out an opposing Pokémon, that Trainer receives a point. If a Pokémon faints due to indirect damage, such as poison or burn, the point is awarded to the Pokémon who caused the indirect damage to occur. If a Pokémon faints due to self-inflicted damage or effects, such as from recoil or Explosion, no points will be rewarded to anyone.

The battle is over at the end of the turn after all of any one Trainer's Pokémon have fainted. The winner is determined based on the combined total of the KO points they earned and their remaining conscious Pokémon. If there is a tie using this method, the winner will be determined based on whose Pokémon have the most remaining HP. A Trainer who had all of their Pokémon faint cannot win, even if they have the most points.
