Ranked Battles Season 38 is now live in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, running through Jan. 31 at 23:59 UTC and marking the first season under Regulation Set I. With the ruleset shift, the competitive landscape is getting a noticeable shakeup, pushing players to rethink team builds, counters and win conditions. Early ladder matches are already showing new trends as trainers test what works and what doesn’t. Whether you are climbing for rewards or just feeling out the meta, this season is a good opportunity to adapt early and get comfortable with Regulation Set I before things fully settle.
