Path to Glory
GodLike Esports has made history after completing a dream run through the Playoffs to emerge as champions of the Pokémon UNITE ACL 2025 India League. The team stunned fans with one of the most impressive displays of esports spirit and competitiveness in Indian history, winning seven back-to-back series in a single day. They defeated some of the best teams in the country, including S8UL, Revenant XSpark, and Global Esports, to claim the championship title.
With this victory, GodLike Esports has earned the honor of representing India at the PUACL Finals in Japan, scheduled for March 29 and 30. The Finals will feature the best teams from across Asia, giving GodLike an opportunity to showcase their talent on the global stage.
A Comeback to Remember
GodLike Esports didn’t have an easy path to glory. The tournament began with the Group Stage, where the team struggled to find their footing. Over the course of seven match days, they faced early exits in multiple games and finished in seventh place in the standings. This precarious position meant that their Playoff journey would begin in the last round, Round 7, requiring them to defeat every team ranked above them to claim the title.
In an incredible display of determination and skill, GodLike Esports defied the odds, battling through fatigue and tougher opponents in a single day. On Jan. 26, they played all seven matches of the Playoffs back-to-back, overcoming every obstacle in their path to lift the coveted trophy.
GodLike Esports also walked away with $16,000 of the $40,000 prize pool from PUACL India 2025.

Rising momentum for Pokémon UNITE in India
The PUACL 2025 India, hosted by Skyesports, drew over 461,000 viewers on the final day alone, showcasing the growing popularity of Pokémon UNITE esports in India.
With Skyesports at the helm, Pokémon UNITE has steadily risen as one of the country’s top esports titles. GodLike Esports’ victory serves as a testament to the talent and potential of Indian players and sets the stage for an exciting showing at the PUACL Finals in Japan.
One more chance for glory
While the PUACL 2025 India League has come to an end, there is one more chance for aspiring Pokémon UNITE players to make it to the finals in Japan – and that is the Pokémon UNITE Winter Tournament.
Registrations are currently in the last leg and open until Jan. 29. Teams who register will compete across the qualifier stage, group stage, and finally the Playoffs on Feb. 9 to determine one more Indian team who will qualify for the finals in Japan alongside GodLike Esports.
