Online Competitions

These are competitions in which Trainers can battle with other entrants.​

• Friendly Competitions​

  • In this format, you can hold your very own competition or join one set up by other Trainers.​

Finally, if you don’t have a killer team yet, but you saw someone that does, if they have shared their ID online, you can download a copy of that trainers team and use them for a battle. This is a loan, there is no way of keeping them once the battles are done. You can also opt to share your own team, if you think you have a winning combination.
