Go Head-to-Head in Pokémon GO

Show off your battling skills against other players in upcoming Pokémon GO Trainer Battles.

 

December 04, 2018

 

Soon you’ll be able to challenge another Trainer at any time in Pokémon GO. With Trainer Battles, you can match up against another Trainer using a Battle Code, then face off using teams of three Pokémon. When the match is over, both participants will receive great rewards, including a chance at rare Evolution items. To make sure the battle is even, Trainers must compete in the same Trainer Battle League, which determines the highest CP permitted for the participating Pokémon.

 

The fast-paced battles take place in real time, and your Pokémon will be able to use both their Fast Attack and Charged Attack moves. You’ll also be able to use Stardust and Candy prior to battle to unlock a bonus Charged Attack for your Pokémon.

Battles aren’t just about who has the toughest Pokémon and the strongest moves. Timing is important, too. If you keep an eye on your opponent’s moves, you may be able to deploy a Protect Shield to save your Pokémon from taking critical damage. But you only have a limited number of Protect Shields before your Pokémon will be left defenseless against big attacks.

 

Your opponent will usually have to be nearby for you to initiate a Trainer Battle. But you can challenge Trainers you’re Ultra Friends or Best Friends with from any distance.

If you’re looking to improve your Trainer Battle skills, take on team leaders Spark, Candela, and Blanche! You can earn daily rewards when training with a team leader, including Stardust to help power up your Pokémon. You’ll also be working toward earning the Ace Trainer medal!

 

Start training and get ready for new ways to compete with Trainer Battles in Pokémon GO!
