So why is it that every single time I get onto random matchup I always end up against some japanese kid that has had months more time of preparation. Where are all the other people who play?

Probably more Japanese players online than non-Japanese ones? Who knows lol. I did notice that I battled pretty much only Japanese players. The GOOD thing about this is that so far, every one of them that I battled didn't rage quit on me... as for almost every American player I battled against, and was on the verge on winning, rage quit on me. Though, I suppose thats for another topic lol.

I agree. I just got my first American kid and he rage quit when I was up 3 - 1.

I think I'd be best sticking to the Japanese.

Sorry Americans :)

I do like trading with Japanese so I can Masuda :)

I just had a japanese kid rage quit. T_T

Probably just your bad luck. Japan has had a lot more time with the game being out, so with so many more Japanese players them American, the odds are against you.

 

[APokemonTrainer]

I guess that's true. I tried doing it during the day instead of at night figuring that the time difference would mean more American players but no luck there.

I would assume it's because the games are still wicked new here in the US, and I'd assume haven't even come out in Europe or Australia yet.

The games? They came out in Europe a couple days before the US actually lol. Australia's release date was followed a few days after as well. They've been out like a whole month everywhere now haha.
