PVP is live! Share your initial thoughts!

Do you think it has enough strategy to really be worth it? Some people are randomly getting Sinnoh Stones, do you think this is fair? Discuss!

Note: Only live for certain levels. Slow rollout!

As the forums are back some things are still being fixed including the article linkage thing.

So in the meantime, article is here! Includes some notes on observed bugs/issues.

I quite like it, but I do feel over time it'll need more strategy to it, rather than just pressing the screen constantly and using shields every now and then. :o

Is it like raid/gym battles?

It's a simplified version. You basically just tap to attack and when your Pokémon's special move becomes usable, press the move button continuously to charge and use it. You're given two shields per battle that can be used to block a special move and avoid damage.

Simple but quite fun! Been battling the boyfriend and another friend, no Sinnoh Stone yet tho ; ; Soon hopefully..

It definitely needs to not feel so... repetitive. It's okay but it doesn't feel competitive enough to me so I barely use it. Maybe if the rewards were something like one Pokeball per battle capped at 50 per day - would be nice for rural players with Ultra friends :)

I quite like it - I've received 3 Sinnoh stones (2 on my main and 1 on my alt) by battling myself; so they seem relatively common.
