A scene from the battles between trainers in Pokemon GO
Niantic initially announced very discreetly that, throughout 2018, PvP battles would be included in Pokemon GO Later,very recently they gave very complete information about them and right now, they are already available to all players of the game.
It is undeniable that, as time passed, Pokemon GO was losing its initial bellows. The furor caused by its release faded as players considered it repetitive.For this reason, from Niantic they decided to add multiple novelties as the development of the game progressed and the latest novelty is the battles between trainers or PVP.
Here we explain how battles between trainers work in Pokemon GO
Trainer battles are like trades. The players do not appear on the map and only allow you to fight with players who are close to us. In fact, you have to be so close that you have to scan a QR code from one of the players' devices, from the menu that shows nearby Pokemon.
The selection of trainers to fight with
The game gives us another option. Fight against the trainers of Teams Valor, Instinct and Wisdom. Once we have scanned the QR code or selected a trainer, the battle between trainers or PvP battle will begin.
Before starting the fight we will have to choose the League in which we want to fight. There are three, the first with a 1500 CP limit, the second with a 2500 CP limit, and the third with no Combat Point limit. When we select it, we will have to choose the Pokemon that will fight.
The development of a battle
Once the Pokemon has been chosen, the battle will begin. The system of these battles is very simple. It consists of pressing the screen to attack the enemy Pokemon and weaken it. As we attack, the special attack will be filled, which will inflict a lot of damage, and if we win, we will get rewards.
We'll see if the inclusion of trainer battles in Pokemon GO makes more people return to play what, at the time, was one of the most downloaded games of theApp Store.
