Game is GREAT but..
Why not add into double battles? Give us access to adding players so we could maybe possibly have duo battles. If we can have our Pokémon doing it the trainers should be able to as well.

Fun game
The games battle Is very fun
Im good at the game
If you’re good it’s fun suck it losers
Wasn’t bad, but not good.
When entering the game it excites you, welcomes you to an almost console-like Pokemon game; Combat or battling was fun too. However, after a couple minutes of gameplay you soon learn it’s a not a pay to win but pay to continue.
Just hating
I hate how when I paralyzed somebody it never happenes but when they get a confusion or paralyzed off it keeps getting it
Woke slop
Wont even let me play as a male, all the characters are female LMAO
For the devs
I don’t actually think champions is a 1 star game but I’m leaving this 1 star review because those draw eyes right now. This game isn’t bad. I’ve played ranked Pokémon for years spamming back to sun and moon. That said I feel qualified to make this post because it’s something people don’t really talk about. The reason experienced players will quit, new players will leave, and everyone will say it’s a bad game has nothing to do with skill. It’s more so once someone learns the game they run into the least new player friendly thing in Pokémon. Skilless Strats designed to cheap shot its way to the top. While they don’t get top 300 or #1 or even win tournaments, Strats like perish trap or sleep powder compound eyes Vivillon with 97% accuracy damage the game to a standstill. It’s one of those things where people will complain about it and others will go “well it’s your fault. If you don’t want to lose to perish trap run a ghost type or a pivot move” one of those things that kills a lot of competitive games (but not all of them) is the absence of choice. You can choose to not run a perish trap counter but as long as 1 person is running it you’re losing to that person 100% of the time so unless you want to lose you have no choice but to run the hyper specific counter and for new players they don’t know what it is yet until someone tells them. I think this is an issue that needs to be addressed. Other games like yugioh duel links will deal with this sort of thing with bans and limitations. Which is something I think competitive Pokémon really needs right now. There’s over 1k+ Pokémon and you’re not gonna be able to have a metagame without these degenerate Strats ubless you make these bans and limitations to the species of Pokémon allowed per format. Not just a rotation meta. Rotation is fine for the TCG because they run a very different type of game. One where they can control all the interactions and cards. In VGC you cant unless you take moves away. But by only focusing on tournament play you’re alienating a lot of new players who want to start with ranked first and don’t have someone like Wolfey, Cybertron, or MoxieBoosted coaching them to tournaments. If you truly want to expand the comp scene and get new players in these types of strategies need to go. Entrainment OHKO Hawlucha, Perish trap mega Gengar, Etc. the game just stops being fun when you’re playing against those teams and for anyone who says skill issue it’s a toxic take. Because you’re assuming we know we’re matching into the 1% of people using it and that we can make AI perfect plays every single turn as if every player is Wolfey. You’re legitimately being toxic without knowing it

Subscriptions
Pokémon Home subscription & Pokémon Champions subscription. Got Pokémon Home? Bet you pay for your internet, and pay Nintendo to access your own internet on their console. Just want to enjoy Champions? You’re S.O.L. unless they expand storage space for free, but they won’t; because they want Pokémon to be enjoyed by the wealthy, only. “Pokémon Connected Everywhere” is just a means to repackage another subscription and praying you forget to cancel it, or praying you will annually spend $50~100+ for Pokémon. Pokémon is going to keep stacking subscriptions under your nose, and snuffing out the memories they once created. Waiting on Pokémon Company to start being smarter with their IP; this is just gross at the end of the day.

The game is functional with seemingly endless flaws
This is a good proxy for getting into and actually competing in competitive Pokémon, however there are a number of performance issues that have been unaddressed by a series of patches since the games release. On a number of occasions, a battle will “start” only to lock you on a loading screen as the actual battle timer ticks down. Your moves are selected for you, and the game gives you a nice little “haha” while doing so. The buffering on the side of either player makes games stall unreasonably as timers are half finished by the time you actually gain control enough to influence any decision making. It seems to me that focus on rendering and graphics performance are higher priorities than user experience. If the game looks pretty but does not function in letting the player play the game, it is a terrible game. The barebones “we made user interfaces better” or “fixed gameplay issues” patch notes are completely useless to anyone who actually cares to remain informed about the game as well. By extension of being a Pokemon game, it gets a pass in many ways, but the gameplay is suffering for reasons that should not exist. WiFi check your playerbase, have options to give lower connection players a chance to reduce the strain, or don’t make an in game timer a necessity. These small choices compound to make a currently very unfriendly game.

Game is good but textures could use work
My review is what the title is
Better than expected!
Well balanced port for mobile. I can hardly tell it’s a mobile game
Almost there
I love that I can finally play Pokémon battles on my phone(Excluding showdown). The graphics are great, and the training system is really good. However, the game crashes A LOT. I started keeping track, the app force closes in 7/9 games. This isn’t counting when it force closes on the final turn and just says “Something went wrong and the battle could not be completed correctly”. I’ve got to pray in mid-game crashes I can get back in before the auto choose high horsepowers corviknight. There have been times where I get back into the game after it crashes and there’s 3 seconds left on the timer which is not enough time to pick 2 moves and their targets, so I lose to time. Also, there should be an offline way to do everything but what’s in the battle screen.

Pretty epic ❤️
Nice to b
Boring meta-game
Everyone just uses the same 2-3 teams. It is like people are role-playing as pro players, just copying their teams and battles. The game is just not fun to play. It has millions of possibilities but you will only see 2-3 when you actually play.
Nice
Very cool. It everybody knows we need to add giga-dynamax and also teracrystal, z moves and finish the Pokédex availability for this game to be the top of top coliseum online of all times very nice by the way would love to see add of more items on the shop as well
RNG SLOP
If you want to play a game that takes control out of the players hands then this is for you. Embarrassing that pokemon can’t help themselves from taking the games control out of the players hands. I see why no one plays this game. Who would want to play a game where every play is luck driven. Just sad honestly…

Why I don’t recommend
I don’t recommend this game. Trash Pokémon picks I expected better
Amazing game, however…
The game is very good but wish there was male options for skins
Controller
I love this! Thanks for more Pokémon entertainment. I use a backbone for gaming on my phone so I really wish there was controller compatibility. Please add a controller function
this game makes no sense and is BS
it’s completely luck based. i battle against multiple people in comp and they crit, dodge, burn me, snap out of confusion, protect 3 times in a row, and so much more. it’s completely luck based and pay to win for those who have other pokémon games. this game is rage inducing and worse than lol and val somehow.
another one:
i play the game and moushold hits 17 TIMES. this makes NO SENSE. he doges my attacks, protects multiple times in a row, crits, and does everything while i get frozen and hurt. this game is STILL COMPLETELY LUCK BASED AND STUPID. DO NOT GET THIS GAME. it’s all luck and not even fun.
