So recently I have gotten into playing Pokemon Showdown with friends online. What makes this game fun is the ease as to how you can competitively battle, in actual Pokemon games you would have to spend a lot of time catching and training Pokemon, On Showdown it is essentially a database of all the Pokemon available and you are able to make any sort of team you wish to create. The feature I also enjoy is the random battle as well as that is instant gratification since you don’t even need to spend the time to make a team. Over time you collect and lose points depending on if you win or lose and since there are numerous players online it is unlikely you’d be stuck in limbo during a battle unless the other player is planning to forfeit.
