They need to do a huge update with turn based battle competitive combat, we gave them the money. Gameplay is terrible combat wise
Breh, if this happens expect for the economy to come to a screeching halt. I can't imagine being able to go to work and not try to battle people under the tables :banderas:

There is so much more they can add to this too:

Trading Pokemon : I wouldn't be surprised if people start spending real cash for very rare Pokemon. Which means it would make people actively go out to get the most rare ones to make some money like a side job.

PVP: One of the most popular gaming aspect is PVP. If they improve the gameplay, this is going to draw players in.

Gym Leader: Imagine becoming the gym leaders in your city and actually getting to name your gym. You will have people show up to battle in at your gym from all over the city.

Pokemon master: Being number one in the world. I don't know how far people would go to battle you or buy your Pokemon..

I wouldn't be shocked if they have events for rare/legendary Pokemon down the line.

Like rare Pokemon at election day polls.

...Or Mewtwo on Black Friday. :merchant:

Trading and leaderboards have been confirmed for future updates, dunno about PVP.

If this is Pokemon, there has to be PVP. Pokemon is all about catching Pokemon and battling them. It would be a huge opportunity if they don't implement it. As for rare Pokemon, i hope there is a limit that they give out. Like maybe a 100 Mewtwos world wide.

I've resisted dloading this but the day they add a battling element it'll be game over. shyt will be a license to print money. It's already a multibillion dollar app and it's barely a month old.
