If you are not very good in the PvP league of Pokemon GO, you now get a little help from Niantic. You will receive more attempts to achieve victory.
This is the situation in the PvP league: The PvP league in Pokémon GO complains about numerous bugs and often you only lose because the opponent has taken advantage of a mistake.
However, there are also situations where you simply have the wrong Pokémon and lose mercilessly. But those who are currently on a real losing streak should be pleased with a new feature in the PvP league.
15 losses in one set are possible
This has changed: If a player loses all 5 battles in a set, they can now make additional attempts to achieve victory. According to Niantic, you can now endure up to 15 consecutive losses before moving on to the next battle set. However, as soon as the first victory is achieved after the normal 5 attempts, you directly move to the next battle set.
Why is there this change? There are several reasons for this. Of course, the aim is to provide trainers with a small sense of achievement, and those who lose their entire battle set can quickly become demotivated.
On the other hand, this adjustment is ideal for newcomers. This way, one can first try out some Pokémon and find a decent team without wasting an entire battle set right away.
This adjustment can also become really important once the corona crisis is over. Currently, one can fight in the league without having walked any kilometers. Normally, you must walk 3 kilometers for each battle set. It is indeed quite frustrating to walk 3 kilometers and end up with just 5 losses.
In the end, you at least have the chance for the first reward level, which is at least some Stardust. This allows you to improve your monsters.
What is the meta in the PvP league? The Pokémon that are relevant in PvP mode are often very different from those in raids. So if you are a newcomer and use classic raid Pokémon, you can quickly lose. The tier list for each PvP league shows that completely different monsters are relevant.
It takes some time to get accustomed to the PvP league. In order for you not to lose all your first battle sets right away, Niantic gives you a few more chances. Also, check out our tips for the PvP league, as this can provide you with significant advantages.
