Just in time for the release of the new PvP feature for Pokémon GO players have left a lot of feedback on Reddit. How are the Trainer Battles being received by the players?
The Trainer Battles are currently plagued by some issues. In addition, players have collected feedback and hope that Niantic will make improvements soon. Nonetheless, players are excited about the Trainer Battles.
There is still room for improvement
The majority of players like the new PvP feature. However, they would like some additions to the existing system.

What the players wish for:
- Players should have the option to view the attacks of their Pokémon before selecting them for a battle against other players.
- Many players initially had trouble finding the menu in the app where they can challenge other players. Some players searched for 10 to 15 minutes. This could be handled differently. For example, gyms could offer the option to battle other players from there.
- Players wish to be able to battle random other players to try out new team combinations or simply to pass the time.

- The button to activate shields in battle is currently in the same position as the super attacks. Some players accidentally activated their shield because of this.
- Bugs are still plaguing the PvP battles. Players wish for their removal.
- Children are currently locked out of part of the PvP feature. They can challenge the team leaders, but cannot battle against other players.
The PvP feature is being received very positively
What the players find great:
- Players had to wait a long time for Trainer Battles to arrive. The arrival of the feature is liked by many players.
- They also like the implementation of a new combat system. The combat system is a combination of the Pokémon GO combat system and the turn-based combat system from the old Pokémon games.
Overall, the mood among players is positive. They look forward to future additions to the PvP system and hope that Niantic will soon resolve existing issues.
