Ranked PvP is a Joke

[Tempei]

Currently you need to have 6 level 100 pkm to enter ranked pvp.This means as of now in Kanto where the wild pokemon are lvl 43 ish you will spended ridiculous amounts of time training.Not only this since its a competitive mode switching out pokemon is going to be a thing so thats another pokemon you need to get to lvl 100. Why make the grind so much when you can make it so all pokemon who enter ranked pvp is set to level 50.

[Robbers]

That's the point of training your pokemon... if you just want straight up pvp with no grind then play pokemon showdown.

Ranked PvP is only for players who have level 100s, its a post-story feature.

 

Saying that, you obviously havent unlocked Mt. Silver or Cerulean Cave. Those areas have higher level pokemon in there.

I was expecting a thread about bugs and abuses and such. Anyways Kanto is not the only region in this game so your argument is pointless. There are better places to train.

best place to grind Sea Foam(lvl 40+)->Dragon Den(lvl 45+)->Mt. Silver(lvl 50+)->Cerulean Cave(lvl 55+)

if you fell too leveling try active a membership or exp boost

Yeah i have to agree, lvl up a poke to lvl 100 is going pretty fast. Even ev-train u can pretty fast if u have macho brace and know the right spots.

And there are great places like cc or mt silver or even dd where u can level up fast.

 

Its MMO-Pokegame, grinding is part of it. If u want quick pvp-battles go showdown as former post already said.

 

Here is where u catch your poke (most-time consuming part), ev-train your poke and lvl up your poke and love all your own pokes. <3 Or u farm money and buy what u need. xd

 

Have fun, Sir! :Heart:

Why must i have to go into a different region to go train, why can't i just train in one region and do pvp. Sometimes i want to take a break from grinding and do pvp but as it is now ranked pvp is when you beat the whole game.If you allow access to ranked battle with just the first region there will be a bunch of variety in battles and more competition.In the real game there were 2 brackets of battles, lvl 50s and lvl 100s i don't see why this game can't have both.I also don't want to be spoon fed, i also dont want to go insane either grinding on lvl 42 pokemon in kanto just to get to lvl 100.I'm still willing to catch pokemon and train them to level 50.A boost in pvp competition also boosts the economy which demands for held items and certain pokemon, i don't see anything wrong with my suggestion.

Ranked PvP is, as thor said is post-game feature ( end game). Clearing a region will be more beneficial for you as well, considering that you'll have access to more pokemon. Also considering the fact you can do PvP without entering ranked, so you might want to consider having mock battles with your friends. Other than that, having random pokemons (level variety) in ranked PvP will create more unequal terms in the long run.

It shouldn't be an end game feature, it encourages more players if they can do ranked pvp when they get their 8th badge in kanto your point about unequal is negated since all pokemon will be set to lvl 50.Having ranked pvp early encourages players to explore the whole game rather then stop in kanto and get disenfranchised by the high level cap required to join and move on to a different game.The end game goal should be having multiple pokemon to work around with your team and better spots to train;instead we have end game content only available to those who have access to the macho brace, new exp training spots and such.
