PvP needs a soft re-launch. There should be a clear distinction between PvP 1.0 & PvP 2.0.
Hype for battling peaked twice: first when the feature was released, during Silph (Trainer Tips Kingdom Cup videos have 400,000+ views), and 2nd when GBL & COVID collided. Ever since then, innovation has been minimal.
The recent refactor is an excellent first step, but it's not enough. Tens of thousands of potential players tried pvp, got lag/bugs, and never picked it up again.
A drastic rebrand is needed to give the game a 2nd life. Anything less than that is just maintenance of the status quo.
2 rounds of applause!
the first one to @KingPhilip94 to have made the GBL Leaderboards
And the second to out 5-4 victory against the @FFroslass last week! Sorry for the delay, the celebrations ran long🔥🦉
Hey @NianticHelp I spent 10 charged TMs trying to get some move from the recent move update just to learn a moment after that they had been removed from the system without any previous notice. I request a full replenish of my 10 Charge TMs
