What is Pokémon Showdown?
Pokémon Showdown is a popular online battle simulator and competitive Pokémon platform that allows trainers to engage in virtual Pokémon battles. Designed for both casual players and serious competitive gamers, Pokémon Showdown offers a user-friendly interface and a vast database of Pokémon species, moves, and abilities, making it a comprehensive tool for team building and battling.
Users can create custom Pokémon teams, selecting from a wide range of available creatures, and then challenge other players from around the world in real-time battles. The platform provides a level playing field by automatically setting all Pokémon to level 100, ensuring that battles are determined by strategy and team composition rather than levels or in-game progress.
