As we can read in the official Web of Pokémon Scarlet and Purple, this is what each of the game modes offer:
- casual battles: These are low stakes battles where the results are not recorded. An attractive feature of these battles is that you can use any Pokémon.
- Ranked Battles: In these battles, you will be able to test your battle skills against Pokémon Trainers from all over the world. Your rank will change depending on the results of your battle. Trainers are classified into levels based on their ranks. If you can reach the Master Ball Tier, the highest level, you will have a chance to compete to be the best Pokémon Trainer in the world in fierce battles.
- online championships: These are competitions in which Trainers can battle against other participants.
Official Competitions: Various types of rules may govern these special competitions in which you compete to see how high you can rank in the rankings.
Friendly Competitions: In this format, you can run your own competition or join one organized by other Trainers.
- equipment loan: This feature allows you to easily borrow battle gear by entering IDs that have been shared online. You’ll also be able to create your own battle team and make it available to Pokémon Trainers around the world!
Pokémon Scarlet and Purple will be released next November 18th for Nintendo Switch.
