Here are a few you can get into easily.
Pokémon Planet
Pokémon Planet is a free-to-play browser-based MMO (massively multiplayer online) Pokémon game where players can catch and train Pokémon, battle with other players, in-game trainers, gym leaders, and Elite-4 members, trade with others, and many more. The game combines all the regions up to generation 5. Pokémon spawn in various areas like the original video games. Players can also catch legendary Pokémon that spawn in exclusive areas or during in-game events.
The game also has a unique chat option where people can post about trading, have conversations, or run commands. Players unlock the chat option after defeating the third gym leader, Misty, to prevent spammers.
Pokémon Showdown
Pokémon Showdown is the most accessible online Pokémon battle simulator. Compared to other online games, Pokémon Showdown updates its website the earliest, which lets the players compete with the latest Pokémon, move sets, and items offered by the latest flagship Nintendo games.
The default setting of the battle simulator is the latest generation’s random battle option. In a random battle format, two players match against each other with balanced teams of random six Pokémon with competitive move sets, abilities, and items. Players can compete in formats other than the randomised metagames if they have a team which they can easily build using the website’s teambuilder function.
For playing Pokémon Showdown competitively, a solid idea of Pokémon fundamentals is necessary. For example, Effort Values (EVs), Individual Values (IVs), abilities, items, and move sets are things you need to build an idea on to be competitive on this platform.
To play with your friends on Pokémon Showdown , all you need to do is click the “Find User” button on your home screen and write your friend’s username. Your friend’s profile will pop up on your screen, and you can challenge them to a battle.
Pokémon Revolution Online
Pokémon Revolution Online has the first four regions from the base games and eight hundred and ninety Pokémon from the national Pokédex. The game is among the easiest to dive into, in terms of exploration and competitive gameplay, with guild wars, tournaments, quests, gym battles, and many more.
To play Pokémon Revolution , visit their website and create an account. After that, download the client for your device and start your adventure. To host battles with your friends, get your starter Pokémon from Professor Oak’s lab and then add your friend from the social tab. You can then send them a battle request and start battling.
As you proceed further into the game, you’ll be able to compete against your friends, like a real-life Pokémon journey, as you explore, catch more Pokémon, level up, and grow as a trainer.
