I've started playing pokemon champions this week and been messing around with team building and changing moves. They all cost in game currency like VP. that can only be earned through Pokemon battles in an incredibly slow pace. Then when gaining pokemon for your team you have to rely on extremely random gacha mechanics. I feel like this game is designed so that you either buy the premium pass or import your pokemon through pokemon home which also cost money.

Couldn't you just use Pokemon Showdown for that?

Nintendo has been under a lot of criticism. Who would've thought that such a creative company would rely on milking their customers with the same content recycled, what once was a sign of identity, it is turning into more of a sign of stagnation.

I agree pokemon showdown is a lot better than champions, i only tried champions because my friend kinda got me into it at the first place. compared to champions pokemon showdown is very flexible on any ruleset that you want while champions just lock you into 3v3 singles or 4v4 doubles
