Ever wondered if you can throw down in a battle with wild Pokemon in Pokemon GO? Let’s dive into that burning question.
So, can you actually fight wild Pokemon in Pokemon GO? It’s a question many trainers ask, and we’ve got the answer ready for you.
Short Answer: Nope, No Wild Battles
In Pokemon GO, you don’t get to battle wild Pokemon. Instead, the main action with these critters involves catching them by swiping Poke Balls at them on your screen. It’s all about the aim, not the fight!
But don’t worry, there are plenty of other ways to battle within the game. You can challenge other trainers, join teams, and participate in raids. These battles let you test your Pokemon’s strength and strategy against others.
