To battle other players in Pokemon Scarlet, you first gotta make sure both of you have a Nintendo Switch and your own copy of the game. Then, you can either connect locally or through the internet. For local battles, you just need to be close to each other and select the 'Link Battle' option in your in-game menu, then choose 'Local Communication'. For online battles, you both need to have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. Then, in the game, select 'Link Battle' and choose 'Internet'. You can set up a Link Code so only your friend can join. Remember, trading witty banter while battling is optional but highly recommended!

Honestly, battling friends is the best part. You'll need a Switch Online subscription for internet battles though. Worth it for the bragging rights!

Just use the 'Link Battle' in your game menu and choose local or internet. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
