The Pokémon that each player chose to offer in trade will be displayed on both players’ Touch Screens. Select a Pokémon and tap “SUMMARY” to view its information and moves.

Random Matchup

Choose a battle format and rules to begin a battle with a Trainer from somewhere in the world. When you are connected with Nintendo WFC and the “Searching for your opponent…” message is displayed, you can press to cancel the search and return to 2F of the Pokémon Center.

All Pokémon above Level 50 temporarily become Level 50 during Random Matchup battles. Pokémon will return

to their normal levels after the battle ends. There is a time limit for choosing which Pokémon will participate in the battle, and when giving commands to your Pokémon in battle. When the time limit is up, a move will automatically be chosen for your Pokémon, so be careful of the time limit. Battles also have time limits. If a battle does not end within the time limit, a winner will be decided then.
