Battle #3,034,991

My opponent's Sh. Klingklang has fainted, but continues to remain on-screen. I can swap in my other pokemon, but regardless of which attacks it or how many times it is attacked, klingklang stays there. Hence, the battle is stuck in a stalemate.

The first move of this battle shows how ridiculously broken this thing is...

Both level 100.
Opponent uses Swift; "not very effective"; nearly 1-hits me.
I use rock throw; "super-effective"; does tiny fraction of a fraction of damage.

And a critical hit shouldn't be nearly that powerful if it wasn't an effective move in the first place.



And this kind of thing happens no matter which pokes I use. What am I doing wrong here?

I'm not a battle expert, but I do know that IVs can make this much of a difference in a battle.
Try looking at Sam's guide for some useful information?

I'm trying to do the "Battle the Fossil Kabuto!" apart of "Forgotten Memories" and the battle isn't there. Am I doing something wrong? Sorry for the odd question it was just bugging me..

I have Pokemon in the Battle Tower too so thats not the problem

[The grand victin...]

Have you clicked on the NPC battles tab?

I was fighting Youngster Joey with a Gengar and his Raticate's tackle was super effective

To make Normal type Pokémon not useless, Normal is super effective against Ghost types on GPX
Check out the type table here!

Beyond this, for balance reasons, since typing plays a much more important role in this battle system than in-game, Normal attacks will be super-effective against Ghost types, as opposed to having no effect. On top of this, the battle system on GPX takes cues from the first generation of games, in which Poison is super-effective against Bug types.

On Battle #3,066,228 with the name Laxerna's Team I get the message "Waiting for your opponent… [end my streak]", but its an opponent in the battle subway. The only option I have is to end my streak, refreshing the page or emptying my cache didnt work.

[LanHikari]

Heya! I was doing NPC battles and tried to start a new one with ???
So I chose my pokemon team and hit submit
that all worked fine. Then a message popped up telling me to wait for the other trainer to choose their pokemon
I thought that was weird, because it's an npc battle.
so I hit ok, and then have been sitting and staring at:

for the past ten minutes
I don't want to forfeit, because then I can't use the battle tower for an hour
what do?

[Icon]

After one of BS battles another one appeared but I didn't close previous popup and then suddenly previous battle did one step back to let me last hit again. I did it again and was choosing pokemon to battle in that new one but there another new one appeared and when I selected pokemon it says "waiting for opponent" and I can't choose team for new window because I have no more battleable pokemon in BT.
I can't add screenshot because imgur is somehow blocked in my PC (or country).
Current battle numbers:
#3,073,105
#3,073,106

That's because Onix's base attack is terrible. It's 35 in a game where 100+ is considered "good." Unfezant's defense isn't bad either.

I know this is probably never going to get fixed but I'm going to keep posting it here because I'm just sick of losing streaks that take dozens of hours to build up because of a bug that should be readily fixable.

I will point out something that may or may not have been mentioned. It is related to the UI of the battle tower. So everyone knows that when you pick a move, the UI goes into this "Processing" mode where you can't click on the buttons. The thing is that when you pick a pokemon to swap, it doesn't do the same thing. That makes it perfectly possible to swap a pokemon, then have it take a while to register, and you click on one of the attacks of the pokemon you wanted to switch from. Usually when this happens, there's a small inconsistency, which might go away by refreshing, which can make the battle seem to go back a turn. I guess this is both bad in terms of letting the user know what's happening when the game gets laggy, but it might also be (part of) the source of the problem with the stuck NPC battles. Since my guess is that the glitched battles are a result of the server getting into a state which shouldn't be allowed to happen.

Yeah, that seems to be what causes this issue:



I've noticed my other problem happens most often when I close the previous battle before the next one pops up, but sometimes it still happens even when I'm patient with it. That one is also between battles so I can't imagine this is the cause of that.

[Agent Hydro]

I guess then I have to close the fight ...? (for the "pseudo-human battle subway" problem)
((because I have the same :v))

[Chrioxys]

Hi :P Whenever I go to create a Battle Team, I can only place one of my Pokémon into one of the slots. For example, I have an Easter Buneary which I can put into the "3 Pokemon" box, but when I try to do the same with my Slime Slugma, it doesn't work. I'd really like some help with this, as I can't progress in the game without access to this feature. Thankyou!

Anytime I try to battle NPCs or anything in the tower, I get "invalid request"...

What browser are you using?

[lilygarnet]

Some of my Pokemon in the Battle Tower box don't have a full list of the battle items that can be equipped. For example, my first Pokemon, a Krookodile, only has the option to equip a ghost or psychic gem, but my Charizard has the option of dark, ghost, psychic, fighting, and ice gems.
