"Get ready, PvP battles are nearly here! Come find out the place to go for your general battling needs!"

#PokemonGO: Welcome trainers!As it was just announced, PvP is coming. Check the link for more specific details. While I’m sure we are all excited for this new feature we want to remind you that this subreddit is the general hub of PoGO things. With that in mind we have created a new subreddit specifically for battling!The ArenaThis is the Pokemon GO Arena. Here you will find other trainers who are seeking to battle or to improve themselves so that they can win future battles.The Arena's purpose is to help facilitate user battles. Posts should be geared towards topics of battle. Maybe you want to host a mini community tournament in your area. Maybe you have questions about good battlers for the different leagues, or maybe you just want to share some stories about the matches you've had. All of that is welcome here.What isn't welcome here are people searching for friends go here, shitposts, or general pokemon go complaints or ideas. Do your best to be friendly to the users here.Regardless of whether you are a veteran or a newbie, everyone should be treated with respect.Construction and Art CompetitionCurrently r/pokemongoarena is lack luster. We are working on getting the subreddit to be fully functional within the next 24-48hrs. Despite the lack of awesome css and fleshed out rules, we do have some basic rules and guidelines set up.Many of you may be wondering if there’s anything you can do to help speed this process along. Well, you’re in luck! We are hoping that some of you creative types can create a banner for the new subreddit. We’re hoping to have something that looks similar to this image. So if you’ve got the skills and interest, please send your ideas to us via modmail!That’s all we have for now, so good luck in your future battles! via /r/pokemongo https://ift.tt/2KUQGKS
