As promised, Pokémon GO has now introduced player vs. player battles, allowing you to take on your friends with your beloved collection of pixelated critters.
Just like most new features that are added to the game, trainer battles initially arrived for those who had reached the app's maximum Level 40 mark. It only took a couple of hours for the feature to be rolled out to other players, however, and now everyone at Level 10 and above can take part. As Niantic has explained below, this level will be the minimum requirement players must reach to join in.
If you're wanting to jump straight into battle against your nearest and dearest, make sure to check out our guide to How Player Vs. Player Trainer Battles Work in Pokémon GO for tips and instructions on how to get started. You might also find this initial reveal post helpful.

Tried it, and I will do it daily for the rewards, but it's so bland and boring. I honestly don't understand why people wanted this feature, but it's good that Niantic listens to their playerbase.
This mode really isn't what it's cracked up to be.
Regrettably, it's going to turn out to be nothing more than another daily task for players to complete to try and get important items locked behind the feature.
I might check this out. Turns out recepetion for the mdoe is turning out kinda bad... is it worth diving into?
I haven't been waiting for this feature but I'll check it out, I'm more of the catch and level/power up type.
I guess I can use it to help teach my mom about battling so she can start doing raids and battle gyms effectively.
I will make my main and alt accounts beat the **** out of each other for rewards. But that is all.
