You're probably wondering what the heck we get to play as a Pokemon Trainer! Sound stupid? Well read before you make your full decision. First we get two updates today of the character and as well a few special moves. But before we get through let me tell you that you won't play as the actual trainer but three Pokemon...Squirtle, Ivysaur and Charizard. The classic starter Pokemon from years ago. But how do we play with all three? Easy we start off with one Pokemon like Squirtle and as if they are evolving to their second stage you can then switch to be an Ivysaur and then a Charizard. View one of the screenshots below to understand.

No way! The Pokémon Trainer has finally arrived. And it looks like he doesn’t do his fighting directly.

Instead, he uses the three Pokémon with him—Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard—to do the fighting for him.

The Pokémon Trainer watches from the background.

He needs to use his three Pokémon to fight. So the only ones who fight directly are the Pokémon.

I guess you could say using this character is like playing three for the price of one!

And the Pokémon Trainer uses a special move called Pokémon Change to switch between them.

They all share the same damage meter, so they don’t recover from damage during Pokémon Change. But they also have another stat, which you might call stamina.

If you keep fighting with the same Pokémon, or if you change them out too often, it’s not so good for the Pokémon.

If you want to be a good Pokémon Trainer, you’ll need to learn these kinds of ins and outs.
