Support <:

But only on the terms that ~Hatoko~ mentioned. Both players searching at the time sounds less bothersome then bugging random people who aren't interested and this way you find willing players >u<

This is a pretty good idea, and I support it, but one suggestion...

In the settings, there should be an option to turn on/off receiving random battle requests. I think, this way, it would be much more balanced and people who don't want to battle don't have to.

I like this idea a lot - I was actually kind of expecting there to be an option like this already when I first peeked at the battle stuff. I agree with the suggestion that the random battle request should only be sent to others using the random battle feature, or at least have an option to let people turn off random battle requests :)

Support! I do get bored sometimes and that can be quite useful. But I agree, it could be annoying, so maybe you could have an option to block random requests? Just a thought.

I saw someone mentioned another game that's made for battling.
This game also has it in it,I like this idea.Some might not like it,so they could opt out or it could be matching people who are looking at the same time as well.

In one side, it is a very good suggestion, but in the other side, there will be some problems, for example that always the same awesome battlers will be in the random list. There must be criterias, to search for a battle partner, for example autolevel xx, with or without Megas, pokemons in the team lower than xy.., and of course the battle partner must want to battle.

I just spent the past 10mins trying to figure out how to "random battle" people. I guess this explains it! I hope it gets implemented. It should filter people based on level and battles played and won, in my opinion. It wouldn't be very fun if you were new and kept getting trashed...
Maybe limit what level the Pokes can be in in your team as well?

Title: THE SOLUTION

This can take a while to develop. But there should be a rank system. More battle you win. The more higher is your rank. So,the random battling system is perfect. You can also do like in the real Pokémon game. The battle are separate in two section. “With legendary” and “without legendary”. The battle system will be perfect if this is implemented. This is a long and hard work to develop. But this can be AMAZING. Thank you for reading this and CYA

I was going to suggest something like this. If someone doesn't want to battle, they can always disable their vs seeker so they don't get battle requests, just like the current system. Or have an option to disable battle requests from random people.

Actually, I was thinking of a list of online people who have their vs seeker enabled, along with other details, like pokemon levels instead of completely random. Like there be a find opponent button, and it spits out a list of people online who have their vs seeker enabled along with wins, losses, pokemon levels, etc. The person challenged can see those details about their opponents and accept or decline the challenge. I think it would be more useful to battling than the system spitting out someone completely random.

Reasons for support;
1) VS Seeker doesn't seek battles as you aren't given the choice to randomly battle users that are also seeking to battle. Eliminates the whole time sink of the current needlessly tedious process and would be more friendly especially to new users.
2) Reduces the possibility of users being bugged about battling.
3) VS Seeker seems like it has always been taboo to try to fix. Everyone knows that it's currently poor/outdated and a majority want it to be fixed, but these suggestions are still met with posts such as; "Don't play it if you don't like it", "Pokeheroes isn't dedicated for battling", or "Fight Area". I don't believe these are an appropriate alternative for dismissal as it is a band-aid to the underlying problem. Why have VS Seeker then? We might as well not have it if it will perpetually be broken and unchanged.

Suggestion:
1) Have a Battle Lobby that features users being able to join, chat, and battle. Possibly even watch other people battle. It would be easier for players to organize with multiple users through Newsfeed.
2) Also allow players to have the choice leave their team on Auto Random Battle, giving users actively looking for battles a wider pool to battle from. Have Battle Points earned calculated by the Auto Team's Win Rate, Average Level, and if you already battled them that day to prevent abuse.

I like the idea assuming you could opt out of it. Like turn off random battle requests for example. As it is, the battling feature seems to be pretty much abandoned, and having the option to seek out a random person who wants to battle would make the feature more usable.

Full support with the option to opt out of random requests.

Also considering battling is one of the categories for Event points, having a "Find opponent" option would help significantly. And it won't challenge *any* user, like most people may have their VS Seeker off. And another option for "Do I show up in random challenges" wouldn't be too hard to add as well.

I support this too. It's really hard to find battle opponents right now.

Bumping this. It seems like no one ever wants to battle, but I know that’s just because no one sends random battle requests for obvious reasons. You have to go out of your way to ask for it, and having a system where you can just find someone else out there is great!

Some things I think I should note:
1. Obviously there will have to be a way to opt out, probably by default, but that also means that users that have it turned on should have it turned back off if they’ve been offline for so long. That, or just the ability to reject a battle that you’re randomly given.
2. A rank system is a great idea even if the ‘rank system’ is something simple.
3. Buumee is right about the whole ‘fixing an underlaying problem’ thing. We all know it needs fixed but saying that Pokéheroes isn’t ‘geared’ towards battling is just ignoring an issue. This fix would definitely guarantee more people using it, especially for event points and such.
