The Battle Arcade is a facility featured in the new Battle Frontier, and is situated in the south-eastern corner. In the Battle Arcade, the Trainer battles other Trainers with the interference of a Game Board which ultimately alters the course of the battle. Due to the predictability of each round the Trainer faces, the BP yield at the end of the seventh match is markedly lower than other Facilities.
The Game Board[]
The Game Board utilised in the Battle Arcade can sway outcomes of a battle by inducing status effects and hindrances on the Trainer's Pokémon and the opponents; as well as status heals and HP restores. This feature is illustrated through a tiled board in which each tile flickers quickly horizontally across each row. The Trainer has to select the tile he/she prefers quickly. It can influence the Trainer's Pokémon, the Opponent's Pokémon and varying Overworld effects. The Game Board's effects are as follows:
