You may establish a team using an alphanumeric code or a QR code, similar to the Union Circle in Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet. The only requirements are that you and your colleagues be physically close and that you have attained a minimum trainer level of 15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you and your squad engage in raid encounters, your frequent quick attacks steadily build up the Party Power gauge. When the gauge is full, your next charged attack causes twice as much damage, making it easier to overcome strong opponents such as mega-evolved Pok\u00e9mon and Shadow Raid monsters like as the elusive Shiny Shadow Lugia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Start the Party Everywhere You GO with Party Play!\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/R3xYmHZ9kzA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Party Play provides more than simply raiding. Because you can see each other on your overworld maps, it encourages you and your team to explore together. Various challenges, such as who has traveled the furthest or captured the most Pok\u00e9mon, keep the competitive spirit alive. It&#8217;s worth mentioning that Party Play teams are transitory, and you&#8217;ll need to reconnect to continue your shared experiences if you split up or log off.
