Idea A chat box to chat and chill with players while exploring PLEASE :D The game would be way more immersive and active and social

This game would honestly double in player base if you guys could add a little chat box in the left corner where we could type to other players around us while hunting legendaries/UBs and stuff. Or a world chat.. It feels quite lonely but this game is beautiful.. A map would be nice too  Or you could click on players and click duel to insta pvp ppl around you.. and maybe bet in game money for the winner  there's so much extra money we have in this game, I dont think gambling it in pvp would be harmful.

 

What do you guys think?

cool but world chat won’t come since it was already added and removed once because it was kids swearing and trying to scam each other

There is already this feature, but you can only chat with friends who sent you a friend request or vice versa. I am happy to chat with you though! (I already sent you a request as well!)

I've heard of some of these ideas. The world chat existed, but was removed, maps will be made once in a while. And Pokemon Vortex isn't the place for live battles.

While I personally quite like the idea of having the opportunity to chat in-game while exploring the map, I don't see it happening.

I remember reading an older thread where a similar idea was proposed - I can't find the exact one right now - and it was rejected due to concerns regarding chat moderation.

 

EDIT: Found the thread I was thinking of.

I don't think Vortex needs a global chat. We already have the Vortex Discord, which is regularly used.
A map feature would indeed be nice. The main (and in my opinion best) fan-made one was unfortunately removed, but others still exist.

It is possible to battle against other people's accounts, but these will be computer-controlled opponents. Live 1v1 battles have been recommended many times, and is being looked into. However, it is hard to implement so it may take a long time before it happens.

There was something like that and it was disaster
