The Showdown! Wi-Fi Room is a place for players to battle, trade and connect online in the main-line Pokémon games! We currently support online communications in Nintendo Switch titles. The possibilities are endless!
Every room on Showdown has a list of rules that are intended to be read by new members of the community upon joining. We encourage becoming familiar with the PS! Wi-Fi ruleset before participating in discussions in the room in order to gain a strong understanding of how the room operates.
PS! Wi-Fi is a legitimate trade/battle community, because of this; ALL hacks, hacking methods, and discussion of hacking is BANNED. Using or trading hacked/cheated Pokémon will result in room punishment (up to a permanent blacklist from the room).
If you believe you have received a hacked Pokémon in a trade from someone in our community be sure to report it to an active member of Room Staff. (Found by typing /roomstaff directly into the chat!)
There are a large number of ways that users can contribute towards making the room a better place and to keep the community thriving, some of these include:
