Overview
Custom battles with friends locally or online.
How it works
Private Battles in the Z-A Battle Club support playing against friends with a password. The mode supports up to four players, with rule options depending on the supported environment.
How to play
Use private matches to practice attacks and team composition without relying on the current ranked reward loop. Agree on a simple rule set with friends before starting.
Mistakes to avoid
Internet play has its own requirements, including connection and relevant Nintendo Switch Online eligibility; local play has different constraints.
