Trainer VS!
A much requested feature will make an appearance in Pokemon Tower Defense 2. You will be able to battle other trainers in 1v1 battles! Here is how it works:
Battle other Trainers |
- In the Story Mode in the game pick 3 pokemon in the order that you want them to come out with the attacks that you want them to have.
- Pick from available command styles (This will determine what pattern of attacks your pokemon will use when battling other trainers. The default and only one available when I realease will be to do the first attack once then switch to the second attack. More will be added in the future. Fun fact: This is the behavior of a lot of the enemies you fight in the game.)
- Pick Ability for that Pokemon.
- After you do that go to your Pokepad and press Trainer VS press the battle button and you will be paired up with another trainer to battle!
Once you get into a battle you won't get to switch out your pokemon or change attacks. You will have to rely on the order that you place them in and the attacks, abilities and command style you picked in order to win the battle.
Eventually there will be different things like different ranks and different avatars you can win for this mode! So look forward to that!
Champions Item Variety
A much needed feature will be added to Champions TD. Item Variety! What does it mean you ask? Well it means that the same item can now have different stats. For example you can get a Sword of the Bear that has stamina and strength or you can get the same Sword but it will be called Sword of the Wolf and instead of stamina it will just have strength but more of it. This will add more variety and more reasons to possibly replay levels to get the loot just the way you want it. If the loot isn't right then you can put it up for Auction or search for the item in the Auction House that has the stats you want.
Auction House Opening!
Speaking of the Auction House, after a looooonggg lonnnggg looonnggg time the Auction House is almost ready to be opened! I look forward to it so I hope you guys do to!
Lots to do this week so keep checking out my progress and cheer me on Twitter!

ReplyDeletethis is lookin hawt! can't wait! now i just need a map or something for ptd2 so i know where im supposed to go XD
ReplyDeleteDo you think you could make the yeti look more like this? http://t.co/CV3cKJe79X It's face currently looks unnatural in relation to the rest of the game.
ReplyDeleteWhen PTD2 is done will you focus on CTD for a while or start another project and do 2 at once again?
I honestly do not see any use in multiplayer. Existing showdown ... And that was in the pTD1, not that I had much success. An unnecessary update. :/
ReplyDeletewill be different from ptd1 multiplayer
ReplyDeleteI think somewhere in between can work, I do agree that it is a little off. When PTD2 is done I plan to stick to ChampsTD but at some point I will start working on a follow up
ReplyDeleteWill there be any banned pokemon for multiplayer like primal reversion Kyogre?
ReplyDeleteAwesome, Great to hear about both things.
ReplyDeleteThe yeti is frowning and I get that's probably because the game say's it's sad it lost it's toy that you use to recruit it but once it's recruited it shouldn't be frowning anymore, plus it's the only thing that looks forward.
Also I cannot wait till CTD is the main focus.
Are there going to be tiers like Smogon or something like that?
ReplyDeleteThanks
Trainer ID: 1177479
ReplyDeleteTrade with me guyz, looking for shiny dragon and shiny horsea, legendary (doesnt need to be shiny)
All hail Klefki.
ReplyDeleteMan every blog post we get someone new to disqus.
ReplyDeleteSam will the Multiplayer actually look like how it does in the pic above?
ReplyDeleteis there every going to be a ptd3?
ReplyDeleteWait ptd1 has multiplayer?What link?
ReplyDeleteI need victini.
ReplyDeletethis is awesome
ReplyDeleteyou can also add mega evolution stones as prize
ReplyDeleteIt was shut down.
ReplyDeleteYes!
ReplyDeleteI think not. That is a screenshot from the game.
ReplyDeleteSincerly, exist a lot of other updates:
ReplyDelete1- More mega-evolutions
2- Included side-quest for obtain a rare pokemons (for example if you win a "trainer", and use a shiny team, win a rare shiny, and used a shadow team, win rare shine).
3- More gym challenges.
Game is lineal, and it's fun for 4-5 hours, but... You win tournament, and bye. Game is finish. At the most complete pokedex, but a regular pokedex in 5-10 hours, it's complete (i complete for examen in 6hours regular pokedex).
Existing showdown, the update is unnecesary. And useless.It would be better to concentrate on other updates, but ... Hopefully not a failure as was that of pTD1, although different. :/
Yesbut CTD and Cosmoids will come first.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. This was the worst "gratefulness" I have ever seen.
ReplyDeleteI have some Victinis, What's the ID?
ReplyDeleteWhen you say that you need a map, you mean a map of the region? If that's it, just search for a Johto Region map.
ReplyDeleteAny of the old boys still play this game? #ThrowbackThursday
ReplyDeleteMy idea! Finally used!
ReplyDeleteYeah that would be awesome.Also add the items that can change certain pokemons to other forms.
ReplyDeleteJust state your ID or offer some pokemons iny my ID so we can have a trade :3 Trainer ID: 1177479
ReplyDeleteWhich one's that?
ReplyDeleteWhich old boys?
ReplyDeleteI know its from X & Y but dont know why.
ReplyDeletei had that idea too
ReplyDeleteabout the 1vs1 between trainers and the prizes several times
Yeah thats a good one
ReplyDeleteSam said Maybe, but after CTD and Cosmoids
ReplyDeleteWill you implement egg moves and thingy thingies
ReplyDeletegood idea!
ReplyDeleteno it won't, it will look like a one on one battle, but I'll be making it better as time goes on (showing avatars and names etc)
ReplyDeletewhat do you mean?
ReplyDeleteI think adding more content like side quest doesn't help with the problem you are suggesting. For example I can spend a whole week on a side quest and you can beat it in 30 min. Multiplayer on the other hand could potentially keep you entertained for weeks (or more!)
ReplyDeletesoon it's on the list
ReplyDeleteme neither but a lot of people still look forward to ptd2 updates
ReplyDeletereally
ReplyDeletesee my messages with sam
btw do you remember joel site?
ReplyDeletea friend of mine wants to go there but i don't remember the link
http://oteropictures.blogspot.com.au/2015/03/art-of-champions-tower-defense-part-20.html?spref=tw
ReplyDeleteDepending: The side quest (achievements), add new possibilities in game. It's short, yes, but add more difficult, and fun. In ptd1, achievements, shiny quest, or catch a legendaries birds, add others ways for game. And it's fun. In ptd2 I hace missing (say that too), the achievements, fo example.
ReplyDeleteIt's my opinión, obviously, but... Storyline it's great, yes, but it's lot of lineal, and i hav missing, for example catch other "legendary birds" (similar catch in X pokemons), or obtain someone pokemons for achievements (for example shiny hitmon).
my idea was to have mutliplayer on ptd2, and i cant believe it's happening... :'D
ReplyDeleteAnd when I thought knock off would cancel mega evolution...
ReplyDeleteHi Trainers, trade with me :) Trainer ID: 1177479
ReplyDeleteHi Sam... What is the reward in 1v1, I've been playing it since the release and still nothing happens... btw I cant choose my poke's move in the battle....
I reread the post and I read that I won't be able to change/choose what move will my pokes used inside the battle
ReplyDeletethxx
ReplyDeleteWow Sam this is truly amazing|!Though it would be really cool if we could change our pokemons abilities.:(
ReplyDeleteUm so I won some battles right now but I dont see any rewards,Where are the rewards?
ReplyDeleteID is 5134977.I dont really anything that can be traded for a victini.Well I actually have something even better but I Need it
ReplyDeleteSam are the moves in third slot and fourth slot useless in trainer Vs?Or are they going be useable in future?
ReplyDeleteUnlucky me
ReplyDeletei waited 3 hours for an opponent in multiplayer and when i had to go someone logged in
Sam how can i my pokemon use all of its moves?
ReplyDeleteit uses only its 1st 2
Sam how can i play 1vs 1 with a certain person?
ReplyDeleteit just keep loading
ReplyDeleteanyone wanna trade
ReplyDeleteI want Victini.You dont have it we dont trade.
ReplyDeleteanyone have victini
ReplyDeleteYeah nice one!
ReplyDeleteSam, great job with the multiplayer.
ReplyDeleteYeah I do.
ReplyDeleteThats pretty straight up.
ReplyDeleteI have been looking for it for a long time.Right now it is the only legendary that I want.I already got all the legendary pokemon from HOF (at least the ones I wanted) and now the only legendary I want is Victini.
ReplyDeleteI am waiting for my opponent, but it is still finding one. I love it cuz I was waiting for something like this to happen, but it is taking so long. I have benn waiting for about 8 minutes and so on...
ReplyDeleteWierd, it usually takes me no time at all.
ReplyDeleteSam... There's an extremely OP combination... you have NO IDEA what you've done... (consistently winning even against lvl 110 legendaries w/ single poke)
ReplyDeleteI don't know why. what computer are you using? It could be that it works on certain computers
ReplyDeleteI have figured it out, It could be that I need a full house before I enter and the first three are selected.
ReplyDeleteum im unable to chgange my moves. is anyone else having this problem.
ReplyDeleteKlefki's not the best here. That position of power belongs to another pokemon.
ReplyDeleteI must say the multiplayer is great, but I have a few issues:
ReplyDelete1. I can't go into Multiplayer if I don't have a full team in Pokestorage. If I have less than six Pokemon, then I'm stuck forever at "getting an opponent" screen.
2. It would be helpful to be able to switch your pokemon moves in Pokestorage. Now if I want to change for example Surf's position from 3 to 2 I have to - relearn a random move to take Surf's place and then - relearn Surf to 2 spot
3. It seems that in Multiplayer battle my Pokemon does it's first move, then second and... it's stuck on using the second for the rest of the battle.
That's all for now I think.
Trainer ID: 1177479
ReplyDeleteI have victini and other pokes. I need shiny zygarde, shiny gible and shiny deino....
also looking for other legendaries! :)
Hi Sam,
ReplyDeletesince you've added Primal Groundon and Primal Kyogre, when are you going to add Mega Rayquaza?
I can get gible for you.
ReplyDeleteHi Sam,
ReplyDeleteanother thing, I think I've found a bug in the Trainer VS. : from time to time the pokemon in the first slot ( the left one ) loses any kind of item you give It, regardless being consumable or not. I've lost two blue orbs this way... Hope you can fix It.
thats not true
ReplyDeleteI think he is asking about will there be something like Ou/UU battle
ReplyDeletemany trainers choose their pokemon to have the move covet
ReplyDeleteAs a matter of fact the opponent may lose but he takes your pokemon item and leaves you with nothing
My Trainer ID: 186004
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for shiny Piplup, shiny Snivy, shiny Glameow, shiny Rufflett
MY mewtwo can't learn bulk up
ReplyDeleteWell even If It is not a bug, I think It would be better for Sam to solve this problem, making the items reappear after the fight ends, otherwise people will lose a lot of items quite difficult to get ( like the blue and red orb ).
ReplyDeleteWhat's the point of spamming this?
ReplyDeleteThe one reason I never use any of my primals or Megas.
ReplyDeleteReread the post.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with the second one.
ReplyDeleteThere are lots of those combinations.
ReplyDeleteWhich victini? Normal shadow or shiny?
ReplyDeletewill be fixing this
ReplyDeletesoon!
ReplyDeletedoes anyone have a charizard x for trd?
ReplyDeletemuch hacks, i see i guy with lvl 150 pokemon. :/
ReplyDeletethanks mate
ReplyDeleteOmg 100 wins for me. All hail shiny victini.
ReplyDeleteGlad to know :) ; thank you.
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear It :) ; looking forward to It.
ReplyDeleteSam when do you thing champion TD's next version will be released?I am very excited.
ReplyDeleteBe wary of item stealers and instant kill moves. They are the ones of ruin.
ReplyDeleteSam can you make in multiplayer an activity which by adding the trainer id you want you can battle with that trainer instead
ReplyDeleteI have charmander with mega stone!! You can level up that!
ReplyDeleteIf you have victini, I will be happy if I traded my reshiram for your victini.

ReplyDeleteAnything is Good for me.
ReplyDeleteWhat are they going to be?

ReplyDeletei saw him too but he wasn;t that good
ReplyDeletethats for ptd2. He wants charizard x for ptd1
ReplyDeletemy mewtwo can't learn bulk up.Why?
ReplyDeletei made them 1270
ReplyDeleteSam, when you add the rewards, you can also add a multiplayer column, which will have in places the players (just like the hof)
ReplyDeletelvl110 primal kyogre,lvl110 primal groudon and lvl 110 rayquaza is very OP.Hope i spelled it right
ReplyDeleteI honeslty did not try that much.I could have got much more but seriously I WAS way TO LAZY.
ReplyDeleteSam I have found a bug in the game. I dont know if it only in multiplayer version or story mode too but the ability teravolt is not working.
ReplyDeleteIt is impossible to do that though.
ReplyDeleteI want to battle you if Sam does that.
ReplyDeletexD
ReplyDeletethe truth is that i lost about 1000 wins due to a friend of mine
Ok
ReplyDeletenot exacly
ReplyDeleteyou can send pokes from prd1 to ptd2 not from ptd2 to ptd1

ReplyDeleteSome of these:
ReplyDeleteMurkrow-Honckrow
Duskull-Dusclops-Dusknoir
Espurr-Meowstic

If you want it for Trainer Vs, it definitely not good choice. My experience.
ReplyDeleteSam, after reaching 1800 wins, when i save it tells me that an error happened
ReplyDeleteis it a bug or am i doing something wrong
My Klefki is killing it lol. 650 wins!
ReplyDeleteWhat is your team? Pretty sure I have beaten it :)
ReplyDeleteYeah I have about 20 mega stones lol
ReplyDeleteI've got 16 blue orbs now.
ReplyDeleteI did see a team of 3 slakings trying hard to get items lol.
That's an easy team to beat. My Klefki has been destroying teams of 110 legendarys.
ReplyDeleteSam I have a question, what is the shiny rate for trainer pass holders? I might get one.
ReplyDeleteTrainer ID: 1177479

ReplyDeleteTrainer ID: 1177479
ReplyDeleteI have victini and other pokes. I need shiny zygarde, shiny gible, shiny bagon and shiny deino....
also looking for other legendaries! :)
zygarde +++ for shiny zygarde
Really, when?
ReplyDeleteSam how does the Trainer VS work do you verse the computer or actual people playing the game?
ReplyDeleteAlso one more thingwhen using stealing moves like thief or covet can you still take the item but the user still has its item there. So if I used covet then I would get that item but the original user would still have its item.
ReplyDeleteTrading my Kyogre and Groudon with blue and red orb for a few of these regulars.
ReplyDeleteIgglybuff, smoochum, magby, azurill, wynaut, happiny
bagon, finneon, phione, scraggy, cubone, remoraid, zangoose,

ReplyDeletei hate finn
ReplyDeleteThe troll is real.
ReplyDeleteGive me Victini please
ReplyDeleteI will give you a shiny hydrogeion ( shiny dieno evolved) ID is 5134977
I remember beating a team like that too.
ReplyDeleteit has all trainers id. It picks 1 randomly and it uses the 3 first pokemon he has
ReplyDeletenot true
ReplyDeletewith covet the item stays
ReplyDeletehowever if you use klefki ability (magician) you are the only one who takes the item
nope
ReplyDeletemy articuno were using sheer cold, my xerneas moon blast and my groudon fissure, so it wasn't me
oh
ReplyDeletewhat mega kuyrem said, it registers your team and then other people play against it, even if you aren't online
ReplyDeleteit's dynamic so it's not a set one but it greatly increases your chance especially if you keep trying
ReplyDeletehmm, still happening?
ReplyDeletea specific example on how it didn't work?
ReplyDeletefixing instant kill moves
ReplyDeletenot anymore
ReplyDeletenow i am in 2575 wins
ReplyDeleteshould i stop?
btw you are so creative. you always find ways to make all your games even better (even when we think they cannot get any)
ReplyDeleteTrainer VS is great. Sam,you create one of the best things.
ReplyDeleteHey Son of Neptune, I will not trade the Victini, but I will offer some spare things for your Growlithe to help you.
ReplyDeleteI'm being dead serious lol. I don't have time for breeding and I have a few extra Kyogres and Groudons and about 20 of each orb.
ReplyDeletedude just leave me alone, last time i met u, u ruined my chance to get a gible.>:( leave me alone!
ReplyDeleteand then what was your team?
ReplyDeleteoh ok
ReplyDelete
