Choose wisely when to block! You can only deploy a Protect Shield a limited number of times per battle before your Pokémon will be left defenseless. [3/3]

❗ #GOBattle update: Every expert Trainer knows that good defense is key to winning any battle! During Trainer Battles, Trainers can choose to defend against incoming attacks by using a Protect Shield. [1/3]
While this means that Trainers of lower levels will have to wait before they can access this feature, we follow this process to ensure that there are no major disruptions during your #GOBattle experience! [2/2]
Community note: When we release Pokémon GO Trainer Battles, we will be rolling out the feature in stages, starting with level 40 Trainers. We do this so that we can confirm the feature is running smoothly before we begin to release the feature out to more Trainers.
