These forums could use a new space wholly dedicated to Pokémon Champions / turn-based team building

The issue

Been registered on this community for a while, but only starting to actively read and post. I find these forums a bit strange, hard to navigate. Some spaces have names that seem to be very self-explanatory, but the posts I find in them are usually off-topic.

I think many people are currently lacking some sort of dedicated space to discuss Pokémon Champions, or video game teambuilding / RMT as a whole, and so they post elsewhere.

Granted, it wouldn't be realistic to have a whole forum for every Pokémon game ever, but Champions is a live service and it's meant to last for many years. Perhaps the admins could consider supporting it in some capability? Or at least making it a bit more obvious within the Pokémon Organized Play forum.

The fix?

I am but a newbie here but if it were in my hands, maybe as a starting point, I'd do something just like the other games have at the moment.

  • Community Lounge
  • Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
  • Pokémon TCG
  • Pokémon TCG Pocket
  • Pokémon Unite
  • Pokémon Champions
    • News & Announcements
    • General Pokémon Champions discussion (maybe with a couple of fresh tags for RMT posts, rental codes and meta discussion / league results analysis?)
    • Strategy & Tactics
    • Pokémon Champions Bugs & Feedback
  • Pokémon Organized Play
  • Help & Feedback Center

Sorry if my post feels redundant or out of place. Just trying to contribute to a better environment.

    Tbh I think Champions is fine the way it is. If you want to talk Champions there are channels of creators that you can join and as they play you can chat.

    It seems to me like the entire forum needs organising and categorising better every game needs it's own page and each game page should have different categories for topics of conversation, a page for ideas and feedback a page for general discussions, another for complaints rants and bugs, and whatever other topics they can think of, I was looking for a place for Pokémon tcg live discussions and ideas, it would be good to see what ideas people have for the games and also see if any what future updates are planned, but this site is difficult to navigate it must be just as overwhelming for the game Devs aswell feedback and ideas are valuable to the creators to help them make better games I don't know how they manage to read through this disorganised mess

    But TCG Live, Pocket, and Unite all have their own forums, so why not Champions? It also makes offering feedback/bug reports harder because there's not a dedicated space to post it - the known bugs threads get updated periodically but not super frequently, so it's harder to gauge what's been brought up via support tickets vs not at a glance.

    I also think that encouraging users here to leave the forum is not an ideal solution to wanting to discuss official Pokemon content….on an official Pokemon forum.

    The forums is not for tech support. The official website is for that

    You have a point on the second part. We want more people to join. But I don't want what happened with TCG Live section and Unite section to happen again right now.

    I agree with you.
