Rental Teams

Introduced in Generation 7, rental teams are a new way for players to share the team that they have created, however in Sword & Shield, you can now use that team in Ranked Battle and Online Competitions. You have 5 slots within which to save a Rental Team

To download a Rental Team, all you have to do is go to the Battle Stadium and go to Rental Teams, enter a code for a Rental Team and you can put it in one of the five slots. Alternatively, you can share your own teams and get a code to share it out. This makes it publicly online so anyone can use the team if they have the code

In the Battle Tower, there is a man who will give out five different Rental Teams to you if you do so wish. These are to give all players a way to get a handle on competitive play and are teams focused on various competitive elements

• Basic Team - A standard team
• Skill Team - A team for more skilled players
• Tough Team - A team that hits hard but has more strategy to it
• Rain Team - A team for Double Battles focused on Rain
• Slow Team - A team for Double Battles focused on Trick Room
