How To Add Friends
3 Ways To Add Friends
| 1 | Using the Player ID |
|---|---|
| 2 | Via Nintendo Account Screen |
| 3 | After a match |
1. Get Their Player ID
You can ask your friends for their Player ID and use it to find them in the Friend Menu. The Player ID is a 7-character code that can be viewed by going to the Trainer Info Screen. Added friends must confirm your friend request first before you can see them on the Friends screen!
Cannot Search Via Trainer's Name
Unfortunately, players cannot be searched with only their Trainer name & therefore cannot be added. The Player ID is essential to be able to search and add other players.
How To Find Player ID2. Via Nintendo Account Screen
If you already have friends tied to your Nintendo Account, you can easily add them using the "Add Friend" function under "Friend Search". You can add your Friends here so you can easily invite for games.
3. Add New Friends After A Match
You can add new players to your Friends List via the post-game screen. Navigate to the scoreboard and highlight a player. Once highlighted, press "A" to open a menu. Select "Add Friend" to send a Friend Request.
Chat With Friends
You can communicate with friends using the in-game text chat. However, you must play at least 5 games first in order to be able to chat with each other.

Players can also play with other trainers without needing to add them. Simply enter into the same lobby to play with each other. To do this, you need to have their Lobby ID which can be found on the top-left of the host's room.
Search The Lobby ID In The Lobby Search
After obtaining the Lobby ID, simply write them on the Lobby Search Located on the bottom right of the main screen above the Unite Battle Button.
