Pokemon Go is introducing a ranked player versus player (PvP) system into the game. The new ranked battle league is being rolled out to players based on level, so there’s a chance you don’t have access to it yet.

To qualify, you have to get a Basic Go League Battle Pass, which can be obtained from playing five matches. After walking two kilometers, you can skip the remaining 3 kilometers by paying PokeCoins. The first Basic Go League Battle Pass is free, and you won’t have to walk to unlock it. You can unlock three Pokemon Go League Battle Passes per day.

There is a total of ten different ranks in the new Pokemon Go Battle League, which can be found below. Different requirements will need to be hit for each tier of rank.
