Batomon Showdown combines monster collecting with automated PvP battles

Berrymint has launched Batomon Showdown, pitched as 'Pokémon meets Super Auto Pets.' Players tame monsters for squads that fight other players' teams automatically, without live matches. Each run starts by picking one of three trainers for a passive bonus, then building around rarity levels, types such as fire, toxic, flying and rock, and faction bonuses.
