Hello, please don't make new threads for asking questions. Use this thread instead. I've moved the post here but you should definitely give the PS forum rules a read before posting again here (in fact, it's a good idea to read the rules before posting in any forums actually).So I just got a phone that's good enough to have Facebook messenger and I wanted to know if the showdown app is still alive and kicking since I can't find it in the app store and thought maybe I had to download it somewhere and then put it on my phone.
Is that the case or should I just use my browser to play on my phone?
As for the PS app. There's no official app but there is a third party app here: http://www.smogon.com/forums/thread...ilable-showdown-app-for-android-beta.3526473/
Also, PS has somewhat recently made changes to make the PS mobile UI better and I prefer the browser version for chatting. I've never played battles in the app (i didn't like the way it looked at all so i just deleted it after i looked at the chat) so I can't tell you which is better but the battling in the PS browser version is pretty decent from what I remember. I'd recommend the browser version over the app because that's actually PS affiliated and looks better in general imo.
