Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be somewhat time-consuming, as it requires training and winning matches to acquire items. However, the process is generally considered enjoyable due to the opportunity for team experimentation.
“Building your team in this game is really neat since there's a lot of room to experiment. However, it can be a bit grindy as you need to spend a significant amount of time training them and winning matches to obtain items.”
