Battle Notes Best Practices
Be Consistent - Log every battle during your session. Partial data gives incomplete insights. The more battles you track, the more accurate your meta analysis becomes.
Record Immediately - Log battles right after they finish while the details are fresh. This ensures accuracy and builds a complete battle history.
Track Your Team Changes - When you swap team members, create a new team entry. This lets you compare performance between different team variations and identify which tweaks actually improve your results.
Monitor Multiple Formats - Keep separate battle logs for Great League, Ultra League, and special cups. Each format has unique meta trends worth tracking independently.
📊 Meta Analysis: Decode the Competitive Landscape
Battle Notes capture your battles—Meta Analysis transforms that data into actionable intelligence. This is where BattleFlow turns raw battle logs into strategic advantages.
What Is Meta Analysis?
Meta Analysis is BattleFlow’s advanced analytics system that processes your battle history (and the broader community’s data) to reveal exactly what’s working in competitive Pokémon GO PVP. It’s like having a professional analyst breaking down the meta for you after every battle session.

Lead Performance Insights: Your Secret Weapon
One of Meta Analysis’s most powerful features is Lead Performance Insights—advanced analytics showing how YOUR leads perform against common opponent leads.
What Lead Insights Show:
Matchup Win Rates - See your actual performance with each lead against the meta’s top leads. Did you win 70% of your Lanturn vs. Azumarill leads? The data knows.
Favorable vs. Unfavorable Matchups - Instantly identify which leads work well for you and which struggle. This helps you make informed decisions about team building and battle strategy.
Common Opponent Type Distributions - Understand the type coverage you’re facing most frequently. If you’re seeing Water-types in 40% of leads, you better have an answer ready.
Performance by Pokémon - Get granular data showing:
- Your wins vs. losses with each lead
- Win rate percentage against meta threats
- Type matchup strengths and weaknesses
- Actual battle outcomes vs. expected matchups
This intelligence helps you answer critical questions:
- Should I keep running Medicham as my lead in Great League?
- Why do I keep losing the lead matchup with Talonflame?
- Which of my leads has the best overall performance against the current meta?
Team Building Insights
Meta Analysis doesn’t just show you data—it gives you actionable advice:
- Counter Recommendations - Based on what you’re facing, get suggestions for Pokémon that counter prevalent threats
- Meta Trend Analysis - See if certain Pokémon are rising or falling in usage over time
- Coverage Optimization - Identify type coverage gaps in commonly faced teams and build your team to exploit them
