To determine the Pokémon sent out by a CPU Trainer against the player, each of the CPU Trainer's three Pokémon is given a score. There are two scoring methods, which are chosen at random: the offensive method and defensive method. Both methods compare the type affinity of the Pokémon's damaging attacks against each of the three Pokémon on the player's team. In the offensive method, 2 points are awarded if the attack is normally effective, 4 if super effective, and 8 if 4× super effective. In the defensive method, 2 points are awarded if the attack is resisted, 4 if 4× resisted, and 8 if ineffective. 2 points are deducted if super effective, and 4 are deducted if 4× super effective. No points are awarded or deducted in any other scenario. For the purposes of this calculation, type matchups that are not super effective against Pokémon with {{a|Wonder Guard}} are ignored (no points are awarded or deducted), and {{type|Ground}} attacks are considered to be neutral against Pokémon with {{a|Levitate}}. | To determine the Pokémon sent out by a CPU Trainer against the player, each of the CPU Trainer's three Pokémon is given a score.

If all three Pokémon tie in the second method, then two Pokémon and the order they appear are chosen at random. Otherwise, the two highest-scoring Pokémon are chosen (if there is a tie for the second selection, the second selection of Pokémon is chosen at random). There is a 40% chance that the CPU Trainer will lead off with the higher-scoring Pokémon, and a 60% chance of leading off with the lower-scoring Pokémon. | ||

The Battle Dome appeared in ''[[AG153|Tactics Theatrics!!]]''.

In the Battle Dome, challengers have to defeat the Dome Ace in a [[Double Battle]]. They are given the possibility of swapping their [[party]] Pokémon with ones they have in storage after the [[Frontier Brain]] has revealed his Pokémon. After a tough match, Ash managed to defeat Tucker using his {{AP|Corphish}} and {{AP|Swellow}}. This victory gave Ash the [[Symbol|Tactics Symbol]], his third Frontier Symbol overall. | In the Battle Dome, challengers have to defeat the Dome Ace in a [[Double Battle]].

The Battle Dome first appeared in ''[[PS319|Verily Vanquishing Vileplume I]]'', where {{adv|Emerald}} challenged it as his fifth Battle Frontier facility during the Battle Frontier's seven-day opening ceremony. Due to the tournament-style structure of the challenge, {{pkmn|Trainer}}s were shipped from the [[Hoenn]] mainland over to the Battle Frontier to participate in it to avoid endless {{pkmn|battle}}s between computer-controlled virtual Trainers. Amongst the participating Trainers were {{adv|Ruby}} and {{adv|Sapphire}}, who tried to make friends with Emerald, much to his annoyance. | The Battle Dome first appeared in ''[[PS319|Verily Vanquishing Vileplume I]]'', where {{adv|Emerald}} challenged it as his fifth Battle Frontier facility during the Battle Frontier's seven-day opening ceremony.

The battle was observed by most of the other Frontier Brains. As soon as it had ended and Emerald had headed off to challenge the [[Battle Palace]], Tucker noticed [[Guile Hideout]] outside the window, and [[Noland]] was informed that {{adv|Jirachi}} had been sighted on the Battle Dome rooftop. The Frontier Brains rushed to the rooftop, but arrived too late to stop Guile from {{pkmn2|caught|capturing}} Jirachi for his evil schemes. | The battle was observed by most of the other Frontier Brains.

In ''[[PS337|Epilogue]]'', after Emerald had managed to obtain all six other [[Symbol]]s, he realized that he only had one day left to earn the Tactics Symbol. While the Battle Dome was still operable, despite the damage that Guile Hideout had caused to the Battle Frontier, the challenge required a group of Trainers to form a tournament. To everyone's surprise, {{adv|Red}} suggested a tournament between the ten [[Pokédex holder]]s, which [[Scott]] happily accepted.

By the end of the chapter, Emerald was shown to have earned the Tactics Symbol, indicating that he had won the tournament and thus successfully completed his seven-day Battle Frontier challenge. | ||

The Battle Dome appeared in ''[[CBF4|Introducing the Frontier Brains!]]''. After learning about [[Frontier Brain]]s, {{OBP|Enta|CBF}} decided to challenge each of them, starting at the Battle Dome. After achieving a long-enough win streak, Enta came face to face with Tucker, who challenged him to a [[Double Battle]]. After a tough match, Enta was able to defeat Tucker with his {{TP|Enta|Vulpix}} and {{p|Feebas}}. At first, Tucker was unwilling to admit that Enta could've beaten him with a Pokémon as ugly as Feebas, but he changed his mind when Feebas evolved into {{p|Milotic}}. | The Battle Dome appeared in ''[[CBF4|Introducing the Frontier Brains!]]''.

==Trivia== | |||
* Due to a programming bug, the {{IV}}s of Pokémon belonging to NPC Trainers in the Battle Dome do not increase based on the player's win streak. As a result, all Pokémon fought in this facility will have 3 IVs in each stat. | |||
** This excludes Tucker's Pokémon, who have 20 IVs in each stat for the Silver Symbol challenge, and 31 IVs in each stat for the Gold Symbol challenge. | |||
