>>57149362I actually went and compared regulation fields in several sports with a friend for some scale. An interesting fact she pointed out was that "gunfights in Rainbow Six Siege take place up to about ten metres". Double that to give the Trainers and Pokémon some reasonable breathing room. Then we looked up a few field regulations for scale:
>baseball diamonds are 90 square feet, from base to base, while the pitcher's mound is 60ft (18m) from home plate (MLB)>apehoop courts are 94ft (28.65m) across (NBA)>FIFA recommends 105m (344.4ft) across × 68m (223.1ft) wide for divegrass fields>handegg fields measure 360ft (109.75 m) long × 160ft (48.8 m) wide (NFL)We reasoned that most maneuvering could take place across the width of the field instead of the length, and making the field wider would be a natural accommodation for double/triple/rotation battles anyway, so for leagues that use standard mechanics (i.e., no Megas, Tera, Dynamax) - Gens I-V, basically, 40 x 60m would be a safe bet. A league with Dynamaxing would probably not only require a divegrass field in size or more, but also some headsets / loudspeakers to project the trainers' commands if there's no alternative system to convey them (like how casino cheaters might use hidden implements to send touch signals to their accomplices at other tables).
>spoilerThat's a good question. I'll have to come up with some of my own.
