Showdown:

Pros:

  • Good shortcuts, nice interface
  • Large variety of tiers
  • Very easy to make an account
  • Suggested EV spreads when teambuilding
  • Battling animations, animated sprites, varying music
  • A nice ladder

Cons:

  • Must be online to build a team
  • Server sometimes restarts
  • Lots of usernames taken :P

Pokemon Online:

Pros:
- Nice teambuilder
- Many different servers that are easier to see

Cons:
- Must be downloaded
- Cannot work on mobile
- Common errors with battle mechanics


Overall...

Showdown trumps PO
