Welcome to Subeta! Looks like you've gotten a LOT done in your first days here already :D Don't be a stranger if you've any questions!
The battle system is a little complicated if you really want to get into it, I suggest heading over to the battle forums. There are HEAPS of guides and there's also a chat thread where people are happy to help out. For starters I'd get started on training your pet in Riverside Valley (https://subeta.net/explore/train.php) Bringing their stats up will help you no matter how heavy you plan to get into battling (since occasionally battling is included in plots or site events, it doesn't hurt to have at least one pet with a little more than the basic stats)
There are some affordable items that can help you win against opponents, but the chat or the guides will probably best help you out :)
Otherwise if you have any questions, feel free to just holla and someone will know an answer or maybe suggest where you might be able to seek it :D
