Does not belong here to be honest.

Not to be rude, but why does it matter? And doesn't the site tell you somewhere? Correct me if I'm wrong.

The rule says that I can ask Showdown! questions.

This question is pretty much impossible to answer because of the amount of people making accounts, but currently there are 16567 accounts online. I'm pretty sure there's no way to know the exact number without asking owner or something.

Also it shouldn't be here. this question isnt useful

It does not belong in here. The rules says you can ask Showdown! questions but make them relevant and useful. No-one except Showdown! admins and developers themselves could tell you.

Answer 1

According to http://pokemonshowdown.com/userstats , there are currently 49,059 active accounts.

this doesnt answer the question.

this DOES answer the most relevant part of the question. I'm not interested in knowing there's 2556776 abandonned, inactive accounts. What matters is those who still play the game. If asker is not satisfied with this, I'd be genuinely surprised.
