Ratings and reviews

It's what it suggests. Pokémon, on the go. Which is a nice concept, but there are a few problems. Loging in a bunch of times without internet causes the game to create a "log out" button and freeze on the loading screen. If you either don't play until you have network connection again or log out (if you don't remember your password and username, you've basically lost everything) and back in, this needs to be fixed.

I like the game but there are several problems with it. This game is super grindy, and so to compete in raids and tournaments you have to walk outside everyday for a significant amount of time. Time that most adults don't have. Secondly, it gets tiring waling the same routes over and over, I can only walk so far. I suspect this is why many players drop the game after a while. It's just very inconvenient to play consistently.

It's an enjoyable game that I play with my friends. It's got great graphics and GUI for a mobile game, with well thought out features that make the game so incredibly simple, yet so complex at the same time. However, I've run into some problems playing the game quite often. One I DISPISE, in Raids, when I die it will just white screen me. I will be stuck seeing the bosses health, and the time limit. I can't click, I can't fight, I'm just stuck. However, when the raid is complete it works again.
