Ratings and reviews

Was a great game for a long time. New update is *unplayable* for PvP. Almost every match now has at least one brief, match-losing instance of lag whether you're on wi-fi, 5G data, with or without graphic smoothing, refresh rate setting, emptying cache data, doesn't matter. Stops registering your fast attacks, your taps for charge moves, for just a second, but it's enough to lose you very winnable battles and drive you nuts. Not to mention the full freezes mid-match.

I love this game and have been playing it since it came out. However, after the latest update, the game keeps totally freezing. I can't spin around, I can't tap anything, nothing works. Even closing the game and reopening doesn't fix it. I have to completely uninstall the game and then reinstall it. It gets tedious. I hope a new update fixes it!

I used to really love this game due to the community engagement and connections I've made... However the past two years has been a downwards spiral for the game as a whole, the direction and changes made with the core game only resulted in more unplayable bugs (Being unable to tap screen on load and Pokemon catch screen delays) to stagnant, out of touch changes such as: the Remote Raid changes, Avatar "updates" that any rookie designer could create models 100x better. It's a shame really.
