Join Trainers across the globe who are discovering Pokémon as they explore the world around them. The newest update to Pokémon GO, the global gaming sensation that has been downloaded 650 million times and named “Best Mobile Game” by The Game Developers Choice Awards and “Best App of the Year” by TechCrunch, introduced the addition of over 80 beloved Pokémon among several other new features.
Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Pikachu, and many other Pokémon have been discovered!
Now’s your chance to discover and capture the Pokémon all around you—so get your shoes on, step outside, and explore the world. You’ll join one of three teams and battle for the prestige and ownership of Gyms with your Pokémon at your side.
Pokémon are out there, and you need to find them. As you walk around a neighborhood, your smartphone will vibrate when there’s a Pokémon nearby. Take aim and throw a Poké Ball… You’ll have to stay alert, or it might get away!
Search far and wide for Pokémon and items
Certain Pokémon appear near their native environment—look for Water-type Pokémon by lakes and oceans. Visit PokéStops, found at interesting places like museums, art installations, historical markers, and monuments, to stock up on Poké Balls and helpful items.
Catching, hatching, evolving, and more
As you level up, you’ll be able to catch more-powerful Pokémon to complete your Pokédex. You can add to your collection by hatching Pokémon Eggs based on the distances you walk. Help your Pokémon evolve by catching many of the same kind. Choose a Buddy Pokémon to walk with and earn Candy that will help you make your Pokémon stronger.
Take on Gym battles and defend your Gym
As your Charmander evolves to Charmeleon and then Charizard, you can battle together to defeat a Gym and assign your Pokémon to defend it against all comers.
It’s time to get moving—your real-life adventures await!

I would rate a five but these darn poke stops aren't working, ever. Had this game a week. All current android and game updates but the stop will spin and nothing ever drops nor do I get a count on my achievement list....and no one is responding to my email on the issue!! The only way to get special evolution items is with a 7 day straight stop count, and I can't even get one. I have an excellent service provider also so, count that out as an issue. Maybe someone will contact me here...maybe

I loved Pokemon go since the beginning but now I had to uninstall it until better progress is made. I hatched 5kilometers eggs and I got under 300cp Pokemon and none of the new ones. A wild bulbasaur cp445 appeared and I used 5 pokeballs, 5 great balls and 5 ultra balls and still didn't get it. All the gyms are level 2000 or more. Stardust is still low as usual and the gyms only give you 10 coins....

Over one million negatives. Congratulations. Loose balls too easily. Need to buy more because it's difficult to get free ones. Foreground app only and will not run in the background. Means that it drains battery quickly and I can't hatch eggs during my runs. And to others that rate it lower stars, like me, App developers don't care.

When will an update include aAR support for phone that have a non gyroscope supported sensory function? So far only phones with gyroscopes have the ability to use the augmented reality, it would be nice to see more funtionality towards this. That would alsoincrease the fanbase exponentially. To see the pokemon on your camera is a base experience that only a small group of people that have these phones can use. Peoplewant it, please deliver! Otherwise, i love this game!!!

Depends on the update and event.. the grass and water events were awesome but this rock Pokemon event is kinda bs. I've only seen 2 Pokemon not registered to the Dex and the rest have been basic 1st gen Pokemon not worth wasting balls on. "Oh you could see an Aerodactyl" Stop hyping and make with the Pokemon
Great to play if you're walking, but there are only four problems I can say exist 1. The GPS signal keeps dropping on me every minute or two. 2. Because you have to actually go outside and walk great distances, children, paraplegics, and others will need someone to walk with them to watch out for them 3. Because many passengers glue themselves to their phones while driving you cant hatch your eggs. & 4. Microtransactions. Why not include a daily/weekly/monthly challenge that offers in game rewards instead?

I got Pokémon Go the second it was released in the U.K it was awesome! Very enjoyable and got thousands of kids and adults out the house. But it's lacking updates it needs something new. Player v player battling, or make the gyms harder to attack with power ups for the different teams who have taken the gym. Make players think a bit. I haven't played for roughly two months now due to not seeing any serious change in the updates.
It's really just cornhole with Pokémon. 3 months after release, I didn't find myself wanting to play the game, rather I would just play it because it was there (not like Fire Emblem Heroes, which I actually have fun with). Pokémon Sun/Moon is a better value... and they're not free to play. I opened the app a year after launch, after not playing for about 2 months, caught a Pidgey and a Spearow, then the app crashed. I lost 5% of my battery and haven't opened it since.
Not the best game when carless in the country. You run out of Pokéballs quickly with a mass stock of potions and revives. But in town with rows of Pokéstops and gyms, it's more fun. I wish it wasn't such a battery drain, even with an external battery pack my battery dies. In the hour I was walking (5/17) I went from 80% to 40%otherwise I still love this game, I'm trying hard to "catch 'em all," and can't wait for my eggs to hatch useful Pokemon.
Very simply: Great game, great idea does great things so I hope it doesn't ever stop, but they need to have a serious look through to find all the bugs and game problems. If they can do that, which, knowing Nintendo, they can do that, this game will be incomparable to any other mobile game out there. One bug that needs to be fixed is that there are times when I am looking for a Pokèmon by walking and then they all disappear.
I live in rural area, but I never see Pokémon. Isn't that where Pokémon are supposed to be? In the "WILD"!!!! I understand that. It is to help get people active, but what about people who live in rural areas? Are they supposed to have to move to play a game? I have been a Pokémon player since before it became an American fad. Please put more Pokémon in rural areas. I walked 2km today and not 1 Pokémon! I have friends in the urban areas that have dozens in their homes.
- still no wild Pokemons around my area which isnt fun for me at all... I've been blocked cause my phone is rooted[more likely to cheat], while other are currently playing. I've seen other users at work playing non-rooted cheat while I could hide my root but isnt that cheating? Fix or be replaced easy as that. #rootlifesmatter
The game is getting pretty boring. Speed caps suck. The buddy system is pretty cool and a lot of the bugs are now fixed and some small new features have been added. The new tracking system leaves a lot to be desired. If it launched with the current tracker no one would know better and I would give it a 5 but I can't pretend I don't know what the 3 step tracker was like.
I can not log on with my pokemon trainer Info since the new update... I've tried all the basic troubleshooting. Restarting my phone, Uninstalling and reinstalling the app, verified my username and password were being put in correct. I even tried to make a new account.. nothing worked and it seems I can't play anymore... very sad
I'm getting ticked that I can't get any of the legendaries, nor any of the regional exclusives. I've waited patiently for a long time. I downloaded this game when it came out, and haven't stopped playing since, but I need more than this, and I don't want to go to the other side of THE PLANET for that to be a reality. Even if the regional exclusives were a yearly event I'd be happy. If you even gave some indication that there'd actually be a legendary event, I'd be happy also. Please! I'm running out of patience..
From someone who grew up around Pokemon, this is definitely worth it in my opinion. I played the games, watched the cartoons, collected the stuffies and obsessed with being the very best. To see the Pokemon that I know and love in 3d is great. Even if it's only for nostalgic reasons, I recommend you at least try this game. All the best gen 1 and 2 Pokemon are in the game but I'll admit to being a little impatient for gen3 to come out. Have fun out there~♡
Would be awesome if we could trade pokemons,items with players of same team... or trade our extra potions for pokeballs (better potions for better balls) and being able to fight/train not only in gyms. Seeing our teammates on the map would add up to the fun. Npc Team rocket jumping us for a fight to gain xp and items/coins
Must PTC accounts go through maintenance so often?? I regretted creating a PTC account to play this game. My friends using Google have no problems logging all the time. But as a PTC account holder, I have to bear with this stupid issue. There are Pokémon alert shared with me and I could not go and catch it. You owe me a Lapras. Stupid Niantic.
AT the beginning i love this game i was mad for it. But i have an big issue the pokestop are so far from my house round about 8 to 9 km. And you guys don't take request for new pokestop. Plz guys provide me a pokestop near my house. I love the game. But if this issue is not solve then i have to delet my a/c and i have to uninstall your game. Because not every time we get more ball to catch in one pokestop we get only 2 to 3 balls so req you to install a new pokestop near to my house. If you solve this problem them i will give you 5 star
I can't seem to find a reasonable answer from niantic for my problem. I've become handicap so when I have spare change, I'll spend 5 dollars to get a few pokeballs. They charged my card twice! And no where to easily contact them to fix a problem. Also ever since they updated the battery saver for android it turns on when my phone is upright so I can only play if my phone is upside down. Until the payment issue I absolutely loved playing.
Since the last 2 updates my phone overheats while playing. This will happen sometimes 40 minutes after playing or other times 10 minutes into the game. I can't seem to even do 2 rounds of gym fights. Thought it was my phone but other online apps and games run for hours without issue.
Pokémon tracking is absurd - the 'nearby Pokémon' aren't actually the pokémon nearest you at all. Pokémon and pokéstops are infrequent in rural and suburban areas. Leveling grinds to an absolute halt at higher levels due to poor game design. Pokémon become much more difficult to catch and flee more frequently at higher levels. Distance traveled tracking is EXTREMELY inaccurate. Basically, the game scales horribly - the daily bonuses that were added are a step in the right direction, but too little.
I'm a big pokemon fan and after waiting for so long for this game to come out I am a bit disappointed. My biggest problem with this game is if you live in a small town, like I do, you won't get to experience this game to its fullest. There is maybe 10 pokestops in my entire town. Some being spaced about a mile apart. I'm just really bummed that I won't get to experience Pokemon Go like others will. Edit: I just upgraded to a Samsung Galaxy s7 and now this game will not load and when it does the GPS is wrong
Recent update totally ruined the game with the inability to utilize the GPS signal rendering the game absolutely useless. Bugs were created, not fixed yet again. Cheaters are popping up more and more and nothing is being done about it. This game is becoming by as bad as any Call of Duty game... Great job Niantic, Inc.
Niantic, you ruined this game in many ways, but the final straw for me was making us unable to spin pokestops while in a car. It is now impossible to collect enough resources to battle in gyms or catch pokemon. As someone who lives in America and not Europe, it's impossible to spend my day walking everywhere. Also, as someone living in Florida, it is eternal summer. And some of us can't handle the heat. We must drive. Your game is now literally useless. YOU DISGUST ME. Thanks for nothing.
I am a true fan so no matter what I love it I just wish that we received more incubators and lucky eggs since the leveling up points are gradually climbing and I can't always be on pokemon and I've bought the pokego plus wrist band that better registers my steps. Over all I love it always will highly addicting and entertaining
Lots of fun. I pick it up and play here and there. Too many people get obsessed with this GAME. That is why you see 1 star reviews because they forget it's a game, not a lifestyle. Rare pokemon are rare for a reason, so yeah expect a lot of common pokemon in your pokedex
I'm A Huge Fan!! But Can You PLEASE, (Please I'm On Meh Knees BEGGIN' Ya' Right Now!!) Make A Daily Event Or Monthly Event, Here!! (Ya' Catching On...?) Cause What About Us Kids Who DON'T Have Wi-Fi?? We Need Dem Balls!! So Please Consider To Say Yes, Thanks 4 listening.
So tired of location spoofers... You report them and still nothing is done.. But heaven forbid you go too fast... These lazy assholes never leave their house to play... But run Gyms up to lvl 10 sitting on their couch... You can see where Niantic priorities are... Another epic fail against hackers... Good job morons
I used to play so much, and collect all my pokeballs when sitting on the bus. Now I can't spin the pokestops when on the bus, so can never collect enough pokeballs to actually be able to play. And I still have issues when trying to battle/train gyms. When the battle loads, it just kicks me out and says "error". Also having an issue where once the game loads it just freezes. Loved this game, but hate all the changes and bugs, makes the game so confusing. Sucks that it's starting to get too annoying to play.
My family and I play this daily, its kind of a part of our everyday routine. I was also wondering if you could add the ability to pull your Pokemon out and take pictures or make them pose in different places. Anyways five stars 😊
This is stupid. My app doesn't work that well at all. Pokemon never just show up even at the pokestops. If i know they are there from another person, i have to close the app completely out and start it again. Please fix! (Im on android). Even with current updates it still wont work!
Everyone should play this game, even non-fans! My friends who have never played a Pokémon game in their life play this game and really enjoy it! I also like this game because it makes me active and talk to other people. Such as this guy in his car yelling "Team Yellow!" to anyone who has their phone out. Also this app does NOT kill people, it's the people who chose to get themselves hurt.
Can't believe the gyms/battles are still basically nonfunctional. Perhaps the game makers are not interested in me being able to earn coins. Hmm. Plus, I just leveled up to level 30-something and barely gained any items. Thanks for the loyalty reward! :D
OMFG! STOP THE FU**ING SPEED LIMITER. I ACTUALLY AM A PASSENGER AND CANT GET POKESTOPS! LET ME COLLECT 10 COINS AFTER EVERY GYM NOT ONCE A DAY! Meanwhile the dominant team in the area gets 100 coins every day and I have to struggle to get 10 or 20. The coin and gym thing is seriously broken. The game is more annoying than fun.
So lots has been added to the game in the year it has been out but the functionality still needs work. Pokestop mechanics are still poor, gps tracking is still very inconsistent and inaccurate at times, also it still suffers from crashes and freezes, hopefully 0.63.1 addresses some of these issues. Despite this, i still play every day and enjoy it.
Where to begin: 1. GPS drift is terrible. More often than not my avatar is not where I am. 2. Whenever I leave the game, even for a moment, and return, the game restarts. Embarrassing. 3. Can't dodge due to great amount of lag 4. There is no reason why I can't play the game as a passenger in a car. I'm running an 808 SoC. More than enough power to play this game. No reason for this many issues.
I love everything about this game with one exception. Niantic's inability to do anything to stop GPS Spoofing has made the game unplayable. The only people still playing in my area all use Spoofers exclusively, and many of them have at least 8 to 10 purchased accounts.
I noticed that I was unable to insert @ and . in the email id. So I am not able to sign in only. This is very bad thing. The Google option also do not appears in signing in. Otherwise I liked this game. I request to do something with it or tell if there is a problem in my phone only. Otherwise I may delete this app
First they couldn't get a functional tracker implimented....Then they hid pokemon to anyone traveling over 30mph even though(I am a passenger) pops up, Now they made it where if your travelling over 30mph you cant spin pokestops..... Amazing how they killed the game for my kids who used to play while I drove, And for myself who used to play while riding as a passenger into work everyday. GOODBYE POGO on to find a better built game where every update doesn't destroy the game a little more. AND CUSTOMER Service doesnt exist. 2months and I am still waiting for a response.. One response from them asking for more information... Provided the information and 2months later still no reply.
