What's there to do in this game?

This is not the "traditional" Pokémon RPG that you remember from your childhood. While you do start out by selecting your first Pokémon from a familiar roster of starters — Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Pikachu, or Eevee. Each starter has a unique attack and HP stat, but unlike previous games, your Pokémon's type won't have a special effect based on the traditional type strengths and weaknesses.

Once you start out, you'll begin exploring the different areas and each starter Pokémon has an early stage area that's designed to be a bit easier for them to ease you into the game. From there, the core mechanics of this game revolve around befriending new Pokémon, adding and upgrading them to your team, then taking your team out on expeditions to find loot and battle wild Pokémon. Each area's difficulty level is represented by a number which you'll compare to your team's power level to determine your chance of success.

Once you're out exploring, your Pokémon engage in battles automatically. It's nothing like the battling found in the other Pokémon RPG's you've played, as you have had limited control over your Pokémon. You are able to tap their special abilities to give your team the edge in even battles, but there's a cooldown timer so you can't just frantically tap your way to victory.

Another core element of the game is the ability to cook meals using different ingredients you'll collect as you play. The meals you cook are unique and will attract different types of Pokémon, so an important aspect of the game will be experimenting at your cooking pot by trying out different recipes and seeing what Pokémon they attract. A good portion of your time playing Pokémon Quest will be spent cooking and upgrading your campsite with fun decorations.

It's a free-to-play adventure

As you might expect, Pokémon Quest will be free-to-play on mobile with in-app purchases likely available to buy more PM tickets, the in-game currency which you can spend on upgrades that cut down on cook time for your recipes along with other upgrades available from the shop.

Will it run on my phone?

The system requirements for Pokémonn Quest are pretty basic, only requiring a phone running Android OS 4.4 or newer and 2GB of RAM meaning this game should work on practically any Android phone released in the past three years with no issues.

When will it be available on Android

The release date is set for June 27, 2018. We'll be sure to update this guide with more detailed information once the game is officially released.
