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.
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!

Great game Even tho many Pokemon I have not seen never pop out at any giving time let alone hatch like I would expect. too many weedles rattat pidgey etc. I pick charmander as my first never encountered another since first downloaded same as look for trades with players in of range at gyms don't need to know who the person is but an accept invite for trading would be best and fit for players hospitals should be automatically poke center to revive and heal pokemon to full potential and poke coins should be double

Love it 😉 Great game.. loved pokemon on Nintendo so of course i love this. And i love that this motivates me to get out and get walking. A few bugs lately... pokestops always saying try again later.. but bugs are expected in such a large game. Would absolutely love another event where its only 750 metres for candy 😆 and trades would be amazing! Keep it up 😊

Could be Better Ive been playing since it came out, and it's a great game. But the recent update where you're shown where the pokemon are in the Sightings means they're only centered around pokemon gyms and pokestops. In my neighborhood, I have one pokestop two blocks away and I cant get data for my phone. If you can only catch pokemon around gyms and stops now, it severely limits where I can go to catch pokemon.

Think this was the last straw. I really wish Niantic was not the company developing this game. It has gone from a game that gets the family up and play to we just play while we're out to now it's drive to a large city for any chance of finding anything. Tracking is only good if you are near a city. Hopefully a branch/clone of this game is made where it's readily available without traveling to higher crime areas for a game.

Nearby system is so so... The game is a lot of fun and if you want to find new places in your city or town you have to play. The game becomes a heavy grind as you begin to get closer to filling your pokedex, and you need to hope on the slim chance you will encounter these epic catches in the wild or hatching them from 10k eggs. It is very disappointing though that you can't search for a pokemon that you want though your pokedex. That would make for a great hunt. Hope they can get something that is better than 3rd party competition.

Bugs out alot Keeps saying try again when I go to pokestops. My eggs are taking forever to hatch but I'm getting candies from my buddy perfectly fine. My player randomly will stay in one place for a while even though continued to walk. The bugs are not a huge but when there are so many of them all the time, it makes it so hard to want to keep playing.

Gotta catch em all! Still think there needs to be some tweaking to the decisions of what's a Pokestop what with the "why is this a Pokestop it's not a historical place or a monument" or "you can't be here this public place is 'private property'" (If you aren't the owner of the property there's "nothing can be done")... This game is STILL awesome. It takes me back to my childhood when red/blue/yellow came out.... Now I can go and be the very best, and catch em all!
Installed it,rated it,love it😍 This game is so much fun it even helped me explore more places. From the start, charmander,bulbasaur and squirtle and now exagguter,raichu and snorlax. Anyway i cant wait for generation 2 and can u pls put that nearby list quickly in malysia coz i really wanna see what pokemon r in what pokestop anyway pls pls pls put itquickly in malaysia coz im from malaysia
Well congratulations Niantic, you just ruined the game for me with the pokestop speed lock. As someone who cannot drive or walk any real distance without pain my only source of items was pokestops spun on the bus. Having put money into this game in the past I can say with reasonable certainty unless things change pronto you won't be seeing any more money from me.
Really neat, but... Long story short: You can't level your pokes by battling wild pokemon. You can train at friendly gyms... if you can beat the 2500+ CP pokes that are guarding it. Seriously. It's a fantastic game and great concept but with no way to grind out levels for your Pokémon by battling, it's just a collecting game without any progression. *Devs, if you're reading this, battling wild pokes to level your own pokes is pretty much a requirement for a Pokémon game. Please add this. Also change gym training.*
The new system stinks Even though it encourages safety it removes the point of exercise and takes away the fun of the hunt...for pokemon. The system reduces any chance of catching because of pokestop locations and how rare pokestops are to a certainty of people. The purpose of this game was to get the pokemon finding vibe,right? trainers don't sit in locations to catch pokemon nor do they go in circles. so if this doesn't change,the true trainers shall suffer
Why change CP?? This game is amazing, but I had to change my rate on it. I understand wanting to make other pokemon stronger to add more variety to gyms and what not, but I'm fairly upset. I'm level 21 and had a good deal of pokemon I had planned to evolve to have significantly stronger final evolutions, and now they are all super low in CP. I've seen jumps between 100-200 points in CP, which is dramatically effecting my original plan. I'm sure I'm not the only one who may be upset. Why not just make them all stronger?
❤ 7/7/16:I was really excited to play this only to get the "Our servers are currently down" message. Please please please fix!! 7/18/16: Now it doesn't even load after clicking my log in form. C'mon!! I waited for a really long time for it to load and it never did so i pressed the x and tried it again and guess what? NOTHING. Fix this PLEASE! 11/21/16: See now I love it since it's fixed.
Amazing game! But having some issues lately.... Love this game but just recently I've been having some issues with my account. My Pokémon aren't the same CP they were just a couple of days ago and I haven't upgraded them. Some are higher and some are lower than they were if that can be fixed that would be great! Put a lot of time into playing this game and don't wanna have to upgrade some Pokémon back to where they were. If you can somehow reset them back to how they were that would be awesome! Thank you!
Amazing game Lots of fun and cool concept a few bugs and lag but you can expect that with a fast paced real time game. Very different from other pokemon games but still exciting. Large selection of gen 1 pokemon and cool mechanics. The 2D world is colorless and boring and maps should be updated more often. Great overall but the grind is tough.
Best game ever! Really social and gets you moving. The new nearby pokestops tracker is great. It would be even better to still see the mons not near the stops though. My only gripe is without being able to collect from pokestops as a passenger in a moving vehicle is i never have enough balls which really ruins the fun. It would be great to balance that with extra balls from the stops when walking. Still brilliant fun though!
Started good, now it sucks They keep making changes to make it harder and harder. Now lower speed to hatch eggs, harder to power up friendly gyms but easy to take opponents, cp on pokemon lowered, most pokestops say try again later, still having curveball throws without actually throwing curveballs, and even more. This was a fun game but now I barely play it since they keep changing to make it suck even more.
Great for most people Takes a 15 min drive to get to closest Pokestop because I live in a rural area. So haven't had poke balls in months. Not much you can do with this app when you can't catch anything. Wish they would make some of the churches in our area Pokestops but I guess I'm asking too much.
Pokemon go is enjoyable It does its job at being fun and interactive, but falls short at fixing game breaking bugs. The qaulity is impressive and gameplay is as expected. All the community is asking is that updates make the game better not filled with more problems, we hope to spend more and more in a game we love so much. Niantic please fix the cp glitch thank you
Getting better and better This game is fun, walking around finding and catching Pokémon is very addicting and a great motivator for getting outside. Combat could still use some work though. Gym training needs to be restored to +500 prestige per victory, training is way too slow. No one is going to sit around and train for 30 minutes so they can add 1 Pokémon to a gym that can be taken out in 10 minutes.
It's OK - if you live in a City. EDIT: Seems the last update was a temporary thing. Normal service has resumed. Back to 3*. Latest update seems to have finally brought pokemon to rural areas. It's an absolute breath of fresh air and is a VAST improvement! Now they only need to create more Pokestops and Gyms in rural areas and countryside life is complete!.. Now if only the radar was improved..
Plz fix I love this game. Plz fix its compatibility with the polemon go. Before the last update it worked fine. Once in a while i had to restart the game and reconnect to the go but only like after about 2 hrs so it seemed. But now it only seems to work for about 10 mins and sometimes when it connects, it says pokemon go has stopped and others it will take many tries just to connect. Plz fox these issues.
It was better before the updates. It would be better if a wider variety of pokemon could be found but it seems like I only see the same ones, even when I go to different cities. Also, it stalls and restarts my phone occasionally. And now that you don't get points for pokestops if your bag is full, I guess we don't have to play as often...but why make the game less engaging?
No pokestops in a 50 km radius of 3 large towns? Wtf I live in a town with the a pretty large population that plays this game. With surrounding towns that visit often. And we have no buildings or pokestops within a 50km radius of our towns. Not even the Surrounding 2 towns with the same population Have a pokestop. This needs to be fixed. We all stopped playing this game for this reason.
I don't know why they're dumbing this game down it was made for five year olds Too little too late. Less than half the people I know that used to play have been willing to wait around for this game to get out of beta (which it most definitely still is in, check that version number bruh). Was mildly entertaining while it lasted but replaying Crystal for the third time has so far proven to be more fun. Still no trainer battles. Still no trading. Still in beta.
Super fun and addicting! One problem for me though.... My 7 year old and I LOVE playing this game. We have been playing since July and have enjoyed it thoroughly. However, after the Pokéstop speed update, we cannot hit even an 1/8 of the stops we used to. Even when my son has my phone and clicks the, 'I am a passenger' button, he still cannot hit the stops due to me driving. I do understand you are trying to keep people safe. Then again, there ARE players who ARE safe, so I ask that you remove that or we may have to stop playing... 😔
LOVE IT, BUT SUGGESTIONS. You guys should really add a way to send items and Pokémon to other players. Me and my friends really need this! Thanks! Also please add a compass pointing to the pokemon from your locations, with rings showing how far away or something back in so you can track down the Pokémon down instead of wandering around, hoping you come across it, please! Thank you, bye!
Massive issues with Pokemons CP This is a fun little game that manages to get me moving. The updates have, on the whole, been fine and have not detracted from the game. However, I've recently found that a lot of my Pokemon's CP has either drastically increased or decreased. Niantic, can you please find a way of restoring the original CPs? Will not be playing this much until it's addressed as I was planning on doing lots of evolutions tonight to clear my Pokemon storage and will not be evolving with the drastic decreases in those Pokemon.
Please tweak Tracker Please add back in the functionality of being able to see "nearby" Pokémon instead of solely at Pokestops. I can't see any mons roaming through my neighborhood anymore and have no reason to bolt out my door at 2am in my boxers to catch that Snorlax right outside my apartment. I was getting pretty good at tracking down nearby mons and have been walking 2-3 miles every day playing Go. Please add tabs or multiple windows to the tracker. Thanks for being more transparent and listening to the community.
Love it This is a fun app, that gets you out of the house, and exploring your neighborhood. Even if you arent a fan of pokemon, you can have fun catching these cute critters and discovering historic landmarks, and parks, and other things right outside your window you may have never noticed before. Fun for the whole family too! Its a great way to get the kids (or grandkids) out for a nice walk. As for the game itself, it had a rocky start but it has found its feet and there are very few If any issues.
Great game Gets ya out of the house, at first it was full of glitches and bugs but now its a fun and reliable game. My only problem is I havent enough time to advance through the game at the rate I want. But thats not the games fault. I highly reccomend this game wether or not you are a pokemon fan like myself. You will enjoy catching your very own pocket monsters and making them stronger.
It was fine till today I love this game and I've been playing since it came out in the UK but today when I loaded into the game and was getting ready to evolve some Pokémon, I found that their CP had changed. The other day I got a psyduck at a CP of 666 and when I checked today it's CP has dropped. What the hell is going on with that and is it just my account or has anyone else had this happen?
Still liking it, though much more casually With it being colder, still playing, just a lil less. Also, and I'm not even sure if this is the place to ask, but is there any news on the tracking feature coming back? That was one of the best things, seeing a pokemon's silhouette in nearby and then frantically trying to triangulate it's position
Great Game! Minor Adjustments. First things first: Dear Players Having CP Issues, it is part of the update. Google it. I love this game! I've been playing it since it came out and I've had a great time playing it. The CP change in the new update was bittersweet. I finally have a 1000CP pokemon though! I would love to see a better tracking system because I only have 1 Pokestop near my house. Trading would be very much appreciated! Also, PvP, Battling to catch pokemon, Poke centers, and making it harder to take down gyms would be great!
Decent game Decent game, with potential, but man do developers know how to drop a ball. At first the game has relatively good tracking which is essential, now it doesn't have any. I'm near a good amount of pokestops but I can imagine if people weren't, item collection would be a hassle. It doesn't register correct walking distance. I've been trying to hatch this 5k egg for 5 years. And now since Pokestops don't spin half the time I have to spend money to get balls. A plus is I'm digging the events.
No ponyta.... I love this game, however, ever since I downloaded it I always said how I really just want a ponyta /rapidash. It was my favorite Pokémon since I was little, it just was. Anyway, I'm giving this one star because out of the several months I've been playing, all of my friends (and I mean all of them) have either A.) hatched one B.) caught one. I on the other hand have yet to hatch anything of the sort nor have I seen one to catch. I'm convinced Pokémon is out to destroy my dream
Game is spiraling down I was in love with the thought of this game, and loved it when it started. But the game is consistently going down hill. After each "improvement update" it limits you even more and more. You can't even be "a passenger" and play now, no longer can see pokemon nearby or get stops if moving to fast. The only way to play is to literally only walk now. Then what is the point of "I'm a passenger" button now? It is not your obligation to keep people off their phone driving, there is already laws for that.
Love the new quests! : ! I love this game. I have finnaly became level 19 and I cant wait for a rarer pokemon. Like charzard or somthing. I only have one problem. I know the game creators are doing there best but AR MODE does not work for me. If they could fix this , THAT WOULD BE AMAZING. I MEAN THE FACT OF SEEING POKEMON IN THE REAL WORLD IS JUST SOOOO COOL!!! Also, when ever im walikng or even sitting it tells me im going to fast and tells me im driving. Omg. I also love the new buddy system. Charmander and me walking around.
Why There are no pokestops in catterick (England) except in army barracks, so I pretty much can't play the game! Only 1 star until I get something near my house. Also, I think that WILD pokemon should be easier to find in the WILD. Love the game, but please make it possible to play.
Need player battles Game needs a trainer vs trainer mode on the go maybe use of nfc to trade and battle locally without gyms and a pokemon hunt game period on some days like a safari zone event for rare pokemon at parks would be awesome these are great ideas use them so can have fun thanks yo !
