Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Pikachu, and many other Pokémon have been discovered on planet Earth! 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.
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!
